[jira] [Commented] (MATH-464) LegendreGaussIntegrator ignores defaultMaximalIterationCount and does 38 million iterations

["Luc Maisonobe (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-464?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13068347#comment-13068347 ] 

Luc Maisonobe commented on MATH-464:
------------------------------------

Coming back to this issue.

I would propose to follow the same pattern we used for root solvers: adding a maxEval parameter in the top level integrate interface declaration. So we would have the same kind of configuration, with tolerances set at integrator/solver level and maxEval and function pointer passed at integrate/solve method call.

Since we are just in the phase we change interfaces, this would be a good time to add this parameter.

Does this seems reasonable ?

> The following code results in count = 37801710 which is effectively an infinite loop for typical functions we are using

> The argument defaultMaximalIterationCount = 100 is being ignored
