* Move board item object Format() functions into PCB_IO object.
* Change file format to use layer names instead of numbers.
* Change file extension to kicad_pcb.
* Save dialog now supports saving boards to new file format.
* Add CMake option to build s-expression file save.
* Add check to main CMakeList.txt file to make sure nanometers are
enables when the new file format is built.
* Minor tweaks to object format functions for improved output.
* Rename kicad_plugin.h/cpp to legacy_plugin.h/cpp.
This uses the new LEGACY_PLUGIN, so we can force more usage & testing of it
before ioascii.cpp and item_io.cpp are deleted, along with
BOARD_ITEM::Save() and BOARD_ITEM::ReadDescr() associated functions.
* Add s-expression Format() function to all objects derived from
BOARD_ITEM.
* Add s-expression Format() function to base objects as required.
* Add functions to convert coordinates from base internal units
(nanometers) to millimeter string for writing to s-expression
file.
* Add temporary dummy conversion functions to prevent link errors
until schematic and board object and action code can be separated
into DSO/DLL.
* Add CMake build option to build Pcbnew with nanometer internal
units.
sizes. Tested with postscript output only. Required minor file format changes
to reflect the "portrait" setting. common/dialogs/dialog_page_settings.cpp
uses a checkbox but its name is "Landscape", which is inverted from portrait,
but since it is the more common choice, I used that rather than portrait.
The tooltip for that checkbox makes it clear. No portrait mode is supported
for "User" paper size.
KICAD_PLUGIN::Load() is solid now, except for missing globals, which
still need to get moved into the class BOARD.
Same for KICAD_PLUGIN::Save(), only missing globals, which once they
are in the BOARD class, will be added.
which should eventually go away in favor of kicad_plugin.cpp.
Add CMake options USE_NEW_PCBNEW_LOAD and USE_NEW_PCBNEW_SAVE, which should not be
used yet, and both default to OFF accordingly.
* 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()
