MAX_CHANNEL reached and segfault with SystemC output about vcd

[yne]

Yes, in your file example, channel number is made of 5 character aaaaa wich mean up to 7339040224 entries

The only solution would be to store the channel list as HashMap<string,Channel>

I'll keep this refactor in mind. It'll be usefull for many other cases.

I made a hashmap based version, but the ordering are not kept during listing so I won't merge #19 for now

but here is a built asset:
vcd.zip

Is it something normal to have this quantity of channels? Wha does the channel number mean? Should it be the quantity of signals in the plot?

VCD Channels are numbered with 1 character, if all the 86 allowed character are taken, you can use 2 character to go up to 7396 channel etc.
In your VCD, the first channel is numbered with an "aaaaa" name, so it's quite a huge number.

The new HashMap version seems to be working very well, but it now requires a khash.h + kvec.h headers from klib

I used git submodule to avoid duplicating the code, but I could also copy those two headers file in my repo (I find this dirty, but that's subjectiv)

@UffeJakobsen : from a maintainer perspective, could having a git submodule be problematic ?
