Alessandro De Laurenzis. That pull request cleaned up the vast
majority of compiler warnings. However, that cleanup exposed a
few additional warnings pointing to errors in the code that needed
fixing. The code now compiles cleanly except for one warning
about redefined CAD_DIR that I have not looked into.
This commit makes the code (mostly) C99-compatible, enabling to compile
it without the -Wno-error=implicit-function-declaration flag. This
way, Magic becomes usable on arm64 architectures, specifically on Apple
computers with M1/M2 SoC.
one is an "off_grid" DRC type, which can be used to check geometry
that is below the manufacturing grid. Normally magic prevents the
grid from being subdivided below the manufacturing grid, but this
limit can be removed and replaced by DRC checks to check for such
errors in a GDS file of unknown origin. The second version looks
for interactions between subcells that end up with intersections
of non-manhattan geometry landing on points that are not on the
database internal grid. Such errors cannot be seen by magic's DRC
engine by definition, and so must be detected while flattening
geometry for the DRC checks.
to stop the search whenever a cell is not found. Used this to implement
a new option for GDS writes, "gds undefined allow|disallow" (default
"disallow") controls whether or not GDS with undefined references will
be allowed to be written. Similarly affects CIF and LEF writes, extraction,
and DRC (when running "drc check" from the top).
