Create a new dialog to edit global and project specific symbol library
tables.
Add menu entries for new symbol library table editor in schematic editor
and symbol library editor main frame menus.
Add command event handler for symbol library table editor dialog to
SCH_BASE_FRAME so it is accessible from derived frames.
Fix bug in default environment variables initialization. A test for
existing user defined environment variables was preventing any new
default environment variables added to the list from being initialized.
Create a dialog to give the user options to configure the global symbol
library table the first time Eeschema is run when no global symbol library
table exists.
Add Resolve() and ResolveAll() methods the SCH_COMPONENT object to use the
symbol library table to obtain links to the library symbols.
Add LoadAlias() method to SYMBOL_LIB_TABLE to find an alias by it's LIB_ID.
Clean up Doxygen comments to match coding policy changes.
Add loading symbol library table code to schematic PROJECT object.
Fix minor issues with loading global symbol library table.
Add default symbol library path environment variable to the environment
variable list and change the variable name to KICAD_SYMBOL_DIR.
Add code to SCH_SCREENS to test if all library nicknames of the symbol
library IDs are empty.
Remove unnecessary KICAD_USE_SCH_IO_MANAGER build option.
Add SCH_PLUGIN object to PART_LIB object.
Convert all PART_LIB I/O to use SCH_PLUGIN.
Remove library caching from PART_LIB and use caching provided by SCH_PLUGIN.
Add support to use PROPERTIES for buffering and document file write control
instead of adding code the SCH_PLUGIN object in the SCH_LEGACY_PLUGIN that
will not be required when the new file formats are implemented.
Add buffering to SCH_LEGACY_PLUGIN to prevent cache from writing file on
every change to library. This is to prevent the cache library from being
written every time a new symbol is added.
Add option to not save library document file when saving library. This is
primarily used by the cache library write code.
Move symbol library write code out of LIB_PART and into SCH_LEGACY_PLUGIN.
Add exception handling where LIB_PART caught the exception and returned
an error status.
Remove KICAD_SCH_IO_MANAGER build option as it is no longer optional.
Rename FPID to LIB_ID as is now used as a generic library identifier and
is no longer specific to footprints.
Remove all mention of footprint from the new LIB_ID doxygen comments and
code.
Rename files fpid.h and fpid.cpp to lib_id.h and lib_id.cpp.
Rename fp_lib_table.keywords file to lib_table.keywords and adjust CMake
build dependencies accordingly.
Update all source files effected by the code and file name changes.
Update .gitignore for file name changes.
Create SYM_LIB_TABLE and SYMBOL_LIB_TABLE_ROW objects derived from LIB_TABLE
and LIB_TABLE_ROW respectively for supporting symbol library tables.
Add FPID member to LIB_PART for associating a symbol to a specific library
nickname. Please note, this is not used in any way at this time and will be
implemented when the symbol library table is actually implemented.
Add sym_lib_table keyword to keywords file. This is a temporary measure
until a more elegant method for parsing and formatting library tables can
be implemented.
Build FPID support in the common library instead of the pcbcommon library
for use in Eeschema.
