This removes the remaining hard-coded segments counts and replaces them
with the relative error calculation where the segments per arc is
determined by the maximum error we allow (smaller arcs = fewer segments)
Be more intelligent about sorting lib tree items. (Footprint
entries, for instance, come out of an already-sorted list.)
Don't recreate menus twice when laoding Footprint Editor.
More pervasive use of WX_FILENAME to avoid expensive calls to
wxFileName::SplitPath() and string concatenation.
For POSIX kernels do all the work on the file-system side so we
don't have to keep converting back and forth between encodings.
This removes the existing constructors so that all parsing must
be explicit and callers are made aware that they need to think
about illegal characters, malformed ids, etc.

There are three related changes here to harden our handling of threads
in the footprint async loader.
1) Footprint async loader explicitly aborts any remaining loader threads
on exit.
2) We protect the thread join by a mutex
3) We do not pause during no-wait routines
When starting async processes, we need to have a way to stop the process
before releasing memory. Descoping FOOTPRINT_ASYNC_LOADER while the
threads were still running could cause crashes depending on the memory
structure. To avoid this we define clear procedures for exiting a
running async processes and call these when exiting.
Fixes: lp:1772909

Also removes parallel implementation in favour of using the
normal one (with a new wxGauge-backed PROGRESS_REPORTER).

While we already cache the loaded footprint files, parsing said files
into the list is also time-intensive. Since the FOOTPRINT_LIST is
already hash-stamped against the current timestamps of the files that
make up the list, sharing a single copy of the list is quite
straight-forward.
This commit was too broad and not cognizant of the purpose of the class
UTF8.
Add MAYBE_VERIFY_UTF8() macro, which can trap non-UTF8 encoded strings in
debug builds.
Use that macro conditionally in class UTF8 to trap non-UTF8 encoded strings
being put into UTF8 instances.
The footprint library cache handler would throw an exception on the
first error it encountered preventing all subsequent footprint files
from being parsed even if there was nothing wrong with them. This
commit queues errors until all of the footprint files in the folder
have been parsed.

Remove all mention of footprint from the new LIB_ID doxygen comments and
code.
Rename files fpid.h and fpid.cpp to lib_id.h and lib_id.cpp.
Rename fp_lib_table.keywords file to lib_table.keywords and adjust CMake
build dependencies accordingly.
Update all source files effected by the code and file name changes.
Update .gitignore for file name changes.
*) Extend SWIG support deeper into the BOARD class.
*) Move swig *.i files into a directory identified for SWIG, in preparation
for a parallel universe involving Phoenix's SIP.
*) Move swig files which will be common to both eeschema and pcbnew into
common/swig.
*) Sketch out a "common" python module, and plan on dovetailing that into a
libkicad_shared.{dll,so}
*) Add common/swig/ki_exceptions.i and define a macro HANDLE_EXCEPTIONS()
which is to be applied to any function which needs C++ to python
exception translation.
*) Move the test for SWIG tool into top level CMakeLists.txt file for use
in all python modules beyond pcbnew, i.e. eeschema and common.
*) Add SWIG_MODULE_pcbnew_EXTRA_DEPS which generates a better Makefile, one
which rebuilds the swig generated *.cxx file when one of its dependencies
change.
*) Re-architect the board.i file so that it can be split into multiple *.i
files easily.
*) Make some KIWAY from python progress, in preparation for Modular KiCad
phase III.
* Remove the artificial footprint library read error limit to prevent
potentially readable libraries from being loaded after the error limit
is reached.
* Change error message dialog to an HTML dialog so that potentially large
error messages can be displayed with scrolling and the ability to copy
and paste the error message for bug reporting purposes.
* Add busy cursor when loading the footprint libraries so the user has some
idea that something is happening while the footprint libraries are being
loaded.
* Prevent libcurl from inadvertently being initialized twice.
* Dynamically load libcurl only when required.
* Reduce the number of worker threads when loading footprint libraries to
prevent issues with the GitHub plugin.
! 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.
*) Set environment variable KISYSMOD before loading FP_LIB_TABLE so that
FP_LIB_TABLE::ROW::SetFullURI() can do substitution up front.
*) De-emphasize the lib path in some of the footprint frames but keep it
so the footprint editor can export a current library to another.
You can even export a GITHUB library to a pretty library for local
installation.
*) Start the PLUGIN options editor.
*) Enhance cursor positioning in DIALOG_FP_LIB_TABLE.
* Add save table and set project path environment variable code to
FP_LIB_TABLE object.
* Add code to Pcbnew and CvPcb to set project path environment variable.
* Create empty footprint table in Pcbnew when new board created.
* Save current project specific footprint library table to path on file save
as or empty project path.
* Fix a bug in Pcbnew in file save function that would silently overwrite
an existing board file.
* Disable selecting the current library in the module editor when there are
no libraries defined.
* Catch exceptions and report errors when writing footprint library tables.
* Fix Boost build CMakeFile to fix bug when bootstrapping a Boost build in
MSys.
* When loading footprint do not retest every footprint in cache. Only test
the footprint being loaded. Fixes long load times on libraries with a lot
of parts.
* Fix footprint name bug where file extension was added to the end of the
footprint name.
* Fix bug in path equivalence test due to Posix path separators in footprint
library table. Convert paths to native separator before comparison.
* Fix a bug in FOOTPRINT_VIEWER_FRAME::OnActivate() which cause the footprint
list to always get reloaded when using footprint library tables.
* Remove some unnecessary debugging messages.
* Add a few Doxygen comments to FP_CACHE in kicad_plugin.cpp.
* Make footprint viewer work properly with library table.
* Fix bug in Eagle plugin when enumerating footprints.
* Add missing P-CAD plugin from footprint library table editing dialog.
* Fix bug in FOOTPRINT_INFO::LoadLibraries when error occur loading footprints
from libraries.
* Add code to CvPcb to handle assigning component footprints from the
footprint library table instead of the search path method.
* Add code to CvPcb to allow editing of the footprint library table.
* CvPcb footprint and component panes display fully qualified FPID names.
* Make CvPcb library pane display footprint library table nicknames instead
of library file names.
* Add code to FP_LIB_TABLE object to test the paths in the table against the
list of libraries loaded from the project file.
* Add code to FP_LIB_TABLE to convert assigned footprints in a NETLIST from
legacy format to footprint library table format.
* Split out COMPONENT_NET, COMPONENT, and NETLIST objects from netlist_reader
files and create new pcb_netlist files.
* Fix minor wxListView scroll bar sizing issues.
* Add new token and code to save and load FPID nickname in board file.
* Add new token and code to save and load FPID nickname in s-expression net
list file.
* Add WX_STRING_REPORT object to dump strings to a wxString object.
