d9e6c78adbCorrected an issue that was caused by early work on extresist: The original version of extresist only worked with 4-terminal FET devices, and handling of devices with fewer terminals was ignored, and never properly dealt with. This commit fixes the issues with devices such as diodes that have fewer terminals.

d8580be739Corrected a problem caused by fixing the "select visible" command with respect to visible/invisible labels and cells. The change inadvertently made the "select area" command option stop selecting labels on the same type as the layers being selected. This has been fixed.

7ecebb5dd6Corrected a stupid omission to set the plane hint during a search in "extresist", which when missing causes the plane to be searched repeatedly from the same point instead of from the last place searched. Can knock down the "extresist" time by up to 50%.

099d513011Corrected the "Pick" button action in the "Library Manager" window; this had two issues: (1) "getcell" was not being called with "child 0 0", leading to child cells that are not placed where expected in relation to a grid snap setting; and (2) "cursor" was assuming internal units and needed that to be explicitly stated using "cursor internal".

e45399d347Yet another optimization on "extresist", to remove the calls to DBPaint() and DBErase(), which are meant as high-level calls from the "paint" and "erase" commands and are not appropriate for low- level tasks like erasing all contacts out of a database. This cut maybe 40 to 50% time off of the resistance extraction.

7a3717b02aAnother performance optimization to "extresist", this one to avoid re-parsing a linked list from the current breakpoint to the end to find all entries pointing to the same node. Instead, the change to be made is saved in a hash table and applied at the following link, so only one pass through the linked list is required.

a062fdcfe0Continued optimizing poorly written routines in "extresist". Changed the "ResDissolveContacts()" routine to avoid running both redundant and useless code. Changed the breakpoint sorting routine from a bubble sort to a merge sort for linked lists longer than 16, as merge sort is more efficient for long lists.

256955f48eCreated alternative algorithms for routines ResParallelCheck() and ResTriangleCheck(). By using hash tables, I reduced ResParallelCheck() from O(N^2) to O(N), and I reduced ResTriangleCheck() from O(N^3) to O(N^2); however, it is a bit better than that because previously there was an N^2 loop over items in the same list, so if one list happened to be very long, then N^2 would be huge; whereas now the N^2 is the length of two lists multiplied together, where both lists would have to be very long to have the same performance impact. It appears that long resistor lists are pathological and rare. For an example pathological case, the extresist runtime has been reduced from hours to seconds.

e5a6cf0df9Handled the case in which environment variable HOME is not set. See github issue tracker issue #490. There were two cases: When running without the Tk console, a NULL value was being passed to a string comparison. When running with the Tk console, two variables were not initialized. Both prolems have been fixed.

0013dda92dResponse to issue #513 in the github issue tracker: The command- line parser does not recognize arguments that are both in the same word and also space separated; this is easy to do from, e.g., a python interpreter by setting an option as a single string as in "-d null"; it is harder to do from the command line, but can be done with quotes, as in 'magic "-d null"'.

85561d0503Corrected an error with the new "tagged" operator when used in "cifinput"; instead of cifSrTiles(), which ignores the "area" argument and searches over the entire plane, it should have been using cifSrTiles2(), which translates the area to CIF coordinates and searches only over that area. Otherwise, everything on the same layer in a cell gets tagged, rather than just connected material.

eb83075e16Modified EXT_DOALL to include EXT_DOUNIQUE. Prior to a recent change, unique node names could only be enforced by running the command "extract unique", and there was no way to ensure that the user would run the command as part of the extraction recipe. Now that it has been changed to an extraction option instead of a separate command, and does not permanently alter labels in the layout like the standalone command version did, it is possible to include the setting in "extract do all", making it run by default, and requiring the user to manually turn it off for certain use cases (which are relatively rare).

bdc0325901Extended the use of "ext2spice resistor tee on" to include DEV_RSUBCKT as well as (previously implemented) DEV_RES. The handling of DEV_RSUBCKT includes checking if the subcircuit has a substrate pin, and zeroing the capacitance to substrate for the resistor node, under the assumption that the parasitics are part of the resistor subcircuit model.

df4ec3ab32Corrects an error that can cause "extresist" to segfault. This is due to moving away from using the node "location" in favor of a drivepoint specified by a port or other connection point. The "location" record can end up at the default value of "infinity", and should not be used to set the area for searches. This fix is in response to issue #502 on the github issue tracker, submitted by Julian Schwarz.
