degate's Issues

System wide installation

Please, add ability to be installed in /usr/bin, /usr/lib, etc., using make install.

Gate Library crashes

Clicking “Add” in the Gate Library crashes with the Message:

degate_bin: /…/degate/gui/./RenderAreaBase.h:188: virtual void RenderAreaBase::set_viewport(int, int, int, int): Assertion `min_x < max_x' failed.
Aborted

Reproduction: fond

• current commit 0207b83
• compile, make, run
• new project
• Gate -> Gate library
• click “add”

GPLv3 or later

Please consider adding compatibility with future versions of the GPL license.

This would be done simply by adding "(or later)" in the README file, in the line that describes the licensing.

Scaling manager crashes on background image reimport

[/Users/martin/degate/lib/LogicModelHelper.cc:195] Set image to layer.
Assertion failed: (file_exists(base_directory)), function ScalingManager, file /Users/martin/degate/lib/./ScalingManager.h, line 95.
Abort trap

using GDB to debug degate

how can i include ./lib folder while debugging degate_bin.

GDB command 'list' can show function main or every source of ./gui folder. but ./lib folder is not included.

GDB command 'directory lib' does not work. plz let me know the solution.

Error in make process

What

Unsolvable error in the build process when calling make.

Help with design of low-level HDL language

Chips engineering (and eventually reverse engineering) world suffers a lot from fragmentation - some tools produce Verilog, some VHDL, some - only subsets of them, creating low-level LLVM-like alternative will help everyone, so HDL implementations will opt only for generating this low-level HDL and routing/synthesizers accept it. LLVM or WebAssembly - you can see how many languages and targets are supported now by both. With more open source tools for FPGA this is more feasible now than ever. Most of the people suggest to adapt FIRRTL for this. There is a good paper on FIRRTL design and its reusability across different tools and frameworks. If you are familiar with binary analysis tools like rev.ng or retdec, you can see they are based on the uplifting the native code to LLVM code and applying optimization passes to make the output graph much more readable. I believe similar approach can be used for VLSI reverse engineering too. Please consider this option. So if you have any feedback - you are welcome to leave the comment in the corresponding thread.

See f4pga/ideas#19

deleting placed standard cells does not correctly clean up the logic model

Open the LP project, select all cells and remove them. Store the project and close it. Afterwards, re-open the project. It will fail and give an error message, which indicates unknown logic model objects.

I assume, that the delete operation does not clean all the nets.

New release

Since there were many improvements since the last one it make sense to carve a new one.

warning: std::auto_ptr is deprecated

Hello!

Just for information.

Under Linux, gcc 5.4.0 reports:
warning: ‘template class std::auto_ptr’ is deprecated [-Wdeprecated-declarations]

Thank you!
