Changes in c_interface

v0.8.2

Warning

BigARTM 3rdparty dependency had been upgraded from protobuf 2.6.1 to protobuf 3.0.0. This may affect you upgrade from previous version of bigartm. Pelase report any issues at bigartm-users@googlegroups.com.

  • Change ArtmParseCollection to return CollectionParserInfo message

  • Add APIs to enable JSON serialization for all input and output protobuf messages

    • ArtmSetProtobufMessageFormatToJson()
    • ArtmSetProtobufMessageFormatToBinary()
    • ArtmProtobufMessageFormatIsJson()

    The default setting is, as before, to serialize all message into binary buffer. Note that for with json serialization one should use RegularizerConfig.config_json, ScoreConfig.config_json and ScoreData.data_json instead of RegularizerConfig.config, ScoreConfig.config and ScoreData.data.

  • Revisit documentation for c_interface

  • Change integer types in c_interface from int to int64_t (from stdint.h). This allows to validate 2 GB limit for protobuf messages, and also to passing larger objects in ArtmCopyRequestedObject.

  • Add ArtmReconfigureTopicName method to add/remove/reorder topic names

  • Support sparse format for external retrieval of theta and phi matrices
