Very minor fixes: remove duplicate #define in vrml_v2_modelparser.cpp, and "undo" a very minor change I made in class_board.cpp when I tried to fix a Pcbnew crash.
* Fix unitialized variable in MSG_PANEL_ITEM default ctor.
* Fix a bunch of uncaught exception issues.
* Fix a memory leak in the NETLIST_READER::GetNetlistReader() when an
an attempt to read an invalid net list file occurs.
This method is added for scripting purposes, to be able to query
specific board layer names thru a board object.
If no board specific layer name is found, it will fallback to
standard layer names.
* Add test to CMakeLists.txt to verify wxPython is installed when
KICAD_SCRIPTING_WXPYTHON=ON.
* Add test to make sure wxPython version major and minor numbers match
the version of wxWidgets found.
* Add code to set the correct version of wxPython to the python scripting
initialization code.
* Minor code simplification in Pcbnew KIFACE main window creation.
Rename eeschema/dialogs/dialog_sch_find.fbp to dialog_schematic_find_base.fbp, to be consistent with other dialogs.
Pcbnew run from the project manager: add menu Save Copy As..., which is the same command as Save As ... in stand alone mode, but with the constraints of a project (no cwd change, no board filename change, and keep project settings)
These settings are now not common to the board editor, because the footprint editor can be run outside the board editor.
download_boost.cmake: ignore .htm* files when installing boost. They are not used, and often have a very very long (and stupid) name which sometimes creates issues.
* Delete Single Pad Net option does not delete the net if a zone use this net (i.e. is attached to this pad).
* pcb_parser accept now negative netcodes in zones (can happen with old files, which previously could crash Pcbnew)
* pcb_parser accept now files with incorrect or missing net count (can happen with old files, which previously could crash Pcbnew)
* if a zone has a non-existent net name it now keep this net name, and DRC detect it (previously, the net name was lost, and the DRC did not tected this issue).
* Drc test: now detect a "dead" net, i.e. a net with 0 pads, but still used by a zone. It happens easily after a schematic modification, when a net disappears or is renamed.
* if the current select plugin is the github plugin, one can select some of these libraries and add them to the table
* if the current select plugin is the kicad plugin, one can select some of these libraries and download them to make alocal copy.
They can added to the table after they are downloaded.
* Make generate button the default in Eeschema netlist dialog.
* Fix spacing issues in export IDF dialog.
* Make OK button the default in export IDF dialog.
* Remove unnecessary end dialog code from export IDF dialog.
* Improve resizing of export IDF dialog.
this option was possible only by modifying the way display options are managed.
before these changes, display options were a global DISPLAY_OPTIONS class instance.
Now each EDA_DRAW_FRAME(and derivated classes) includes its own DISPLAY_OPTIONS class instance.
As a consequence, some duplicate display option variables in these classes have been removed, because there were just duplicate variables of the DISPLAY_OPTIONS class instance.
Please, note the layer manager was already available in GAL mode, but is was the same as tne board editor, which is not good.
Now:
- In default mode or GAL mode, the look is the same.
- Only suitable technical layers (i.e. paired layers) are selectable from the layers manager (for special purposes, some other layers can be used, via the graphic items properties dialog)
* Change Read to Load in Pcbnew and Eeschema preference menus.
* Make electrical rules check status bar message the same for both the menu
and toolbar entries.
