CHANGED abandon the unpredictable behaviour of the Simulation Command
dialog. You now separately add simulation tabs (which have invariant
command types once created), and the dialog edits the current tab.
Also a bunch of bug fixes to make multiple simulation plots actually
work.
You must first check the checkbox in the Simulation Command dialog,
after which the signals will appear in the User Defined Signals
autocomplete lists.
- Tab-switching,
- Automatic expansion of categories on tab-switch,
- Various minor simulation improvements,
- Various new simulation-related bugfixes.
Implemented serialization and deserialization of models in symbol fields
through the SIM_VALUE class. We don't carry the Spice legacy of
case-insensitive suffixes, instead we conform to the SI standard (i.e. M
is Mega, not milli, P is peta, p is pico).
Parameter grid value validation is implemented by simply not allowing
any characters that will make the value invalid (instead of highlighting
the field in a red color). This will likely be changed at some point in
the future.
Destructor of SIM_PLOT_FRAME calls sim->Attach( nullptr ) in order to destroy
circuit model (former netlist exporter). If this is skipped, eeschema crashes
when program is closed. nullptr is a valid parameter for Attach()
SIMULATOR has now an Attach() method, which should be called
with proper SIMULATION_MODEL that should be simulated, before calling Run()
Concrete class of SIMULATION_MODEL for ngspice is NGSPICE_CIRCUIT_MODEL,
renamed from NETLIST_EXPORTER_PSPICE_SIM. DIALOG_SIM_SETTINGS relies
on above mentioned object, so it was added as an argument of the constructor.
ADDED: with cmake KICAD_MACOSX_APP_BUNDLE option the user can disable
the macOS app bundle creation when compiling on macOS. This permit to
use/install KiCad like any other *nix platform (/usr/bin, /usr/share,
ecc.). By default, cmake build the app bundle.
- Wait for end of simulation before return from "C" locale to current locale
(to avoid data files created by ngspice using curr locale instead of "C" locale)
- Do not allow changing signal list to plot during simulation calculation
(avoid crashes)
ngspice updated their function signatures, requiring us to test. They
also don't provide an indicator that the signature is changed, so we
need to test based on the existence of a new version define.

ADDED Eeschema-specific netclass settings including wire and bus
thickness, color, and line style.
Netclasses override individual wire & bus colors and line styles.
If that proves an issue we might look at something more sophisticated
with inheritance.
