Release Notes for gerbv-2.6.2
========================================================================
This is a minor patch release on top of gerbv-2.6.1. The change
is to property create the tarball with the build framework so that
the automake/autoconf/etc generated files are included.
========================================================================
Release Notes for gerbv-2.6.0
========================================================================
The following is a summary of the changes which went into gerbv-2.6.0.
For a complete list of changes, refer to ChangeLog. This release
is primarily a bug fix release.
Unsorted entries in PLIST files have generated a pkglint warning for at
least 12 years. Somewhat more recently, pkglint has learned to sort
PLIST files automatically. Since pkglint 5.4.23, the sorting is only
done in obvious, simple cases. These have been applied by running:
pkglint -Cnone,PLIST -Wnone,plist-sort -r -F
At the same time, fix a symbol conflict by using zlib from pkgsrc
rather than a private copy

Release notes for pcb-4.0.1
========================================================================
Dear Users,
This release fixes a number of bugs.
Kind regards,
The pcb development team
Contributors
------------
The following authors contributed to the 4.0.1 release:
- Milan Prochac
- Charles Parker
- Dan McMahill
- Sergey Alyoshin
- Igor2
- Peter Clifton
- bert
Please note that names are in no particular order and all e-mail
addresses have been removed for privacy.
User experience improvements
----------------------------
- reorchestrated the closing of the command window to not crash.
- only invalidate the screen after changes to the crosshair or mark are
complete.
Plugins
-------
- none
Exporters
---------
- fix for gcode dimensions.
- added a regression test for the IPC-D-356 exporter.
- added more documentation for the IPC-D-356 netlist exporter.
Footprints library
------------------
- add macro with more programmability for 2 pin axial components. Use
this to add a few IPC-7251 compliant footprints for axial inductors,
horizontally mounted. Use this in turn for the TDK B82145A RF chokes
family.
- add toko category and the 7P variable inductors.
- gen_geda_*.awk were nearly identical to gen_*.awk so add 2 lines to
geda.inc so we can use the same script for everything. Verified that
pcblib-newlib builds with identical results before/after.
- for the horizontally mounted axial macro add the missing bits for
marking polarity on parts like diodes.
- add PKG_RADIAL_MM100 macro for doing more general metric 2 pin radial
packages.
- add some IPC radial capacitor footprints and use those to create some
united chemicon footprints.
- add DO-41 diode package, horizontally mounted.
- add PKG_MTHOLE_GENERIC macro for fairly generic mounting holes. Use
this to define IPC mounting holes for #4 and #6 machine screws with
pan heads or flat washers for both "tight" (board < 4") and "loose"
(board > 4") fits.
- add TO-263 footprint.
- add some notes about m4 library development.
- fix problem in some possible invocations of the generic mounting hole
macro. All footprints pass syntax checks again.
- remove an extra empty attribute which is not needed and causes
warnings in the mounting hole macro.
- fix clearance on the Toko 7P footprint.
- in the mounting hole macro, change the calculation of the pad size for
the support vias to make them as large as possible without actually
changing the copper (the support vias are covered by the main pad).
This does not affect the fabricated board but it does remove some
false positive DRC complaints.
Developer experience improvements
---------------------------------
- allow translators to change number of tabs in message.
- In the test suite, check for a working X display using xhost before
running action script tests
- match() with 3 arguments is a gawk extension. Rework the code to avoid
using a 3 argument call to match() in one spot. Lets the script run
with gawk or NetBSD's awk (20121220). Verified that the generated
result is identical to the previous gawk result using both gawk and
NetBSDs awk.
- change from AC_FD_CC to AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD
- removed the antifork abomination.
- disabled one of the checks used to deal with older gdlib installs on
some linux systems when building under cygwin as the test has
problems. Repairs building for mingw under cygwin.
- when building under cygwin, create a pcbtest.bat batch file that
allows testing the compiled pcb without installing. This is somewhat
analogous to the pcbtest.sh script generated on linux and other
unix-like systems.
- cleanup the win32 build script a good bit. An important change is
that instead of blindly installing all of the mingw cross system root
files, only install a set of listed ones. This not only reduces the
size of the windows installer but makes sure we have a more repeatable
build and know what we are actually bundling into the installer.
- fixed the Attribute deletion code.
Notes for early adapters
------------------------
- none
Changed dependencies
--------------------
- none
Fixed and committed Launchpad bug reports
-----------------------------------------
#700193 Append branch to version string.
#917308 m4lib_to_newlib.sh does not work with mawk.
#1528040 Gcode export smaller pad size.

#1659061 Compile warnings when DEBUG symbol is defined.
#1660058 Several i18n fixes.
#1672886 Crash when reopening command entry window in gtk.
#1674133 Last action executed when escaping from command entry.
#1682654 Drawing area redrawn twice when crosshair moves.
========================================================================
3.3.86 03oct17 Added recurse import function (found before only in the hier
search) into the SST.
Removed obsolete bundle functionality from SST as recurse
import more accurately imports recursively.
Made entrybox taller (using -1) as recent versions of
gnome have taller window titlebars and the widget was not
tall enough.
3.3.84 03sep17 Updated FSDB reader with experimental FST tree build
routines for faster init.
Removed warnings found when compiling with -Wshadow.
Automatically enable --comphier for FST/FSDB/AE2 if facility
count reaches 500000. This is to reduce memory consumption
for traces with very many signals. Added disable_auto_comphier
to override this behavior.
Fix null pointer sent to gtk_clipboard_set_text() for
mouseover to clipboard cut ops.
- Fix issue of raise exception when sweep along with cornered line
- osx ifx: Visualization, Font_FontMgr - do not look for fonts.dir on OS X
- fix external linkage error in BRepBuilderAPI_Copy
-----------------------------

close/reopens of regex search widget.
Update local libz to current version.
-----------------------------
3.3.82 02jul17 Get sys_fst working with VCS VPI.
Added string concatenations for vectors.
Added asserts to ghwlib.c to make scan-view clean.
----------------------------

- prevent DRAWEXE from being added to OCE_LIBRARIES (issue #660)
- Fix warnings with VTK 7.1
- Fix missing include and other minor header issues
- Fix clockget_time detection on osx
-----------------------------
3.3.80 17mar17 Added "/View/Mouseover Copies To Clipboard" menu option to
allow copying values into the clipboard so they can be pasted
into text editors, etc.
----------------------------
3.16.7 (2017/03/21)
Bug fixes:
FS#1560 - Main menu not selectable (Ubuntu 16.04, Unity)
FS#1561 - Edit > Drawing Preferences: menu missing (macOS, French locale)
------------------------------
(from: http://klayout.de/development.html)
Version 0.24.10
Release date: 2017-04-01
Features:
Enhancements: New method CellView#is_dirty? This method indicates
that a cell view needs saving
Bugfix: DEF reader was not able to read routing Routed segments
with vias plus continued wiring were not read. Instead an error
message was shown saying "Invalid orientation specification"
Bugfix: Setting "technology-data" configuration property did not
work Reading or writing the "technology-data" configuration
property is the only way to access technology data from a
script. Hence it's important that this property can be set. With
this patch, "technology-data" can be set to an XML string which
has the same format than the one stored within the configuration
file.
Bugfix: Reader issues with some RVE files The RVE reader could not
read files with cell names containing hyphens (like "A-B").
Bugfix: Inplace operators are now working in Python too For
example "r1 += r2" was not working (r1 and r2 are pya.Region
objects for example).

SOLVESPACE is a parametric 3d CAD program. Applications include:
modeling 3d parts - draw with extrudes, revolves, and Boolean
(union / difference) operations
modeling 2d parts - draw the part as a single section, and export
DXF, PDF, SVG; use 3d assembly to verify fit
3d-printed parts - export the STL or other triangle mesh expected
by most 3d printers
preparing CAM data - export 2d vector art for a waterjet machine
or laser cutter; or generate STEP or STL, for import into
third-party CAM software for machining
mechanism design - use the constraint solver to simulate planar
or spatial linkages, with pin, ball, or slide joints
plane and solid geometry - replace hand-solved trigonometry and
spreadsheets with a live dimensioned drawing

Release notes for pcb-4.0.0
========================================================================
Dear Users,
It has been quite some time since the last snapshot of pcb was released
in March 2014.
Since then quite a lot of bugs were fixed and new features added, below
this introduction a summary is given of the improvements and additions
since the latest snapshot "pcb-20140316".
This release represents over 480 commits (mostly bugfixes and code
refactoring) and as such this summary clearly is not complete.
This pcb release 4.0.0 has a significant change in the major version
number.
This is done to make a fresh start and to get away from the 1.99z
version with YYYYMMDD snapshots.
Kind regards,
The pcb development team
User experience improvements
----------------------------
- added the command-line option --save-metric-only.
- added escaping of Attribute values.
- added a translation of the Getting Started with PCB for pt_BR.
- added translatable tooltips for toolbar buttons.
- added "Report net length" to Menu -> Info in Gtk.
- added a script for generating a key binding list.
- added tooltips in the GTK HID UI.
- the puller no longer crosses unplated holes.
- solder/component outer layer names changed to top/bottom.
- pcb now uses a tilde instead of a dash for backup filenames.
- corrections in the user documentation.
- the position "delta" display no longer forces the GTK HID window to
grow.
- write time in ASCII locale into exported files.
- allow for up to 10000 dpi on png exporter output.
Plugins
-------
- added smartdisperse for dispersing elements better, contributed by
Ben Jackson.
- added relocate for relocating elements, contributed by Jean Richard.
- added RenumberBlock() and RenumberBuffer(), contributed by DJ Delorie.
- added teardrops(), contributed by DJ Delorie.
Exporters
---------
- added a netlister conforming to the IPC-D-356 standard, contributed by
Jerome Marchand.
- changed "as-shown" to "screen-layer-order" in the png and eps hids.
Footprints library
------------------
- added a SC88A footprint.
- added a LQFP80-10 footprint.
- added QFN24_5 and TQFN24_5 footprints.
- added a SOD523 footprint.
- the SOT325 package had a wrong numbering.
- renamed the SOT325 footprint to SOT353.
- in the ALF footprint the drill holes were too tight.
- an infinite loop in the SIL m4 macro was fixed.
Developer experience improvements
---------------------------------
- made a start with adding Doxygen developer documentation tags in the
source files.
A pcb.dox configuration file is available in the "doc/doxygen"
directory so developers can build the documentation there by invoking
"doxygen pcb.dox" from the CLI.
This is not done by configuring with --enable-docs, which is solely
reserved for the generation of User documentation.
- added numerous fixes in the win32 target.
Notes for early adapters
------------------------
In the git repository two tags have been added to allow for checking
out of pcb-4.0.0 at the branch point (git checkout pcb-4.0.0-base) or at
the release point (git checkout pcb-4.0.0-RELEASE).
This is in line with tagging done in former snapshots.
Changed dependencies
--------------------
- autoconf 2.60 --> 2.69.
- gettext 0.14 --> 0.19.3.

Release notes for EAGLE 7.7.0
=============================
* Licensing:
- Update of various spots in EAGLE regarding the license changes introduced
by Autodesk: Standard, Premium, Ultimate, Express and Educational.
The 30 day trial license has been removed.
* ULPs:
- Added 'manufacturing.ulp' provided by Autodesk. It supports an upload of EAGLE
drawing files to 'circuits.io' in order to generate manufacturing data which
can then be downloaded. The ULP is accessible as an icon in the board editor.
- Added 'ecadio.ulp' provided by Autodesk. It supports an upload of EAGLE boards
to 'ecad.io' in order to generate a 3D PCB for use in MCAD systems.
The ULP is accessible as an icon in the board editor.
* UI improvements:
- Added Option.SignalNames to display the signal names on the signal wires
and on the connected pads and SMDs.
It can be set in the Settings dialog under 'Misc/Display signal names'.
- The options Option.SignalNames, Option.PadNames and Option.ViaLength are
set to 'On' by default.
* Miscellaneous:
- Improved visibility of scrollbars for common window styles on Linux.
- Silently ignoring double references to a contact within a signal when loading
a board file.
- CAM Processor: when running 'Process Job' with more than one section,
it is checked if the job covers the Layer Setup only partially.
- The file locking option has been switched off by default. Use 'Backup/Locking'
under 'Options' in Control Panel to turn it on.
- Update of EAGLE logo to the new appearance since Autodesk acquisition.
- Update of Hungarian translation (GUI without help and manual).
* Bugfixes:
- Fixed UL functions strsplit() and lookup() to handle unusual UTF8 characters
as separator.
- Fixed potential crash of the 64 bit versions when loading EAGLE drawings
from old format (e.g. V3.55).
- Image export to TIFF format in monochrome: fixed a regression regarding the
compression method.
- The selected object is no longer removed from the group after running a ULP
started through 'SET CONTEXT Object ...'; the ULP might want to use this
one-object group afterwards with e.g. 'exit("move (>@)")'.
- Ensuring valid move of polygon wires or an entire polygon if selecting a
wire with 'SET CONTEXT Wire ...' or using setgroup() in a ULP.
- Fixed history of dlgStringEdit to become case sensitive.
- Fix for refresh of images in Control Panel preview on Windows.
- Added a check for identical pinrefs when loading a schematic to avoid a
possible crash.
- Fixed deleting/splitting busses with portrefs involved: it could happen that
new port connections couldn't be established anymore.
- Fixed selecting an end of a wire with the context menu.
- Fix for ULP function ingroup() returning true for too many objects after
UNDOing of transferring a group to another sheet.

Commit Log => https://github.com/LibreCAD/LibreCAD/commits/2.1.2
This large commit accomplishes the following:
1) Switch USE_LANGUAGES=ada to require lang/gcc5-aux (gcc 5.4) instead
of lang/gcc-aux (gcc 4.9.2) on gcc.mk
2) Bump affected ports and fix paths as necessary
3) Upgrade devel/gprbuild to the latest release
- No longer requires lang/gnat_util
- gprslave requires gcc6-aux, so it was disabled for now
4) Fix lang/gnat_util but set PKG_SKIP_REASON
- It has no further purpose in the pkgsrc tree
- It has no practical purpose outside of the pkgsrc tree
- Indicate intent to remove from tree in Jan. 2017
5) Set devel/GPS as failed with PKG_FAIL_REASON
- This version of GPS is several years old and at the time they were
strongly tied to compiler.
- Latest release of GPS require gcc6-aux (not available) and several
new and complex dependencies
- maintainer (me) has no interest to continue supporting it
- Leaving GPS in place until Jan 2017 to give another person chance to
upgrade and take over support
- Latest version in FreeBSD Ports Collection as a reference point
-----------------------------
3.3.77 03oct16 Updated documentation to include an appendix on FST
implementation details.
Removed '!A || (A && B)' is equivalent to '!A || B' redundant
condition checks where found in source.
Added hier_ignore_escapes rc variable.
Dynamic resizing tweaks for when it is turned off.
Added HUWL-? value types to signal_change_list() to keep GHW
files from crashing Tcl scripts.

upstream changelog
==================
What’s new in MyHDL 0.9
Python 3 support
Experimental Python 3 support has been added to MyHDL 0.9. This was a major effort to modernize the code. As a result, Python 2 and 3 are supported from a single codebase.
See Python 3 Support for more info.
Interfaces (Conversion of attribute accesses)
Rationale
Complex designs often have many signals that are passed to different levels of hierarchy. Typically, many signals logically belong together. This can be modelled by an interface: an object that has a number of Signal objects as its attributes. Grouping signals into an interface simplifies the code, improves efficiency, and reduces errors.
The following is an example of an interface definition:
class Complex:
def __init__(self, min=-2, max=2):
self.real = Signal(intbv(0, min=min, max=max))
self.imag = Signal(intbv(0, min=min, max=max))
Although previous versions supported interfaces for modeling, they were not convertible. MyHDL 0.9 now supports conversion of designs that use interfaces.
The following is an example using the above Complex interface definition:
a,b = Complex(-8,8), Complex(-8,8)
c = Complex(-128,128)
def complex_multiply(clock, reset, a, b, c):
@always_seq(clock.posedge, reset=reset)
def cmult():
c.real.next = (a.real*b.real) - (a.imag*b.imag)
c.imag.next = (a.real*b.imag) + (a.imag*b.real)
return cmult
Solution
The proposed solution is to create unique names for attributes which are used by MyHDL generators. The converter will create a unique name by using the name of the parent and the name of the attribute along with the name of the MyHDL module instance. The converter will essentially replace the ”.” with an “_” for each interface element. In essence, interfaces are supported using hierarchical name expansion and name mangling.
Note that the MyHDL convertor supports interfaces, even though the target HDLs do not. This is another great example where the convertor supports a high-level feature that is not available in the target HDLs.
See also
For additional information see the original proposal mep-107.
Other noteworthy improvements
ConcatSignal interface
The interface of ConcatSignal was enhanced. In addition to signals, you can now also use constant values in the concatenation.
std_logic type ports
toVHDL() has a new attibute std_logic_ports. When set, only std_logic type ports are used in the interface of the top-level VHDL module.
Development flow
The MyHDL development flow has been modernized by moving to git and github for version control. In addition, travis has set up so that all pull requests are tested automatically, enabling continuous intergration.
Acknowledgments
The Python 3 support effort was coordinated by Keerthan Jaic, who also implemented most of if. Convertible interfaces were championed by Chris Felton, and implemented by Keerthan Jaic.
MyHDL development is a collaborative effort, as can be seen on github. Thanks to all who contributed with suggestions, issues and pull requests.
It's a rename of cad/verilog to a better name.
Updated DESCR for new package:
Icarus Verilog is intended to compile ALL of the Verilog HDL as described in
the IEEE-1364 standard. Of course, it's not quite there yet. It does currently
handle a mix of structural and behavioral constructs.
Icarus Verilog is not aimed at being a simulator in the traditional sense, but
a compiler that generates code employed by back-end tools.
No objections to rename from <gdt>
pkgsrc changes:
- note GitHub tags (but not use them for now)
- remove conflict with nonexistent verilog-current
- install additional documentation in share/doc/ivl (not share/ivl)
- drop DESTDIR gymnastics - build works without it
- (re)enable gperf dependency
- regenerate buildlink3.mk
- drop patches/patch-lexor_keyword.cc - no longer needed
- patches/patch-vpi_Makefile partially fixed upstream - rest not needed
upstream changelog
==================
Probably the only notes available:
Here are the release notes for Icarus Verilog release branch 10. The 10
release is a huge improvement over the 0.9 release series, in every
aspect. Much more of the Verilog and SystemVerilog language is supported,
many bugs have been fixed, and performance has improved. The changes
(improvements!) are so numerous that there is no point attempting to
enumerate them.
-- http://iverilog.wikia.com/wiki/Release_Notes_Icarus_Verilog_10
Local changes:
- set LICENSE (gnu-gpl-v2)
- replace DEPENDS of verilog to blk3
- stop replacing shebang for WISH - no longer needed
- stop helping to find tclConfig.sh and tkConfig.sh - no longer needed
- comment rationale for -DUSE_INTERP_RESULT (TCL/TK compatibility)
- drop patch-src_lxt2__read.c - fixed upstream (differently)
- comment and regenerate patch-src_lxt2__read.h
Upstream changelog (partial changes prior 0.7 not known)
==================
0.7.10
Stable release covered-0.7.10 made. This release updates the FST library to the latest version which contains some fixes and enhancements.
Stable release covered-0.7.9
11/21/2010 01:03 AM Filed in: Releases
Stable release covered-0.7.9 made. This release is a bug fix and minor feature enhancement release. Here are the details:
Cleaned up error messages emitted from the clang utility.
Updated GUI to use the ttk styled widgets for a more uniform look and allows the user to change the overall look of the GUI using a preference item.
Handling issue where a CDD file was created in a different directory and we attempt to load it in a different environment. Previously, a stack trace was emitted rather than just the user error message.
Updated copyright dates to include 2010
Added FST dumpfile scoring (new -fst option added to the score command to accommodate this option).
Adding support for "wire real" and associated code to Verilog parser.
Fixing issue with memory coverage.
Fixing bug 3054545. When a merged CDD file was used in an exclude command, a segmentation fault would occur.
Added support for constant assignment to reals.
Added support for "parameter integer" and "parameter real".
Added parsing support for the $fopenw system task.
Added support for performing +: and -: part selection on the left-hand-side of assignment expressions.
Fixed various memory overrun and memory leak issues that caused instability issues within the GUI.
Fixed GUI combinational logic issue where incorrect highlighting/underlining was occurring for uncovered expressions.
Fixed GUI issue with next/previous button traversal for combinational logic.
Enhanced the regression suite to verify all of the new features mentioned above.
Updated user guide HTML output to include the Covered banner to the top of each page.
User guide and man pages have been updated per these changes.
On a side note, active work on Covered's development branch(es) has stopped indefinitely. I plan to support the current feature set in the 0.7.x branch with possible minor enhancements as requested. Please feel free to continue to send me e-mail and/or submit bug reports against the 0.7.x stable releases.
Stable release covered-0.7.8
03/24/2010 10:20 PM Filed in: Releases
Stable release covered-0.7.8 made. This release is primarily a bug fix release, but it does contain a few new
minor features and Verilog language enhancements. Here are the details:
Fixed bug 2912587. Using the -f option with the merge command was causing errors.
Fixed bug 2912679. If the GUI was invoked (i.e., covered report -view) and an error in command-line parsing occurred, Covered segfaulted.
Added ability to specify the CDD on the report command-line when starting the GUI (i.e., covered report -view foobar.cdd) which will automatically load the specified CDD files into the GUI on startup. Feature request 2912698.
Fixed bug 2925756. An expression surrounded by the parenthesis could cause a segmentation fault when parsing.
Support has been added for NC-Verilog VPI usage.
Fixed bug 2926579. Changing from a known value to an X value should cause no change in toggle coverage; however, when we transition back to a known value and it differs from the previously known value, we record a toggle coverage change. Example: 0 -> X -> 0 (no change in coverage), 0 -> X -> 1 (change in coverage).
Fixed bug 2927285. Segmentation faults could occur when excluding FSM and combinational logic cases.
Added support for the $clog system function call.
Fixed bug 2929948. Assignments to a concatentation of signals could lead to segmentation fault.
Fixed issue in the LXT2 reader that resulted in a memory leak.
Fixed bug 2933112. Added full support for out-of-bounds assignment.
Added new -T global option that provides a "terse" output which outputs the Covered header and warnings/errors only (less output than using none of the global output verbosity options). Feature request 2952492.
Fixed bug 2960887. Adds support for creating a definition which contains no user value (i.e., `define FOO). Covered was incorrectly assigning a value of 1 to these types of defines.
Fixed bug 2958529. Zero width replications are now supported by Covered (i.e., {0{a & b}})
Fixed bug 2974860. Fixed issue with FSM state input/output variables being output to an ASCII report file correctly.
Added ability to allow the "trans" parameter to Covered FSM attributes to contain additional characters after it. Some simulators don't like Verilog attributes having the same name for multiple parameters. Feature request 2976039.
User guide has been updated per these changes.
Development release covered-20091126
11/26/2009 10:10 PM Filed in: Releases
Development release covered-20091126 made. This is a bug fix release only.

Fixed bug 2881869. Fixed a stack overflow issue in the gen_item_resolve function that would cause segmentation faults when too many items were being generated within a single generate block.
Fixed bug 2882433. Fixed the "ERROR! Parameter used in expression but not defined in current module" error when a generated module instance has a parameter override of a parameter with the same name as the parameter within the module that contains the generate block.
Stable release covered-0.7.6
08/24/2009 10:12 PM Filed in: Releases
Stable release covered-0.7.6 made. This is a bug fix release only.

Fixed bug 2808818. If a generate variable name collided with a reg/wire name, Covered was not emitting an error.
Fixed bug 2808820. If no signal was used from the dumpfile and at least one signal needs information from the dumpfile, Covered needed to signal a user error.
Fixed bug 2812321. Parameterized/generated modules could get incorrect coverage calculated for them.
Fixed bug 2812495. Fixed a crash issue. There is another part to this bug report that is not fixed, however.

Development release covered-20090802
08/02/2009 10:19 PM Filed in: Releases
Development release covered-20090802 made. This development release adds several performance enhancements and bug fixes to the new inlined code coverage flow, including the following:
Adding support for $random and $urandom system calls to inlined coverage.
Includes all fixes made to the stable 0.7.5 release.
Adding support for $value$plusargs system calls to inlined coverage.
Fixing issue with generated IF statements.
Added user documentation for inlined coverage flow and score options.
Fixing issue with generated code interrupting comma-separated assign statements.
Performed code simplification and performance improvement with the way statements were handled internally.
Removed unnecessary calls to simulation functions when using inlined code coverage (this added a performance penalty).
Improved performance of inlined code generator for sizing generated signals.
Fixed memory indexing issues related to memory coverage.
Added support for static function and static ternary operators for inlined code coverage.
Added code to differentiate functions used statically and not to do the right thing for inlined code coverage accumulation.
Added vcd_diff script which checks the dumpfile output from non-inlined and inlined design files to verify that the inlined code generator does not change the result. This check is now a part of all inlined regression runs.
Made several performance improvements to the VCD file reader. The reader is now 10-20% faster.
Added support for Verilator regressions runs and ported a couple of diagnostics to Verilator format.
Adding check to make sure that a CDD file without inlined mode set that reads a VCD file containing inlined coverage data emits an error to the user and exits gracefully.
Added -inline-comb-depth score option to allow the user to specify a shallower combinational coverage depth to be generated -- improving inlined simulation and coverage performance.
For Verilator runs, inserted pragmas around intermediate combinational logic expression signals to exclude them from being output to VCD files. This improves simulation and coverage performance for Verilator runs (other simulators that have a VPI that automatically remove these signals from generating change callbacks).
Performing code replace of some actual code with pre-calculated intermediate expression values for further simulation performance improvements.
Added "e" option to -inline-metrics which allows event coverage to be turned on/off independently of other combinational logic coverage. This allows further simulation and coverage performance improvements (especially for Verilator runs).
Added optimization that causes code generation to be skipped for assertion files when assertion coverage is not required.
Full regressions now runs cleanly with all code changes.
Stable release covered-0.7.4
06/17/2009 10:21 PM Filed in: Releases
Stable release covered-0.7.4 made. This is a bug fix release only.
Updated regression files for the new 2.4 version of the OVL.
Fixed bug 2804585. Memory reads in LHS part selects were not being marked for memory coverage.
Fixed issue with VPI usage in a VCS simulation with generate statements.
Fixed bug 2805191. Automatic tasks/functions that manipulate variables outside of the task/function can cause incorrect toggle coverage for those signals.
Fixed bug 2806855. Generate blocks generating module instantiations could lead to score command errors (segfaults, internal assertion errors, etc.)
Stable release covered-0.7.3
06/04/2009 10:22 PM Filed in: Releases
Stable release covered-0.7.3 made. This primarily fixes a few bugs in the compile of Covered "out of the box". It seems that even with the regression testbench, things can still slip through the cracks :( Anyhow, please use this release instead of the 0.7.2 release.
Stable release covered-0.7.2
05/09/2009 10:23 PM Filed in: Releases
Stable release covered-0.7.2 made. This is primarily a bug fix release with a few new features added to the CLI. Here are the details of the changes.
Fixed bug 2791651. Memory deallocation errors occurred when syntax errors were being reported by the parser.
Fixed bug 2791599. Whitespace prior to a `line or #line directive were not being handled properly.
Fixed bug 2794588. If a module was specified in a -v option after its directory was specified by the -y option to the score command, the module was not found for parsing.
Fixed bug 2794684. If a normal (not generate) case statement within a generate block will output the case expression to be output to the CDD more than once, leading to internal assertion errors when the CDD file is read.
Fixed bug 2795088. When a CDD file is opened from the wizard GUI window, the open file window can be placed behind the wizard window. Instead the wizard window should disappear once a selection button has been clicked.
Fixed bug 2795086. If the user clicked on the global exclusion reason listbox when it is empty, a Tcl/Tk error message box was raised.
Fixed bug 2795089. If the GUI detailed combinational logic window is used to view several expressions one after the other, Covered can segfault.
Fixed bug 2795583. Score command segfaults when a module is instantiated within a generate block and overrides a parameter value within the module.
Fixed bug 2795640. Variables instantiated within a generate block caused issues with Covered when simulated with VCS.
Fixed bug where memory elements being assigned via non-blocking assignments were not being evaluated, leading to incorrect coverage output.
CLI updates/fixes:
When the 'debug on' command is specified, a line specifying that the debug mode is now on is output (previously nothing was output (because the debug mode was off).
Changed the 'debug on' command to 'debug less' and 'debug more' where the prior only outputs the executed statements and timestep information during simulation while the latter outputs what 'debug on' used to output (extremely verbose).
Fixed bug 2795209. When an unknown CLI command was specified, a memory error occurred.
Fixed bug 2795215. Status bar was attempting to be output during simulation when debug mode was turned on. This created some unreadable/messy output.
Changed the 'goto ' command to 'goto time '.
Added 'goto line [:]' command which simulates until the specified line number is about to be simulated.
Added 'goto expr ' command which simulates until the given expression evaluates to a value of true.
Added support for handling the Ctrl-C interrupt when the score command is simulating with the -cli option specified. In this case, simulation will immediately stop and return a CLI prompt which will allow the user to continue interacting with the simulation.
Updated user guide documentation to include the changes made to the CLI.
Stable release covered-0.7.1
05/07/2009 10:24 PM Filed in: Releases
Stable release covered-0.7.1 made. This is a bug fix release only. Here are the details:
Fixed bug 2782473. CDD files being merged from different testbenches but with similar leading hierarchy (but different top-level modules) which would lead to internal assertion errors.
Fixed bug 2785453. Wires declared in generated named scopes were not handled correctly by Covered in VPI mode of operation, leading to inaccurate coverage information.
Fixed bug 2786986. An always block with a part select in the sensitivity list was triggering on the entire signal change rather than the specific part select, leading to a potential degradation in performance and inaccuracy in coverage information.
Allow time variable types to be included for coverage.
Fixing permission issue with the install-sh script that some people would get after first downloading and installing.
Updated README and INSTALL files to be more accurate.
Fixed coverage accuracy issue for code that uses variable part selects in LHS of expressions.
Stable release covered-0.7
04/26/2009 10:24 PM Filed in: Releases
Stable release covered-0.7 made. This is a significant improvement over the 0.6 release, providing Verilog language enhancements, significant score optimizations, new rank and exclude commands, an enhanced merging capability, a multitude of GUI enhancements, a complete overhaul of the user documentation, many bug fixes, and much more.
to make it build with newer boost library.
Changes since 4.0.1:
Do not allow spaces in component name (value field) in
component library editor, in dialogs (Edit field, Create component).
Remove front silkscreen default setting for PTH and NPTH pads.
OSX: back port touchpad support from development branch.
Add support for optional touchpad panning (merge of rev. 6586 from
development branch)
OSX: legacy canvas rendering speed improvements.
PolyLine.cpp: NormalizeAreaOutlines now removes null segments.
Remove support for in processing setting of ld library path.
Eeschema: make footprint and datasheet initially invisible, when creating a
component.
Make color names translatable in color selection dialog.
Mark locked tracks with 'L' letter in status field.
Added 'Reset Grid Origin' hot key (GAL).
Add support for PCB and footprint format versioning
Highlight a net when crossprobing with eeschema and highlight net tool
is enabled.
Make DRC markers not editable with the standard tools (GAL).
Draw arrows for DRC markers (GAL).
and lots of bug fixes.
There has been a lot of development since the previous version in
pkgsrc. DWG read/write support and SVG export are major features,
along with moving to Qt4 and onwards. The QCAD toolbar is no longer
supported, and the program is faster in operation than the previous
pkgsrc version.
Apart from the github commit log which is overly detailed, the
previous release information with some change logs is at

------------------------------------
3.3.75 02aug16 Fix crash when -S and -W are used in tandem.
3.3.76 13aug16 Fix for --disable-tcl in ./configure caused by 3.3.75 fix.
Crash fix in fstapi.c on read value at time accessing of
FST files that use new dynamic aliases, FastLZ, or LZ4. This
primarily affects rtlbrowse.
for QCAD 3. This is now provided as a bunch of archives
for different categories but I have merged them into a
common package as we had before and the package version
is the date of the latest update.
QCAD has been largely rewritten since the previous version
(QCAD 2) was updated in pkgsrc, meaning that the changes are
vast. From the authors website:
QCAD 3 comes with a new and improved CAD engine which improves
performance (spatial index) and allows for advanced property
editing and future extensions (dynamic properties). The other
major addition is a powerful and complete ECMAScript interface.
New interactive tools can be developed with a few lines of
ECMAScript but even entire new applications can be developed
using QCAD technology. QCAD 3 is also the first QCAD version
that fully supports the DWG format as well as various different
versions of the DXF format.
The complete ChangeLog is at http://www.qcad.org/en/changelog
These are for QCAD 2 and will be no longer required for
QCAD 3 which I am preparing as it has the equivalent
built in and a more comprehensive user manual online, or
you can buy a book from the author.
-----------------------------
3.3.74 27jul16 Fix for when a signal name is used as a hierarchy name at the
same level of scope. (Affects fsdb.)
Added --rcvar command line option to insert rc variable changes
individually without needing to point to a configuration file.
Change to combine traces down/up routines to handle 2D vector
name generation.
Allow FSDB files to contain ".gz" and ".bz2" suffixes as the
libnffr loader can handle those.
If a variable is declared in the dumpfile as an integer, then
it is imported to the waveform display as an integer instead of
a hex value. This works for dump file formats that show the
datatype in the SST window.
Added code that should prevent the primary marker from
disappearing unexpectedly as well as dynamic resizing being
stuck in the unset marker width.
-------------------------
- v0.9
Almost version 1.0...
This version introduces new translation and copy features
added by John Bell. A new flag for joining polygons before
offsetting them has also been included.
- v0.8.1 Faster boolean and offset
This release introduces the Clipper library for better
performance on boolean and offset operations on polygons.
Compiled Windows binaries are contributed by @johnlb.
- v0.7.1 First GitHub release
Minor structural changes since version 0.7.
Compiled Windows binaries for Python 3.5 are contributed by
@johnlb.
Gdspy is a Python module for creating GDSII stream files, usually CAD
layouts. It includes a layout viewer for the geometries created, and
it can also be used to import and merge GDSII files.
-----------------------------
Version 0.24.8
Release date: 2016-06-19
- Bugfix: XOR and different or big database units: With
tiling, XOR between two layouts with different database
units was still not working correctly. Also, when the
database unit was larger than 1nm, the XOR feature was
dropping results sometimes when tiling was on.
- Enhancements: progress bar shown also for "-z" mode
scripts: The solution of 0.24.7 has been modified to avoid
annoying progress bar windows popping up in
background-window mode: Now, progress bar windows will
only pop up if an active main window is present. This will
enable progress bars for scripts that open their own main
windows but still keep the application GUI-less when the
script does not do so.
- Bugfix: Crash on empty panel: When "New/Panel" is used a
view without a layout is created. An attempt to create
layout on such panels crashed the application.
- Bugfix: LEF reader now can read PIN statements including VIA
- Bugfix: Polygon smoothing was not working properly in some
cases Previously the smoothing function was sometimes
dropping vertexes from the polygons. Smoothing now does
also guarantee not to exceed the given distance.
- Bugfix: Sorting cells by area now sorts cells by name as
second choice In the previous version, cells with
identical area were grouped but the order was
arbitrary. Now the name is used as the second-level
sorting criterion which keeps such cells sorted by name.
- Add following line, pkglint flags.
.include "../../graphics/hicolor-icon-theme/buildlink3.mk"
(upstream)
- Updated cad/gtkwave to 3.3.73
-------------------------------
3.3.73 11jun16 Added dragzoom_threshold rc variable to accommodate input
devices that have a noisy 3rd mouse button.
Fix emission of all filter names so they are emitted in
canonical fashion so as to avoid growing strings of ../ in
savefiles.
--------------------------
Release notes for EAGLE 7.6.0
=============================
* Platforms:
- Since EAGLE requires OS X 10.8 or higher on MAC which are all 64 bit OS,
we are no longer providing the 32 bit version for MAC.
* EDIT command:
- Now the EDIT command allows changing to the proper editor window with
'edit .sch' and 'edit .brd' even in the library editor.
* USE command:
- Extended syntax for USE to unuse a specific library (use -a.lbr).
- The USE command can now also be called in the library editor (although the
list of used libraries is only relevant in schematic or board editor).
* Miscellaneous:
- Ensuring the requested precision on linear dimension values even if there
are trailing zeroes.
- Now the net class is copied if a signal polygon is renamed to a new signal.
- Termination of EAGLE by watchdog if the improper 'eagle.exe' is used together
with the CAM processor option '-X'.
- The User Language dialog object dlgTabWidget now accepts a parameter 'Index';
it has to be an integer variable and can be used to set the initial
dlgTabPage and to get the index of the current dlgTabPage.
- Added a note to help about eaglecon.exe including a warning regarding
the closing of it.
- Avoiding unintended deletion of several MUST gates w/o using Shift+Left.
- Added a 'save-brd-variants.ulp' which can be used to save a board file for
each assembly variant (may be used to prepare CAM output).
- Added entry 'DXF' to File/Import sub menu of the library editor in package
or symbol edit mode.
- The color entries #7 (DARKGRAY) of the white and the colored palette
have been changed to darker values; the same applies to 'defaultcolors.scr'.
- Changed UPDATE behavior for variable attributes: retaining changes in
schematic and board.
- Added an option to textually display the via length. It can be set in the
Settings dialog under 'Misc' or with 'SET Option.ViaLength 1|0'.
- Improved support for high DPI displays: providing the high
resolution for enlarged icons and dialog texts.
- Added a note to help for COPY of library objects regarding paths.
- Improved error message when a CAM job or section is tried to start but no
board or schematic is loaded.
- Added auto connection of ports if MOVEing them on each other.
- Added exp-palette.ulp for exporting the color palettes to an EAGLE script.
- Improved construction of a polygon: now the last wire piece can be removed
with the escape key.
- Avoiding drag&drop in Control Panel by unintended click of the mouse wheel
button.
- Added a warning about connections from a contact to several signals while
loading a board (there's no known way to achieve this illegal state within
EAGLE, though).
- Now the OPTIMIZE command is available in all drawing editor types apart from
the device editor.
- The groupwise moving of smashed texts of a locked element is now inhibited
only if the element is included in the moved group, too.
- Added cross probing (highlighting) of signals to a module net that has
generated the corresponding signal(s) completely.
- CAM Processor: when running 'Process Job' it is being checked if the job covers
the Layer Setup.
* Bugfixes:
- Taking into account connected ports to avoid 'Only one pin on net' ERC
error messages.
- Added Use and Un-Use buttons (with tool tips) in the ADD dialog to
countervail the (since V7.3) missing Drop button.
- Fix for wrong splitter position in device edit mode that could appear after
switching between different edit modes in library editor.
- Fix for EAGLE in command line mode: it could happen that a given command
sequence (option -C) was executed in the wrong editor window.
- Made the return key in Control Panel work again for activation of
tree entries.
- Fix for a parse error if in a CAM job description the sequence '="' was used.
- Avoiding references to ports of wrong type in bus or net segments.
- Fix to avoid pending file locks if EAGLE is closed over 'close all windows'
in the taskbar.
- Marking lock files as hidden also on Windows.
- Fix for window positions and other project settings not stored on MAC if
EAGLE was closed with 'Quit' in the application menu.
- Fixed drawing SMDs with roundness, if printing with option ROTATE.
- Avoiding temporary (not intended) mirroring of gates with the middle mouse
button when moving them in the device editor.
- Ensuring the proper device (package variant), if automatically changing into
the invoke mode while adding a device.
- bom.ulp: Fixed handling descriptions containing TAB characters.
- Changed handling of package names in the UPDATE command used in a library
to case insensitive (syntax 'UPDATE package_name@library_name').
- Added validation of bus name when it is changed by command line with
'NAME newBusName'.
- Ensuring proper cap style if constructing a new ARC.
- Made the popup menus for parameterbar, toolbar and commandbar buttons work
again on MAC.
- Denying renaming or deletion of a file in the Control Panel if a corresponding
lock file exists.
- Printing: fixed possibly missing caption and offsetted image on Windows.
- Fixed a possible inconsistency after library update with device sets involved
that couldn't be found in the new library and other special conditions.
- Fixed possible graphical artefacts when copying parts or elements by
GROUP/CUT/PASTE or COPY of a group.
- Fix for printing of non solid color fill styles to PDF.
- Made printing of non solid fill styles work again on Linux; clearer
output also on MAC.
- Fixed ADD dialog: no longer ignoring the first selection after clearing
the search field.
- Ensuring that only a schematic is imported into an existing module
(PASTE from file). It was possible to import a schematic/board pair
which lead to inconsistency.
- Fixed ULP filesize function for non existing files (now 0 is returned).
- Fixed dlgListView to execute the statement only if a valid item was
doubleclicked.
- Now dlgListView sets the parameter 'Selected' to -1 if nothing is selected
(see help).
- Avoiding a crash if trying to ROTATE a locked element with Click&Drag.
- Avoiding a locked element to become invisible if trying to MOVE it by
name (input e.g. 'move X10').
- Fixed f/b annotation if deleting a connection to a power pin and the gate
of this pin is placed in a module.
- Fixed unjustified ERC error message regarding an incompatibility of HIZ
pins on a net which is exported by a module with a PWR port.
- Avoiding a file locking conflict (timing issue) during library export.
- Fixed loss of the net wire if moving already connected ports on each other and
separating them again.
- Avoiding a too early deactivation of automatic confirmation mode during QUIT
(to avoid an undesired message stopping QUIT).
- Fixed generation of net wires if changing a module with direct connection
of port to port or pin.
- Fixed saving XML texts in drawings: drop invalid characters entered as texts
or descriptions (e.g by copy&paste).
- Improved validation of the port name if setting up a new port.
- Made UPDATEing libraries work with several dots like 'abc.ok.lbr'.
- Fixed drawing of mirrored or rotated frames.
- Changed handling of signal names in the OPTIMIZE command to case insensitive.
- Fixed ROUTE command with differential pairs; sometimes the initial wire
width was wrong.
- Avoiding a stuck progress bar if terminating a ULP with an exit code
within a script.
- Fixed possibly wrong window positions in case of a multi monitor setup on
Windows; improved handling of window restoration for multi monitor setup.
- Fixed a misinterpretation of colons in a sheet description; switching to
such a sheet with the sheet combobox didn't work.
- Fixed vanishing of smashed texts during MOVE of a group if the associated
element is locked.
- Fixed update of sheet thumbnails after adding a PORT.
- Fixed WINDOW FIT due to wrong calculation of the bounding box regarding
the cross-reference display area on MUST gates; only gates with text place-
holder '>XREF' are taken into account.
- Avoiding use of the colon for modules and module prefixes. It is reserved
as hierarchical name separator.
- Fixed net renaming issue: Renaming a net with segments on several sheets
over the INFO dialog could lead to inconsistency and empty net names.

http://www.klayout.de/development.html
--------------------------------------
Release date: 2016-05-03
Features:
- Bugfix: XOR and different database units: With tiling, XOR
between two layouts with different database units was not
working correctly.
- Enhancements: progress bar shown also for "-z" mode
scripts: Scripts running in KLayout with the "-z" option
(don't show main window) were not experiencing progress
reporting before. Now a small modal window is shown during
long-running operations that indicates the progress and
provides a Cancel button to abort the operation.
- Bugfix: Crash on using "Edit/Make cell": This happened
sometimes if the selected objects contained instances.
- Bugfix: Invalid behavior of paths with reflecting
segments: For example a path made of the points (0, 0),
(0, 1000) and (0, 0) had a reflecting segment which cause
some computations (for example the bounding box) to return
invalid results.
http://www.klayout.de/development.html
--------------------------------------------------------
Version 0.24.6
Release date: 2016-03-22
--------------------------------------------------------
- Bugfix: Early delete of plugin object when returning a new object from
PluginFactory#create_plugin. The returned object was not held, so in Ruby
the GC could destroy the object. This could lead to crashes in applications
employing the Plugin API.
- Bugfix: It was possible to edit read-only macros. For example, it was
possible to enter new lines in macros marked as read-only. However, these
changes were not saved.
- Bugfix: Shift+Tab not working in macro editor. On some platforms, Shift+Tab
was not working as expected. This key combinations was supposed to
left-shift a selected block an undo indents.
- Bugfix: Wrong scaling of layers when doing XOR's with layouts with
different database units. This happened when the layouts had different
layers and "summarize missing layers" was disabled.
- Bugfix: "Search & Replace" was not working properly if named layers were
present. Specifically the shape search was not working due to an
incorrectly formed query.
- Bugfix: Sizing produced incorrect results in case of slowly varying polygon
contours. The effect was a contour with spiky distortions where two "almost
parallel" edges connected.
- Bugfix: The diff tool was not reporting differences correctly when layers
were present in one layout while they were not present in the other. This
happened specficially when "Summarize missing layers" was disabled.
- Enhancement: New context mode in marker browser: "Current or Any". In this
mode, the markers are displayed in the context of the current cell. If that
is not possible because the markers are given for cells outside the cell
tree of the current cell, the fallback is to show the markers in the
current cell as in "Any" mode.
- Enhancement: More consistent behaviour of cell and category filters in the
marker browser. For example, the category filter is now also applied when
selecting a node for a certain cell in the cell branch and if nested
categories are present, the category filter is applied smarter - not just
on each category.
--------------------------------------------------------
Although a comparatively simple piece of software, a layout viewer is not
only just a tool for the chip design engineer. Today design's complexity
require not only a simple "viewer". Rather, a viewer is the microscope
through which the engineer looks at the design.
There are numerous viewers available, but sadly there are not many which
satisfy a few basic requirements. Most of them are commercial and
expensive. If there is need for a simple, yet powerful viewer - here it is.
FSDB detection when only .a files are present (necessary for
Ubuntu).
Fixed valgrind warning in fst.c for dead memory allocation.
Fixed signed fixed point binary number shift for negative
Update 3.3.68 to 3.3.70
-----------------------
3.3.69 03feb16 Added missing EXTLOAD_CFLAGS declarations in configure.ac for
FSDB detection when only .a files are present (necessary for
Ubuntu).
Fixed valgrind warning in fst.c for dead memory allocation.
Fixed signed fixed point binary number shift for negative
numbers.
Added ghw patch for missing enum crash in ghw files.
3.3.70 14feb16 Various warnings fixes from new version of scan-build.
Crash fix in Windows for transaction traces (broken since
VCD/TIM export in 3.3.61).

This package contains the component footprints for Kicad
Changes unknown, but probably new components, and convertion to the
new library format.
Note that the footprints are now in a separate package, kicad-footprints.
Major changes:
New graphics rendering backend GAL (OpenGL and Cairo) [currently pcbnew
only and does not yet support all legacy tools]
New s-expression based pcb format (.kicad_pcb)
New footprint library format (.pretty folder with .kicad_mod footprints)
Updated footprint editor (only usable with GAL renderer)
More advanced footprint manager concept called footprint library
table (fp-lib-table)
Ability to download footprints on the fly from git repositories
Official libraries are now stored on github and regularly updated
Awesome/Advanced Push and Shove (PnS) router (only usable with GAL renderer)
Interactive differential trace routing and tuning
Interactive trace length tuning
Much more realistic 3D board rendering
Intelligent library search with preview in Eeschema
Initial Python api for Pcbnew
Notes:
Symbols have changed size, been renamed, etc to follow the new KiCad library
conventions so you need to take care when working with older schematics if
you used the symbols packaged with KiCad.
The new pcb format cannot be loaded in older versions of KiCad.
Addresses pkg/49383 and pkg/46543

- Many bugfixes related to the metric conversion, including the two
autorouters.
- ps alignment marks fixed.
- route styles in *.pcb files may contain units.
- able to select more parts by their mark when their mark is on-grid.
- gtk route selector may now have nothing selected, if the board has
custom route settings.
- drc no longer hangs when some layers are skipped.
- ps_bloat works again.
- EPS header is more standards-compliant.
- PS outlines are only drawn on copper layers, not mask layers.
- cursor position and zoom are no longer written to the *.pcb file.
- lines with different clearances aren't auto-merged.
- pin names are drawn in the pinout window.
- gerber aperture numbers won't increase between runs.
- misc doc tweaks and fixes.
Other
-----
- Many tweaks to the source code to make it cleaner.
- The top and bottom layers are now consistently called "top" and
"bottom" instead of "solder" and "component"
- *.pcb file version bumped to 20091103 to reflect coordinate units change.
- gEDA/pcb project moved to geda-project.org
use USE_TOOLS+= gm4:run instead of m4:run.
With our own m4 on NetBSD, the -d flag in the m4 invocation "eats"
the following -I<path> argument, so m4 won't find its own files,
and there may be other dependencies on GNU M4.
Bump PKGREVISION, since this is a bugfix.
The find-prefix infrastructure was required in a pkgviews world where
packages installed from pkgsrc could have different installation
prefixes, and this was a way for a dependency prefix to be determined.
Now that pkgviews has been removed there is no longer any need for the
overhead of this infrastructure. Instead we use BUILDLINK_PREFIX.pkg
for dependencies pulled in via buildlink, or LOCALBASE/PREFIX where the
dependency is coming from pkgsrc.
Provides a reasonable performance win due to the reduction of `pkg_info
-qp` calls, some of which were redundant anyway as they were duplicating
the same information provided by BUILDLINK_PREFIX.pkg.
---------------------
* EAGLE Editions:
- The EAGLE Freeware edition now starts with a temporary advertisement window
and the Control Panel has got an advertisement section.
- For the EAGLE Light edition (both Freeware and Commercial) the number of
available schematic sheets has been increased to 2.
* GUI:
- Now the icons in EAGLE are scalable (see Options menu in Control Panel).
The icons are in SVG format and stored in folder 'icons' under the bin folder.
The classic set of EAGLE icons is not available in SVG format and therefore
not scalable.
- Added highlighting of the current group if starting GROUP command.
- Added tool tips to the DRC/ERC error list containing the error descriptions.
* ULPs:
- Update of various ULPs integrated into EAGLE's editors:
- In the Board editor under File/Export the entries 'Unidat' (unidat.ulp) and
'DIF4.0' (dif40.ulp) have been taken out. An entry 'Mount SMD' has been added
(starting mountsmd.ulp).
- In the Board editor under File/Import the entry 'Ultiboard'
(import-ultiboard-ddf.ulp) has been taken out. The new entries 'DXF' and
'Gerber' have been added, executing import-dxf.ulp resp. import-gerber.ulp.
The Gerber import is a new functionality.
Import of DXF is available in the Schematic editor as well.
- In the Board editor under Tools the new entries 'Element array placement'
(new component-array.ulp) and 'Mirror board' (mirror-board.ulp) have been
added.
- In the Library editor there is now File/Import with entry 'BSDL', starting
make-symbol-device-package-bsdl.ulp.
* Miscellaneous:
- Extension of proxy settings by an optional username and password.
Saving of the password is also optional and in an encrypted form.
See Help/Check for Update/Configure in Control Panel.
- Added a special DRC error for intersecting signal polygons with same rank.
- Workaround for Linux 64 bit, because Red Hat (RHEL 6.6) is not
yet providing an up-to-date GLIBC library.
- Implementation of a basic file locking mechanism: by default any files
that are loaded into an EAGLE editor are locked, i.e. not available for
writing by other EAGLE instances. Locked files are reported to the user.
He can retry getting the file, save under a different name, continue editing
without saving or break the lock. The locking can be switched off
which is saved in eaglerc user settings.
- Added a new set of schematics, boards and libraries from 3rd party 'seeed'.
The libraries are in a directory 'seeed' under the library folder, the
schematics and boards in examples/'seeed' under the projects folder.
See also www.seeed.cc.
* Bugfixes:
- Fix for not searchable PDF printings on MAC.
- Fix to avoid intensive network traffic caused by GUI elements of the
autorouter.
- Fixed unusable confirm dialog in CAM processor; under special conditions
it could be blocked by the progress dialog.
- Fix for wrong display of mirrored texts in package previews.
- Fixed handling of vias if reselecting a differential pair for routing.
- If starting the autorouter, the TopRouter is now checking whether
the board is already routed completely.
- Made image export to TIFF format work again. There was a regression in V7.3.
- Restored V6 behavior for designs w/o hierarchy if combining or renaming
net segments, which could cause unnecessary ripups.
- Now 64 colors of all palettes are initialized.
- Correction of the number of available layers for 'Make Personal' edition
from 4 to 6.
- Keeping order of 'SET CONTEXT' commands if displaying the context menu.
- Avoiding a crash on Mac if closing a drawing window with Command(Apple)-W
immediately after loading a board and schematic pair and restoring the
minimized partner.
----------------
3.3.68 18nov15 Update copyright date.
Added named markers capability to From: and To: time value
input boxes.
Added support for fixed point binary numbers for both signed
and unsigned decimal display types.
Problems found with existing distfile for eagle:
distfiles/eagle-lin32-7.4.0.run
No changes made to eagle/distinfo file.
Otherwise, existing SHA1 digests verified and found to be the same on
the machine holding the existing distfiles (morden). All existing
SHA1 digests retained for now as an audit trail.
---------------------
Release notes for EAGLE 7.4.0
=============================
* EAGLE Editions:
- CadSoft now provides an EAGLE "Make Pro" edition with capabilities similar to
Standard edition. In particular the board area is limited to 160x100mm, but
board width and height can be adjusted. The license is limited to one year
and an internet connection is required.
- There is also a new edition "Make Personal" available which was previously
called "EAGLE Hobbyist".
* COPY command:
- Beside device sets and packages the COPY command now can also copy symbols.
- If the library name is skipped in the command syntax the currently opened
library is taken as source (see help for details).
* Control Panel:
- Added entry 'COPY to library' to context menu for symbols.
- Support for Drag&Drop for symbols from Control Panel to Library Editor
and of all library object types to the overview (table of contents) mode of
the Library Editor.
* Library Editor:
- Addition of 'Duplicate' to context menu for symbols in the overview
(table of contents) mode.
- Added tool tips to the TOC view of the library editor window
containing the headlines of the respective descriptions.
* Help improvements:
- Added examples for CHANGE DLINE.
- Improved description of PORT regarding buses and of PACKAGE regarding 'name'.
- Added a section 'Special attributes' regarding the special role of
attribute 'VALUE'.
- Improved description of UL_PART.variants(); extended example for UL_VARIANT.
- Added explanation on top/bottom pairs of custom layers.
* Miscellaneous:
- Added a set of design rule files from Eurocircuits and Wuerth Electronic
to design rule folder.
- Added a new CAM job file gerb274x-mill-drill.cam for generating milling
output with Gerber and drill data output with Excellon in one action.
* Bugfixes:
- Ignoring a potentially given but superfluous extension in
COPY X.PAC@abc.lbr Y[.pac]; same for .dev.
- Fix for locale dependant problems when entering decimal numbers in unit fields.
- Changed misleading text in the Linux install script.
- Fixed handling of newly added empty global attributes.
- Fix for proper support of EAGLE 64 bit on MAC OS X 10.8.
- Fixed interpretation of scroll and zoom gestures from trackpads on MAC.
- Fix for 'Duplicate' in context menu for device sets and packages in the
library editor's overview mode when duplicating unsaved objects.
- Improved drawing performance for panning under Linux;
there was a regression after version 7.2.0.
- Fix for support of country specific decimal point (like ',') in command line
and scripts (after 7.2.0 only '.' worked).
- 'Duplicate' in context menu for library objects: restriction in the naming
dialog to allowed characters for object names.
- Fix for a crash in the autorouter when evaluation was done with invalid
job files.
- Fix for umlaut problem in installation text on MAC.
- The ROUTE command with Ctrl+Left can now also start routing at a pad;
this is important to start from a pad without airwire if the connect mode
is set to 'any'.
- Now the first selection point for DIMENSION is only snapped if coming from
a mouse click.
- Fixed update of thumbnails after removing a module.
- Fix for long printing times on Windows (there was a regression since V7.3).
- Fixed context menu handling for PACKAGE/TECHNOLOGY after clicking "Next"
in case of an ambiguous selection. The command was still referring to the
previous object.
- Fixed >LAST_DATE_TIME in CAM Processor output; it has been stuck at
'not saved' if during an EAGLE session a new drawing has been generated.
- Fixed displaying license data containing umlauts.
- Fix for EAGLE in commandline mode: it could happen that a given command
sequence (option -C) was executed in the wrong editor window.
- Fixed triggering the default button 'OK' by ENTER key in the CONNECT dialog;
if the focus was in a list, the list action was executed inadvertently.
- Fix for initially missing display of the 'Window' menu in MAC menubar.
- Correction of eagle.def concerning the output formats GERBER_RS274X_33MM
and EXCELLON_33MM (introduced in V7.2.1).
- Fix regarding continuation of an existing autorouter job after previous cancel.
- Added an initial check if the board was changed before continuation of an
existing autorouter job.
- Fix in DRC for undetected overlapping polygons in special cases.
- Fix for inaccessible minimized partner window if a schematic or board was
opened. This was a problem on several Linux distributions.
- Fix for undesired focus changes on MAC between EAGLE editor windows.
- Reactivated beep if clicking into the drawing area w/o causing
an actual selection (e.g. in ROUTE command).
- Fixed ERC messages for nets containing UTF-8 characters.
- Changed the polygon calculation within the CAM Processor to vector font,
because texts are always using vector font in the CAM Processor.
- Added a hint to use the default grid in schematics.
- Ignoring unjustified offset position if pasting a module.
- Ensuring unique naming if copying symbols.
- Fixed initial display of TOC in libraries if loaded within a project.
- Made ADD link in Control Panel for symbols work.
- Fixed annotation of deleting a module instance; deleting the respective
signals in the board completely if there is no port.
This is GDS2, a module for creating programs to read,
write, and manipulate GDS2 (GDSII) stream files.
GDS2 should be able to handle any size gdsii file but
I would consider it too slow for anything larger
than a few megabytes in size. If your files are are
closer to the gigabyte range please check out my
gdt programs at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/gds2/
which you can use to open and process GDS2 files
as a pipe from Perl.
pselect6 syscall on NetBSD, leading to high CPU usage (busy polling)
- Also ensure QT_XKB_CONFIG_ROOT is set in the environment, otherwise
keyboard input might not work.
Bump PKGREVISION.
Changes since version 4 are much to numerous to list but include for
example a new autorouting tool, 64-bit support and usability improvements
in all subsystems such as editor, CAM processor and component library.
----------------
3.3.66 05jul15 Faster fsdb initialization.
Fix vcd recoder loader crash for malformed vcd if signal is
declared as bits and a real valued change is encountered for
the value change.
Fixed crash in vcd2vzt for vcd files with no value changes
(likely a malformed vcd).
Added fsdbReaderResetSignalList() to prevent signals from
loading over and over when unnecessary.
Compile fixes for renamed functions and defines in gtk osx.
Update LICENSE HOMEPAGE and MASTER_SITES
Now it is python3 compatible

3.0 2013-10-11
SimPy 3 has been completely rewritten from scratch. Our main goals were to simplify the API and code base as well as making SimPy more flexible and extensible. Some of the most important changes are:
Stronger focus on events. Processes yield event instances and are suspended until the event is triggered. An example for an event is a timeout (formerly known as hold), but even processes are now events, too (you can wait until a process terminates).
Events can be combined with & (and) and | (or) to create condition events.
Process can now be defined by any generator function. You don’t have to subclass Process anymore.
No more global simulation state. Every simulation stores its state in an environment which is comparable to the old Simulation class.
Improved resource system with newly added resource types.
Removed plotting and GUI capabilities. Pyside and matplotlib are much better with this.
Greatly improved test suite. Its cleaner, and the tests are shorter and more numerous.
Completely overhauled documentation.

Added support for synthetic clocks in FST file.
Update timetrace marking so it runs quicker for large traces.
