* loop for stop, 10 retries
For example, if module A got a "stop" during an acquisition, it stops to an 'Idle' state. If module B gets a "stop" before an acquisition, it will return it is in 'Idle' state and continue to start the next acquisition, but module B then waits for "ready for trigger" synchronization from module A, which it will never get. Since module B missed the asynchronous stop command, the workaround in the client is to send another "stop" command (upto 10 retries) till it returns Idle.
* added a lock when stopping or starting state machine in eiger server
* added 5ms right after acq started to make sure it really started
* added 100ms right after acq started to make sure it really started
- qt4->qt5
- in built qt5 6.1.5 because rhel7 is not upto date with qt5, removed findqwt.cmake
- made a fix in qwt lib (qwt_plot_layout.h) to work with 5.15 and lower versions for qrect constr.
- qt5 forms fixed, qt4 many hard coding forms switched to forms including qtabwidget, scrolls etc, fonts moved to forms
- docking option enabled by default, removed option to disable docking feature from "Mode"
- added qVersionResolve utility functions to handle compatibility before and after qt5.12
- qtplots (ian's code) takes in gain mode enable to set some settings within the class, with proper gain plot ticks
- ensure gain plots have no zooming of z axis in 2d and y axis in 1d
- removed placeholder text in qpalette in main window form as its not supportd until 5.12 (so using qt5.9 designer insted of qt5.15 to cope)
- tab order
Servers:
- fixed some error messages that were empty for fail in funcs (mostly minor as if this error, major issues)
- removed getClientServerAPIVersion in server (not used)
- removed rxr side (clientversion compatibility check), removed enum as well as it is now done on the client side.
- versionAPI.h
- GITBRANCH changed to RELEASE
- dates for all API changed to "sem_version date". Scripts to compile servers modified for this. Empty "branch" name will end up with developer for sem_version.
- Version class with constructor taking in the long version (APILIB date). Other member functions including concise(to get sem_version for new releases and date for old releases),
- bypassing initial tests, also now bypasses the client-rxr compatibility check (at rx_hostname command)
- previously, compatibility between client-det was ensuring both had the same detector API (eg. same APIJUNGFRAU)
- Now, compatibility only checks APILIB (client side) and detector API(eg. APIJUNGFRAU) (detector side) have same major version. It only does backward compatibility test. Rest is upto user to ensure.
- If server is from an older release, it will compare dates like previous implementation (APIJUNGFRAU from both client and det)
- - previously, compatibility between client-rxr was ensuring both had the same APIRECEIVER
- Now, compatibility only checks APILIB (client side) and APIRECEIVER (rxr side) have same major version. It only does backward compatibility test. Rest is upto user to ensure.
- If rxr is from an older release, it will compare dates like previous implementation (APIRECEIVER from both client and rxr)
- removed APIGUI, evalVersionVariables.sh, genVersionHeader.sh (not needed or not used)
- clientVersion, rxrversion and detectorserverversion all return strings and not integers (in hex) anymore. Depending if it has semantic versioning, it will print that or the date if it is too old.
- fixed in python (strings for versions)
- check_version function in detector server changed to "initial checks" as it only checks server-firmware compatibility and initial server checks. Client compatibilities are moved to client side.
- --version gives sem_version and date? Is date needed as well. The clientversion, detserverversion and rxrversion API gives only sem_version (no date)
- - formatting
- eiger server: fix for fw workaround where stop acquisition processing done signal does not come up, by removing reset in stop acquisition and waiting for2 seconds for feb done processing signal to go down, if it doesnt, throw if status is not idle.
- error messages not setup for some eiger server errors
- quad fix (chip signals to trim quad, both left and right registers can be different)
- minor logical error of no consequence (stop acquisition returns a different enum than expected)
