* New: In Anabatic_AutoSegments collection, added a Flag to the constructors
to allow different behavior between digital and analog modes.
For "Aligneds" and "Perpandiculars" collections, now manage a new
Flag WithDoglegs to follow aligned globals through local doglegs
(for analog nets).
Adjust the log level of collections to 144 (formerly 145).
* New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, new flag SegAnalog for segments that are
part of an analog net.
Note that with this flag, we reach the 32 bits limit...
* Change: In Anabatic::Constants, Flags are now declared as BaseFlags
objects and *not* uint64_t. This avoids overload resolution problems with
arithmetical overload of the operators.
The BaseFlags/Flags types are now completly "isolated" from the
uint64_t, it has the advantage of showing where unwanted previous implicit
conversions where occuring.
* Change: In Katana::Constants, Flags values are now of BaseFlags type instead
of uint64_t.
* Change: In Anabatic::Dijkstra, lots of log cleanup.
* Change: In Anabatic::GCell::getSide(), make the "shrink" parameter visible
to allow to substract the topmost and rightmost track for axis span
computation in AutoSegment::computeOptimal(). Used for analog mode.
* Change: In NetRoutingState, added a flag for analog mode. Use uint32_t
for the flags type.
* New: In Isobar, export the NetRoutingState and NetRoutingExtension objects.
* Change: In all top CMakeLists.txt, force the use of Python 2.7 as
we do not compile against 3.x flavors. Do not use the "EXACT"
flags as it will not recognize 2.7.x versions.
* Change: In Katana::RoutingEvent::Key::Compare(), preliminary
experiments shows that the best sorting order is:
- Lower layer first (i.e. M2 -> M3 -> M4 -> ... )
- Longer segments first.
The later seems to be counter-intuitive. Guess is that placing
the small ones first generate a more important fragmentation of
the big ones. They are placed too early and are difficult to move
afterwards.
Another feature to test is *not* inserting pushed left/right
segments if they are not *already* routed.
* Change: In PyKatanaEngine.runNegociate() now takes a flag argument,
provided through the new PyKatanaFlags exported object.
(doChip.py must be changed accordingly)
