BOARD* LoadBoard( wxString& aFileName, IO_MGR::PCB_FILE_T aFormat ) crashes if a
old project file (*.pro) exists and the *.kicad_pro file doses not exists.
The crash happens when trying to convert the old config outside kicad.
s_SettingsManager is not always initialized when the WriteDRCReport is
run. We should first attempt to extract the project from the actual
board being checked. Failing that, we fall back to the static settings manager and then exit if we don't have a project associated.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/10221
(cherry picked from commit 78e737b9d8)
Unused variables in function calls can be commented out. Unused
return variables get a new routine `ignore_unused()` that silences the
warnings with zero overhead.
KiCad cannot have more than one board/project open, so disallow
the Python APIs for loading additional boards when the frame is
present. Inherit the SETTINGS_MANAGER from the frame when present
instead of creating a new one that won't have the loaded project.
Currently there is pcbnew.ExportSpecctraDSN() but it needs a pcbnew
frame set which makes it unusable outside of the scripting window or a
plugin.
This refactors actual exporting logic into separate helper and adds an
overload to ExportSpecctraDSN(board, filename) that doesn't need pcbnew
window.
They don't define a KiCad string class, so the header file name was
somewhat misleading. But the fact that they didn't match definitely
made coding more difficult.
