Bump VERSION to 8.3.645.
magic.wasm can now be built as two variants packaged in the same npm
release: notcl/ (legacy, magic's own parser) and tcl/ (intubun/tcl 9.x
statically linked, commands evaluated by Tcl_EvalEx). The TCL fork is
pinned via npm/tcl.ref and cloned/built by magic itself — the tcl/
checkout is treated as read-only and built out-of-source into
magic/build-tcl-wasm/.
Configure layer:
- New usingTk variable decoupled from usingTcl in scripts/configure.in
+ scripts/configure, so --with-tcl --without-tk is finally a valid
combination. Native Linux Tcl+Tk builds keep their previous behaviour
(both flags default to enabled).
- When usingTk is empty, configure passes -DMAGIC_NO_TK so the small
number of remaining Tk callsites in tcltk/tclmagic.{h,c} compile out,
and TKCOMMON_SRCS / USE_TK_STUBS are omitted from the link.
WASM build orchestration:
- toolchains/emscripten/build-tcl-wasm.sh builds libtcl9.x.a + libtclstub.a
+ tclConfig.sh out-of-source from a pristine intubun/tcl checkout.
- npm/build.sh grew a --variant=<tcl|notcl|both> flag and writes its
outputs into npm/tcl/ and npm/notcl/. It also clones intubun/tcl with
autocrlf=false at the SHA pinned by npm/tcl.ref.
- magic/Makefile (WASM block only): magicWasm.o is now compiled with
DFLAGS_NOSTUB so Tcl_CreateInterp resolves to libtcl9.x directly
before tclStubsPtr is set. magic.js link pulls in LIB_SPECS_NOSTUB
and -ltclstub. After rules.mak include, magic: is a phony alias for
magic.js so the generic ${MODULE} recipe doesn't fight it.
- toolchains/emscripten/defs.mak: add -sUSE_ZLIB=1 (libtcl9 references
zlib), replace -sSTACK_SIZE=N with -Wl,-z,stack-size=N (emcc >=5
rejects the setting form).
- magic/magicWasm.c bootstraps the embedded interp under MAGIC_WRAPPER
(Tcl_CreateInterp -> Tcl_Init -> Tclmagic_Init) and routes
run_command through Tcl_EvalEx.
- magic/magicTop.c: gate MagicVersion/Revision/CompileTime on
!MAGIC_WRAPPER so they don't collide with the copies in
tcltk/tclmagic.c when both objects land in the same wasm binary.
npm package:
- Subpath exports: ".", "./tcl", "./notcl". Default import keeps the
pre-existing non-TCL behaviour for backward compatibility.
- examples/smoke-tcl.mjs exercises the TCL variant.
CI:
- main-wasm.yml clones intubun/tcl at the pinned ref, builds both
variants via npm/build.sh --variant=both, runs the existing notcl
test suite and the new TCL smoke test, and publishes only on a
v<x.y.z>... git tag. Tag name (minus the leading v) becomes the
npm version.
linking it to Tk or X11 graphics. Added new command "display" which
returns the display type, which is good for finding out if the
display is "NULL". Added code to allow the wrapper to be defined
for NULL graphics with the Tk console, the main necessities of which
are to remove the "openwrapper" command, and to return immediately
from a number of tag callback functions.
number from the git repository, which is overall more reliable than
the version number, but mainly to support a common method across the
open source tools for providing information to builds like open_pdks
that may need to know what version of every tool was used for the
build.
with qflow, which wants to launch applications from symbolic links.
The portability of magic now depends only on setting environment
variable CAD_ROOT, but the portability should still be ensured.
By having the build system put in a relative path rather
than an absolute path. Unfortunately, make does not support
computing relative paths manually, so a small bash script is
needed that will do this for us.
- this fixes issue where some of the binary objects would contain an
outdated MAGIC_VERSION if "make clean" was not done after the VERSION
file changes. (e.g., the "Magic VERSION revision REVISION" message in
the wish console and the version requirement checks from a tech file)
SPICE subcircuit definitions from a netlist file and apply the port
order in the netlist to the port labels in the corresponding cell
or cells in the magic database. Also: Corrected an error in the
bloat-all code introduced in a recent commit that can cause a
segfault.
the last couple of days, was left in a state where it keeps appending
".mag" to the filename if "save" or "writeall" is executed more than
once in the same edit session. Also, added ext2sim.sh and ext2spice.sh
to the CLEANS list in tcltk, and added both to .gitignore so they are
not tracked. Removed them from git to stop the current tracking.
now scale with Opts(scale), which is a zoom scalefactor (default 1), and
Opts(toolscale) sets an independent sizing for the toolbar icons, which is
multiplied by the Opts(scale) scalefactor. Also: Added GR_LIBS to the
link options for magicexec and magicdnull, to avoid compile-time problems
on some systems (thank you to Charlene of OpenBSD for the patch!).
and merged the contents into drcmgr.tcl, with a new button in the
DRC manager for saving the DRC contents. Loading is somewhat less
useful since the DRC error tiles are interactive. The DRC manager
still has the issue that every checked edge becomes a separate
entry; this is an artifact of the way the DRC checker works, but
it creates large numbers of error areas, many of which are redundant.
distributed installations, where the immediate installation location
is different from the final installation location, but in the case
where it is not desirable to put the entire install hierarchy as a
subdirectory of DESTDIR.
categorized by error type and scrolled through conveniently. However,
it needs work dealing with finding the actual error bounds. The
"DRC count" counts tiles, which is tile-plane-geometry-specific, and
"DRC listall why" fractures errors both over tiles and over the square
areas that the interactive DRC splits the layout into, for performance.
The DRC error plane needs to be changed to hold different types for
each error class, so that errors can be scanned by boundary instead of
by tile (work to be done).
development had been halted since it was first created back in April.
Version 8.2 is now the official development version, with the first
development push to create a Cairo graphics interface.
