Enhancement in Excellon file reader: accept Feed Rate and Spindle Speed definitions in Tool information line (but does not use them)
Eeschema: better name for m_SheetList (changed to m_SheetPath) member of class NETLIST_OBJECT.
Fix an annoying issue about not named nets:
now, these nets are named from the component references and pin names which are connected.
therefore, unless the net or the footprint references are modified, the net name is not modified between 2 netlist calculations.
* Complete encapsulation of the MODULE class.
* Complete encapsulation of the EDA_TEXT class.
* Encapsulate most of the ZONE_CONTAINER class.
* Add pcbcommon library as a dependency for reSWIGging the scripting
support. This should cover most dependency cases.
This required the additional compiler command line option "-std=c++0x".
2) Switch to unique_ptr from auto_ptr which is C++ deprecated.
3) Change to new English layer names per mailing list discussion, see class_board.cpp.
4) When saving to *.kicad_pcb or *.kicad_mod, identify opportunities to use wildcard
layer sets, for pads so far.
5) Switch to two std::string hashtables in pcb_parser.cpp, away from one wxString based one
for layer names and layer sets mapping. One hashtable holds the mask, the other the index.
Layer sets are only in the mask table.
6) Move "LOCALE_IO toggle" into PCB_IO::Format() since it is a public API function and
caller should find it as convenient as possible to use. LOCALE_IO should handle
nesting OK in the case where public Format() is called from one of the Footprint*()
functions.
7) Drop support for "export module to new library". Creating new libraries will have to
be handled in concert with library table entries, and we've talked recently about
creating a better footprint library manager, one that resides in a DLL/DSO. So
this kind of functionality needs to be handled in there in the near future.
8) Change name of exported PCB_IO module/footprint to *.kicad_mod and not *.emp.
* Eeschema can generate this netlist format.
* Pcbnew can use (automatic identification) the current format or the new format.
* Cvpcb does not use yet the new format.
* Use version of DateAndTime that returns a wxString and delete the
version that takes a char* as it is no longer required.
* Merge StrNumICmp() and StrLenNumICmp() into StrLenNumCmp() to create a
single function for comparing strings with integers and remove a lot
of duplicate code.
* Remove unused strupper from string.cpp.
* Use wxArrayString for sorting the EDA_LIST_DIALOG contents.
* Move the hierarchical label connected test into the NETLIST_OBJECT class.
* ERC pin type strings can now be translated.
* Remove unused EDA_DRAW_PANEL attribute from all ERC test functions.
* Add get marker count method to SCH_SCREENS object.
* Redundant header removal.
* Lots of coding style policy fixes.
* Correct all user strings and comments for the correct capitalization of
application names according to JP. They are KiCad, Pcbnew, CvPcb,
Eeschema, and GerbView.
* Add a note the the user interface policy about the correct capitalization.
* Move code from function ClearProjectDrawList() into SCH_SCREEN object
Clear() method.
* Delete eeschema/delsheet.cpp as none of the code in it is ever called.
* Move global spice and net list command line variables into SCH_EDIT_FRAME
object as priviate members and provide access methods.
* Remove unnecessary header includes from eeschema/sheet.cpp.
* Minor coding policy fixes.
* Fix debug build warning (lp:793373).
* Changed sheet edit restore and undo to use object copy and replace method.
* Add minimum width and height constraints when resizing sheets that have
hierarchical pins.
* Fix drag sheet hot key bug.
* Change Doxygen configuration to extract private methods and members
when creating documentation.
* Fix a bunch of Doxygen comment warnings.
* Create library collector class.
* Add clarification menu to library editor when multiple items are found
at the current position.
* Add get clarification menu text to all objects derived from LIB_ITEM.
* Add get menu bitmap for all objects derived from LIB_ITEM.
* Improve LIB_PIN bounding box calculation.
* Rename LIB_ITEM::DoGenCopy to doClone to match behavior defined in base
class EDA_ITEM.
* Minor class renaming for improved code consistency.
* Added less than operator to EDA_ITEM.
F1.) Allows you to disable a component from the Netlist. Useful for connectors etc.
To exclude a component from the Spice Netlist add [Spice_Netlist_Enabled] user FIELD set to: N
F2.) Allows you to adapt to simulation libraries that require the netlist node
sequence to be in a different order. To reorder the component spice node sequence
add [Spice_Node_Sequence] user FIELD and define sequence: 2,1,0 I am using
LTSpice, but this holds true for any SPICE subcircuit.
Use non translated fields names in intermediate netlist file because they are keyword in this file.
Change intermediate netlist file extension from .tmp to .xml
* Encapsulate file name member of base screen object.
* Encapsulate associated screen member of schematic sheet object.
* Create add screen method to schematic sheet object to simplify setting
the associated screen.
* Move the change file name code in the schematic sheet object to the edit
sheet method in the schematic editor frame object to eliminate message
dialogs.
* Improve reference counting in schematic screen object.
* Add helper type definitions for changing schematic object storage to C++
containers.
