Previously, bus elements that were not instantiated as individual nets
could not connect to each other. This caused issues for complex
schematics where busses needed to connect to other busses with elements
that resolved to the same net names. Functionally, this means mixing
bus elements, which we will replace with first-class elements in version
8 but currently can only be accomplished either by using bus aliases and
this patch or by individually instantiating each bus element as a
local label

(cherry picked from commit 16b4ec3c7e)
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).

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.

(cherry picked from commit 2975f53647)
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.

(cherry picked from commit c188318174)
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.

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
EDA_ITEMs are responsible for giving their parent a crack at it if
they failed to resolve it. This recurses all the way up to the schematic/
board, and then to the project.
Cross-reference handling is also move to the EDA_ITEMs. It must be done
before bubbling up so that we don't end up in loops. (The aDepth parameter
will break the loop, but without having done anything useful.)
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/13541
We only need to parse the libraries for the Sim Model Editor dialog
(so that we can determine the models to put in the popup). Doing it
for netlisting just opens us up to incorrectly parsing the SPICE, and
returns no value.
This also means that a SIM_LIB_MGR manages a single library, and
never multiple libraries.
This also allows the tidying-up of some error reporting structures to
better inform the user what went wrong.
