Proposed Changes
JacobianIndex, one of thecodi-tapebuild options, was prone to misunderstandings since it was not clear whether or not the underlying type supports copy optimizations. There are two options now,JacobianReuse, which does not support copy optimizations and is similar to the hybrid AD type in that regard, andJacobianMultiUse, which does support copy optimizations and is similar to the default type with linear management in that regard.I took the opportunity to also add options for primal value tapes in a consistent manner, they were there previously but less detailed and commented out.
