Description Björn Barz 2017-08-04 10:03:43 UTC
The LLT::rankUpdate() method apparently requires the Jacobi module. This requirement is not documented anywhere and straightforward use of the method without explicitly including Eigen/Jacobi leads to compiler errors.

For example, trying to compile the following code:

    #include <Eigen/Core>
    #include <Eigen/Cholesky>
    using namespace Eigen;

    int main(int argc, char * argv[])
    {
        MatrixXd A = MatrixXd::Random(10, 10);
        A = A * A.transpose();
        VectorXd v = VectorXd::Random(10);

        LLT<MatrixXd> llt(A);
        llt.rankUpdate(v);

        return 0;
    }

This leads to the following compiler errors:

Adding "#include <Eigen/Jacobi>" solves this.
This requirement should either be documented or resolved implicitly.
