Set up a new lineage for SCH_ITEMS to get back to the SCHEMATIC
they live on: Items will all be parented to the SCH_SCREEN that
they are added to, and each SCH_SCREEN will point back to the
SCHEMATIC that it is part of. Note that this hierarchy is not
the same as the actual schematic hierarchy, which continues to
be managed through SCH_SHEETs and SCH_SHEET_PATHS.
In order to avoid confusion when loading legacy schematics, updating time
stamp UUIDs is no longer performed. If users where not experiencing issues
with time stamp clashes with shared schematics then this was probably a
case of me being overly cautious.
The original conversion code has be moved to
SCH_EDIT_FRAME::ConvertTimeStampUuids() so the working functionality is
not lost. This function should not be used until a way is found to update
the board from the schematics with the appropriate settings.
There has been a long standing (since the beginning of the project?)
issue with sharing schematics between projects. It has been somewhat
supported for complex hierarchies (a sheet shared multiple times in a
single design) but it has not been well supported for simple hierarchies
(the symbol references cannot be changed in the shared schematic). This
issue has been resolved by moving all of the symbol instance sheet paths
from the symbol definitions in the all of the project files and save all
symbol path instances in the root sheet. This ensures that orphaned
symbol instance paths do not accumulate in shared schematic files and
that designs that reuse schematic in simple hierarchies can how have
different references. It also allows the root schematic from one project
to be uses as a sub-sheet in another project.
When legacy schematics are loaded, all sheet and symbol UUIDs are
converted from time stamps to true UUIDs. This is done to ensure there
are no sheet path instance clashes between projects. That being said,
there are no checks for this. It is assumed that the probability of
UUID clashes is so low that it doesn't make sense to test for them.
This is a very large and potentially disruptive change so this will be an
unusually long and detailed commit message.
The new file formats are now the default in both the schematic and symbol
library editors. Existing symbol libraries will be saved in their current
format until new features are added to library symbols. Once this happens,
both the legacy schematic and symbol file formats will be no longer be
savable and existing libraries will have to be converted. Saving to the
legacy file formats is still available for round robin testing and should
not be used for normal editing.
When loading the legacy schematic file, it is imperative that the schematic
library symbols are rescued and/or remapped to valid library identifiers.
Otherwise, there will be no way to link to the original library symbol and
the user will be required manually set the library identifier. The cached
symbol will be saved in the schematic file so the last library symbol in
the cache will still be used but there will be no way to update it from the
original library.
The next save after loading a legacy schematic file will be converted to
the s-expression file format. Schematics with hierarchical sheets will
automatically have all sheet file name extensions changed to .kicad_sym
and saved to the new format as well.
Appending schematics requires that the schematic to append has already been
converted to the new file format. This is required to ensure that library
symbols are guaranteed to be valid for the appended schematic.
The schematic symbol library symbol link resolution has been moved out of
the SCH_COMPONENT object and move into the SCH_SCREEN object that owns the
symbol. This was done to ensure that there is a single place where the
library symbol links get resolved rather than the dozen or so different
code paths that previously existed. It also removes the necessity of the
SCH_COMPONENT object of requiring any knowledge of the symbol library table
and/or the cache library.
When opening an s-expression schematic, the legacy cache library is not
loaded so any library symbols not rescued cannot be loaded. Broken library
symbol links will have to be manually resolved by adding the cache library
to the symbol library table and changing the links in the schematic symbol.
Now that the library symbols are embedded in the schematic file, the
SCH_SCREEN object maintains the list of library symbols for the schematic
automatically. No external manipulation of this library cache should ever
occur.
ADDED: S-expression schematic and symbol library file formats.
Please note that the symbol cache is not embedded in the schematic file
to allow for round robin testing with the existing file format. Once
the parser round robin testing is complete, the symbol cache will be
embedded in the schematic file.

This moves EESchema DLIST structures to rtree. These changes are more
fundamental than the pcbnew changes from 9163ac543888c01d11d1877d7c1
and 961b22d60 as eeschema operations were more dependent on passing
drawing list references around with SCH_ITEM* objects.

The new connectivity algorithm had a tendency to cleanup

This fixes the last suffix that was missed by 168fa09f5. The schematic

.kicad_pcb-bak or other backups.
(cherry picked from commit b6fe4ff637)
Do not add cache library from another project to old library list. This
is wrong and can cause all kinds of symbol library linking issues. It's
better to force the user to fix broken symbol library links than the false
security of using multiple cache libraries.
Use correct paths when appending schematic outside of the current project
path when hierarchical sheets are appended. If the path can be relative,
give the user the option to use either relative or absolute paths.
Do not change symbol library names in schematics appended from a source
outside the current project. This will almost ensure the symbol library
links will be broken in the source project.
When the appended schematic is from another project, attempt to check all
of the possible combinations of symbol library table importing that could
cause broken symbol library links and give the user the option of canceling
the append operation or live with the possibility that there may be broken
symbol library links.
When the append schematic is in the current project path but not part of
the schematic, check to see if there are any library nicknames that do
no exist in the project symbol library table and give the user a chance
to cancel the append process.
EEschema optimizes wires by merging colinear segments. If a schematic opened without a valid
cache library or missing installed libraries and later saved, this optimization can cause connectivity
errors. In order to fix that we check each pin-wire connection and junctions if necessary.
Also changes the presentation of the string when the checkbox appears
so that the "Changes will be lost" warning isn't hidden by the turndown.
This last part may require conditional compilation as it's undocumented.
Lastly, regularizes the Unsaved Changes strings between the apps.
After importing Eagle files, we need to make sure that the connectivity

Autosave was not working correctly, partly due to different

unifies the expected suffix for the backup files to -bak.

Do not keep pointer to SCH_EDIT_FRAME in the rescuer object to prevent
it from creating dialogs with itself as the parent when call from the
rescue dialog which is itself a grandchild of the frame window.
Eagle can label nets independently of the connection point position. In
an "interestingly" designed circuit, this can lead to a junction of a
pin, wire endpoint and unrelated wire. While this is bad practice,
KiCad shouldn't force an incorrect net connection during the import. In
this case, we skip the addition of junctions to ensure that we don't
create a schematic error.

When importing an existing schematic into a sheet that was no remapped
to use the symbol library table, the user was given the option to ignore
the warning and proceed with the import. This would end up with all of

idea so now the user cannot import schematics that have been remapped.

Also fixes a completely unrelated typo in a UI string.
The Windows drive specifier C: was being interpreted as a valid URL by
wxURI which was performing a URL comparison instead of a file comparison

a URI (string) comparison or a file (wxFileName) comparison.
Don't run final rescue unless the user performs the remapping.
Standalone eeschema did not have the project path set when importing

were saved to the directory of eeschema executable instead of the actual

With the implementation of the legacy schematic plugin, any I/O error
when parsing the schematics would prevent the entire schematic from
being loaded. This change restores (somewhat) the previous behavior
where as long as the root schematic is loaded properly, then all of

recursion issues.
- Verify the imported schematic uses fully qualified #LIB_ID objects
(symbol library table).
- Check to see if any symbol libraries need to be added to the current
project's symbol library table. This includes:
- Check if the symbol library already exists in the project or global
symbol library table.
- Convert symbol library URLS that use the ${KIPRJMOD} environment
variable to absolute paths. ${KIPRJMOD} will not be the same for
this project.
- Check for duplicate symbol library nicknames and change the new symbol
library nickname to prevent library name clashes.
- Update all schematic symbol LIB_ID object library nicknames when the
library nickname was changed to prevent clashes.
- Check for duplicate sheet names which is illegal and automatically
rename any duplicate sheets in the imported schematic.
- Clear all of the annotation in the imported schematic to prevent
clashes.
- Append the objects from the temporary sheet to the current page.
- Replace any duplicate time stamps.

The GTK+ file dialog is case sensitive however it does support regular
expressions. Most of the file dialog wildcards are lower case so only
files with the lower case extensions will show up in the file dialog.
This code adds a method to convert file extensions of any case to the
appropriate (sch -> [sS][cC][hH]) regular expression on GTK+ builds so
all file extension case combinations will show up in the file dialog.
A note to developers: make sure to add a file extension when setting
when setting the default file argument. If you do don't set an
extension, the GTK+ file dialog will happily append the regular
expression as the file extension which is surely not what you want.
There are still a few known places (mostly gerbview) where there are
some complex wildcard code that has not been converted.
