Retain back-compatibility for arm_compute/core/Types.h
* Some symbols have been moved from core/Types.h. This patch retains
back compatibility so that the user can still include this header
for those symbols
* A new header core/CoreTypes.h is created to avoid circular dependency.
This header includes essential small types that are used across
functions
* Move all function info types into function_info folder for easier
tracking

Tensors are multi-dimensional arrays with a maximum of Coordinates::num_max_dimensions dimensions; depending on the number of dimensions tensors can be interpreted as various objects. A scalar can be represented as a zero-dimensional tensor and a vector of numbers can be represented as a one-dimensional tensor. Furthermore, an image is just a 2D tensor, a 3D tensor can be seen as an array of images and a 4D tensor as a 2D array of images, etc. -All the datatype classes or structures are grouped in the core library folder arm_compute/core like the @ref ITensor, @ref ITensorInfo (all the information of a tensor), TensorShape and simpler types are in arm_compute/core/Types.h. +All the datatype classes or structures are grouped in the core library folder arm_compute/core like the @ref ITensor, @ref ITensorInfo (all the information of a tensor), TensorShape and simpler types are in arm_compute/core/CoreTypes.h. If an operator handles a new datatype, it must be added to the library. While adding a new data type to the library, it's necessary to implement the function to enable printing, the to_string() method and the output stream insertion (<<) operator. Every datatype implements these two functions in utils/TypePrinter.h -A quick example, in <a href="https://github.com/ARM-software/ComputeLibrary/blob/main/arm_compute/core/Types.h">Types.h</a> we add: +A quick example, in <a href="https://github.com/ARM-software/ComputeLibrary/blob/main/arm_compute/core/CoreTypes.h">CoreTypes.h</a> we add: -@snippet arm_compute/core/Types.h DataLayout enum definition +@snippet arm_compute/core/CoreTypes.h DataLayout enum definition And for printing: |
