[ADOL-C] ADOLC 2.2.1 vs branch

[Rishi Amrit]

Hi Kshitij,

  Thanks for your reply. I have a quick question. Does ADOLC allow you
to have nested function calls in a tape ?

For eg: Can I have something like

trace_on(tagL)
....
...
foo(a, b, c)
...
...
trace_off()

where foo is a function with adoubles like

void foo(adouble* a, adouble* b, adouble* c)
{
  c[0] = a[0] + b[0];
}

Thanks,

Kind regards,
Rishi
