Having wxWidgets and wxPython build using different toolkits leads
to an unusable build. KiCad executables are linked against wxWidgets
shared libraries, which will be in conflict with wxPython ones that
are loaded at runtime. We cannot easily solve it, so at least warn
the users about expected problems.

This target seems to only create empty makefiles, tested on linux. And I
can not find any references to it in any of the current CMakeLists. Lets
remove it.
This will ensure KiCad will be easily installable from the app stores such
as GNOME Software.
The screenshots probably need a better home. Not that it would matter
too much -- the Linux distributions do cache them with their feeds, so
the app store applications don't access them from this source directly.
Screenshots from the web [1] can't be used since they are too large for
use in the app store application. :(

Fixes lp:1323789

Add loading symbol library table code to schematic PROJECT object.
Fix minor issues with loading global symbol library table.
Add default symbol library path environment variable to the environment
variable list and change the variable name to KICAD_SYMBOL_DIR.
Add code to SCH_SCREENS to test if all library nicknames of the symbol
library IDs are empty.
Remove unnecessary KICAD_USE_SCH_IO_MANAGER build option.
- DIALOG_CHOOSE_COMPONENT has footprint select widget
- FOOTPRINT_SELECT_WIDGET
- FOOTPRINT_CHOICE widget (customized wxComboCtrl)
- FOOTPRINT_FILTER class
- FOOTPRINT_INFO rework:
- FOOTPRINT_ASYNC_LOADER to load without freezing UI
- Rewrite loader threads as queue-driven thread pool
- Make FOOTPRINT_INFO available via kiway
- FP_LIB_TABLE::PrefetchLib
- Access to global fp-lib-table via kiway
- SYNC_QUEUE threadsafe queue template
- Remove KICAD_FOOTPRINT_SELECTOR build option
This commit brings several changes:
- Add a footprint preview pane to the eeschema component selector
- Upgrade component list to wxTreeListCtrl
- Factor out wxTreeListCtrl subclass TWO_COLUMN_TREE_LIST which
patches a column size bug
- Linkify datasheet URL in info pane
This plugin mechanism is enabled only if option -DKICAD_SCRIPTING_ACTION_MENU=ON (it is off by default)
It imply -DKICAD_SCRIPTING=0N
This is currently for testing purposes only for developers, not yet for users.
Remove the KICAD_REPO_NAME option from the main cmake file and the
generated config.h file since it is no longer used.
Set the default branch name to "undefined" in CreateGitVersionHeader.cmake
instead of the KICAD_REPO_NAME option.
Remove generating KICAD_FULL_VERSION from CreateGitVersionHeader.cmake
and add it to WriteVersionHeader.cmake so that the default settings and
the new KiCadVersion.cmake definitions can be used to generate the full
version string as well.
Check to see if the branch name is set and only use the version to
generate the full version string. This allows the use of the KiCad
version cmake file to create a version only string like "4.0.4" with
no trailing branch name.
Change build_version.cpp to use the full version string rather than
concatenating the version and branch strings.
This allows the warning to be active for code which would benefit from
it, but not spew hundreds of warnings for code over which KiCad does not
have control of the override specifiers.
*) 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.
* Using CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX in KICAD_* install paths is redundant,
because they are allready relative to CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX when no
absolute path is given.
Using an absolute path makes it harder to change the install
path on the fly, without either rebuilding, or manually editing
CMakeCache.txt

It is no longer necessary (or sensible) to include a simulated bzr
revision number, and we can reliably get a branch name now. Therefore,
the new version strings look like:
(2016-08-26 revision 67230ac)-master
| | |
| | branch name, "HEAD" if not on a branch,
| | or "unknown" if no .git present
| |
| abbreviated commit hash, or no-git if no .git
| present
|
date of commit, or date of build if no .git present

* Factor out PROPERTIES object from the PCB plugin code and move it into
common so it can be used by both the Pcbnew and Eeschema plugins.
* Add schematic I/O plugin manager for loading and saving schematic and
component library files.
* Add initial attempt at a parser for current schematic file format. This
parser will be infinitely more strict than the current parser which is very
forgiving in what it parses.
* Make minor changes to the base bitmap class to support the new parser.
* Add find root sheet support to sheet object to allow fetching the root
sheet from any sheet in the stack.
Libraries have been 100% case-sensitive for a while now; there is no longer a
need to keep this option around. This will change nothing except for any
stragglers still manually specifying this old option.
