- New: Added FreeBSD/Ubuntu patches from Otacilio De Araujo
(<otaciliodearaujo@gmail.com>).
* ./katabatic:
- New: Makes use of cbug to display the (scary) debug messages.
- New: Added FreeBSD/Ubuntu patches from Otacilio De Araujo
(<otaciliodearaujo@gmail.com>).
* ./crlcore:
- New: In Utilities, cbug stream to separate all the scary messages
from Kite/Katabatic and maybe others.
- New: In stratus1.conf, adds default settings previously in st_config.
- New: Moves Python configuration helpers from under /etc/coriolis2
into PYTHON_SITE_PACKAGES/crlcore. Adapt Utilities so coriolisInit.py
is now searched in that directory. This way only true configuration
files remains under /etc/coriolis2
- Change: In helpers/__init__.py, do not try to guess the sysConfDir
when not run through coriolisInit.py. This is done by exploring the
call stack with traceback.
- Change: In ApDriver, when a physical view is driven, update the flag
in the catalog state telling that this view is present. This is far
from satisfactory as this flag should be set as soon as any physical
component is created.
- 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.
* ./unicorn:
- New: Added Python support.
- New: No binary is generated. Instead a Python script is supplied.
- A complete sweep of cleanup to suppress allmost all compiler warnings.
* ./crlcore:
- New: Extented Python support for all objects needed to configure Coriolis.
- New: Configuration files and load helpers completly written in Python.
An XML emulation mode is still avalaible.
- New: UsersGuide, as a replacement for README, written in ReST.
- New: Start of Doxygen documentation (mostly for documenting the initialisation
objects & methods).
- 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.
- A complete sweep of cleanup to suppress allmost all compiler warnings.
* ./vlsisapd/openchams:
- Change: Completly remove Name as std::string are shared. Also impact
amsCore (OpenChamsParser/OpenChamsDriver).
* ./vlsisapd/configuration:
- Bug: Python.h must be included first (see Isobar comment).
- Change: New "readFromFile()" Configuration method.
- New: Support for tarball directly from the user checkout (--user-tarball).
- New: Full parametrization through a "build.conf" file.
- Change: Uses user-defined exceptions to terminate.
- New: guessOs() now detect FreeBSD 8.
* ./bootstrap/coriolisEnv.py,
./bootstrap/coriolis2.sh:
- Bug: 'lib64' instead of '64' under Linux.
- New: guessOs() now detect FreeBSD 8.
- Change: Remove support for Coriolis 1. No more --v2 option either, Coriolis2
selected by default. Python paths also set by default.
- Change: In Parameters, suppress the two separate maps, one for double
and another for string (equations). We shouldn't suppose what kind
of data an user can put in the parameter's value. Now that the
parameters for the HB-Tree are to be integrated, we have not only
double but boolean, integers and a direction string. The value are
now stored in a raw fashion as strings. It is up to the parser/drivers
(i.e OpenChamsParser/OpenChamsDriver) to give meaning to those strings
and interpret them accordingly.
- Change: In Circuit, helper templates (and some non-template) functions
to cast a string into various types. All the POD through stringAs<>
template, plus stringAsDirection() & stringAsBool(). Reverse functions
templates asString<> are also avalaible.
Note: Those helpers are of more general interest, we should displace
them sooner or later into a common "Utility" sub-tool.
- Bug: In ./cmake_modules/FindBootstrap.cmake, fix small message display
typos. No 'IN LISTS' in forach call. Force variable lookup in
SEARCH_SETUP_DIR in foreach summarizing the search path.
- Change: In RoutingEvent::State::conflictSolve1_v1b(), when finding obstacles
in candidates tracks, no longer ignore blockages (segments from pads that
connot be broken because they see *no* conflicts...).
- Bug: In placeandroute.py/createGrid(), VIAs of the big clock grid must
have the same width as the wires (12l). But due to the layer extension
the VIA side must be of 11l.
- Bug: In placeandroute.py/createGrid(), wires connecting cell clock pin
to the clock trunk must respect the preferred routing direction.
The only exception being when the wire is completly enclosed under
the trunk wire. This is for the obstacle stage of the detailed router.
