Ian McInerney c458b50fd9 Ensure the environment variables are synchronized between KiCad and Python
Before this, the environment variables inside Python wouldn't reflect
the updates to them made after the interpreter was started in Pcbnew.
This will call into Python and set the variables when they are changed,
since Python can't synchronize itself when running in an embedded
interpreter.

Jon Evans a5a19076fd Move PROJECT storage to SETTINGS_MANAGER 2020-07-02 22:08:54 -04:00
Jon Evans e59a3d981e Implement a new settings framework across all of KiCad
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.

jean-pierre charras 4de6ed6206 Fix issues created by Adds Save As... to the Kicad manger.
Mainly replacing std::string by wxString to manage filenames.
On Windows, a sdt::string cannot manage a filename, unless using
in many places TO_UTF8 and FROM_UTF8.
So the best way is to use a wxString for filenames and error messages.

Seth Hillbrand 98124e68c7 Update exit strategy to match UI guidelines
In singletop mode, all frames show the "Quit" option in the file menu
and will quit on Ctrl-Q.  When launched from the main KiCad interface,
sub-programs show the "Close" option instead and will close with Ctrl-W.
In this mode, Ctrl-Q will instruct the main program to exit.

Jeff Young 77f15eeeaf Support synchronous messaging over KIWAY EXPRESS.
This allows us to make the various netlist and pcb update routines
more atomic and less reliant on carefully sequenced asynchronous

This is also a prelude to adding support for footprint testing

Dick Hollenbeck 7311f07eaf SWIG Improvements
*) Extend SWIG support deeper into the BOARD class.
*) Move swig *.i files into a directory identified for SWIG, in preparation
   for a parallel universe involving Phoenix's SIP.
*) Move swig files which will be common to both eeschema and pcbnew into
   common/swig.
*) Sketch out a "common" python module, and plan on dovetailing that into a
   libkicad_shared.{dll,so}
*) Add common/swig/ki_exceptions.i and define a macro HANDLE_EXCEPTIONS()
   which is to be applied to any function which needs C++ to python
   exception translation.
*) Move the test for SWIG tool into top level CMakeLists.txt file for use
   in all python modules beyond pcbnew, i.e. eeschema and common.
*) Add SWIG_MODULE_pcbnew_EXTRA_DEPS which generates a better Makefile, one
   which rebuilds the swig generated *.cxx file when one of its dependencies
   change.
*) Re-architect the board.i file so that it can be split into multiple *.i
   files easily.
*) Make some KIWAY from python progress, in preparation for Modular KiCad
   phase III.

Simon Richter dca358076e Make sure KIFACE_GETTER linkage is consistent
This makes sure that the declaration is always the same within a single
module, so all users have the same idea of whether the symbol is imported.

In all dynamically linked objects, all users should be aware that the
symbol is imported, while in the statically linked bitmap2component
program, no import/export decorations should be used.

jean-pierre charras 99d18faca9 Change the way main editor frames are managed by Kicad: before this change, they had the Kicad manager frame as parent frame, and it creates a few issues:
- When the Kicad manager is iconized, all other child frames are iconized (normal wxWidgets behavior)
- For viewer frames in modal mode, there is a more annoying issue: they have the wxFLOAT_ON_PARENT frame style on unix, and wxSTAY_ON_TOP on Windows.
wxFLOAT_ON_PARENT frame style is incorrect (although on most WM it works) because the parent frame (Kicad manager Frame) is not the caller. It is usually a main editor frame.
It does not work on Windows (wx STAY_ON_TOP is used).
* Now each editor frame has a null parent.
Therefore iconizing the Kicad manager frame does not iconize other frames.
* Viewer frames have null parent in normal mode and the caller parent in modal mode (therefore wxFLOAT_ON_PARENT frame style is always and correctly used)
* References to opened/closed main frames are no more managed by the (complicated) kicad code. Instead of, a non critical and more easy to understand code just uses FindWindowByName to know if a main window exists or not.

These changes do not fix all issues about Kicad frames brought to the foreground or the background, but it fixes a few issues, and AFAIK do not add other issues.

Dick Hollenbeck 7e483f69bd Modular KiCad Blueprint Milestone B), major portions:
*) When kicad.exe closes a project, close any open KIFACEs so that they cannot
     get disassociated from their true PROJECT.
  *) Allow loading eeschema library editor from kicad.exe
  *) Allow loading pcbnew library editor from kicad.exe
  *) Rename LIB_COMPONENT to LIB_PART.
  *) Add class PART_LIBS, and PART_LIB.
  *) Make PART_LIBS non-global, i.e. PROJECT specific.
  *) Implement "data on demand" for PART_LIBS
  *) Implement "data on demand" for schematic SEARCH_STACK.
  *) Use RSTRINGs to retain eeschema editor's notion of last library and part being edited.
  *) Get rid of library search on every SCH_COMPONENT::Draw() call, instead use
     a weak pointer.
  *) 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,
     and save them in the .eeschema config file, not in the project file.
  *) 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.

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 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.
2014-04-19 13:47:20 -05:00
Dick Hollenbeck 5f65d0da93 *) Add KIFACE_I::StartFlags() and IsSingle() so a KIFACE implementation can know
if it is running under single_top.cpp or under a project manager.

*)  Test Kiface().IsSingle() when adding menus, some operations are not permitted
    when running under a project manager and the KIWAY_PLAYER is pegged to a
    specific project.

*)  Implemented KIWAY::KiFACE() so it loads *.kiface files.  They still have to be
    in the same directory as the main *.exe launcher, so this presents some difficulty
    when the binaries are not yet installed but rather the *.kiface files are still
    in their original build directories.  For today, I simply copied _pcbnew.kiface
    to build/kicad/.

*)  Add a test case to kicad/mainframe.cpp just to get an early peek at loading
    _pcbnew.kiface under the C++ project manager.  Got that working for one
    specific invocation just for proof of concept.  Surprise, it works.

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.
