* New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, introduce a the kind (associated to a
flag) "LongLocal". Analog GCells can be very wide, so at least some
carefuly choosen long local segments must be took into account as
attractors in the computation of the optimal axis.
* New: In Anabatic::AutoSegment::computeOptimal(), take LongLocal into
account as attractors.
* Change: In ::GCellTopology constructors compare the layers of the
RoutingPads using layer masks instead of Layer pointers. Allows to
find both "METALx" (symbolic) and "metalX" (real).
* Change: In ::GCellTopology::_doHChannel(), _doChannel(), _doStrut()
and _doDevice(), tag long locals as "LongLocal". This need to be
reviewed as it as bind done a bit too quickly.
* Change: In Anabatic::AutoSegment, due too a much bigger span of the
analogic GCells the _optimalMin & _optimalMax bitfields must use
16 bits instead of 8 (they where overflowed).
* New: In Katana, reorganisation of the initialization procedure to fit
both digital and analogic cases. Create an analogInit() method.
* Change: In Katana::RoutingEvent, the _tracksNb and _tracksFree bitfields
where too short for the Analog GCell size, now uses 16 bits instead of
6.
* Bug: In Katana::GraphicKatanEngine::drawGCell(), skip drawing of a
GCell if *both* width and height are under 150 pixels.
* New: In Katana::Session, add a new isOpen() method.
* Change: In Hurricane::Observer, simplification of the template so that
we can use it directly instead of creating a derived class with an
implementation of Observer::notify(). Now the implemenation is the
same for all and just calls a notify() method on the owner object.
Create a StaticObservable for fast access of the observers. This
is mainly a fixed size table (array<>) with oberservers at known
indexes. This way we can go from the obervable to the observer
owner in one indirect access (or so I hope).
* Change: In Hurricane::CellViewer, use the new observers.
* Change: In Hurricane::ControllerWidget, use the new observers.
* Change: In Hurricane::CellWidget, set the winidow initial size to a
more sensible 500px.
* Change: In CRL::LibraryManager, use the new observers.
* Change: In CRL::LibraryManager, use the new observers.
* Change: In CRL, in display.conf & technology.conf, modification for
the ST hcmos9gp capacitors.
* 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.
* Change: In bootstrap, in socInstaler.sh, use the current version of
rapidjson.
* Change: In Hurricane, in FileWriteGzStream, complie to the latest
rapidjson headers organization.
* New: In Hurricane, in Cell, emit a new signal CellDestroyed toward the
observers (i.e. the CellViewer(s)), from _preDestroy().
* Change: In Hurricane, in CellViewer, in CellObserver::notify(), manage
the CellDestroyed case. Do not forget to remove the deleted Cell
from the viewer's history.
* Test: post-receive hook on server should send mail [1].
* New: In VLSISAPD, in Parameter, callback have now a tag, which the
pointer to the caller. This allow for the callback removal when
the caller is destroyed.
* New: In VLSISAPD, in WidgetDescription, when associated to a parameter,
the destructor must remove the associated callback function on
the Parameter.
* New: In Hurricane, added JSON support for Configuration, separated
from vlsisapd, as the support is not available at this point.
JSON support for Configuration, Parameter & LayoutDescription.
* Change: In Hurricane, in JsonStack, the stack of JsonObjects has been
displaced here from HurricaneHandler. This way, all
JsonObject::toData() can access the JsonOjects in the context
of the parser.
* New: In Hurricane, in DBo::toJson() added support for Entity by
reference (ids).
* New: In Hurricane, added JSON support for all Layer sub-class types.
* New: In Hurricane, in Technology, export the Layers, but must be
sorted by increasing mask value.
* New: In Hurricane, in Entity, added support for Entity by reference (ids).
* New: In Hurricane, in DataBase, added technology full support.
* New: In Hurricane, In JsonNet, move the ring rebuild management from
JsonStack to JsonNet.
* New: In Hurricane, added JSON support for NetAlias, NetExternalcomponents
(not cleanly implemented as a Relation).
* New: In Hurricane, new method Cell::fromJson() to load a cell from
a JSON file.
* New: In Hurricane, In Graphics, make it an observable, for when JSON
fully reload the graphic state, it must be able to notify other
objects (namely the Controller).
* New: In Hurricane, in ControllerWidget, observe the Graphics to regenerate
the palette as needed. New method ControllerTab::graphicsUpdated().
* New: In Hurricane, in RawDrawingStyle added a destructor to release the
Qt pen/brush. Added JSON support for HSVr, DrawingStyle, DrawingGroup,
& DisplayStyle.
* New: In Hurricane, in GraphicsWidget, rewrite correctly the readGraphics()
to erase the previous widgets and re-create the new ones.
* New: In Hurricane, in PaletteWidget, correct re-creation of the layout/widgets
in case of Graphics change.
* New: In CRL Core, in System, register the parameters callbacks with
the address of the object, for later deletion.
* New: In CRL Core, in AllianceFramework, make it observable, to notify
library changes. For the AllianceFramework creation, now allow to
completly bypass the Python initialization system, when we expect
to restore it from a full blob. Added methods to sets the default
RoutingGauge & CellGauge.
* New: In CRL Core, added JSON suppport for CellGauge, RoutingLayerGauge
& RoutingGauge.
* New: In CRL Core, in LibraryManager, oberver AllianceFramework, to update
the list of libraries in case of change (for JSON full reload).
* New: In boostrap, in ccb.py, added support for the "support" project
which contains external dependencies. Currently contains only
RapidJSON. Those dependencies must be cloned here manually.
* New: In Hurricane, Initializer class for an ordered static initialization
across different compilation modules.
* Change: In Hurricane, at DataBase level, no longer save the Cells in
the libraries, but create and ordered list of Cell. Deepest cells
(leaf cells) first. To avoid dependency problems.
* New: In Hurricane, JSON support for Property.
* New; In CRL, added JSON support for AllianceFramework, Environement &
Catalog and their associated properties. Adjustment of the
AllianceLibrary creation policy.
* New: In Hurricane, added first support for DataBase native import/export
using JSON.
We choose RapidJSON, in SAX mode, to manage the JSON format low level
Read/Write. Thus, it's Git repository http://github.com/miloyip/rapidjson
must be added under ~/coriolis-2.x/src and manually build and installed
in the Coriolis installation tree (to be integrated in ccb later).
Two mode are being supported:
1. Cell mode: one Cell only is saved. In that mode, Entities
referred by Occurrences are "outside" the file. They are coded
through their "signature" (mostly, all the values of their
attributes). The ids saved in the file cannot be restored
identically as we cannot predict when and in which context the
Cell will be reloaded.
2. Design Blob mode: the whole design hierarchy, down and including
the standard cells is saved. This way the design is completly
self contained and Entities ared referred through their ids.
A design blob can only be loaded immediatly after starting cgt
as the DataBase *must* be empty. This way we restore the whole
design hierarchy with *exactly* the same ids.
Now, Hurricane object should provide a "toJson()" method for driving
JSON, and be associated with a JsonObject derived class for parsing.
* New: In Hurricane, ability to force the next id that will be used for a
DBo (used by Design Blob Mode).
* New: In Hurricane, in DataBase, added getCell() and getLibrary() functions
to allow the hierarchical access of a Cell/Library in native mode
(i.e. whithout the requirement of AllianceFramework).
* New: In Hurricane, In CellViewer, added menu entry for Save/Load of
JSON Design Blobs. Added at this level because we consider it as the
"native" format of Hurricane.
* New: In Unicorn, added support of import/export of JSON Cell.
* Bug: In Hurricane, in Instance, when cloning an Instance or uniquifying
it's master Cell, we forgot about the Occurrences (through shared pathes).
When an instance is cloned the Shared pathes still points toward the
original Instance. And when it's the master Cell that is uniquifyed
it's the Entities pointed to that remains in the original Cell.
This is a software design problem. It is difficult to define what
policy to adopt when uniquifying: basically that means that one
Occurence is either moved onto the clone or duplicated. Furthermore,
it is not trivial to known what Occurrence is pointing on the
uniquifyed/cloned item. Have to think about it a little more.
* Bug: In Etesian, in EtesianEngine, build the flattened nets and their
RoutingPads *after* uniquifying (through slaving bounding boxes).
This way we avoid the Occurrences problem described above.
* Bug: In Etesian, in EtesianEngine, invalidate the RoutingPad after
processing the placement so they are put into the right quadtree.
This problem is due to the fact that the RoutingPads do not belong
to the Instance that they refer. And when this instance is moved
around, she doesn't inform the RoutingPad that is has moved.
More software architecture design to review...
* New: In Hurricane, added hierarchy browser in the controller.
The hierarchy is presented as a tree. New MVC, HierarchyInformations,
HierarchyModel and HierarchyBrowser.
When using a data model which is not directly connect inside the
model, we must use the internalPointer field of the QModelIndex.
But this field is also used by the QSortFilterproxymodel, this
prevent using it with a Tree model.
The filter is directly implemented and is specific to each
Instance entry.
* Change: In CellWidget & CellWidget::State, now store the Cell and
a Path, this way we can keep track of the hierarchy when browsing.
The Path is in the State and so propagated back to the Controller.
* Change: In HierarchyCommand, use the Path with setCell().
* New: In Hurricane, dedicated class BaseFlags to wrap a set of flags.
Similar to the Mask class, only with a slightly different semantic.
Encapsulation of <unsigned int>.
Also provide support for the Inspector, to have a human-readable
display of the flags.
* Change: In Hurricane, in Cell, regroup all the flags under a Flags
sub-class of Cell. No more mixing between booleans and bit flags.
(first use of BaseClass).
* In Hurricane, CRL Core & Knik, many small corrections to suppress
annoying warning messages at compile time.
Most noticeably, Bison errors in VstParserGrammar generated by
rules and token with mismatched return value type. This was not
problematic because the badly defined return value where not used.
But still...
* New: In CRL Core, created a LibraryManager widget. It provides a
composite information based on what is present, for each
Alliance library:
1. - A Cell in memory, without Catalog::State.
2. - A Catalog::State, with or whithout the Cell in memory.
3. - The files of the Cell in the librariy's directory.
4. - A file with a format referenced for one of the importers.
File type recognition is based *only* on the file extension,
so it may easily confused. Be careful about what you put in
the library's directory.
One of the big limitation is that it will not display Hurricane
libraries that do not have the AllianceLibrary extension.
This widget is put in a separate library <libmanager>, included
in the default CRLCORE_LIBRARIES.
* Change: In CRL Core, in State (through the loader), now sets the
InMemory flag (event if nobody uses it yet...). Display it in
the state _getString().
In AllianceFramework, new getAllianceLibraries() method.
In CatalogExtension, make the static method "get()" publicly
accessible, for sometimes we want the whole State.
* Bug: In vlsisapd, in Path, the pathcache was not rebuild when it
should, leading to incorrect results.
* New: In vlsisapd, in Path, added a listdir() method to access the
contents of a directory and a stat() method to poll the status
of a file/directory.
Rename the ".string()" method in ".toString()" to avoid
tricky name resolution with std::string, refactor in all the
other tools.
* Change: In Hurricane, in Controller, no longer oversize the fonts
of the table's headers.
* New: In Unicorn, in UnicornGui, integrate LibraryManager.
* New: In Bootstrap, in Builder & coriolisEnv.py support for RHEL7/SL7.
The sub-directory name is 'el7_64'.
In qt_setup() add QtSvg to list of Qt5 & Qt4 used libraries.
* New: In Hurricane, In Cell add a placeholder for flags. First use to
store whether the Nets have been transhierarchically flatteneds.
* New: In Hurricane, In NetRoutingState add an Unconnected flag for
more accurate diagnosis.
* New: Hurricane, in CellViewer add an entry menu for stress tests.
The script must be named "stressScript.py" in the cwd.
* Change: In CRL Core, in display.conf add a scaling parameter for the
display threhold of the layer. This way we can adapt to different
standard cells height.
* Change: In CRL Core, in ISPD05 bookshelf loader, use the pitch of the
cell gauge instead of a hard-wired 5.0.
* Change: In Cumulus, in ClockTreePlugin, add support for Etesian placer
and a new configuration parameter to choose between Mauka/Etesian.
* New: In Etesian, support for the latest Coloquinte.
Add feed insertion stage.
* Bug: In Kite, In BuildPowerRails, check that _ck is not NULL before
tring to access it's name...
* Change: In Kite, check if the Cell has it's Nets flattened before
doing it (or not).
* New: In Bootstrap, added support for RHEL7 in ccb.py & coriolisEnv.py.
In coriolisEnv.py, under RHEL6, directly launch a shell under
devtoolset-2 (do not put it in .bashrc).
* Change: All tools, compliance with Clang 3.2.
- Call using namespace std *after* at least one include of std has
been used.
- In Utilities.h define both const and non-cont overload for operator<<
of mstream (this was the true cause of the Banner display problem).
- No longer use defaults arguments in templates, instead create two
separated overloads.
- Put template static attributes allocation outside of namespaces
(this one I'm not sure how to justify).
- Protect by NDEBUG variables that are only needed in assert().
- In PyInterval getUnion() & getIntersection() we where silently
overwriting the "self" object (interval).
- In Mauka, *do no* overload _postCreate() and add an argument, breaks
the virtual function mechanism. Rename it into _maukaPostCreate().
Idem for SubRow().
- In Katabatic::GCell(), invalidate() overload a Go funtion but is
used for different purpose at this level. Rename it invalidateCt()
(invalidate *ConTents*).
- Miscellaneous small cleanup.
* Change: In bootstrap, in ccb & builder, build by default with Qt4 and
provide a --qt5 command line switch to enable Qt5.
FindBootstrap.cmake now provides a qtX_wrap_cpp() macros to be
independant of the version of Qt being used.
Add all thoses options to the graphical interface to the builder.
* Change: In all the tools using Qt, switch to the qtX_*() macros from
FindBootstrap.cmake.
* Change: In Hurricane, in CellViewer, revert to the Qt4 way of connecting
signal/slots for backward compatibility.
* New: In Isobar::Script, scripts arguments are now passed through a
"keywords" argument (Python: **kw), that is a dictionnary.
To add *any* Python object to that dictionnary, uses the new
method Script::addKwArgument(const char* key, PyObject*).
The "cell" and "editor" variables are now passed that way.
This means that, for the editor, the old way of inserting
a symbol in the module global dictionary is no longer used
and the Python scripts must be modificateds.
* New: In Hurricane::PyCellViewer, create the Python link function
for translation from Hurricane to Python.
* New: In Unicorn, modifications for the new argument passing for
the Python scripts.
* New: In Katabatic, add the ability to decorate some (i.e. few) nets
with a state that indicate to Katabatic & Kite what to do with it.
The possible states are:
1. Fixed : all the wire are in fixed positions. The router cannot
move them and account them as obstacles.
2. ManualGlobalRoute : a user-defined topology is supplied. The
wires still have to be detailed route in "Detailed Pre-Route"
but will be skipped for the global routing and fixed for the
general Detailed route.
3. AutomaticGlobalRoute : ordinary nets, to be global routed then
detail routed.
4. Excluded : do not try to global or detail route thoses nets.
5. MixedPreRoute : mask combining Fixed and ManualGlobalRoute.
Not all nets have this property, only those that needs a special
processing.
To ease the access to the state, it is nested inside a
PrivateProperty in the net (NetRoutingProperty), with an extension
access class (NetRoutingExtension).
* New: In Kite, take account of NetRoutingState. Pointers to the
net's states are strored inside an internal map for faster access.
The property is *not* deleted when Kite is destroyed. The property
will remains until the Net itself is destroyed.
As a consequence, the lists that where passed to high level
function are removed as the information can now be accessed directly
through the net NetRoutingProperty.
* New: In Unicorn, in CgtMain, comply with the update interface.
* New: In documentation, update the User's Guide to explain the Pre-routed
step of Kite.
* New: In Hurricane, in CellViewer, create a simpler API to graft menu
and actions into the menubar. Mainly addToMenu() which take care of
the QAction creation but also locate the relevant QMenu, base on
the Qt object name. Regroup all the widget & action creation inside
the body of the constructor, this way almost all actions can be
removed from the attributes of the CellViewer.
addToMenu() is supplied in three flavors:
1. For C++ callbacks in GraphicToolEngines (with a binded
member function method).
2. For running Python scripts to be used by the plugin system.
3. To insert separator in menus (to give a more homogeneous
look).
Remove the last remnants of Stratus scripts (unificated with basic
Python scripts).
* New: In Hurricane, in PyCellViewer, export the interface to graft
Python scripts into the CellViewer menu tree.
* Change: In Etesian, in GraphicEtesianEngine, use the new API to
graft menus & callbacks into the CellViewer.
* Change: In Mauka, in GraphicMaukaEngine, use the new API to
graft menus & callbacks into the CellViewer.
* Change: In Kite, in GraphicKiteEngine, use the new API to
graft menus & callbacks into the CellViewer.
* New: In Cumulus, install Python scripts as plugins for Unicorn under
<PYTHON_SITE_PACKAGES>/cumulus/plugins/.
* New: In Unicorn, in UnicornGui, make uses of the new API for creating
menus in the CellViewer. Creates the stem menu for the P&R tools.
Add a Python initialization mechanism to read the plugins
installeds into <PYTHON_SITE_PACKAGES>/cumulus/plugins/.
Miscellaneous:
* Change: In <crlcore>, in display.conf use the same display threshold
for both METAL2 & METAL3.
In alliance.conf, the side of VIAs in the gauge is 2l (not 3l).
In kite.conf, separate edge densities for H/V.
* Change: In <Cell>, in flattenNets() use flag as argument, not a
boolean. Do not create rings for clock or supply nets.
* Change: In <DeepNet>, in _createRoutingPads() do not create rings
for clock or supply net (duplicated policy as in Cell::flattenNets()).
* Bug: In <ControllerWidget>, at last find the bad signal disconnect
that was causing ungraceful messages.
* Change: In <knik>, in Edge display occupancy/capacity in the string
name. Improved display progress and debugging capabilities.
Improved exception catch & breakpoint managment:
* Bug: In <PaletteWidget>, in updateExtensions() replace the calls to
deleteLayer() by delete. This cause the widget to be immediatly
erased instead of waiting for the event queue to be completly
processed. This was causing the widget to be left in a incoherent
state when stoping at a breakpoint.
* Bug: In <BreakpointWidget>, in execNoModal(), flush the main event
loop (QApplication::flush()) *before* lauching the *local* event
loop. This is to ensure all widgets are in their final state when
waiting (especially <PaletteWidget>).
* Change: In <ExceptionWidget>, new method catchAllWrapper() to
execute any std::function< void() > function/method with a "try"/
"catch" wraparound and lauch the widget in case something is catch.
* New: In <hurricane>, support for a oberver pattern, backported from
<katabatic> with an Obervable capable of being linked to any
number of Obervers.
* New: In <Cell>, made it observable to detect Cell change, currently
emit two kind of signals:
- Cell::CellAboutToChange : *before* any change.
- Cell::CellChanged : *after* the change has been completed.
* New: In <UpdateSession>, in Go::invalidate() add the Cell owning the
Go to the UPDATOR_STACK (of course the cell is added only once).
In addition, when the Cell is added, send a notification of
Cell::CellAboutToChange to all it's observers. The slave instances
are also invalidated.
Conversely in UpdateSession::_preDestroy() for each invalidated
Cell send a Cell::CellChanged notification to all observer.
The UPDATOR_STACK has been slightly amended to accept Cell which
are not Gos. Prior to this, the Cell where completly excluded from
the UpdateSession mechanism, so it's instances where never actualised
of anything referring to the Cell for that matter.
Note: we use two different mechanisms to transmit a Cell change,
observers and the slave instance map. I think at some point it
should be unificated.
* Change: In <CellViewer>, make it a Cell observer to redraw when the
cell is modificated (also update the palette).
Uses the catchAllWrapper() to protect all critical actions.
* Change: In <GraphicTool>, no longer need of cellPreModificated and
cellPostModificated signals. Now done through the Cell obersvers.
* Change: In <mauka>, <etesian> & <kite> now uses the catchAllWrapper
method for protection (need to split methods in two, to be able
to pass it as argument). No longer emit cellPreModificated and
cellPostModificated.
Support for RoutingGauge in P&R:
* Bug: In <placeandroute.py>, the connection from the internal power
ring to the connectors was not done correctly. Wrong contact layers
leading to a gap.
* Change: In <BuildPowerRails>, detection of the corona signals based
on how the "pck_px" pad is connected. No longer based on name
matching.
* Change: In <placeandroute.py>, support for 2 routing metal only
(3 metal in the technology).
* Change: In <katabatic> & <kite> support for a "top layer" limitation
on the routing gauge, this allows to use only two routing metals
(METAL2 & METAL3). Work in progress.
- 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.
- A complete sweep of cleanup to suppress allmost all compiler warnings.
* ./hurricane/doc/hurricane:
- New: Documentation cleanup and update, particularly on the new Layer
derived classes.
* ./hurricane/src/hurricane,
./hurricane/src/isobar,
./hurricane/src/viewer:
- New: Creation of new methods, more explicit on DbU. Based on a to/from
naming scheme.
- New: Python support extented to include all objects needed to configure
through python scripts.
- Change: Finally understood what's causing the _XOPEN_SOURCE redefinition.
Basically the Python.h must be included first before any other
include. The type-puned problem will remains still (that is a Python
problem, not our own).
- Change: In DisplayStyle, uses shared_ptr for DrawingStyle instead of
custom made reference count.
- In CellViewer, adds a shortcut for launching Stratus scipts: SHIFT+P,S
and one for pure Python scripts: SHIFT+P,P.
- In ExceptionWidget, put the trace inside a QScrollArea so all the call
stack can be viewed regardless of the window's size. It seems that
QFontMetrics has problems to compute the right text size when using
a Qt::RichText enabled widget. Adds some "manual" corrections, hope
they will be sufficiently portables.
- 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.
- Cleanup: In Slot.h, comment out print for debug.
- New: In CellViewer, adds a renameCell() method to "rename" the currently
loaded Cell "in place". Utility function for SaveCellDialog (see below).
- Bug: In PaletteWidget, do not derive from QScrollArea. Instead uses it
as a child widget. This solves the refreshing problem of the Palette.
As a rule now: never derives from anything other than QWidget.
- New: GotoWidget, not having this feature finally unverved me enough for
beeing implemented. You can specify an (x,y) on which the view will
be centered and an aperture which gives the size of the view smallest
side. It's a way of specifying the zoom level (as the zoom is not
meaningful for users). An aperture of "zero" disable that feature,
that is, zoom remains unchanged. The coordinates are integer which
are implicitly expressed in the current mode used by the viewer
(Symbolic, Grid, or Physical in micro-meters).
- Change: Big rewrite of how the Symbolic/Grid/Physical modes are sets
to/from the CellWidget. Impacted widgets are CellWidget &
DisplayFilterWidget.
Main changes are that there is no more "individual" setter/getter for
modes (setSymbolic(), setGrid(), setPhysical(DbU::UnitPower)) but one
with two arguments:
setDbuMode(int mode,DbU::UnitPower)
Signals & slots of the widgets also evolves into:
dbuModeChanged(int mode,DbU::UnitPower)
changeDbuMode (int mode,DbU::UnitPower)
- No more flickering. Was due to a one pixel moving of a two
pixel periodic pattern, which obviously result in a complete
pattern inversion. Now shift by two pixels, hoping there is
no "3 pixels periodic" patterns...
- As a side effect, it introduce a "multiplicator effect" on
mouse movement, but it could be useful (avoid big displacement
of the mouse).
