* Bug: In Hurricane, in HApplication, ExceptionWidget ans PyHurricane.h,
forgot to catch the Hurricane::Bug exception which was leading to
terminate() without explanations.
* Change: In Katabatic, In GCellTopology, now support one GCell with
five metal1 terminal of the same net. This unlikely configuration
did appear in the SNX for the first time...
* New: In VLSISAPD, in Configuration, add a new priority level UserFile
to distinguish between the system configuration files and the user's
configuration files (which take precedence).
* New: In Hurricane, in Script (Python), improve the API to be able
to support Chams (and remove the duplicate capability from it).
Add separate functions to perform the initialize/run(s)/finalize
cycle step by step.
* Change: In CRL Core, rename real technology <hcmos9> to <hcmos9gp>,
it's offcial name from CMP/ST. This is the 130nm.
Move the reading of the symbolic & real technologies names from
coriolisInit.py to helpers.__init__.py, to be shared with
chamsInit.py.
To avoid a clash of names inside of helpers, the two variables
of techno.py are renamed "symbolicTechnology" and "realTechnology".
Move python init system from crlcore/src/crlcore to crlcore/python.
* New: In CRL Core, In Utilities, add site-packages/pharos to the
PYTHONPATH.
* Change: In Kite, move python init system from kite/src/init to
kite/python.
Update to Qt 5:
* Change: Now requires at least cmake 2.8.9.
* Change: CMakeLists.txt needs small changes. Qt modules must be found
one by one (Core, Gui, Widgets). Must add "set(CMAKE_AUTOMOC ON)"
in the top file and replace "qt4" prefix in macros by "qt5".
Added simpler macro "setup_qt()" in FindBootstrap.cmake.
* Change: No longer need to include <QGtkStyle> is is choosen by default
according to the current desktop environment.
* Change: In <hurricane>, In HApplication, launch ExceptionWidget when
a std::exception is catched instead of silently discarting it.
New placer Tool: Etesian
* New: <etesian> analytical placer. Encapsulate Coloquinte from
Gabriel Gouvine.
* New: in <documentation>, add stub demonstration ToolEngine <smurf>.
Needs to be commented.
Miscellaneous:
* New: in <boostrap> and <unicorn>, added support for Etesian, the new
analytic placer. The tool itself will be added in the next commit.
* Bug: in <CellWidget>, when shifting the display buffer, we no longer
can copy the buffer on itself (we should never have). Now go through
a temporary one (PlaneId::AutoCopy) which is added to the
DrawingPlanes. Affect "goLeft()" and "goUp()".
* Bug: In <CellWidget>, remove the WA_PaintOnScreen flag/attribute.
When it's on, no PaintEvent is transmitted to the CellWidget
when it's the central widget of the <CellViewer> (QMainWindow).
It's something I still don't understand from the doc of Qt.
* Change: In <AreaCommand>, use the PlaneId enumeration instead of a
anonymous numerical index.
* Change: In <HApplication>, no longer catch and silently discard
standartd exceptions but launch the ExceptionWidget...
Suppress the now deprecated constructor with "Type" argument.
* Change: In <SelectionModel>, the "reset()" method is deprecated in
Qt5, instead enclose the "clear()" by a "beginResetModel()" and
"endResetModel()" pair.
* New: In <crlcore>, add support for ISPD05 benchmarks (in Bookshelf
format). Forked from ISPD04 and not finished yet.
* Change: In <Mauka>, distinguish the Action string identifier from
<Etesian>
* New: In <unicorn>, add entry for ISPD05 loader. Add entry for
<Etesian> analytic placer.
- New: In ExceptionWidget, mimic more closely the behavior of a QDialog.
Uses QTextEdit/QTextDocument for the trace. Static "all in one" methods,
build from various exceptions/Errors & QString. Automatic window centering
when the trace is displayed.
- New: Backtrace to print the stack when an exception is thrown.
- New: In Error, support for Backtrack.
- Change: In TextTranslator, provides a default HTML translator instead of
building it every time it was needed.
- Bug: In Common, when demangling a C++ symbol fails, returns the empty
string instead of NULL.
* ./hurricane/src/viewer:
- New: In Exception, support for the Backtrack new feature.
* ./hurricane/src/isobar:
- Change: In PyHurricane, when catching a C++ exception, adds a newline to
have a more clean display.
- Library linking: there must not be "target_link_library()" for libraries,
only when building binaries. Avoid clashes between static module
or class variables, and strange reinitialisation of those variables.
- Change: Boost is now always linked staticly.
* ./hurricane/src/hurricane:
- New: TextTranslator to allow translation to and from text & HTML.
- Change: In Exception, make uses of TextTranslator to correctly display
exception text when in graphic mode.
* ./hurricane/src/isobar:
- New: Script, small object to wrap around Python scripts.
