Unfortunately I cannot get a working example of using a SecondOrderODEProblem and any Sundials solver. One workaround is to reformulate the problem as a ODEProblem, but perhaps you know more than I do.
This shows the problem:
using OrdinaryDiffEq
ω = 1
x₀ = [0.0]
dx₀ = [π/2]
tspan = (0.0, 2π)
function harmonic_oscillator(ddu,du,u,ω,t)
ddu .= -ω^2 * u
end
prob = SecondOrderODEProblem(harmonic_oscillator, dx₀, x₀, tspan, ω)
#Tsit 5 works
sol = solve(prob, Tsit5())
using Sundials
# error using CVODE_BDF
sol = solve(prob, CVODE_BDF())
Tsit5 works and for COVDE_BDF I get the following error message:
ERROR: LoadError: MethodError: Cannot `convert` an object of type Array{Float64,1} to an object of type RecursiveArrayTools.ArrayPartition{Float64,Tuple{Array{Float64,1},Array{Float64,1}}}
Closest candidates are:
convert(::Type{T}, ::T) where T<:AbstractArray at abstractarray.jl:14
convert(::Type{T}, ::LinearAlgebra.Factorization) where T<:AbstractArray at /build/julia/src/julia-1.5.3/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.5/LinearAlgebra/src/factorization.jl:55
