1 Purpose

e04nd is the AD Library version of the primal routine e04ndf. Based (in the C++ interface) on overload resolution, e04nd can be used for primal, tangent and adjoint evaluation. It supports tangents and adjoints of first order.

2 Specification

Fortran Interface
Subroutine e04nd_AD_f ( ioptns, lwsav, iwsav, rwsav, inform)
Integer, Intent (In) :: ioptns
Integer, Intent (Inout) :: iwsav(610)
Integer, Intent (Out) :: inform
ADTYPE, Intent (Inout) :: rwsav(475)
Logical, Intent (Inout) :: lwsav(120)
Type (c_ptr), Intent (Inout) :: ad_handle
Corresponding to the overloaded C++ function, the Fortran interface provides five routines with names reflecting the type used for active real arguments. The actual subroutine and type names are formed by replacing AD and ADTYPE in the above as follows:
when ADTYPE is Real(kind=nag_wp) then AD is p0w
when ADTYPE is Type(nagad_a1w_w_rtype) then AD is a1w
when ADTYPE is Type(nagad_t1w_w_rtype) then AD is t1w
C++ Interface
#include <dco.hpp>
#include <nagad.h>
namespace nag {
namespace ad {
void e04nd ( handle_t &ad_handle, const Integer &ioptns, logical lwsav[], Integer iwsav[], ADTYPE rwsav[], Integer &inform)
}
}
The function is overloaded on ADTYPE which represents the type of active arguments. ADTYPE may be any of the following types:
double,
dco::ga1s<double>::type,
dco::gt1s<double>::type
Note: this function can be used with AD tools other than dco/c++. For details, please contact NAG.

3 Description

e04nd is the AD Library version of the primal routine e04ndf.
e04ndf may be used to supply optional parameters to e04ncf from an external file. For further information see Section 3 in the documentation for e04ndf.

5 Arguments

In addition to the arguments present in the interface of the primal routine, e04nd includes some arguments specific to AD.
A brief summary of the AD specific arguments is given below. For the remainder, links are provided to the corresponding argument from the primal routine. A tooltip popup for all arguments can be found by hovering over the argument name in Section 2 and in this section.
1: ad_handlenag::ad::handle_t Input/Output
On entry: a configuration object that holds information on the differentiation strategy. Details on setting the AD strategy are described in AD handle object in the NAG AD Library Introduction.
2: ioptns – Integer Input
3: lwsav(120) – logical array Communication Array
The arrays lwsav, iwsav and rwsav must not be altered between calls to any of the routines routine, routine, routine or routine.
4: iwsav(610) – Integer array Communication Array
The arrays lwsav, iwsav and rwsav must not be altered between calls to any of the routines routine, routine, routine or routine.
5: rwsav(475) – ADTYPE array Communication Array
The arrays lwsav, iwsav and rwsav must not be altered between calls to any of the routines routine, routine, routine or routine.
6: inform – Integer Output

6 Error Indicators and Warnings

e04nd preserves all error codes from e04ndf and in addition can return:
ifail=-89
An unexpected AD error has been triggered by this routine. Please contact NAG.
See Error Handling in the NAG AD Library Introduction for further information.
ifail=-199
The routine was called using a strategy that has not yet been implemented.
See AD Strategies in the NAG AD Library Introduction for further information.
ifail=-444
A C++ exception was thrown.
The error message will show the details of the C++ exception text.
ifail=-899
Dynamic memory allocation failed for AD.
See Error Handling in the NAG AD Library Introduction for further information.
