jean-pierre charras e5e388f2b4 Help files: can now be html or pdf files: Kicad search first for a .html help file, and if not found in a path, search for the corresponding .pdf file.
Therefore our .pdf files can be replaced at any time  by .html corresponding files in kicad doc/help sub directories.

jean-pierre charras 020a0ae477 All: Fix crash on close Kicad, when a quasi modal dialog is open, and Kicad is closed from the Kicad project manager. 2014-08-29 19:49:49 +02:00
Dick Hollenbeck 3b0712873a Modular-Kicad milestone B), glamorous portions:
*) Eeschema can now show the footprint editor.

*) Eeschema can now invoke the footprint picker from the library part field editor.

*) KIWAY_PLAYER::ShowModal() takes aResultantFocusWindow that tells what window
   to give the focus to.  Required since frames are often near the top of the
   hierarchy and they are invoked by a peer, not a parent.

Dick Hollenbeck 7a0093b0c4 typeinfo.h missing in Debug build for wx2.8 2014-05-04 15:27:29 -05:00
Dick Hollenbeck 80a402a369 wx 2.8 now builds, but the quasi-modal support seems broken on 2.8. Wanted others to be able to build at least. 2014-05-04 14:57:44 -05:00
Dick Hollenbeck a2227a75b4 Modular-Kicad milestone B), minor portions:
*) KIWAY_PLAYER::IsModal() is now a retained state, controlled by SetModal()

*) Fully re-work the KIWAY_PLAYER::ShowModal() to use a nested event loop.

*) Add support to DIALOG_SHIM for a "quasi-modal" dialog presentation and mode.
   See top of dialog_shim.cpp about that for benefits and need.

*) You can now pick footprint from the schematic component field dialog, although
   if you do this before you open the BOARD, you will only get the global footprint
   libraries, not also the project specific ones.  Opening the BOARD first avoids this
   problem.

This is the first example of cross KIFACE invocation, it is also the first
instance of using a TOP_FRAME other than FRAME_PCB as the first thing. It works,
but it's missing support for opening the project specific table because
historically the FRAME_PCB did that. This is now starting to expose all the near
term needs for KIWAY_PLAYER <-> PROJECT interaction, independence and out of
sequence usage.

A fix for this will be coming in a few days.

However it mostly starts to show why the KIWAY is terribly useful and important.

Dick Hollenbeck 991926d320 Modular-Kicad milestone B), major portions:
*) Rework the set language support, simplify it by using KIWAY.  Now any major
   frame with a "change language" menu can change the language for all KIWAY_PLAYERs
   in the whole KIWAY.  Multiple KIWAYs are not supported yet.

*) Simplify "modal wxFrame" support, and add that support exclusively to
   KIWAY_PLAYER where it is inherited by all derivatives.  The function
   KIWAY_PLAYER::ShowModal() is in the vtable and so is cross module capable.

*) Remove the requirements and assumptions that the wxFrame hierarchy always
   had PCB_EDIT_FRAME and SCH_EDIT_FRAME as immediate parents of their viewers
   and editors. This is no longer the case, nor required.

*) Use KIWAY::Player() everywhere to make KIWAY_PLAYERs, this registers the
   KIWAY_PLAYER within the KIWAY and makes it very easy to find an open frame
   quickly.  It also gives control to the KIWAY as to frame hierarchical
   relationships.

*) Change single_top to use the KIWAY for loading a KIFACE and instantiating
   the single KIWAY_PLAYER, see bullet immediately above.

*) Add KIWAY::OnKiwayEnd() and call it from PGM_BASE at program termination, this
   gives the KIFACEs a chance to save their final configuration dope to disk.

*) Add dedicated FRAME_T's for the modal frames, so m_Ident can be tested and
   these modal frames are distinctly different than their non-modal equivalents.
   KIWAY_PLAYER::IsModal() is !not! a valid test during the wxFrame's constructor,
   so this is another important reason for having a dedicated FRAME_T for each
   modal wxFrame.

On balance, more lines were deleted than were added to achieve all this.

Dick Hollenbeck b427aa49c1 single_top w/o kiface whines and exits gracefully. 2014-04-24 13:31:11 -05:00
Dick Hollenbeck 0d6560a218 *) Switch kicad.exe to using KIFACE modules for all major top level windows.
Eeschema, Pcbnew, and Cvpcb all run under the same process now,
    FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME!

*)  Added KIWAY::PlayerCreate(), PlayerClose(), and PlayersClose().

*)  Factored FRAME_T into <frame_type.h> from ID_DRAWFRAME_TYPE.

*)  Found that the following command line is helpful for collecting all the *.kiface
    files into the <build>/kicad/ directory so that kicad can find them.

      $ cp `find . -name '*.kiface'` kicad/

    Maybe somebody will want to rework how the CMake files are organized so all
    the binaries can go into the same place.  See python-a-mingw-us.

*)  This might fix the problem on the Mac where child process windows were not
    coming to the front.  See ->Raise() in kicad/mainframe.cpp.

*)  You can set USE_KIFACE to 0 in kicad/mainframe.cpp to chain load child exes
    instead of using the KIFACE modules directly, i.e. revert.

Dick Hollenbeck 2c67c3ff80 * KIWAY Milestone A): Make major modules into DLL/DSOs.
!   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.

Dick Hollenbeck 2aa27122b0 Eliminate many assumptions in Pcbnew's library manager, pertaining to locality of libraries and
their type, by using the more abstract PLUGIN::Footprint*() functions.

This is an intermediate phase only, other changes will be necessary as library table support comes in.
Encapsulate usage of library path searching, since that will go away as library table support comes in.
Add FOOTPRINT_EDIT_FRAME::{get,set}LibPath() and FOOTPRINT_EDIT_FRAME::{get,set}LibNickName() functions
to provide this encapsulation.

  EDA_BASE_FRAME::CopyVersionInfoToClipboard().
* Add -Wno-narrowing to GCC flags to stop GCC 4.7 from complaining about
  a conversion from int to unsigned in the Boost polygon library.
* Add INPUT_STREAM_READER to richio.cpp to allow using any object derived
  from wxInputStream as a LINE_READER (needs to be validated).

* EDA_DRAW_FRAME completely encapsulated except for DrawFrame member.
* Moved members specific to Pcbnew from EDA_DRAW_FRAME to PCB_BASE_FRAME
  or PCB_EDIT_FRAME as appropriate.
* Replace EDA_TOOLBAR with wxAuiToolBar as EDA_TOOL bar provided no
  additional functionality and made code less readable.
* Remove EDA_TOOLBAR class definition from wxstruct.h and delete file
  wineda_toolbar.cpp.
* Rename tool bar members to something more descriptive since the
  horizontal and vertical references wont mean anything once the
  tool bars are movable.
* Lots of dead code removal.
