* WIP: added test case, fixed dup problem and '-' shortcut
* WIP: updated DRC doc and could not resist the temptation to fix 'it's' vs. 'its'
* Deep mode also working with select now. Updated tests.
* WIP: added basic feature and tests.
* WIP: provide tests are GSI binding of new antenna check
* Fixed issue #579 (perimeter_only mode for antenna check)
* Updated DRC doc for 'perimeter_only'
While doing this, it was discovered that the problem also
persists for EdgePairs and Texts.
In order to provide a more generic solution, some refactoring
was applied.
* First implementation of the perimeter factor for antenna check, unit tests.
* Bugfix and unit tests for GSI binding of new antenna check version.
* DRC integration of perimeter-enabled antenna check.
* Enhanced DRC doc for antenna rule
In additon, some actions like display of the netlist
browser are suppressed until "final" is true for
"_finish".
TODO: Layout#get_info should never segfault.
The solution is to take intruder instances from as
far as possible in the hierarchy. This provides a
performance improvement in some cases, specifically
if this leads to compression of contexts.
Rerun LVS: a button is provided which allows re-running
the LVS or netlist extraction from the netlist browser.
TODO: a generic concept for triggering the generators
"Partial LVS" is a feature where it's possible to
select a layout subcell - running LVS then will only
compare against the corresponding schematic subcell, not
the whole tree. The magic is done by "align" which will
remove the upper hierarchy part.
Plus: added some missing files
Implementation details:
* scaling factor was introduced in DeviceExtractor::extract
* for easy implementation this is available in "sdbu"
* "sdbu" is made available in GSI
* to test this, the db::compare_netlist had to be enhanced to
exactly check device parameters
* enhancement of LVS script framework and doc updates
1.) tl::Stream now can read from resources
(:<path> URL's)
2.) LVS/DRC templates are kept as resource,
"create_template" uses the URL to read them.
3.) Added samples for LVS
4.) Configured LVS to match sample
- LVS DSL debugging, enhancements
- Allow polygons with holes in L2N
- Spice Reader: was creating too many class objects
- Device class categorizer: allow associating A->C,B-C
- ...
- edge pairs are normalized before turning them into polygons.
This makes flat and deep implementation more consistent.
- deep region and flat regions were not cooperating in geo
checks
- unnamed layers are not registered in make_layer - this
does not make sense and will just hold a fake ref
- tests now use GDS to represent texts after transformation
(with orientation, OASIS can't do this)
- texts are more consistently handled in the tests
- test debug output is not written in the same format
than golden data unless special normalization is
requested.
- a non-orientable polygon was converted to orientable in
a text because this can be represented in GDS consistently
- DRC testsuite uses "polygons" instead of "input" to achieve
identical behavior for deep and flat mode with respect to
texts
- dbRegionTests are updated because texts are not allowed
for non-original layers too
Texts are not only kept inside original layers, but
also inside deep layers. This enables using texts
from DRC.
However, texts in deep layers are kept as markers.
Mostly they are converted back to texts, but the
orientation will be lost.
The change eliminates the need to using Iterators
in DRC instead of original layers and use of
label layers in deep mode.
A drawback is the presence of marker shapes in
deep mode (unless polygon layers are created).
Also, text output to RDB is not supported from
deep layers currently.
- All platforms support native hash values for long long etc.
with the TR1 containers
- Use non-static, function symbols to force linking.
- Debian package is picky about dates so give them some
in Changelog.
The issue is with "dllexport": previously, dllexport was present on
exposed templates tool (= visibility(default) for gcc/clang). This
ensured MacOS compatibility since then the typeinfo is corretly
shared and dynamic_cast/typeid works.
For Windows, the "dllexport" equivalent requires the template
instantiations to be declared "external" which is a coding nightmare.
The solution is to provide separate macros for real (non-specialized,
not explicitly instantiated) templates (.._PUBLIC_TEMPLATE) which
is defined as empty for Windows and "visiblity(default)" for gcc/clang.
1.) Startup issue:
This is solved by making sure templates with virtual functions
are made visible in the DSO. This way, dynamic_cast is possible
across DSO's.
Scary: clang/MacOS wants the forward declarations be declared visible as well.
2.) Menu issue:
The best solution is to have only one QMenuBar. The navigator
now gets a synthetic menu bar composed of QToolButtons.
Refactoring:
* more consistent behavior of output redirection
* ut library was refactored and split into several
.h/.cc
* concept of long runners introduced
* long runners can be skipped with "test_is_long_runner()"
* same for editable/non-editable mode tests
