* Fix -Woverloaded-virtual warning in DIALOG_LIB_NEW_COMPONENT class
definition.
* Make EDA_ITEM::Matches( const wxString& wxFindReplaceData& ) protected
since it's a helper function that should only be called by derived objects.
- Converted the Next/Prev C casts to static casts and removed the type
unsafe ones
- Splitted as virtual the VIA::Flip member instead of using RTTI
- Heavily refactored the 'unconnected track' cleanup routine
- Misc constification
Pcbnew: Code cleaning and bug fix in autoplace functions
Dialog exchange footprints has now a separate button to update the .cmp file, only on request.
Eagle plugin: filter and replace not allowed chars in FPID(-':' and '/') by _ or -, if they are used in Eagle footprint names (otherwise, boards converted and saved under kicad_pcb format are not readable by Pcbnew).
* Fix replace bug to handle case sensitivity properly.
* Fix replace bug where the item index was getting updated incorrectly.
* Fix replace infinite loop bug on replace all.
* Make find/replace view update code a separate function.
* Rearrange find/replace trace string to add tracing to EDA_ITEM::Replace().
* Add IsComplexHierarchy method to SCH_SHEET_LIST for future find/replace
improvements.
1. block created from-left-to-right selects only 100%inside selection objects (as it now does)
2.block created from-right-to-left selects all overlapping objects inside selection
From the patch sent by mathieulj (mathieulj), and some fixes and code cleaning.
New classes:
- VIEW - represents view that is seen by user, takes care of layer ordering & visibility and how it is displayed (which location, how much zoomed, etc.)
- VIEW_ITEM - Base class for every item that can be displayed on VIEW (the biggest change is that now it may be necessary to override ViewBBox & ViewGetLayers method for derived classes).
- EDA_DRAW_PANEL_GAL - Inherits after EDA_DRAW_PANEL, displays VIEW output, right now it is not editable (in opposite to usual EDA_DRAW_PANEL).
- GAL/OPENGL_GAL/CAIRO_GAL - Base Graphics Abstraction Layer class + two different flavours (Cairo is not fully supported yet), that offers methods to draw primitives using different libraries.
- WX_VIEW_CONTROLS - Controller for VIEW, handles user events, allows zooming, panning, etc.
- PAINTER/PCB_PAINTER - Classes that uses GAL interface to draw items (as you may have already guessed - PCB_PAINTER is a class for drawing PCB specific object, PAINTER is an abstract class). Its methods are invoked by VIEW, when an item has to be drawn. To display a new type of item - you need to implement draw(ITEM_TYPE*) method that draws it using GAL methods.
- STROKE_FONT - Implements stroke font drawing using GAL methods.
Most important changes to Kicad original code:
* EDA_ITEM now inherits from VIEW_ITEM, which is a base class for all drawable objects.
* EDA_DRAW_FRAME contains both usual EDA_DRAW_PANEL and new EDA_DRAW_PANEL_GAL, that can be switched anytime.
* There are some new layers for displaying multilayer pads, vias & pads holes (these are not shown yet on the right sidebar in pcbnew)
* Display order of layers is different than in previous versions (if you are curious - you may check m_galLayerOrder@pcbnew/basepcbframe.cpp). Preserving usual order would result in not very natural display, such as showing silkscreen texts on the bottom.
* Introduced new hotkey (Alt+F12) and new menu option (View->Switch canvas) for switching canvas during runtime.
* Some of classes (mostly derived from BOARD_ITEM) now includes ViewBBox & ViewGetLayers methods.
* Removed tools/class_painter.h, as now it is extended and included in source code.
Build changes:
* GAL-based rendering option is turned on by a new compilation CMake option KICAD_GAL.
* When compiling with CMake option KICAD_GAL=ON, GLEW and Cairo libraries are required.
* GAL-related code is compiled into a static library (common/libgal).
* Build with KICAD_GAL=OFF should not need any new libraries and should come out as a standard version of Kicad
Currently most of items in pcbnew can be displayed using OpenGL (to be done are DIMENSIONS and MARKERS).
More details about GAL can be found in: http://www.ohwr.org/attachments/1884/view-spec.pdf
* Improve MSG_PANEL_ITEM to handle message panel information.
* Create containers for passing message panel items between objects and
the message panel.
* Rename EDA_ITEM::DisplayInfo to EDA_ITEM::GetMsgPanelInfo.
* Remove all direct manipulation of EDA_DRAW_FRAME from all objects derived
from EDA_ITEM.
* Move board item object Format() functions into PCB_IO object.
* Change file format to use layer names instead of numbers.
* Change file extension to kicad_pcb.
* Move EDA_TEXT object into separate header and source file.
* Compile EDA_TEXT class separately for BOARD_ITEM and SCH_ITEM units.
* Compile PAGE_INFO class separately for BOARD_ITEM and SCH_ITEM units.
* Minor formatting tweaks to Pcbnew s-expression file.
* Move internal unit formatting functions into BOARD_ITEM and SCH_ITEM.
* Add s-expression Format() function to all objects derived from
BOARD_ITEM.
* Add s-expression Format() function to base objects as required.
* Add functions to convert coordinates from base internal units
(nanometers) to millimeter string for writing to s-expression
file.
* Add temporary dummy conversion functions to prevent link errors
until schematic and board object and action code can be separated
into DSO/DLL.
* Add CMake build option to build Pcbnew with nanometer internal
units.
* BLOCK_SELECTOR class is not longer derived from EDA_ITEM.
* Encapsulate BLOCK_SELECTOR class member variables and add access methods.
* Move HandleBlockBegin() function from block_commande.cpp to drawframe.cpp.
* Remove virtual methods from top level derived objects per future
coding policy change.
* Remove Doxygen copydoc statement from objects derived from EDA_ITEM
since the comments are automatically copied to the derived object.
* Removed copy and pasted Doxygen comments from objects derived from
EDA_ITEM.
issue in cast to wxRect fixed (EDA_RECT accepts negative size, but not wxRect, so the wxRectcast is normalized now).
This fixes some bugs.
A minor other bug fix in Pcbnew.
* All objects derived from EDA_ITEM now have consistent hit test method
definitions.
* Remove double function calls from all classes derived from SCH_ITEM.
* Lots of Doxygen comment fixes.
* Remove unnecessary copy constructors from schematic and component
library objects.
* Add comment to class definitions where the default copy constructor
generated by the compiler was adequate.
* Add assignment operator to EDA_ITEM, SCH_ITEM, and all schematic
objects where the default assignment operator generated by the
compiler would not be adequate.
