Fixed some issues with wxWidgets 2.9.1 (fixed Gerbview and Pcbnew crashes under Linux when starting. Could explain also crashes under MACOSX)
Code cleaning.
pcbnew:
Added experimental zone fill calculations with boost::polygon
old file zones_convert_brd_items_to_polygons.cpp has now 2 versions:
zones_convert_brd_items_to_polygons_with_Boost.cpp use boost::polygon to calculate filled areas
zones_convert_brd_items_to_polygons_with_BKbool.cpp use kbool (code cleaned).
>>> to use boost polygon version:
call cmake with option: -DUSE_BOOST_POLYGON_LIBRARY=ON
Eeschema: added patches from Yuri Khalyavin
inches and mm, the industry is crazy enough to force us with mixed
design. For example I routinely use imperial units for track size and
clearance, but drilling is strictly a metric issue...
So I added a little parser to recognize a suffix specification in the
unit text boxes... so you can put in things like:
1in (1 inch)
1" (idem)
25th (25 thou)
25mi (25 mils, the same)
6mm (6 mm, obviously)
The rules are: spaces between the number and the unit are accepted, only
the first two letters are significant.
As a bonus, it also recognize the period (.) as a decimal point
substituting it with the correct locale character (there was a wishlist
for it, IIRC). Most useful for number pad fans :D
* Fix a minor problem with wxFileDialog to open a file that no longer
exists in PCBNew.
* Make GerbView open file behavior the same as PCBNew.
* Remove redundant PCB file wild card definition.
* Add open file refactor task to the todo list.
* Fix some minor code formatting issues.
* PCBNew remembers last net list read during the current editing session
as well as between project editing sessions. Closes bug 576902.
* Separate PCBNew application settings from project file settings and
allocate them dynamically instead of statically to make it easier to
eliminate global variables.
* Add CMake script to generate DSN token header and source file from
token list file.
* Add preliminary component library DSN token list and lexer file to
test script and prepare for new component library file lexer.
* EESchema: right click on ERC check mark displays error in message panel.
* Remove PCBNew header file dependency from common DSN lexer source.
* Minor code clean ups.
Pcbnew: Fixed an issue in GERBER file creation, under Vista and W7 only for non administrator users
Plot files were 0 byte length.
This was due to use of function tmpfile() in a GERBER function to create a temporary file that seems not working using mingw.
Replaced by more usual files functions.
* Some bugs fixed
* Starting enhancements in Libedit: menubar and commands to "plot" current component in PNG or SVF file (SVG file not fully working, must be refined)
* Replaced find dialog with wxFormBuilder version.
* New find dialog is modeless, supports more advanced search features,
remembers it's last position, size, search history, and search settings,
and implements initial support for replacing.
* Added Shift+F5 hot key to search for next DRC marker. F5 now just
repeats previous search.
* Minor cosmetic enhancements to label edit dialog.
* Remove tab from grid size text printf to fix toolbar grid combobox
display in wxGTK.
* Updated my TODO list items.
* DSNLEXER now owns an abstract LINE_READER by pointer so that polymorphism
can be used in alternative LINE_READERS.
* Write FILE_LINE_READER and STRING_LINE_READER. The latter can be used
to parse text coming from the clipboard or other string source.
This paves the way for other kinds of LINE_READERs, such as one which reads from a
multiline string which comes from the clipboard.
Will still need to:
1) add new additional DSN_LEXER constructor,
2) virtualize the LINE_READER's ReadLine() function
3) create derived class from LINE_READER.
* Make USE_WX_ZOOM clipping routine actually clip rather than just test
if line needs drawn.
* Clean up as many USE_WX_ZOOM #ifdefs as possible.
* Minor coordinate rounding improvements.
* Minor scrolling and panning improvements.
* Remove unused KicadGraphicContext object code.
