Thanks! > 1. Just like in fe_monomial.C, I set compute_constraints to be a NOOP.

This looks like a minor oversight. > 2. Similarly, I was surprised to see that L2_HIERARCHIC returns C_ZERO > rather than DISCONTINUOUS in get_continuity()? This looks just wrong. Could cause lots of subtle breakage. Unless there's something I'm missing - Truman? > 3. In fe_monomial.C, it looks like monomial_n_dofs() and > monomial_n_dofs_per_elem() are identical?

Any thoughts on the best thing to do here? I'm fine with the copy/paste if others are - especially given that the codes may diverge soon to add those higher-order features. --- Roy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
