* Change: In CRL::GdsStream, no longer export empty Cells as structures,
to avoid empty cells in Cadence. To prevent meta-transistors to be
exported as real physical objects.
Also put a hard-coded test to prevent exporting "control_r" model
which is made of AMS standard cells for "amsOTA".
* Change: In CRL/PyRoutingGauge, export the isHV() and isVH() methods so
the Stack can access it.
* Change: In Hurricane/PyCellViewer, export the removeHistory() method.
When a Cell is deleted, it must be also removed from the editor
history. This should be take care of automatically, but for now
we make it manually through scripts.
* Bug: In Anabatic::NetBuilder::doRp_accessAnalog(), the gauge offset
was not taken into account when creating initial Contact on
RoutingPad. The program self corrected afterwards, but with the
display of a disgraceful message.
* Change: In Anabatic::Configuration and Session, export the gauge offsets.
* 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.
* New: In Isobar::Script, scripts arguments are now passed through a
"keywords" argument (Python: **kw), that is a dictionnary.
To add *any* Python object to that dictionnary, uses the new
method Script::addKwArgument(const char* key, PyObject*).
The "cell" and "editor" variables are now passed that way.
This means that, for the editor, the old way of inserting
a symbol in the module global dictionary is no longer used
and the Python scripts must be modificateds.
* New: In Hurricane::PyCellViewer, create the Python link function
for translation from Hurricane to Python.
* New: In Unicorn, modifications for the new argument passing for
the Python scripts.
* New: In Hurricane, in CellViewer, create a simpler API to graft menu
and actions into the menubar. Mainly addToMenu() which take care of
the QAction creation but also locate the relevant QMenu, base on
the Qt object name. Regroup all the widget & action creation inside
the body of the constructor, this way almost all actions can be
removed from the attributes of the CellViewer.
addToMenu() is supplied in three flavors:
1. For C++ callbacks in GraphicToolEngines (with a binded
member function method).
2. For running Python scripts to be used by the plugin system.
3. To insert separator in menus (to give a more homogeneous
look).
Remove the last remnants of Stratus scripts (unificated with basic
Python scripts).
* New: In Hurricane, in PyCellViewer, export the interface to graft
Python scripts into the CellViewer menu tree.
* Change: In Etesian, in GraphicEtesianEngine, use the new API to
graft menus & callbacks into the CellViewer.
* Change: In Mauka, in GraphicMaukaEngine, use the new API to
graft menus & callbacks into the CellViewer.
* Change: In Kite, in GraphicKiteEngine, use the new API to
graft menus & callbacks into the CellViewer.
* New: In Cumulus, install Python scripts as plugins for Unicorn under
<PYTHON_SITE_PACKAGES>/cumulus/plugins/.
* New: In Unicorn, in UnicornGui, make uses of the new API for creating
menus in the CellViewer. Creates the stem menu for the P&R tools.
Add a Python initialization mechanism to read the plugins
installeds into <PYTHON_SITE_PACKAGES>/cumulus/plugins/.
- New: Added FreeBSD/Ubuntu patches from Otacilio De Araujo
(<otaciliodearaujo@gmail.com>).
* ./hurricane:
- Change: In CellViewer, one unificated method to lauch Python
scripts whatever they are Stratus or not.
- Change: In ScriptWidget, the function lauched is now
"ScriptMain()".
- New: In PyCellViewer, add the refresh method.
- A complete sweep of cleanup to suppress allmost all compiler warnings.
* ./hurricane/doc/hurricane:
- New: Documentation cleanup and update, particularly on the new Layer
derived classes.
* ./hurricane/src/hurricane,
./hurricane/src/isobar,
./hurricane/src/viewer:
- New: Creation of new methods, more explicit on DbU. Based on a to/from
naming scheme.
- New: Python support extented to include all objects needed to configure
through python scripts.
- Change: Finally understood what's causing the _XOPEN_SOURCE redefinition.
Basically the Python.h must be included first before any other
include. The type-puned problem will remains still (that is a Python
problem, not our own).
- Change: In DisplayStyle, uses shared_ptr for DrawingStyle instead of
custom made reference count.
