ADDED: First-run dialog for migrating settings from a previous version
CHANGED: Settings are now stored as JSON files instead of wxConfig-style INI files
CHANGED: Color settings are now all stored in a separate settings file
CHANGED: The symbol editor and footprint editor now have their own settings files
CHANGED: Color settings are no longer exposed through BOARD object
CHANGED: Page layout editor now uses Eeschema's color scheme
Settings are now managed through a central SETTINGS_MANAGER held by PGM_BASE.
Existing settings will be migrated from the wxConfig format on first run of each application.
Per-application settings are now stored in one class for each application.
This moves EESchema DLIST structures to rtree. These changes are more
fundamental than the pcbnew changes from 9163ac543888c01d11d1877d7c1
and 961b22d60 as eeschema operations were more dependent on passing
drawing list references around with SCH_ITEM* objects.
Use the root symbol when comparing against the cached symbol when
checking to see if a symbol changed. When the original symbol is
a derived symbol, the test will always fail.
Force a symbol link refresh on a rescue to prevent stale links from
crashing the connection graph refresh when running the project rescue
on demand.
Force a symbol link refresh on project load to prevent stale links from
symbol link changes from crashing the connection graph when the project
rescue in invoked.

The new connectivity algorithm had a tendency to cleanup
globally, but that could insert undo records from other sheets

Remove an existing sheet from the current page that requires a schematic
load from file to prevent a corrupt screen list from causing a segfault.
Merge the edit sheet file loading with the append schematic code since
they are functionally the same. This allows the sheet edit code to
take advantage of all of the added broken symbol library links added in

.kicad_pcb-bak or other backups.
(cherry picked from commit b6fe4ff637)
Do not add cache library from another project to old library list. This
is wrong and can cause all kinds of symbol library linking issues. It's
better to force the user to fix broken symbol library links than the false
security of using multiple cache libraries.
Use correct paths when appending schematic outside of the current project
path when hierarchical sheets are appended. If the path can be relative,
give the user the option to use either relative or absolute paths.
Do not change symbol library names in schematics appended from a source
outside the current project. This will almost ensure the symbol library
links will be broken in the source project.
When the appended schematic is from another project, attempt to check all
of the possible combinations of symbol library table importing that could
cause broken symbol library links and give the user the option of canceling
the append operation or live with the possibility that there may be broken
symbol library links.
When the append schematic is in the current project path but not part of
the schematic, check to see if there are any library nicknames that do
no exist in the project symbol library table and give the user a chance
to cancel the append process.
EEschema optimizes wires by merging colinear segments. If a schematic opened without a valid
cache library or missing installed libraries and later saved, this optimization can cause connectivity
errors. In order to fix that we check each pin-wire connection and junctions if necessary.
Also changes the presentation of the string when the checkbox appears
so that the "Changes will be lost" warning isn't hidden by the turndown.
This last part may require conditional compilation as it's undocumented.
Lastly, regularizes the Unsaved Changes strings between the apps.
After importing Eagle files, we need to make sure that the connectivity
network is updated before the system requests a new netlist. Otherwise,

Autosave was not working correctly, partly due to different
implementations in eeschema and pcbnew and partly due to a mistaken
refactor at some point during v5 development. This unifies the expected
autosave prefix to _autosave- for both pcbnew and eeschema. It also
unifies the expected suffix for the backup files to -bak.

Do not keep pointer to SCH_EDIT_FRAME in the rescuer object to prevent
it from creating dialogs with itself as the parent when call from the
rescue dialog which is itself a grandchild of the frame window.
Eagle can label nets independently of the connection point position. In
an "interestingly" designed circuit, this can lead to a junction of a
pin, wire endpoint and unrelated wire. While this is bad practice,
KiCad shouldn't force an incorrect net connection during the import. In
this case, we skip the addition of junctions to ensure that we don't
create a schematic error.

When importing an existing schematic into a sheet that was no remapped
to use the symbol library table, the user was given the option to ignore
the warning and proceed with the import. This would end up with all of
the imported symbol links being broke. In hindsight, this was a bad
idea so now the user cannot import schematics that have been remapped.

Also adds indicators in layers palette for feedback.
Also generates sized images for all indicators instead of using
scaled bitmaps (which didn't look great).
Also fixes a completely unrelated typo in a UI string.
The Windows drive specifier C: was being interpreted as a valid URL by
wxURI which was performing a URL comparison instead of a file comparison
which always failed in LIB_TABLE_BASE::FindRowByURI(). Change test for
URI to search string for "://" to determine if the comparison should be
a URI (string) comparison or a file (wxFileName) comparison.
Don't run final rescue unless the user performs the remapping.
Standalone eeschema did not have the project path set when importing
a non-KiCad sheet. Due to this any libraries created during the import
were saved to the directory of eeschema executable instead of the actual
schematic directory.
With the implementation of the legacy schematic plugin, any I/O error
when parsing the schematics would prevent the entire schematic from
being loaded. This change restores (somewhat) the previous behavior
where as long as the root schematic is loaded properly, then all of
the remaining sub-sheet will attempt to load.
Add GetError() method the SCH_PLUGIN object to allow for partial
schematic loading.

files.
Use an HTML control instead of a static text control for improved layout

Use the legacy plugin schematic loader in the sheet edit and append
schematic code paths.
Check for fully qualified LIB_ID objects (must have library nickname)
when loading existing schematics when edit sheets.
Rewrite append schematic feature to handle import issues rather than
change the name and file name of all of the sheets in the imported
schematic. This includes the following:
- Load the schematic into a temporary SCH_SHEET object.
- Make sure the imported schematic does not cause any hierarchy
recursion issues.
- Verify the imported schematic uses fully qualified #LIB_ID objects
(symbol library table).
- Check to see if any symbol libraries need to be added to the current
project's symbol library table. This includes:
- Check if the symbol library already exists in the project or global
symbol library table.
- Convert symbol library URLS that use the ${KIPRJMOD} environment
variable to absolute paths. ${KIPRJMOD} will not be the same for
this project.
- Check for duplicate symbol library nicknames and change the new symbol
library nickname to prevent library name clashes.
- Update all schematic symbol LIB_ID object library nicknames when the
library nickname was changed to prevent clashes.
- Check for duplicate sheet names which is illegal and automatically
rename any duplicate sheets in the imported schematic.
- Clear all of the annotation in the imported schematic to prevent
clashes.
- Append the objects from the temporary sheet to the current page.
- Replace any duplicate time stamps.

The GTK+ file dialog is case sensitive however it does support regular
expressions. Most of the file dialog wildcards are lower case so only
files with the lower case extensions will show up in the file dialog.
This code adds a method to convert file extensions of any case to the
appropriate (sch -> [sS][cC][hH]) regular expression on GTK+ builds so
all file extension case combinations will show up in the file dialog.
A note to developers: make sure to add a file extension when setting
when setting the default file argument. If you do don't set an
extension, the GTK+ file dialog will happily append the regular
expression as the file extension which is surely not what you want.
There are still a few known places (mostly gerbview) where there are
some complex wildcard code that has not been converted.

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.
* Add SCH_PLUGIN::Save() for current file format and code for saving all
SCH_XXX objects.
* Add function to SCH_FIELD to get the position of the field in the component
not the position added to the component position which is what GetPosition()
does. This was required because saving the component field expects position
of the field sans the position of the component.
* Remove public members from BITMAP_BASE object and fix all associated
code.
* Fix the never ending coding policy violations found making these changes.
* Create a new dummy root sheet and screen when the schematic fails to load
which was causing Eeschema to crash.
* Remove conversion from UTF8 to wxString left over from a previous change
which hopefully will fix an OSX build error.
* Fix parsing of text objects to handle version 1 schematic files.
* Fix parsing of component fields to handle version 1 schematic files.
* Don't throw a parse error when a version 1 schematic file doesn't end with
$EndSCHEMATC.
* Factor out PROPERTIES object from the PCB plugin code and move it into
common so it can be used by both the Pcbnew and Eeschema plugins.
* Add schematic I/O plugin manager for loading and saving schematic and
component library files.
* Add initial attempt at a parser for current schematic file format. This
parser will be infinitely more strict than the current parser which is very
forgiving in what it parses.
* Make minor changes to the base bitmap class to support the new parser.
* Add find root sheet support to sheet object to allow fetching the root
sheet from any sheet in the stack.
* Ensure proper SCH_SHEET object page numbering which caused annotation to
calculate incorrect reference designators when annotating by using page offsets.
* Added SetPageNumbers to SCH_SHEET for setting sheet page numbers after
schematic is loaded.
* Make SCH_SHEET parent the SCH_SHEET object that loaded it. This preserves
the hierarchy when the schematic is loaded.
* Add function to SCH_SHEET to find the root sheet from any sheet in the
hierarchy.
* Add functions to SCH_SHEET to create the path and human readable paths for
any sheet without relying on the external SCH_SHEET_PATH object.
* Remove function LocatePathOfScreen from SCH_SHEET since it was not used
anywhere.
* Add human readable path to message panel information for SCH_SHEET.
* Set the name of the root sheet to "root" instead of the default generated
when a new SCH_SHEET is created.
* Set the empty sheet name and file name to "root" and "noname.sch" when
Eeschema is opened with no schematic.
* When no item is at the current position on a left mouse click, show the
current sheet information in the message panel.
* Add less than operator for sorting SCH_SHEET objects by path length and
time stamps when the path lengths are the same.
- Slightly change the info text in the dialog. Add a definition of exactly what it means to "rescue" a component.
- Reload the project libraries when a project is opened, even if kicad is already running and the same project is open (to be sure the lib cache is up to date).
- Set the Modified flag on cancel, because a change has indeed been made (choosing not to rescue is equivalent to updating the components)
* auto-save was broken for all sub sheets with are in a sub-directory of the project directory. (reason wxFileName::Normalize(), used to create the absolute path has issues with filenames starting by '$', perhaps due to env var which also start by $). the auto-save prefix is modified ( now AUTOSAVE_PREFIX_FILENAME which defines "_save_" ) and defined only once.
* auto-save files from sub-sheets were not found due to the fact the path was not set (fixed by Blair Bonnet's patch)
* Add code to test if any of the components in the schematic cache have been changed
in the component libraries.
* Prompt user to accept or reject components when changes are found.
* If the user chooses to use the components in the cache, create a new library with the old
components and add it to the beginning of the component library list so the schematic will
not be changed.
* Create dialogs to handle user feedback and status.
* move not shared files (sch_item_struct.*, sch_base_frame.h) to eeschema;
* move wxEeschemaStruct.h to eeschema and rename it schframe.h to be consistent with the other corresponding file name schframe.cpp;

*) Remove all chdir() calls so projects don't need to be CWD.
*) Romove APPEND support from OpenProjectFiles().
*) Make OpenProjectFiles() robust, even for creating new projects.
*) Load EESCHEMA colors in the KIWAY::OnKiwayStart() rather in window open,

*) Fix bug with wxDir() while accessing protected dirs in kicad.exe
*) Consolidate template copying into PROJECT class, not in kicad.exe source.
*) Generally untangle eeschema, making its libraries not global but rather
held in the PROJECT.
Also fix incorrect backannotation when footprint names contain spaces (put spaces in names is always a bad idea)
* Fix minor Bug #1349058 Choose component dialog: Search field loses focus after entering a character and internationalize the dialog.
* Fix a subtle bug which prevent eeschema to read the project config file when launched from kicad manager, and when kicad.pro is not found.
! 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,

* 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

* Change Pcbnew message dialog when loading a board if the current board
is modified to be more consistent with the exit dialog.
* Remove some Eeschema block debug logging code left over from my last

Fix an annoying issue about not named nets:
now, these nets are named from the component references and pin names which are connected.
therefore, unless the net or the footprint references are modified, the net name is not modified between 2 netlist calculations.
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.
