Also switched from Sphinx generated HTML to GitHub markup help files.
This improves compatibility and will allow the help files to more easily be viewed on github as well.
This makes it far easier to see bits that were set only limited times. Now they show up plainly
even if the other bits are seen tens of thousands of times
- Add GMLAN 29bit filtering feature. In addition to J1939 matching, it is now possible to match DBC messages using only the Arbitration Id (bits 14-26 of CAN Address), since Priority id (higher bits) and Sender Id (lowest 13 bits) are not relevant when interpreting the CAN message content. This allows to use the excellent GM Global A DBC files on https://github.com/commaai/opendbc. Just remember to select the "GMLAN" matching criteria on DBC File manager.
- Add "Filter labeling" feature. Using loaded DBC files, it matches the filter Ids with DBC messages and shows them in filter windows. Labeling works in the main window (no need to set "Frame interpret" on, since this is a separate feature), as well as in Flow view, Frame data analysis, Playback and Fuzzzing windows. This makes it so much easier to concentrate on those CAN messages that matter. To use this feature, select global "Label filters using messages from DBC files" on Main Configuration page, and then enable the feature on individual DBC files (on DBC file manager) as needed. This is needed if there's overlap in CAN addresses between DBC files, and because the filter labeler cannot tell apart anymore which Filter ID is associated to which bus, it might label them incorrectly. But usually it's ok to just enable the labeling with all the DBC files.
- In Frame data analysis window, in addition to J1939 decoding show also GMLAN (Priority bits, Arbitration Id, Sender Id) decoding.
- FilterUtility static class used for centralized ListWidgetItem creation and for other helper functions
- DBC handler: To allow setting bus numbers even before connection is configured, do not enforce "valid" bus numbers
Now Y axis is logarithmic to make it easier to see the top and bottom of the ranges. Also,
the X axis is now labeled in milliseconds instead of by the 20 divisions.
All frame file I/O uses the same directory load/save location but DBC files store separately as do filter files, graphing definitions, and stored text files from the various reverse engineering windows.
* improves window handling a lot
(on Linux GNOME 3 at least: quickly resizing windows left/right, not forced in foreground anymore etc.)
setWindowFlags() inserted in all *window.cpp files except mainwindow
* some whitespace at EOL trimmed
