In SelectorCriterion & SelectorCriterions, when selecting a Net occurrence,
we where storing the Net only. This was fine if the Net was belonging to
the Cell's top level. But when it was an occurrence of a non-top level
net, this was creating the elusive incoherent Occurrence problem.
Now we truly store the occurrence of the Net, to be accurate, the root
of the HyperNet.
* Change: In SelectorCriterions::add(), the Net* argument is replaced
by a Occurrence of Net. Must be an HyperNet root occurrence.
Same goes for SelectorCriterions::remove().
* Change: In CellWidget::select(), when called with a Net occurrence,
select the whole HyperNet components.
* Change: In NetSelectorCriterion, now use a Net occurrence instead
of directly a Net. Must be an HyperNet root net occurrence.
* Bug: In Viewer::SelectionPopup(), the window attribute
Qt::WA_DeleteOnClose was *not* cleared. So the window was deleted
after first use while it was though staying allocated.
Again, generating weird crashes.
Took the occasion to slightly redesign the behavior to select
and highlight individual components.
* Bug: In Common.h, makes the INSPECTOR_PV_SUPPORT to generate a getRecord()
by *value* instead of *by reference*. Seems the overload resolution
system has changed and discriminate between them using now the exact
match.
This was causing InspectorWidget::setRootoccurrence() to fail, the
getRecord(Occurrence) not corectly resolved always returning NULL.
* Change: In Occurrence, now use INSPECTOR_PV_SUPPORT (instead of PR).
* Change: In SelectionPopup, added a _cellWidget attribute to be able
to call setShowSelection() in ::mouseReleaseEvent(), same as for
SelectCommand.
* Bug: In SelectionWidget::changeSelectionMode(), reset the _updateState
to ExternalEmit in *all cases* at the end of the function call.
Failing to do that was another cause for the selection check box
to desinchronize.
* New: Python/C++ API level:
* Write a new C++/template wrapper to get rid of boost::python
* The int & long Python type are now merged. So a C/C++ level,
it became "PyLong_X" (remove "PyInt_X") and at Python code
level, it became "int" (remove "long").
* Change: VLSISAPD finally defunct.
* Configuration is now integrated as a Hurricane component,
makes use of the new C++/template wrapper.
* vlsisapd is now defunct. Keep it in the source for now as
some remaining non essential code may have to be ported in
the future.
* Note: Python code (copy of the migration howto):
* New print function syntax print().
* Changed "dict.has_key(k)" for "k" in dict.
* Changed "except Exception, e" for "except Exception as e".
* The division "/" is now the floating point division, even if
both operand are integers. So 3/2 now gives 1.5 and no longer 1.
The integer division is now "//" : 1 = 3//2. So have to carefully
review the code to update. Most of the time we want to use "//".
We must never change to float for long that, in fact, represents
DbU (exposed as Python int type).
* execfile() must be replaced by exec(open("file").read()).
* iter().__next__() becomes iter(x).__next__().
* __getslice__() has been removed, integrated to __getitem__().
* The formating used for str(type(o)) has changed, so In Stratus,
have to update them ("<class 'MyClass'>" instead of "MyClass").
* the "types" module no longer supply values for default types
like str (types.StringType) or list (types.StringType).
Must use "isinstance()" where they were occuring.
* Remove the 'L' to indicate "long integer" (like "12L"), now
all Python integer are long.
* Change in bootstrap:
* Ported Coriolis builder (ccb) to Python3.
* Ported Coriolis socInstaller.py to Python3.
* Note: In PyQt4+Python3, QVariant no longer exists. Use None or
directly convert using the python syntax: bool(x), int(x), ...
By default, it is a string (str).
* Note: PyQt4 bindings & Python3 under SL7.
* In order to compile user's must upgrade to my own rebuild of
PyQt 4 & 5 bindings 4.19.21-1.el7.soc.
* Bug: In cumulus/plugins.block.htree.HTree.splitNet(), set the root
buffer of the H-Tree to the original signal (mainly: top clock).
Strangely, it was only done when working in full chip mode.
* 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.
* Bug: In Hurricane, In Cell, the quad-tree cannot be mergeds because
when a geometrical search is performed, components, and even more
importantly, instances from lower hierarchical levels will be
reported. And there is no simple way to discriminate them.
* Change: In Hurricane, Cell & Instance, change the flag of
MergedQuadTree into SlavedAb.
* Bug: In Hurricane, In Instance::slaveAbutmentBox(), the AB of the
master model must be set before calling setPlacementStatus()
otherwise the Instance do not get inserted into the quad-tree
(empty AB).
Details:
* New: in <bootstrap>: add support for devtoolset-2 in ccb. Run the
cmake commands through 'scl', set shell environment variables
BOOST_INCLUDEDIR & BOOST_LIBRARYDIR and disable the default
system path search.
* Change: In various flex scanners add the %nounput to suppress
compiler warnings.
* Change: Little cleanup for g++ 4.8.1 as it's more strict.
* Change: In various top CMakeLists.txt, suppress extraneous '/'
after DESTDIR.
- Change: In PyHurricane, add type object for all subtype of Component, then
we can use the Python "isinstance()" function to know the true type of a
component. Useful when looping over a collection of Component.
Name clash: We have used the class name as the name of the constructor
inside the Hurricane module, at a time we where less acquainted with
Python, so the real class are named 'PyVertical' for example, while
'Hurricane' is the constructor function. Should correct this in the
future but it's a huge work as all the Python scripts must be editeds...
- Change: In PyNet, adds the "getComponents()" Collection accessor.
- New: In Occurrence, added method getCompactString() to display a more
compact version of the occurrence.
- New: PyQuery & PyQueryMask expose the Query classe. Only partially implemented,
and with the start of the template based interface disabled.
- 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.
- New: Torus object. To allow a simpler management of a chip's corona,
the toric area between the pads and the core.
- Change: In HyperNet/LeafPlugOccurrences, change the instance stop criterions
from "isLeaf()", which means "contains no instances" to "isTerminal()"
which can be programmatically changed. This has to be done for the Pads
which are non-leaf due to "padreal" but still must be considered for their
connectors.
This modification is coupled with one in the Ap parser.
- Change: In Backtrace, enable support for Apple backtrace. This is a blind
test as I can't check by myself.
* ./hurricane/src/viewer:
- Change: In CellWidget/SelectionModel/SelectionWidget, rewrite the Gos selec-
tion mechanism. Now ExtensionGo could be selecteds as they ought to be.
Also adopt a more standard way of how objetcs are selecteds.
Prefer "dataChanged()" signal over "reset()" or "layoutChanged()" as
it keeps the selection instead of resetting it.
Unselecteds entry in the window (toggled with 't') are now shown in
red for better readability.
