Maciej Suminski b445b0fab2 Link eeschema with ngspice DLL
Adds a link-time dependency for libngspice, so that other tools may
detect ngspice as a KiCad dependency.

The library is still loaded with dlopen() as it gives a way to reload it
in case of problems. The DLL name is recognized during CMake
configuration and used to load the library at runtime.

Stefan Brüns d1db2c7621 Use fixed version for libngspice.so.0
CanonicalizeName only adds the lib prefix and .so suffix, so loading
libngspice.so fails until the development package is installed.
MAC/Windows code paths lookup soversion 0 of ngspice as well, as this
is the only compatible version.

Maciej Suminski 4526f40fe1 ngspice: add extra paths to search for libngspice
The main purpose of the patch is to load libngspice from macOS bundle.
There are also some additional paths that could make Windows developers
easier.

Maciej Suminski bad462a228 Spice simulator: reload ngSpice dll on error
ngSpice frequently ends up a simulation with an error:
"Error: ngspice.dll cannot recover and awaits to be detached"
The only way forward is to reload the shared library and
reinitialize ngSpice.

Maciej Suminski 33620ecc85 Revert "libngspice is linked at compile time"
This reverts commit 75f8b20493.
In case of problems, ngspice demands to be detached which is not
possible when it is linked at compile time.

Strings created with strdup() should be deleted using free(), not
delete.

Maciej Suminski 2a6b8f153b NGSPICE as a singleton
One cannot call ngSpice_Init() twice without unloading the dll. When calling
ngSpice_Init, we pass a pointer to a NGSPICE instance and thus it cannot be changed.
When any of the callback function is called with a stale pointer everything crashes.

Maciej Suminski 9f3324bac7 Changed the way ngspice is executed Previously it was run in a wxThread, but it did not allow to issue commands while the simulation is running. If you check ngspice shared library source code, then you will discover "bg_*" commands that executes commands in background, so the simulator still can be controlled. 2016-08-11 14:41:19 +02:00
