! The initial testing of this commit should be done using a Debug build so that
all the wxASSERT()s are enabled. Also, be sure and keep enabled the
USE_KIWAY_DLLs option. The tree won't likely build without it. Turning it
off is senseless anyways. If you want stable code, go back to a prior version,
the one tagged with "stable".
* Relocate all functionality out of the wxApp derivative into more finely
targeted purposes:
a) DLL/DSO specific
b) PROJECT specific
c) EXE or process specific
d) configuration file specific data
e) configuration file manipulations functions.
All of this functionality was blended into an extremely large wxApp derivative
and that was incompatible with the desire to support multiple concurrently
loaded DLL/DSO's ("KIFACE")s and multiple concurrently open projects.
An amazing amount of organization come from simply sorting each bit of
functionality into the proper box.
* Switch to wxConfigBase from wxConfig everywhere except instantiation.
* Add classes KIWAY, KIFACE, KIFACE_I, SEARCH_STACK, PGM_BASE, PGM_KICAD,
PGM_SINGLE_TOP,
* Remove "Return" prefix on many function names.
* Remove obvious comments from CMakeLists.txt files, and from else() and endif()s.
* Fix building boost for use in a DSO on linux.
* Remove some of the assumptions in the CMakeLists.txt files that windows had
to be the host platform when building windows binaries.
* Reduce the number of wxStrings being constructed at program load time via
static construction.
* Pass wxConfigBase* to all SaveSettings() and LoadSettings() functions so that
these functions are useful even when the wxConfigBase comes from another
source, as is the case in the KICAD_MANAGER_FRAME.
* Move the setting of the KIPRJMOD environment variable into class PROJECT,
so that it can be moved into a project variable soon, and out of FP_LIB_TABLE.
* Add the KIWAY_PLAYER which is associated with a particular PROJECT, and all
its child wxFrames and wxDialogs now have a Kiway() member function which
returns a KIWAY& that that window tree branch is in support of. This is like
wxWindows DNA in that child windows get this member with proper value at time
of construction.
* Anticipate some of the needs for milestones B) and C) and make code
adjustments now in an effort to reduce work in those milestones.
* No testing has been done for python scripting, since milestone C) has that
being largely reworked and re-thought-out.
* Improve component chooser redraw to fit in wxWidgets redraw strategies.
* Use LIB_COMPONENT::Draw and LIB_COMPONENT::GetBoundingBox for drawing the
component
* Make resize redrawing work properly.
The desire is to migrate designs *away from* case independence, and to create
designs which use literally (case specific) interpreted component names. But for
backwards compatibility, you may turn OFF this option if you really must.
(Remember that with KiCad using text data files, typically you would be better
off simply doctoring those files into a case literal state with a text editor
and move forward into the brave new world of case specificity. Also, BOM
generators may not work properly when you have this option turned OFF, the xml
export's referential integrity is broken on library part name. Hence the default
is ON now, as of 29-Jan-2014.
In most case the assignment to null was not necessary since it was easily provable that the (local) variable wouldn't have referenced after that anyway.
In particular the new mechanism for handling extended color palettes is in place,
included renaming the ini keys and saving the color name instead of its index; this means better forward compatibility with palette changes.
Since ini keys are changed, colors will be reset
* Complete encapsulation of the MODULE class.
* Complete encapsulation of the EDA_TEXT class.
* Encapsulate most of the ZONE_CONTAINER class.
* Add pcbcommon library as a dependency for reSWIGging the scripting
support. This should cover most dependency cases.
* EDA_DRAW_PANEL completely encapsulated.
* Moved OSX m_overlay member from EDA_DRAW_PANEL to EDA_DRAW_FRAME where
it is used.
* Doxygen comment warning fixes.
* Move the component library save file creation and write error dialogs
into the appropriate frame object.
* Change the save component library and document definitions take an
OUTPUTFORMATTER object instead of a file name.
* Change the component alias save document definition function to take
an OUTPUTFORMATTER object instead of a file handle.
* Use version of DateAndTime that returns a wxString and delete the
version that takes a char* as it is no longer required.
* Merge StrNumICmp() and StrLenNumICmp() into StrLenNumCmp() to create a
single function for comparing strings with integers and remove a lot
of duplicate code.
* Remove unused strupper from string.cpp.
* Use wxArrayString for sorting the EDA_LIST_DIALOG contents.
* Remove most (not all) variables that were initialized but never used that
cause GCC 4.6 to generate a warning.
* Fix bug in schematic library editor best zoom calculation.
Pcbnew: refresh issue with dialog designe rules under wxWidgets 2.9.2 under WINDOWS (replace wxChoiceBox by wxComboBox, should not change anything for users)
Eeschema: some issues in libedit (when editing a pin )
* Create library collector class.
* Add clarification menu to library editor when multiple items are found
at the current position.
* Add get clarification menu text to all objects derived from LIB_ITEM.
* Add get menu bitmap for all objects derived from LIB_ITEM.
* Improve LIB_PIN bounding box calculation.
* Rename LIB_ITEM::DoGenCopy to doClone to match behavior defined in base
class EDA_ITEM.
* Minor class renaming for improved code consistency.
* Added less than operator to EDA_ITEM.
* fix incorrect bounding box size calculation of schematic components.
* fix incorrect bounding box position and size used when schematic components are not found in lib (dummy lib componen used).
Pcbnew:
* Fix issues in block selection for arcs in modedit. Minor code cleaning.
CopyToClipboard: fix incorrect call to PrintPage (bad parameters)
* Merge two duplicate case statement and delete pin code paths into a
single delete function.
* Make all delete commands use new delete function.
* Fix a few set tool ID calls to use default cursor instead of arrow
cursor.
* Old control state handling code completely removed in all applications.
* Factor common control state handlers into EDA_DRAW_FRAME.
* Replaced EDA_ITEM test for newness with IsNew() method.
* Factor vertical right toolbar command handlers out of giant edit command
switch statement in EESchema and PCBNew.
* Remove all occurrences if #ifdef USE_WX_ZOOM and all associated code within
the #else/#endif block ( old zoom code ).
* Removed the build option for USE_WX_ZOOM from CMakeList.txt and config.h.in.
* Removed all scaling code in base screen object.
* Fixed buffered paint and buffered client DC on Windows. Buffering works
properly on Linux and Windows.
* Modified kicad_device_context.h to automatically uses buffering on platforms
where double buffering is supported natively.
* Remove all of the scaled versions of the drawing functions in gr_basic.cpp
and any support code.
* Removed all traces of ActiveScreen global variable from eeschema and
gerbview.
* Renamed Recadre_Trace to RedrawScreen in draw frame object.
* Renamed PostDirtyRect to RefreshDrawingRect in draw panel object.
* Lots of code cleaning an Doxygen comment improvements.
* Move schematic wire and bus break code into schematic screen object.
* Move schematic test for dangling ends into schematic screen object.
* Remove left over debugging output in schematic screen object.
* Remove unused file eeschema/cleanup.cpp.
* Fix bug in schematic line object hit test algorithm.
* Fix a string concatenation compile error added in r2752.
* Rename class WinEDA_BasicFrame to EDA_BASE_FRAME.
* Rename class WinEDA_DrawFrame to EDA_DRAW_FRAME.
* Rename class WinEDA_DrawPanel to EDA_DRAW_PANEL.
Eeschema: cleaning code. Start work to enhance annotation algorithm.
Already added an option to annotate using sheet number (sheet 1 uses numbers 100 to 199, sheet 2 uses 200 to 299..).
Works fine if deleting existing annotation, but needs work to be used when the existing annotation is kept .
