- New: Added FreeBSD/Ubuntu patches from Otacilio De Araujo
(<otaciliodearaujo@gmail.com>).
* ./stratus/src/stratus.py
- Change: Configuration is now read through the new python C/API
system. No more st_config.
- Change: In st_model, separate View() in two methods, one that load the
model into the editor (still named View()) and a Breakpoint() method
for putting true stop points. The Breakpoint() method calls the
View() method. Will simplificate my explanations to the students...
- Change: Add support for chip-level nets. POWER/GROUND/CLOCK as signals.
- Bug: Reorder import so that CRL is always imported first so that the
problem of duplicated type_info RTTI doesn't show.
- Change: New problem identified with the Python modules: each module seems
to be built as a complete binary, so all the static C++ initializers are
allocated in each module. In particular the C++ tree inheritance is built
for *each* module so we cannot longer uses the typeid() comparisons
across modules... It was used by boost::program_options to perform is
casts with boost::any and was starting throwing exceptions because of
bad casts. program_option was first initialized in "configuration"
first included by PyViewer then in PyCRL (see Utilities.cpp).
A first solution is to re-order the import of Python modules in
stratus1/st_model so that CRL is imported first.
The second is to not not link "configuration" with boost::program_option
as only the binary vlsisapd-conf-editor needs it.
That is a serious problem of which we must be aware and can cause further
strange behaviors.
Debug code used to diagnostic has been kept commented in the sources a
it may be needed again :-(
This behavior do not affect our singletons because they are part of
dynamic libraries that seems to be correctly shared between the various
Python modules.
* ./stratus1,
./cumulus:
- Change: Replace calls to CRL.getAllianceFramework() by CRL.AllianceFramework.get().
