Major VPTOOL usability improvements: VPTOOL version tracking, vplan dir handling, verif tags, PDF output
Created by: zchamski
This PR introduces a set of major improvements to VPTOOL
usability:
- simplified configuration
- no per-module
vp_config.py
file is needed anymore
- no per-module
- support for user-defined layout of per-module vplan databases
- new naming scheme for verification tags
- names are now unique across a product
- old-style tags are automatically migrated to the new naming scheme upon saving a database
- verification tags are now displayed in the Verification Item pane
- displayed tags are read-only: they can be selected/copied, but cannot be modified
- the complete configuration of "most recently used"
VPTOOL
is tracked inside databases - PDF output has been tested
- user documentation in
VerifPlans
was updated wrt. installation and configuration.
The databases of the FRONTEND
module were re-saved and the corresponding markdown updated to demonstrate the corresponding differences.
See individual commits for the detail of the technical changes.
