* New: In Anabatic::AutoContactTerminal, new method "isOnPin()" to
know if the terminal contact is on a Pin. Introduced in base
class.
* Bug: In Anabatic::AutoHorizontal::_canSlacken() & AutoVertical,
forbid slackening from a Pin. As Pin are all on the side of the
cell (aligneds) and the perpandicular segment will be locked on
the Pin, it generates intractable overlaps for the router.
* Change: In Anabatic::AutoSegments collections, change the type of all
the flags that where in "unsigned int" (32 bits) to Flags (uint64_t)
as there is now more than 32 flags for functions.
* New: In Ababatic::Constants, added new flag Flags::WithPerpands, which
makes the number of flags tip over 32 bits, thus making mandatory
to uses Flags and not unsigned int.
* New: In Anabatic::AutoSegments_Perpandiculars, manage a new flag
Flags::WithDoglegs to allow to propagate through global segments that
are connecteds via doglegs on local segments. Meaning that there is
a good chance that they could be aligned.
Slighly change the way we propagate on aligned segments: no longer
check for VTee or HTee, but only for same direction and layer as
master.
* New: In Anabatic & Katana, replace all the "int", "long" and their
variants by the less implementation ambiguous "int32_t", "int64_t"
(and variant). This should help to better detect bit trucation in
flags.
Use the type to give a hint about the flags kind:
- Type "Flags", for flags shared among Anabatic & Katana
functions/methods (may also appear in some objects states).
- Type "uint32_t" for flags belonging to an object internal
state of from Hurricane functions flags (those should be
grouped in a Flag subclass in a perfect world).
* Change: In Hurricane::BaseFlags, store flags in uint64_t instead of
unsigned int because we start to need more than 32 different flags
in some tools.
* New: In ::getString() & ::getRecord() templates, add support for
std::array<>.
* Change: In CRL::ToolEngine, add support for timer (time & memory
measurements) displaced from Katabatic. This way all ToolEngine
can use this feature. The _postCreate() method display the
memory just after ToolEngine allocation.
* Change: In Etesian::EtesianEngine, make use of the ToolEngine
builtin timer (remove the local one). Forgot to call the base
class _postCreate() and _preDestroy().
* Change: In Anabatic::AnabaticEngine, make use of the ToolEngine
builtin timer (remove the local one).
* New: In Anabatic, new AutoSegments_Connecteds() collection. This
Collection allows a deterministic walkthough *all* the AutoSegments
connected either to source or target of one AutoSegment.
* New: In Anabatic::AutoContactTerminal::isEndPoint() to check if an
AutoContactTerminal is the *only one* anchored on a RoutingPad,
thus being a true "end point" and not a kind of feed-through.
* New: In Katana::KatanaEngine, added support for symmetric nets.
Created new class DataSymmetric to store symmetric information
of a net (mainly the paired AutoSegments).
Added KatanaEngine::runSymmetricRouter(), for now only build
the DataSymmetric informations. More to come...
* Change: In Katana::GraphicKatanaEngine::_runTest(), now perform
symmetric information building the non-symmetric routing.
* New: In Anabatic::AutoContact, added forceOnGrid() method to allow
a AutoContactTerminal to be set (and fixed) outside it's constraint
Box. Be aware that this may generate gaps in the routing.
Stored using the UserNativeConstraints mechanism.
* New: In Anabatic::Session() new method getNearestgridpoint() to
easily compute the nearest grid point from a position.
* Change: In Anabatic::AutoSegment::_revalidate(), use layer mask to
compute the spin of the segment instead of the layers (more robust
for analogic).
* New: In ::GCellTopology::doRp_Access() new method to create terminal
contacts in _doDevice(). Issue more warnings and force the terminal
to on grid (even if it create gaps). This a temporary hack.
* Bug: In Anabatic::GCell, new functions getConstraintUMax() to return the
correct bounding box for the last north/east GCell. The GCells do not
own their north/east edges, except for the last ones. Thoses functions
must distinct from getUMax() because for them, the shrink is always
applied. getConstraintBox() uses the "getConstraintUMax()" functions.
* Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContact, initialize the constraint box from the
new GCell::getConstraintUMax(), to manage correctly the boundaries
of the nothernmost & easternmost GCells. The problem was showing for
pins on the north/east side of a circuit, the constraint
* Bug: In Anabatic::AutoContactHTee, Anabatic::AutoContactVTee and
Anabatic::AutoContactTerminal forgot to call the _preCreate() function
in the various create().
* Bug: In Matrix::getUnder(), if on the N/E boundary, decrease by one to
be enclosed in it.
