changelog

Added commands for HP356X devices. Added STA, IS and AS as commands (instead of constants).

Make it possible to disable the cache mecanism temporarly and make AbstractCommand derivated classes not considered as commands if their name starts with '_'.

make convert_from prototype accepts several arguments (to build command with several arguments)

Some improvements & cleanups. Now the get/set mecanisme using descriptor works (but is not yet implemented for most commands of the HP356X devices).

Try to be a little more robust when instanciating the GPIB class (serial connector)

add de debug "manage_srq" method on HP356XDevice

An AbstractGPIBDevice and the Command should now behave quite OK ie. one can type d.MyCommand and it will return the value (either from the cache or after having asked it to the device), and use d.FRS = 10000 to send the command "FRS 10000 Hz" to the device transparently.

Major refactoring in progress. Build the toolkit around a GPIB controller which have a communication thread with the devices. Every device is an instance of a class that describes the device model and registers itself to the controller.

added several example coord datablock & make use of some icons

oops, forgot the resource file

added some icons

add ability to select display (A or B) from which we get trace/coord

some general GUI improvements & code cleanups

make plotter really repaint itsefl when some property of the plot is changed

add THD computation for simple traces of power spectrum

added many HPGL example plots (for the sake of testing mainly)

added some forgoten files to Hg

more work on HP3562A data block dumper/displayer application.

make q3562 app beginning to work; can now display state & trace datablock with some options.

forgot a file...

refactoring: moved everything of the library to a "pygpibtoolkit" module.

refactoring in progress

small improvement; display first plot at startup

constant adjustments for string plots

some improvements; can now give a bunch of files to open on cmd line; removed print statements

Refactored the preference system for the qt gpib plotter app. One can now set the colors for plotting pens.

moved some files & one bugfix

added some hpgl example plots

refactoring: created a 'plotter' subdirectory and put everything related to GPIB/HPGL plotting under it

added generated rc files (from hpgl_plotter.qrc)

removed useless png files (using SVG everywhere)

oops, forgot icon files

added a start scrip & cleanups

added a gpib plot receiver mockup for testing purpose. Seems to work.

add a 'receiving a plot' led

add main menu shotcuts and make first openened file displayed

add some example hpgl files

make qplotter a working app: can new load several hpgl files à display them; have a preference system

Begin of a HPGL plotter application (PyQt4)

Add HPGL plotter backend for Qt4

improved hpgl parser : plot strings

fixes

added a (very) beginning HPGL parser (with a simplist matplotlib backend)

docstrings added

Several improvements (code refactoring) + add stuff to decode binary coordinate data block ("DCBN" command)

make header_formatter a little bit smarter (interpret bool values when it can)

several improvements; add an internal state reader

some forgotten added files

some code refactoring and several improvements in gpib_plotter (should be more robust & quicker)

created a HP3562A submodule for specific code

many improvements in the read/dump trace tools.

several updates to the gpib module

adjust timing parameters & fixes

fixes in gpib module

completed missing constants

ported 'dump_trace' to gpib API

small cleanup

addede a __init__.py

added a gpib module (handle gpib connection)

make 7470 plotter emulator more user friendly & several file renames
