This drops the workspaces references that the proxy would have acquired.

...of a given name.
N.B. Had to temporarily comment out some tests that used the removed
algorithms() method.

Fixes an occasional abort with LiveData viewing and another script in the background

if you have one long running algo, e.g. MonitorLiveData

Also starting test to check on managed algo queue

starts asynchronously

And without an AlgorithmProxy. However, does not show up in GUI because AlgorithmMonitor::add() has to be called.

in AlgorithmManager. Prevents segfaults if running MANY algorithms while one very slow one is still running.

by making sure to NOT create managed Algorithms inside LoadLiveData

Fixes #1591. Included information about properties that don't exist in all versions of an algorithm in the Python help. Also added some helper functions to the AlgorithmFactory to make this eaiser.

Rename Framework code directory to just that. Also delete Main and VS & Eclipse project file. Re #1881.

Major backbone of Python algorithms. Changing and reloading while running MantidPlot is now implemented. Re #952

Update AlgorithmManager to only keep a limited number of algorithms alive (default 100, config property name: algorithms.retained). This check-in will break qtiplot, which will be remedied shortly... Re #500.

crusade against the usage of cout and cerr in the framework code

AlgorithmProxy class is added. References to Algorithm are replaced to IAlgorithm in many cases. re #464

Added a ListValidator, which allows a (string type) property to be restricted to a set of values. Changed the "Target" property on ConvertUnits to use this. The Property class now has an allowedValues method which returns the set of allowed values if a ListValidator is attached to the property, or an empty set otherwise.
Also modifies the PropertyWithValue class so that it is no longer possible to set a property's value to an invalid value.
Re #150.

Refs #120. Added a method to dynamic factory to return the keys and adjusted PythonInterface to account for this.

Missed another >>

Category added to algorithm base class.  This allows algorithms to be sensibly grouped in a user interface.

Also added getNamesAndCategories function to AlgorithmManager
Tests included

some tidying up

Remove warning casting int to unsigned int

implementation of algorithm version convolution in the algorithm factory. more than one version of an algorithm can be registered

have edited tests but cannot test they all work on this crummy vista machine

need to test on the 32bit box

singletons in the correct order. Fix involves implementing our own
atexit() handler for singletons. Refs #96.
