*) 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.
! The initial testing of this commit should be done using a Debug build so that
all the wxASSERT()s are enabled. Also, be sure and keep enabled the
USE_KIWAY_DLLs option. The tree won't likely build without it. Turning it
off is senseless anyways. If you want stable code, go back to a prior version,
the one tagged with "stable".
* Relocate all functionality out of the wxApp derivative into more finely
targeted purposes:
a) DLL/DSO specific
b) PROJECT specific
c) EXE or process specific
d) configuration file specific data
e) configuration file manipulations functions.
All of this functionality was blended into an extremely large wxApp derivative
and that was incompatible with the desire to support multiple concurrently
loaded DLL/DSO's ("KIFACE")s and multiple concurrently open projects.
An amazing amount of organization come from simply sorting each bit of
functionality into the proper box.
* Switch to wxConfigBase from wxConfig everywhere except instantiation.
* Add classes KIWAY, KIFACE, KIFACE_I, SEARCH_STACK, PGM_BASE, PGM_KICAD,
PGM_SINGLE_TOP,
* Remove "Return" prefix on many function names.
* Remove obvious comments from CMakeLists.txt files, and from else() and endif()s.
* Fix building boost for use in a DSO on linux.
* Remove some of the assumptions in the CMakeLists.txt files that windows had
to be the host platform when building windows binaries.
* Reduce the number of wxStrings being constructed at program load time via
static construction.
* Pass wxConfigBase* to all SaveSettings() and LoadSettings() functions so that
these functions are useful even when the wxConfigBase comes from another
source, as is the case in the KICAD_MANAGER_FRAME.
* Move the setting of the KIPRJMOD environment variable into class PROJECT,
so that it can be moved into a project variable soon, and out of FP_LIB_TABLE.
* Add the KIWAY_PLAYER which is associated with a particular PROJECT, and all
its child wxFrames and wxDialogs now have a Kiway() member function which
returns a KIWAY& that that window tree branch is in support of. This is like
wxWindows DNA in that child windows get this member with proper value at time
of construction.
* Anticipate some of the needs for milestones B) and C) and make code
adjustments now in an effort to reduce work in those milestones.
* No testing has been done for python scripting, since milestone C) has that
being largely reworked and re-thought-out.
To use multiple working threads. This entailed adding KiCad typedefs:
*) Add typedefs for MUTEX and MUTLOCK which mask the actual choices for the project.
*) Add FOOTPRINT_LIST::DisplayErrors( wxWindow* ) which is a single strategy for
showing aggregated load errors. Although what's there is only scaffolding
and needs a volunteer who knows HTML pretty well.
*) Ensure all callers of ReadFootprintFiles() use the new DisplayErrors() function.
*) Push utf8.cpp and utf8.h into common library for open use.
* Use FPID instead of wxString in MODULE object.
* Use FPID instead of wxString when loading and saving files.
* Use FPID in COMPONENT object.
* Add wxString helper functions and comparison operators to FPID.
* Add fp_lib token to pcb and netlist file formats.
* Add code to load and save FPIDs to pcb file format.
* Fix segfault when deleting invalid footprint library tables in Pcbnew
in non footprint library table build.
* Fix bug when counting the number of mod files in
EDA_APP::SetFootprintLibTablePath();
* Fix both legacy and s-expression netlist readers when footprints are
assigned in the netlist.
* Add some helper functions to NETLIST for detecting when footprints are set
or not set and when they have been changed while loading the .cmp file.
* Rename a few functions to improve their readability.
* 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. Thank you Dick for the idea.
* Lots of minor coding policy, Doxygen comment, and missing license fixes.
fix a compil warning.
CvPcb: fix regressions :
Shows now a void field instead of the dummy footprint name $nonane (whenthere is no footprint selected in netlist).
The active footprint selection changes only if a new component is selected from the component file,
and does not change just when the next component is automatically selected, after a footprint selection.
Speed up delete association and auto associe.
* symbol in sch library have only single footprint filter,
* footprint filter have no wildcards,
* according footprint exists in pcb lib.
This could remove need in long equ files for lots of ICs.
* Correct all user strings and comments for the correct capitalization of
application names according to JP. They are KiCad, Pcbnew, CvPcb,
Eeschema, and GerbView.
* Add a note the the user interface policy about the correct capitalization.
* All header files used to create the PCB common library now compile as
stand alone code. This prevents the need to define them in a specific
order to make source code compile properly. It should also now be
possible to relocate the source code to build the common PCB library
to a separate folder.
* Add USE_IMAGES_IN_MENUS definition to override the default platform
behavior for adding images to menu items.
* Update COMPILING.txt to document how to use USE_IMAGES_IN_MENUS.
* Fix Windows segfault when creating language selection submenu introduced
by new bitmap code in r3087.
* Changed per email from JP from CVPcb to CvPcb because I'm getting old and
blind and misread the email.
* Lot's of Doxygen comment and coding style policy fixes.
- first, matches are now filtered with component filters (as set in eeschema lib editor);
- second, if two or more matches exist, first one will be accepted in accordance to
alias file order set in project prefs, and then to order of lines in file.
For example you may have such configuration
.equ:
'100' 'CAP100'
'100' 'RES300'
C component have filter 'CAP*'
R component have filter 'RES*'
So R with value 100 (IEEE/ESKD short for 100 Ohm) will get 'RES300' footprint,
and C with value 100 (IEEE/ESKD short for 100 pF) will get 'CAP100'.
Also equ read routine is rewritten so it is now gracefully accept UTF-8 and spaces.
* Created separate SVN version header.
* Add true config.h for platform dependency checks.
* Add dependency check cmake module.
* Remove some leftover hand crafted make files.
* Remove non-cmake build instructions from COMPILING.txt.
* Fix split _() strings causing Visual C++ compiler error.
* Fix lots of compiler warnings.
* Change project file parameter container from wxArray to boost::vector_ptr.
* Removed lots of redundant header definitions.
* Fixed green_xpm redefinition in ercgreen.xpm.
* Remove some dead code and unnecessary class methods.
* ALL: More changes for wxDC based zooming.
* 3D_VIEWER: Wrap 3d_viewer.h to prevent redefinitions.
* CVPcb: Replace wxList with boost::ptr_vector and take advantage of boost::foreach.
* CVPcb: Fix automatic association bug.
* CVPcb: Rename some variables for clarity and some minor code clean ups.
* CVPcb: Fix GTK sizing issue in library and path dialog.
* EESchema: Remove left over sizer from last commit from library and path dialog.
* Add methods to read and write project file parameters using dynamically defined list.
* Remove all global variables defined in CVPcb code.
* Dynamically define project file settings so class member variables can be used.
* Separate reading and writing application settings from project file settings.
* Make application UI objects and dialogs respect system UI font.
* Remove non-standard widget colors from CVPcb dialogs.
* Changed CVPcb object link list implementation to use wxList.
* Changed project library and path dialog to make OK button save project file instead of confusing "Save Cfg" button.
* Eliminate some duplicate file wildcard and extension definitions.
* The usual code reformatting, commenting, and spelling fixes.
Added application method to fix searching for user libraries.
Fixed documentation search path bug.
Moved auto pan setting from draw frame to draw panel were it is defined.
Some minor device context drawing changes.
