Dear list,
I'd like to check if a minimization did converge and how many
minimization steps were used (ConjugateGradientMininimizer ). Is there
an easy way to get these values, that does not hurt performance too much ?
I allready thougt of the following methods:
- create a trajectory and read the number of steps from the
trajectory-object (might slow down the calculation)
- add a counter as a forcefield term (the forcefield is evaluated far
mor often than the max. minimization steps)
- create a custom action-object for counting (as far as I found out,
this requires writing a special C-library with a Cfuntion just for counting)
