* New: Added multiple clock support in H-Tree generation in alpha/block.
* New: In CRL/etc/<NODE>/<TECH>/plugins.py, added three new parameters
for block plugin config:
"block.spareSide" : The size of the minimum side of a buffered area.
(quad-tree leaf).
"spare.buffer" : The model of the cell buffer to be used.
"spare.maxSinks" : max number of sinks on a buffer before issuing
a warning (non-blocking).
* Bug: In Etesian::BloatCell::getAb(), never apply the bloat profile to
fixed cells. In case of buffers from the spare maxtrix it was leading
Coloquinte to detect an overlap of fixed cells, which it do not
support (rightly so).
* Change: In CRL/helpers/__init__.py, to ensure a complete restart of
the database the __init__.py must be called again, but it's not the
case with reload() (see Python doc). So helpers.resetCoriolis()
must explicitly removes the Coriolis related Python modules from
sys.modules (calling "del sys.modules[moduleName]").
That list of Coriolis Python modules is built by calling
helpers.tagConfModules(), it will tag all modules added to
sys.modules since startup. It will remove (much) more than
Coriolis modules, but that should be ok.
* Change: In CRL/etc/{node*,symbolic}/TECH/__init__.py, add a call to
helpers.tagConfModules() for the techno modules to be erased on
reset.
* New: In CRL/etc/node600/phenitec, ported configuration of Phenitec 0.6um
Compliant with DataBase reset.
* New: In CRL/python/helpers, added function "unloadUserSettings()" to
unload Python modules prior to a full reset.
Added "resetCoriolis()" to perform full DataBase reset.
* Change: In CRL::AllianceFramework, make it a derived class of DBo so
the destroy() is now provided.
* Bug: In CRL::AllianceFramework::getCell(), do not attempt any load if
the library list is empty. Should never occur except in case of a
botched databse reset.
* New: In CRL::AllianceFramework, new method "saveCATAL()" to write back
the catalog of a library and "saveCells()" to write back the cells.
Note: only cells actually loaded in memory will be write back.
* New: In CRL::Catalog, add method "saveToFile()" to write back the CATAL
of a library.
* Change: In CRL::ParserDriver, replace "const string&" by "string"
(improved string support of the GNU STL).
* Change: In CRL::ParserSlot, use string instead of Name.
* Change: In CRL::ApParser, make _layerInformation an ordinary attribute
instead of a static one. This allow for it's correct resetting
across databas resets.
* Change: In CRL::VstParserGrammar, reinitialize Vst::framework at each
parser call. Needed to support database reset.
* New: In Hurricane::DBo, add an object counter to be sure that when
we perform a reset, no remaining DBo is allocated. This is different
of the object id which is ever increasing.
Note that, at reset, we check against "1" remaining element as at
this point only Database is still allocated.
Add a new "resetId()" method. MUST NEVER BE CALLED except by
DataBase::_preDestroy().
* New: In Hurricane::Database, new clear() method to remove the Cells
of all the libraries in reverse hierarchical depth order.
Make use of the new CellsSort class.
* Change: In Hurricane::DataBase::_preDestroy(), call "clear()" and
DBo::resetId().
* Change: In Hurricane::Breakpoint, change the default callback to be
a static function. So we can restore it later.
* Bug: In Hurricane::Instance::_preDestroy(), there was yet another
loop of deletion over a collection for the shared pathes.
Replace it by the repetitive deletion of the first element.
* Bug: In Hurricane::Net::_preDestroy(), RoutingPads must be destroyed
prior to any other component.
* New: In Hurricane::ColorScale, add a "qtFree()" method for freeing
the Qt Brush, Pen & Color.
* New: In Hurricane::DrawingStyle, add a "qtFree()" method for freeing
the Qt Brush, Pen & Color.
* New: In Hurricane::Graphics, add a "disable()" method to call the
various "qtFree()" of the sub-objects.
