* Bug: In Hurricane, in StaticObservable::getObserver(), if the slot
pointer is NULL, do not try to access the owner. Returns NULL, so
the caller can be aware of the situation...
* Change: In Hurricane, in BreakpointWidget & ExceptionWidget some
cosmetic changes (fonts and window sizes).
* Bug: In Anabatic, In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints(), take into account
the constraints from the source AutoContact, as it holds the constraints
transmitted by the RoutingPads and sets up by propageConstraintsFromRp().
It is likely to be a bug affecting the original Katabatic as well.
* Change: In Anabatic, in RawGCellsUnder(), check that the segment is not
completly oustside the cell abutment box and truncate the coordinates
to the part that is inside. Use the "shrink" if we reach the east/north
border.
* Change: In Anabatic, in Configuration, no more decorator because we will
use a true derived relationship. Katana *derives* from *Anabatic* and do
not *decorate* it, so the Configuration can do the same. It also implies
that we directly create a Katana engine, not an Anabatic one.
* Change: In Anabatic, in Session, do not allow the opening of the Session
in a standalone fashion (with a static method). Instead it must be opened
using the relevant method of the Anabatic/Katana engine. This ensure we
are opening the right Session type.
* Change: In Anabatic, in AutoSegment_Aligneds() collection the seed segment
is not part of the collection by default, but will be included if the
Flags::WithSelf is set.
* Change: In Configuration, all the flags value are now defined in two steps.
Declared in the header and initialized in the module. This is to prevent
the fact that on some cases, in relation with the Python "extern C" part
modules, we need a true allocated variable. It was causing weird linking
problems.
A side effect is that they can no longer be used as entry is switches,
have to replace them by if/else.
* New: In Anabatic, new GCell::getNeighborAt() utility function.
* Bug: In Anabatic, in GCell::doGrid(), tag all the GCells of the grid with
the grid type... Back annote all the edges capacity (north & east) with
the reserved local capacity.
* New: Complete portage of Kite over Anabatic. The new engine is christened
"Katana" for Kite-Analogic. When it's capabilities and performances
will be on a part with Kite, it is to completly replace it (and take
back the "Kite" name). Preliminary tests seems to show that, contrary
to intuition (because built on a more complex/slower grid), it is even
slightly faster than Kite 8-).
* Change: In Hurricane Commons.h, even when cdebug print nothing, it slow
down the program (three times for Kite!). Create a macro cdebug_log
which calls cdebug *only* if the debug level is active.
* Change: In Hurricane, in Flags add operator overload for "int" type
and not only "unsigned int". Otherwise the compiler complaints about
ambiguous overload when using enum values which are considered as
"int".
Simpler code for the BaseFlags::contains() method.
Added implicit conversion from BaseFlags toward bool type.
* Change: In Hurricane, in Commons, complete replacement of the previous
two trace systems (trace & ltrace) by a stream-based one.
As it is a true object it is much less fragile than the one based
on defines (but maybe a little slower).
Define a reservation table for the trace levels for all the
Coriolis & Chams components.
* Change: All tools, use the new trace system.
* Change: In Hurricane, in JsonReader::HurricaneHandler, add RawNumber().
Don't know what kind of data it parses, so for now if it's called,
just issue a warning.
* Bug: In documentation, in UsersGuide, add dependencies on doc_HTML and
doc_LaTeX so they are rebuild if the source files changes.
Some modifications to work with our new installation of TeXLive 2014.
* New: In boostrap, in ccb.py, added support for the "support" project
which contains external dependencies. Currently contains only
RapidJSON. Those dependencies must be cloned here manually.
* New: In Hurricane, Initializer class for an ordered static initialization
across different compilation modules.
* Change: In Hurricane, at DataBase level, no longer save the Cells in
the libraries, but create and ordered list of Cell. Deepest cells
(leaf cells) first. To avoid dependency problems.
* New: In Hurricane, JSON support for Property.
* New; In CRL, added JSON support for AllianceFramework, Environement &
Catalog and their associated properties. Adjustment of the
AllianceLibrary creation policy.
