The simulator has advanced considerably, and it is seeing lots of active
development, so make it a required part of KiCad. Additionally, the
build without the simulator has actually been broken for a while, so no
one clearly is building without ngspice right now.
1) More REPORTER, less exception processing
2) Remove UI calls from SPICE_MODEL
3) Don't replace netlist with errors; show both
4) Don't bail out of netlist generation after single error
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/14295
The list of candidates (names) must be restricted to existing global labels
and symbols creating a global net name: power symbols having only one power
input pin (a power output does not create net name).

Also makes the strings match the GUI better so people will know where
to find them later.
And fixes a couple of ERC items that referred to Board Setup (oops).
Don't assume the dialog is mode-less and call Destroy() from within a
dialog method. This will most assuredly crash if the dialog is shown
modally or quasi-modally.
Don't leak memory for mode-less dialogs created on the stack. Make sure
when the parent frame window is closed that all mode-less dialog memory
is cleaned up. Dialogs are not child windows like controls and toolbars
so their memory does not automatically get cleaned up when the parent
window is destroyed.
Do not directly access frame parent window's pointer in dialog destructors.
Apparently the tear down order when destroying mode-less dialogs is not
guaranteed so the parent window may get deleted before the dialog causing
a crash when accessing the parent window pointer from the dialog dtor.
Do not close mode-less dialogs in the parent frame's destructor. This
doesn't guarantee that the dialog(s) will be destroyed before the parent
but it may reduce some careless mode-less dialog event handling in the
future.
- Avoid repetition and errors from typos
- Allow simple changes
- Simpler data type handling, the constants are wxString
(Cherry-picked from f135881bd6 in 7.0)
Note that the PCB editor's propGrid doesn't seem to need this workaround,
but I haven't yet figured out what's different between it and the sim model
propGrid.

This adds Reset() method to KIFACE to reload global libs stored in
global static vars.
Also refactors some lib reload code in various frames to have
common MAIL_RELOAD_LIB handler.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/12500
Create() is done without execption processing, while ReadDataFields
should have exception processing.
(This also fixes a case where exception processing on ReadDataFields
was missing.)
Also fixes a bug where the pinSelect menu wasn't checked for -1 before
fetching.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/13856
Also fixes a bug so that voltages, currents and power dissipations are
only probed if the flag is set -- this keeps ngspice from throwing an
error if you probe something twice (for instance, if you have .probe
commands in text and turn off the auto-probing).
Remove some useless spacers, and do not force some widgets to have a to
large size (by removing empty areas).
Work in progress: one panel is still too big.
Rather than update library symbols one at a time, queue them up by
schematic symbol to prevent multiple updates to the same symbol in
complex hierarchies. This also removes all of the library symbols
first which will clear out all of the library symbol variants that
were created by modifying library symbols in place and/or changes to
the symbol in the library.
Don't add new variant library symbol if an equivalent variant already
exists in the schematic local cache. This prevents duplicate library
symbols from being added to the local cache when the first variant in
the cache does not match that of the symbol being added.
Fixes#10926
Contains the following changes:
- Adds a new ERC_SCH_PIN_CONTEXT class which is used to provide deterministic
comparison between items causing ERC violations (e.g. pins) when associated
with a SCH_SHEET_PATH context.
- Adds association of SCH_SHEET_PATHs for ERC_ITEMs and the sub-schematic items
which caused an ERC violation. This allows correct display of markers on the
sheets of interest only, and allows correct naming resolution and cross-probing
from the ERC dialog.
- Adds a new ERC_TREE_MODEL class, derived from RC_TREE_MODEL, which correctly
resolves component references across heirarchical sheets using the associated
SCH_SHEET_PATHs. This allows sheet-specific component references to be displayed
correctly in the ERC results tree.
- Updates SCH_MARKER to only draw sheet-specific markers on the sheet causing
an ERC violation.
- Increments the schematic file version.
- When loading a schematic with legacy ERC exclusions, discards those of type
ERCE_PIN_TO_PIN_WARNING, ERCE_PIN_TO_PIN_ERROR, ERCE_HIERACHICAL_LABEL, and
ERCE_DIFFERENT_UNIT_NET as there is no safe way to automatically infer the
information which is now stored with these exclusions (sheet paths for error
location and related items). Requiring users to (once) re-add exclusions is
preferable to silently incorrectly matching new ERC issues to legacy exclusions.
The pressure relief valve was not useful for common work patterns as it
forced the recalculation on many common actions such as bus expansion.
This caused it to actually feel slower than with the pressure relief
valve off.
For most schematics, realtime is now fast enough to not need the valve
and for those that are extremely complex, removing the valve helps this
run more predictably
This iterated over all pins to find the pin after a given item. Because
out pattern is consistently to iterate in the outer loop, this means
that we were an O(n^2) loop for the pins just to find their names. This
affected very large parts (e.g. FPGAs) when switching sheets to display
