On Linux, the documentation and help files are potentially installed to
a non-standard location (i.e., outside of /usr/share/doc/kicad/). This
can be the case when, e.g., multiple versions of KiCad are installed in
parallel. Making KICAD_DOCS available at run-time is the only viable
solution to allow the applications to find the help files in this case.

This is a work-in-progress. It could use testing while I continue to fix
the remaining pieces.
There are some changes that will be needed for signing and notarization.
This currently relies on a Python tool I wrote (dyldstyle) to fixup
KiCad.app correctly. I would like any bundle fixing necessary to use a
built KiCad on macOS to live inside KiCad, rather than in
kicad-mac-builder or elsewhere. While I was experimenting, I found this
worked, however, and I would love to get extra hands testing.
I added a CMake argument, MACOS_EXTRA_BUNDLE_FIX_DIRS, for devs and
packagers who have extra directories they need to add to
fixup_bundle on KiCad.app.
There's an issue about differing behavior when KiCad is opened via
the command line or via Finder/launchd.
Introduce a new advanced config variable `KICAD_LIBRARY_DATA` which can
be used to move templates, symbols, footprints, and 3dmodels out of
`KICAD_DATA`. If not defined, everything is kept as before.
To facilitate this, PATHS::GetStockEDALibraryPath() is added. This
allows to differentiate code paths looking for EDA library data vs. code
paths looking for plugins, demos, and the like.
Thanks to Aimylios for the hints and suggestions with regards to the
stock EDA library data path handling on Windows and MacOS.
Fedora, Flatpak, Debian, and possibly other distributions as well, have
packaging helpers who will strip out debug symbols into separate debug
packages.
Currently, the explicitly added "-s" EXE_LINKER_FLAG renders these
automatically created debug packages completely useless, so this change
removes it.
There is no CMake target property PRIVATE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES, just
INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES (PRIVATE and PUBLIC directories) and
INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES (PUBLIC and INTERFACE directories).
Building on Linux with -DKICAD_USE_EGL=ON but without a system-wide GLEW
fails without this change.
wxWidgets 3.1.5+ on Linux will compile with the Wayland EGL
canvas as the backend instead of the X11 backend. This requires a
version of GLEW compiled with the proper EGL defines and a different
header/code for certain parts that are X11 GLEW specific.
This introduces an in-tree version of GLEW that will be built with the
GLEW_EGL flag then statically linked into the KiCad executables when
EGL support is needed.
We want to be somewhat standards compliant if we can.
There is a small complication, which we work around:
gcc sets __STRICT_ANSI__ in "c++11" mode (the non-strict mode would be
"gnu++11"), which causes the "strdup" definition to go away. If wx < 3.1 is
compiled with GNU extensions, it just forwards the wxCRT strdup function to
system strdup and doesn't create a definition for the wxCRT function, and
when a program is then compiled in strict mode against that, the wxCRT
function is missing.
From 3.1 onwards, the function is provided unconditionally in wx, so the
workaround is no longer needed there.
This moves the generated files out of the source tree and into
the build directory. They are now regenerated each time they are
needed, based on the timestamp of the generated file compared to
the timestamp of the lemon file.
To do this, we also bundle lemon into the thirdparty directory
and build it for ourselves since it is a very tiny program and
not all platforms seem to distribute it in a consistent manner.

This is required, because Ninja otherwise doesn't properly rebuild after
updating the version string header file.
Because BYPRODUCTS requires CMake 3.2, bump the minimum version and remove
now unused compatibility code for older CMake versions.
It is already added with MSVC, and must be added with gcc/mingw
However, the cmake option:
add_definitions( -DBOOST_UUID_FORCE_AUTO_LINK )
does not work on msys2 (at least with my cmake version), so another syntax is used.
* Split up the thirdparty code into the thirdparty folder (#3637)
* Create a new kimath static library containing all the math functions
This is part of cleaning the build system for #1906.
If an in-tree build was done on Linux, it would install
both the configured kicad.appdata.xml file and the template
kicad.appdata.xml.in file. This breaks packaging, and is not
needed.
CHANGED: Update the Linux appdata file to include new tags
* Include version tags (and others) in the appdata file
* Refactor the version string generation to clean it up
Remove not used files:
- markdown2html is not used (we are using "Sundown" tool)
- newstroke_font_without_CJK.cpp is removed.
Due to code optimization the full font works fine without memory issues
-fix also a few very minor compil warnings
It allow using the previous font set without CJK.
The new font (with CJK) is very large (10x), and can create (on Opengl) out of memory issues
with some graphic cards.
Our coroutine system can make debugging memory issues harder by not
following a standard stack allocation system. We can get around this by
using valgrind's built-in stack instrumentation. Each coroutine
registers a stack allocation allowing memcheck to recognize when
accesses are bounded.
KICAD_STDLIB_DEBUG option generate intrusive tests and asserts, and on Windows, generate crashed not captured by GDB.
KICAD_STDLIB_LIGHT_DEBUG generate less intrusive tests and asserts.
it adds only -Wp,-D_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS and that generate less asserts.
Add also the new build options in dialog about.
This adds std library assertions and address sanitizer options.
They are not yet enabled by default for debug builds as they are not
compatible with our inline assembler
Defines:
- inhibit generation of #pragma comment(lib, ...) from boost
- inhibit warnings about "unsafe" containers
- inhibit warnings about "unsafe" C functions
- inhibit warnings about "deprecated" POSIX functions
- suppress min/max macros from windows.h
Flags:
- source and execution charsets are UTF-8
- suppress warnings about throw() not being fully supported in the compiler
- suppress warnings about values being explicitly cast to bool
- enable string pooling
- enable unreferenced code removal
- enable COMDAT folding
- generate PDB debug information
* Changed the KICAD_SCRIPTING flag to be a global disable, so it
will disable all other scripting flags when set to OFF
* Added version testing with the wxPython flags to ensure the
proper version is found for the flags provided
These options were used to support the legacy canvas when drawing on
MacOS and GTK3. With the move to 100% GAL, they are extraneous. This
moves all DC over to "COPY" as we only use this for printing support in
Eeschema at the moment, so there is a single draw command (no erasing)
for the canvas.
Add a new CMake target, qa_all, which builds all
tests, tools and their deps.
Then, when KICAD_BUILD_QA_TESTS is set OFF, remove tests
and tools from the ALL target, so `make all` doesn't include
these builds.
This means even when you turn the KICAD_BUILD_QA_TESTS option
off, you still have the option to:
* Build individual tests: `make qa_pcbnew`
* Build all tests: `make qa_all_tests`
* Build all tools: `make qa_all_tools`
* Build all QA executables: `make qa_all`
This also will provide a place to hang extra logic for test routine
wrangling (e.g. by CI tools)
Update the "Compiling KiCad" dev docs.
Also, CMakeModules .cmake files should not be excluded from git
