Fix testing failure on julia 1.0 #222
Conversation
The gradient function was completely removed and not moved to LinearAlgebra as documented in the depwarn. This import fails therefore.
This is needed, because we don't import the gradient function anymore.

Gradient seems to me like it's a too general concept to be "owned" by Interpolations.jl. Is there somewhere else we should import the name from to make sure we're extending the concept, rather than exporting a new one? (Or is import merging solved nowadays?) |
|
No, import merging isn't solved. I don't think we should export it. |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Since #221 is merged now, this needs rebasing anyway, and the changes to test/scaling/nointerp.jl in this PR can be discarded.
Where has LinearAlgebra.gradient moved? Could gradient be imported from the new location?
If not, I vote for completely removing the export of gradient (and, possibly, gradient!, gradient1 and the corresponding /hessian[!1]?/ functions, for consistency), and promoting qualified use of those methods instead. (This would have to go through a deprecation cycle, of course.)

Is it correct that merge of this PR is what keeps this package back from 1.0 compatibility? |
|
@mkborregaard Technically, no. But (one of) the problem(s) addressed by this PR is, namely that we need to decide how to handle that |
|
Everything this tries to solve is handled in #226 |
This removes the import of LinearAlgebra: gradient and exports the gradient function because it has been fully removed (see JuliaLang/julia#16113).
It also includes the changes of #221 to Random.srand.
