v0.5.0

Caution

This release is an intermediate step with lots of valuable enhancements with respect to code quality and how logs are parsed and processed. Still is contains known issues:

• For some older Vivado versions, internal errors are reported within the logfile processing code.
• When summing up e.g. INFO messages for individual sections and the overall logfile, these counts do not match.
  Investigation is complicated, due to long logfiles. It doesn't happen for simple logfiles.

New Features

• Reworked exceptions and warnings:
  • Integrated pyTooling.Warning.WarningCollector.
• Parsing of section/phase beginnings is based on regular expressions.
  → Reduced duplicated code snippets due to moved sections/phases from tool version to tool version.
  • Finding ends is based on generated static patterns.
  • Generalized handling of sections/phases with and without child elements.
• Reworked generator and subgenerator handling. Especially, nextLines are now returned as generator exit values.

Changes

• Bumped dependencies.
• Updated pyproject configuration due to pytest v9.0 changes.
• Improved typehints.

Bug Fixes

• Many, many, many

Unit Tests

• Unit tests testing against provided synthesis log files (*.vds) of a Mercury ZX5 board for Vivado 2019.1 to 2025.1.
• Unit tests testing against provided implementation log files (*.vdi) of a Mercury ZX5 board for Vivado 2019.1 to 2025.1.
• Updated pyTooling/Actions from @r6 to @r7.
  • Restructured requirements.txt files.
