* Change: To allow multiple tools, and not only Knik, to link and use
FLUTE, remove it from Knik and put it at top level.
Bootsrap must compile this new tool and the library must be
included in all CMakeLists.txt depending on Knik (and soon
Anabatic).
* Change: In all tools supplying documentation, as we use some specific
software to create the doc, they may not be available, or worse, be
and incompatible version. So, by default, we install the files shipped
with the git repository. To force a full doc rebuild, use the "--doc"
flag of ccb.py.
* Bug: In Hurricane, in StaticObservable::getObserver(), if the slot
pointer is NULL, do not try to access the owner. Returns NULL, so
the caller can be aware of the situation...
* Change: In Hurricane, in BreakpointWidget & ExceptionWidget some
cosmetic changes (fonts and window sizes).
* Bug: In Anabatic, In AutoHorizontal::getConstraints(), take into account
the constraints from the source AutoContact, as it holds the constraints
transmitted by the RoutingPads and sets up by propageConstraintsFromRp().
It is likely to be a bug affecting the original Katabatic as well.
* Change: In Anabatic, in RawGCellsUnder(), check that the segment is not
completly oustside the cell abutment box and truncate the coordinates
to the part that is inside. Use the "shrink" if we reach the east/north
border.
* Change: In Anabatic, in Configuration, no more decorator because we will
use a true derived relationship. Katana *derives* from *Anabatic* and do
not *decorate* it, so the Configuration can do the same. It also implies
that we directly create a Katana engine, not an Anabatic one.
* Change: In Anabatic, in Session, do not allow the opening of the Session
in a standalone fashion (with a static method). Instead it must be opened
using the relevant method of the Anabatic/Katana engine. This ensure we
are opening the right Session type.
* Change: In Anabatic, in AutoSegment_Aligneds() collection the seed segment
is not part of the collection by default, but will be included if the
Flags::WithSelf is set.
* Change: In Configuration, all the flags value are now defined in two steps.
Declared in the header and initialized in the module. This is to prevent
the fact that on some cases, in relation with the Python "extern C" part
modules, we need a true allocated variable. It was causing weird linking
problems.
A side effect is that they can no longer be used as entry is switches,
have to replace them by if/else.
* New: In Anabatic, new GCell::getNeighborAt() utility function.
* Bug: In Anabatic, in GCell::doGrid(), tag all the GCells of the grid with
the grid type... Back annote all the edges capacity (north & east) with
the reserved local capacity.
* New: Complete portage of Kite over Anabatic. The new engine is christened
"Katana" for Kite-Analogic. When it's capabilities and performances
will be on a part with Kite, it is to completly replace it (and take
back the "Kite" name). Preliminary tests seems to show that, contrary
to intuition (because built on a more complex/slower grid), it is even
slightly faster than Kite 8-).
