If a schematic contains two symbols with the same name from different
libraries, the cache will contain the last symbol saved with that name.
Prepend the library nickname with the original schematic symbol library
nickname when saving the cache library to prevent name collisions.
Don't back up schematic files unless the user requests a remap.
Back up all files that could be changed by a remap including the
schematic file(s), cache library, project file, and rescue library
files.
Use an HTML control instead of a static text control for improved layout
of the user remap prompt.
Improve the user prompt in the remap dialog to make it clear that changes
will be made to project files.
Do not attempt to normalize environment variables that are not valid
paths, paths that do not exist, or paths that the user does not have
read access to.
Fixes lp:1731655

In the rare case when something goes wrong with the symbol library
table remapping, do not attempt to rescue symbols that are neither
in the cache nor in any of the libraries.
The legacy rescue library code overwrote the existing library so
previous rescues would get lost. If the rescue library exists,
copy it's contents into the new rescue library before adding the
new rescued symbols so no previously rescued symbols are lost.
Fix a null pointer bug in the symbol library editor when no symbol
is loaded.
Set LIB_ID item name to name passed to LIB_PART ctor.
Copy LIB_ID in LIB_PART copy ctor.
The old symbol library list save/load code does not get called in the
schematic project file configuration code. Use the LibNamesAndPaths
static function from the PART_LIBS object.
Bump schematic file version from 3 to 4 which represents the switch to
the library table symbol linking which is incompatible with all previous
versions.
Refresh the schematic after running remapping dialog manually.
Remove all symbol libraries from the project file after remapping to
prevent symbols that should be loaded from the cache being loaded from
a library further up the search order. Save the project file to clear
all of the libraries so they never get reloaded again.
Remove the symbol library management dialog and menu entries.
Rename the symbol library table dialog menu entry.
Remove all symbol libraries from default project file to prevent clashes
with the cache library.
Fix illegal symbol naming in Eagle plugin.
Refactor rescue objects so that they can support derivation.
Factor out legacy rescuer code to perform legacy project rescues.
Create new symbol library table rescuer for rescuing symbol library table
based projects.
Perform the correct rescue type on project load.
Add symbol library table remapping support to the tools menu for run on
demand as applicable.
Add flag to SCH_SCREENS::UpdateSymbolLinks() to allow forcing the symbol
link updates when the library modification hash has not changed.
Simplify some of the library editing code. There have been a few minor
changes in the behavior of the editor. If the current symbol is deleted
from the library, the next symbol in the library is not loaded. The
deleted symbol is cleared and the current symbol is empty.
Change component to symbol to align with the preferred terminology
discussed on the developer's mailing list.
Add separate update UI event for save library as to enable the menu entry
whenever a library is selected.
Change the select symbol list dialog to a single column using the LIB_ID
format LIB_NICKNAME:LIB_ITEM_NAME so that the selection can be parsed by
LIB_ID.
Add method to expand URI to LIB_TABLE_BASE.
Override wxApp::OnExceptionInMainLoop() in debug builds to make debugging
easier when an unhandled exception occurs in a wxUpdateUIEvent handler.
Change SCH_SCREENS::HasNoFullyDefinedLibIds() to return false when the
schematic has no symbols to prevent the remapping dialog from being run.
Use SCH_COMPONENT part reference when creating netlist rather than looking
up the library symbol.
Use GetPath() instead of GetFullPath() when initializing environment
variable table entries KICAD_SYMBOL_DIR and KICAD_PTEMPALTE due to
unexpected trailing path separator which was causing find libraries
by URI to fail.
Don't create a project symbol library table when there are no libraries
not found in the global symbol library table.
Don't add non-existent libraries to project symbol library table.
Clear symbol library table when loading a new schematic.
Minor remapping status message improvements.
Check the if the schematic being loaded has been remapped (no symbol
library table nicknames defined) and remap accordingly.
Fix issues when resolving the library symbol links in the schematic
symbols.
Add cache library fallback when resolving symbols that cannot be
remapped.
Add remap complete message to remap dialog.
Add HasLibrary() helper to LIB_TABLE_BASE.
Fix issues when loading library symbols using symbol library table.
Add hashing function to symbol library table.
Improve the symbol panel message to warn user when cache library is
used to resolve symbol.
This forces the compiler class specific features rather than borrowing
from the base class's std::string. In some cases prior to this,
wxString( std::string ) was being called rather than UTF8::operator
wxString() leading to garbled wxStrings.
Added function UTF8::wx_str() which is of great convenience also.
Implicit conversions still work as before, and hopefully more reliably.
Create dialog and code to allow legacy schematic symbols to be remapped
from the old library path look up method to the new symbol library table
method by using the following steps:
1) Create a project symbol library table containing all of the symbol
libraries defined in the old library look up list not found in the
global symbol library table.
2) Map each symbol to the correct symbol in the symbol library table
if possible.
Recreate library link to symbols so look up method can be converted to
symbol library table properly.
Add function to SCH_COMPONENT to link library symbols using the symbol
library table.
