IterativeInverse function appears to have disappeared between v8.5.0 and v9.0.0?

[Krishnakumar Gopalakrishnan]

I was just finishing Prof Bangerth's video lecture 21 wherein the concept of Schur Complement is introduced. For computing the inverse of the mass matrix (M), it looks like Dealii uses the facilities of the IterativeInverse class.

The latest notes in the webpage for the lecture, https://www.math.colostate.edu/~bangerth/videos.676.21.html say "The IterativeInveerse class is in fact a part of deal.II."

The last version which documents this class is v8.5.0.  Somehow, this version has disappeared since v9.0.0 (or maybe we have a doxygen bug?). I could not find any information related to this in the "news" section of the webpage, nor from the latest changelog https://www.dealii.org/developer/doxygen/deal.II/recent_changes.html  . Also, it looks like there is no way to access the changelog corresponding to a release from the project's webpage.

Can someone please point me in the right direction regarding the documentation of this class for the latest release of dealii?

Regards,

Krishna

Have a look at https://www.dealii.org/current/doxygen/deal.II/changes_between_8_5_0_and_9_0_0.html, item 70.

Best,

I've updated this as well. It now uses LinearOperator.
