Visualization of infeasible routines

You can now choose between three different levels for the visualization of infeasible routines:

  • hiding all infeasible routines
  • showing only top-level infeasible routines
  • showing all infeasible routines

Improved loop transformation

Multi-entry loops are now transformed into loop routines in most cases. This enables annotating them with the “loop + 1 loop max xx;” annotation rather than using flow constraints. As the "flow each" constraint needs all blocks to be in the same routine, some annotations might need to be adjusted. An error will be issued if this is necessary. If a loop is not reducible to a loop routine, the members of the irreducible loop will be reported to the user together with possible inner nested irreducible loops.
