* Grep for @TODO or TODO for sourcecode tasks
Pcbnew NETLIST_READER improvements. * Create separate NETLIST object to hold contents of netlist files. * Read entire netlist and footprint link files before making applying changes to board. * Add BOARD::ReplaceNetlist() function to eliminate the calls between the NETLIST_READER, PCB_EDIT_FRAME, and BOARD objects. * Change placement of new components below the center of the current board or in the center of the page if the BOARD is empty. * Add dry run option to netlist dialog to print changes to message control without making changes. * Add button to netlist dialog to allow saving contents of message control to a file. * Eliminate the need to compile netlist_reader_*.cpp in both CvPcb and Pcbnew. * Add netlist_reader_*.cpp to the pcbcommon library. * Remove redundant load component link file code from CvPcb. * Modify CvPcb new to work with the new NETLIST_READER object. * Add compare() function and < and == operators to FPID object. * Add REPORTER class to hide an underlying string writing implementation for use in low level objects.

2010-05-17 20:35:46 +00:00
* Push file open semantics down to one of the base frame classes ( likely candidate is
WinEDA_BasicFrame ) so that file open behavior is consistent across all applications.

Implement wxDC coordinate handling and wxGCDC. * Implement code to allow wxDC to handle coordinate conversions between device and drawing units. * Add build settings to enable wxGCDC for wxGraphicsContext testing. * Remove wxAUI conditional build cruft as it is now required to build Kicad. * Fix scroll increment size regression to prevent jumping around the zoom center position. * Add find GDI+ cmake module for building on WXMSW when wxGraphicsContext is enabled.

Wayne:
New EESchema find dialog and other minor fixes. * Replaced find dialog with wxFormBuilder version. * New find dialog is modeless, supports more advanced search features, remembers it's last position, size, search history, and search settings, and implements initial support for replacing. * Added Shift+F5 hot key to search for next DRC marker. F5 now just repeats previous search. * Minor cosmetic enhancements to label edit dialog. * Remove tab from grid size text printf to fix toolbar grid combobox display in wxGTK. * Updated my TODO list items.
2010-03-16 18:22:59 +00:00
E3) Hook up perform last library search hot key to replace search libraries for
component support removed from find dialog.
E4) Change add component dialog search text control to combobox and add component
search history save and restore capability. Also add session save and restore
to component history list control. Add advanced search capability similar to
new find dialog.
E6) Start initial work for changing component library file format to use Dick's
dsnlexer. See note C2 above. Come up with a workable library file format to
handle the wishes of the library implementation group. Add initial clipboard
support to the library editor.

PCBNew
------
update
2010-01-24 02:07:40 +00:00
use the same format string in the test program as in LEGACY_PLUGIN for record keeping purposes
2012-06-25 14:44:47 +00:00
*) Make the zone hit testing be done in screen coordinates, not internal units.
See the @todos in class_zone.cpp. A fixed distance in internal units becomes
a variable distance based on zoom factor, leading to inconsistent results at
various zoom factors. I believe that a fixed distance in pixels might make
for a friendlier UI.
++PCBNew * Removed Pcb_Frame argument from BOARD() constructor, since it precludes having a BOARD being edited by more than one editor, it was a bad design. And this meant removing m_PcbFrame from BOARD. * removed BOARD::SetWindowFrame(), and BOARD::m_PcbFrame * Removed the global BOARD_DESIGN_SETTINGS which was in class_board.cpp * added BOARD_DESIGN_SETTINGS to the BOARD class, a full instance * a couple dialogs now only change BOARD_DESIGN_SETTINGS when OK is pressed, such as dialog_mask_clearance, dialog_drc, etc. * Removed common/pcbcommon.cpp's int g_CurrentVersionPCB = 1 and replaced it with build_version.h's #define BOARD_FILE_VERSION, although there may be a better place for this constant. * Made the public functions in PARAM_CFG_ARRAY be type const. void SaveParam(..) const and void ReadParam(..) const * PARAM_CFG_BASE now has virtual destructor since we have various way of destroying the derived class and boost::ptr_vector must be told about this. * Pass const PARAM_CFG_ARRAY& instead of PARAM_CFG_ARRAY so that we can use an automatic PARAM_CFG_ARRAY which is on the stack.\ * PCB_EDIT_FRAME::GetProjectFileParameters() may no longer cache the array, since it has to access the current BOARD and the BOARD can change. Remember BOARD_DESIGN_SETTINGS are now in the BOARD. * Made the m_BoundingBox member private, this was a brutally hard task, and indicative of the lack of commitment to accessors and object oriented design on the part of KiCad developers. We must do better. Added BOARD::GetBoundingBox, SetBoundingBox(), ComputeBoundingBox(). * Added PCB_BASE_FRAME::GetBoardBoundingBox() which calls BOARD::ComputeBoundingBox()

Pcbnew NETLIST_READER improvements. * Create separate NETLIST object to hold contents of netlist files. * Read entire netlist and footprint link files before making applying changes to board. * Add BOARD::ReplaceNetlist() function to eliminate the calls between the NETLIST_READER, PCB_EDIT_FRAME, and BOARD objects. * Change placement of new components below the center of the current board or in the center of the page if the BOARD is empty. * Add dry run option to netlist dialog to print changes to message control without making changes. * Add button to netlist dialog to allow saving contents of message control to a file. * Eliminate the need to compile netlist_reader_*.cpp in both CvPcb and Pcbnew. * Add netlist_reader_*.cpp to the pcbcommon library. * Remove redundant load component link file code from CvPcb. * Modify CvPcb new to work with the new NETLIST_READER object. * Add compare() function and < and == operators to FPID object. * Add REPORTER class to hide an underlying string writing implementation for use in low level objects.

changed when drawing a trace.

Dick's Final TODO List:
======================
Modular KiCad Blueprint Milestone B), major portions: *) When kicad.exe closes a project, close any open KIFACEs so that they cannot get disassociated from their true PROJECT. *) Allow loading eeschema library editor from kicad.exe *) Allow loading pcbnew library editor from kicad.exe *) Rename LIB_COMPONENT to LIB_PART. *) Add class PART_LIBS, and PART_LIB. *) Make PART_LIBS non-global, i.e. PROJECT specific. *) Implement "data on demand" for PART_LIBS *) Implement "data on demand" for schematic SEARCH_STACK. *) Use RSTRINGs to retain eeschema editor's notion of last library and part being edited. *) Get rid of library search on every SCH_COMPONENT::Draw() call, instead use a weak pointer. *) Remove all chdir() calls so projects don't need to be CWD. *) Romove APPEND support from OpenProjectFiles(). *) Make OpenProjectFiles() robust, even for creating new projects. *) Load EESCHEMA colors in the KIWAY::OnKiwayStart() rather in window open, and save them in the .eeschema config file, not in the project file. *) Fix bug with wxDir() while accessing protected dirs in kicad.exe *) Consolidate template copying into PROJECT class, not in kicad.exe source. *) Generally untangle eeschema, making its libraries not global but rather held in the PROJECT.
2014-08-13 20:28:54 +00:00
*) Milestone B of Modular KiCad Blueprint:
* Put SEARCH_STACK::LastVisitedPath() out of its misery.
* Combine CVPCB into PCBNEW.
Remove class RETAINED_PATH, put is main member function into SEARCH_STACK. Change class PROJECT to use a generalized wxString in place of the RETAINED_PATH items, so that new session and project specific strings of any purpose can be saved there, for the life of a session.
