This implements all existing symbol library object support and the ability
to save and load symbol library files between file formats for round robin
testing.
CHANGES: Symbol library file format has been converted to s-expressions.
Add support code for picking apart symbols at some future junction that
will allow full inheritance conversion of existing symbol libraries. For
now, symbols arranged by unit and body style numbers are nested for round
robin testing of symbol libraries once the parser is complete.
When searching for fields, the code was sometimes comparing translated and not translated names.
This is an issue for mandatory fields, in non English languages.
Translated field names should be used only in messages.
When opening the symbol editor without loading the schematic editor the
default text size setting is not loaded and was defaulting to the old mils
setting. Convert the default text size to internal units in case the
symbol editor is launched first.
Set default line, bus, and selection highlight width to internal units.
Change new symbol dialog pin position offset control from a spin control
to a text control so the unit binder object can handle converting to and
from internal units.
Fixes#3802https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/3802
Abandon the previous behavior of always creating a new copy of the
buffered symbol which required a re-parenting of every derived symbol
to prevent accidentally orphaning a derived symbol parent symbol
pointers.
This change required something that should have been done a long time
ago by adding an assignment operator to LIB_PART. The assignment
operator makes it possible to create a single copy of the symbol to
buffer which gets updated rather than deleting the last copy and
replacing it with a new copy.
Add a clear method to the MULTIVECTOR class so that existing LIB_PART
object draw items can be removed before assigning the draw items from
the part being assigned.
Fixes#3672https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/3672
The library manager update part function was orphaning the root symbol
of derived symbols when the root symbol was edited. Re-parent the
inherited symbols when updating a root symbol.
Update the mandatory field attributes whenever the parent is set for
derived parts. This will show the fields with the correct attributes
in the symbol editor and viewer.
Using std::unique_ptr to hold the current symbols was deleting the
pointer on symbol selection changes causing the pointer in the library
manager buffer to be stale in some cases. Revert back to using a
simple pointer and manual clean up as required.
Prevent derived symbols from being saved to a different library to
prevent orphaned symbols.
Fixes kicad/code/kicad#3649
Replace some C casts with C++ dynamic_cast.
Fix iterator bug when deleting inherited symbols from legacy file format
symbol library cache.
Remove unnecessary const when return wxString object instead of reference.
Don't clobber value file when load aliases in legacy symbol library cache
parser.
Use actual symbol library LIB_PART pointer rather than a flattened copy
of the symbol. This fixed a bug when displaying the parent field in the
message panel for derived symbols.
Simplify the flatten code by copying the parent and updating the lesser
information from the inherited symbol.
This change completely removes the LIB_ALIAS design pattern an replaces
it by allowing LIB_PART objects to inherit from other LIB_PART objects.
The initial implementation only allows for single inheritance and only
supports the mandatory fields in the derived part because that is all
that the current symbol library file format will support. Once the new
file format is implemented and saving to the old file format is deprecated,
more complex inheritance will be added. The LIB_ALIAS information saved
in the document files was move into the LIB_PART object. This change
impacts virtually every part of the schematic and symbol library editor
code so this commit message is woefully incomplete.
REMOVE: Removed the symbol aliases concept from the schematic and symbol
editors and the symbol viewer.
NEW: Replace the symbol alias concept with simple inheritance that allows
a library symbol to be derived from another library symbol.
Items that have BG fill need to be plotted in the background but we
still need their stroked edges to be in the FG. This is a workaround
that overplots the edges ensuring visual similarity. Re-working the
plot engine to support layers is a larger project.

This fixes multiple issues when importing Eagle V6 files.
Crashes occured when arcs of 0-length were found and when parts were
referenced in the schematic that were not found in the library. This
could happen if the library and schematic were different cases.

In the component, an m_unit/m_convert element is 1-indexed as opposed to
the library where they are 0-indexed. The 0-index in the library is
reserved for those elements that are shared across all conversion/unit
whereas it is invalid for the component.

We add LIB_ALIAS to the VIEW rtree when choosing a new symbol or
browsing. The actual display element may change based on the unit or
demorgan representation but there will only ever be a single one drawn.
This will set the view bbox to maximum to ensure it is always checked
for drawing.

The '/' and ':' are reserved and cannot be used in symbol or footprint
names. They will cause the LIB_ID parser and formatter to fail. While
it seems like they should be legal in symbol alias names, they will
trigger a symbol rescue the next time the schematic is loaded.
Use ID_SCH as in the Eagle schematic plugin rather than ID_ALIAS to
ensure symbol names do not need rescued the next time the schematic is
opened.
Remove ID_ALIAS since the rules for alias names are the same as the
rules for symbol names. Otherwise, allowing '/' and ':' in alias names
will force a symbol rescue on the next schematic load.

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.
Fixes: lp:1783474

When parsing component names, we need to account for the possibility of
illegal characters (e.g. "/", ":") in the names from v4 libraries. They
are fixed internally by the cache parser but if we don't fix them
in the rescue routine, the symbol won't match it's cache name.
This standardizes all schematic illegal character routines into LIB_ID

When LIB_ALIAS is renamed, it validates the new name. In case the name
typed in the field edit dialog is invalid, there was a discrepancy
between the name used further in the code and the actual alias name.

Because the cache is broken, the rescue library was never created after missing library or change in lib.
This was due to the fact the symbol name inside the cache is broken, since commit a5844c9,
because all illegal chars in symbol name are replaced by '_'.
Unfortunately, in library cache, the ':' (illegal in usual libraries) is used to build the cached symbol name.
so in lib cache, symbol names were broken, making this lib useless.
this fix allows the ':' char in symbol name in lib.

Schematic components have illegal characters replaced during load,
leading to broken component-symbol links. To avoid this, library symbols
should have their names fixed in the same way.
