These pads were plotted as a segment. This is not the right way.
Pads must be flashed or plotted as regions, not painted.
They are now plotted as Gerber regions round rectangle pads.
These regions are similar to flashed pads.
Previously, the region was a usual polygon with arc approximated by segment.
Using a region with arcs is a better way because it allows CAM tools to
identify this region as a round-rect pad.
A side effect is a better shape and smaller files, however not really noticeable in fact.
Please note that the symbol cache is not embedded in the schematic file
to allow for round robin testing with the existing file format. Once
the parser round robin testing is complete, the symbol cache will be
embedded in the schematic file.
Previously, for historical reasons, they were added only if
Include Netlist Attributes option was on.
But Aperture Attributes have nothing to do with Netlist Attributes, and good
Gerber files must include them.
Let cmake generate the needed version strings, so we don't
have to spend program time doing it. This simplifies the
settings manager versioning.
Also, convert some file line endings to UNIX from Windows.
A more robust fix for https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/4015.
Some buggy SVG interpreters can't handle 0-length ovals. In this case,
they are meant to be circles, so we can export as circles in our
plotter.

When editing pcb items, the creation of a new net to connect existing
pads or traces can be a useful shortcut. This inserts the ability to
optionally create a new net from the Net Selector dropdown menu.
The canvas size is not guaranteed to be strictly > 0, so we need to
enforce a minimum returned size before dividing by it or passing to GAL
initialization
Replace SEVERITY_ERROR by RPT_SEVERITY_ERROR to avoid collision with a system definition.
Replace other SEVERITY_XXX by RPT_SEVERITY_XX for consistency.
Fix compil warnings and some other compil issues.
CHANGES: Symbol library file format has been converted to s-expressions.
Add support code for picking apart symbols at some future junction that
will allow full inheritance conversion of existing symbol libraries. For
now, symbols arranged by unit and body style numbers are nested for round
robin testing of symbol libraries once the parser is complete.
Config values were not stored into the right variables.
Make also an option persistent during the session
in DIALOG_UPDATE_PCB and DIALOG_NETLIST
DIALOG_UPDATE_PCB and DIALOG_NETLIST match options: use same order in dialogs.
Keeping a pointer to the actual file history inside a special
file history menu led to many cases of use after free crashes,
so instead rework the actual file history to add the menu
items.

For some reason, OSX won't return the minimum window size properly
using GetMinWidth/GetMinHeight, so it would not properly adjust
windows with saved size (0,0).
It is already added with MSVC, and must be added with gcc/mingw
However, the cmake option:
add_definitions( -DBOOST_UUID_FORCE_AUTO_LINK )
does not work on msys2 (at least with my cmake version), so another syntax is used.
CHANGED: Settings are now stored in versioned sub-directories
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.
Using a UTF8 char inside a C string can work on unix, but not on Windows.
It must be explicitly converted in a unicode value inside a wide string
(like a wxString)
When adding a .pretty library, if the actual .pretty folder were
selected then no folder would be added to the list of libraries.
This led to an assert when normalizing paths, and the library
not being added.
Add also a comment in common.cpp about using wxLocale instead of setlocale.
DIALOG_UPDATE_FIELDS has issues in non English languages, due to its design.
The fix for mandatory fields is only a partial fix that avoid major issues.
The immediate action option clears (or not) the position of the events.
We use this to determine if the command should start at the given
position or merely activate the tool. This was being checked in the
menu options, which only activated for tool commands in the context
menu. Moving to the process event, we catch hotkeys as well.
This also restores the previous logic in eeschema that used a static
variable for storing wires rather than the private class variable.
Starting the draw event now picks up from the existing wires when
activated in immediate mode.

Previously we call only setlocale( xx, "C" ), but it was not enough on Windows.
Now we call wxLocale("C")
wxLocale calls setlocale, but also make some others initialization in wxWidgets.
It fixes some issues related to comma versus point as fp separator.
Especially wxWidgets warnings are no longer thrown, and a one case of incorrect
conversion is fixed.
The combination of left over test code in lib_id.h/cpp and the changes
to handle the DEBUG compiler flag correctly on all platforms exposed a
swig issue on debug builds. Removing the offending test from lib_id.h
resolved the issue.
ADDED: Back annotation algorithm,
eeschema back annotation dialog
CHANGED: added some minor helper methods to SCH_REFERENCE_LIST and SCH_REFERENCE,
split SCH_REFERENCE_LIST::CheckAnnotation on 2 parts to reuse code
Use the proper encoding to prevent extraneous conversion encoding conversion inside UnescapeString(). This change reduces the eeschema symbol library loading time (ubuntu and windows build) from 2700ms to 1700ms.
See merge request https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/merge_requests/70
This also removes vector cover types which do nothing except obfuscate
the underlying implementation.
Mainly changes SCH_SHEET_PINS and CONFIG_PARAM_ARRAY (which will soon
be replaced by Jon's new stuff).
When printing (using DC context) the bitmap will clear the full screen
unless the clipping region is set to the image itself.
Addresses KSC ticket 126
Fixes#1877 | https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/1877
Bitmaps scale internally to 100nm instead of 1mil. There is a better
way to do this but I think we'll be adjusting it again when Cairo
printing in finished.
It served us (mostly) well for more than a decade. It helped KiCad grow
before the std:: came into decent shape or speed. It was a good little
list.
RIP DLIST 2008-2020
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.
The old methods were very clunky and not recommended (and didn't
properly cast the function types). This changes to useing the
recommended way of declaring events and casting the event handlers.
For legacy reasons, it stored left and right "spin" as flipped integers in the file format.
But the code handled the flip in multiple locations rather than just doing it on file io.
This change unifies the internal code and does the mapping in the file I/O.
