	* IT++ 3.9.0 released (CVS tag: release-3-9-0)

2005-12-28  Adam Piatyszek  <ediap@users.sourceforge.net>

	* itpp/base/mat.h, itpp/base/vec.h: Added a `value_type' typedef,
	which provides a similar notation to the std::vector<> class.
	Requested by Christian Stimming in patch report [1387075].

	* doc/local/index.doc.in: `https://' links changed to `http://'
	ones

	* itpp/base/parser.cpp: Implemented feature request [1167378]. An
	error message is displayed if the Parser's init() functions can
	not open a file.

	* extras/itload.m, extras/itsave.m, extras/Makefile.am,
	Makefile.am, configure.ac: Added missing `itload.m' and `itsave.m'

	testers

	* NEWS: Updated to reflect recent changes

	* itpp/base/transforms.cpp, tests/transforms_test.ref: Fixed bug
	[1388024]. Both versions of fft_real() and ifft_real() functions
	(based on FFTW3 and MKL) worked differently than the reference
	Matlab's fft()/ifft() functions. It seems to be fixed now, but an
	additional code overhead was added.

2005-12-22  Erik G. Larsson  <erik_g_larsson@users.sourceforge.net>

	* tests/gf2mat_test.cpp: New short test program for GF2mat class

2005-12-22  Adam Piatyszek  <ediap@users.sourceforge.net>

	* tests/*.cpp, tests/*.ref: Fixed some of the test programs when

	3.9.0 release

	* doc/local/index.doc.in: Added "What's New" links to the NEWS and

	full one

	* itpp/config_msvc.h: Updated due to recent modifications of the
	configure.ac file. Undefined HAVE_CBLAS, HAVE_FFTW and
	HAVE_LAPACK, since HAVE_MKL is defined.

	* itpp/comm/error_counters.cpp, itpp/comm/error_counters.h:
	Changed `long' to `int', since they have the same size on most
	32-bit platforms. Fixed bugs in `if' statements (lack of casting
	to `short').

	* NEWS: Updated to include recent changes
	* configure.ac: Updated version number and fixed header files'
	checks

	Removed unnecessary include preprocessor commands

	* itpp/base/elmatfunc.cpp, itpp/base/elmatfunc.h,
	itpp/base/scalfunc.cpp, itpp/base/scalfunc.h: Added
	`round_to_zero()' function, which rounds arguments below a certain
	threshold to zero. This function is useful for test programs.
	* tests/Makefile.am: Reverted to revision 1.7
	* tests/*.cpp, tests/*.ref: Updated test programs to make them
	robust for precision differences on various platforms.

2005-12-20  Adam Piatyszek  <ediap@users.sourceforge.net>

	* tests/Makefile.am: Added support for redesigned tests, which
	should be more robust to negligible precison errors, ie.
	plus/minus zero.
	* tests/pulse_shape_test2.cpp, tests/pulse_shape_test2.ref:
	Redesined tests of pulse shaping classes added.

	* itpp/comm/error_counters.cpp, itpp/comm/error_counters.h: Error
	and correct bit/packet counters are now of `double' type instead
	of `long'.

	* configure.ac, itpp/base/lapack.h: Fixed bug [1385960]. Although
	the MKL library was detected properly, the IT++ compilation failed
	on files that use `itpp/base/lapack.h'. The patch attached to the
	bug-report fixes this problem.

2005-12-19  Adam Piatyszek  <ediap@users.sourceforge.net>

	* itpp/base/specmat.cpp, itpp/base/specmat.h: Cosmetic changes -

2005-12-13  Adam Piatyszek  <ediap@users.sourceforge.net>

	having reported this problem and solution for it.

2005-11-25  Adam Piatyszek  <ediap@users.sourceforge.net>

	way of including header files. File comments addapted to the IT++
	standard.
	* itpp/itbase.h: Included `gf2mat.h'.
	* tests/Makefile.am: Commented out gf2mat_test program, since it
	is prepared in a different way than the standard IT++ testing

	created.

2005-11-11  Adam Piatyszek  <ediap@users.sourceforge.net>

	* itpp/comm/error_counters.{h,cpp}: BLERC class improved by adding
	setup and clear flags and non default constructor. Now it is
