* Split and rewrite the preview window and canvas.
* Create a new class for handling the board information.
* Adds new render targets: openGL, legacy, and ray tracing.
* Render targets take full advantage of the new 3D plugins system and 3D cache
for a fast 3D model loading.
* Faster board loading.
* New OpenGL render is faster than the old one.
* New ray tracing render target with a post processing shader.
* Use of new 3D plugins (WRL, X3D, STEP and IGES) and 3D model caching.
* Preview of 3D model while browsing the file name.
* 3D preview of the footprint while adding / align 3D shapes.
* Render of 3D models according to attributes: Normal, Normal+Insert, Virtual.
* Pivot rotation centered in one point over the PCB board.
* Shortcuts keys improved for XYZ orientation..
* Animated camera.
* Switched hashtables.h over to std::undordered_map from boost version.
* Added new macros DECL_VEC_FOR_SWIG() and DECL_MAP_FOR_SWIG() in macros.h.
These along with future DECL_HASH_FOR_SWIG() unify the declaration to swig
and C++ so that the resultant type name is common in both languages, and
the types AGREE.
* Fixed swigging of NETINFO_ITEM and NETINFO_LIST via magic.
* Newly exposed (python wrapped) are: D_PADS, TRACKS (was TRACK_PTRS),
NETNAME_MAP, NETCODE_MAP, wxString (without constructor purposely, read
comment in wx.i), MARKERS, ZONE_CONTAINERS, NETCLASSPTR, KICAD_T types.
* std::vector<SOMETHING*> tends to end up named SOMETHINGS in C++ and python.
Having the name consistent between like types is helpful, and between
languages. std::map<> ends up as SOMETHING_MAP.
* NETINFO_LIST::m_netNames and NETINFO_LIST::m_netCodes are now std::map
instead of hashtables, because swig does not yet support std::unordered_map.
* You can now get to any netclass or net info. NETNAMES_MAP and NETCODES_MAP
are traversable basically the same as a python dictionary using a python
string (not wsString) as the key! The wxString typemap converts python
string to wxString before the lookup happens. Iteration also works.
* 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.
* Remove tasks that are not going to be completed by FOSDEM 2017 release
(hopefully) announcement.
* Update item task lists to reflects changes discussed at CERN meeting.
* Update item status to reflect the current state of the tasks.
* Add a few new changes that are slated for release.
* Revise the generic road map by deleting complete items and adding new items
discussed at CERN meeting.
* Remove unused definition from config.h.cmake.
It is especially true in some Window Managers like KDE, but can be true in any WM, when initializations are made by TransferDataToWindow() method, called by the default wxInitDialogEvent handler.
* The FindSWIG.cmake shipped with CMake 3.0 does not yet look for the
"cmake3.0" binary, this was added shortly after the 3.0 release.
* This file can be removed once the minimum CMake version is 3.1 or greater.
This revised nginx.conf holds the cache for one week, truly. For some reason there are
two tuning knobs required to make one adjustment (cache duration). Without this fix the
cache was only held for 10 minutes. The most important change is the "inactive=1w" which
as I implied, is the *second* reference to one week. Sorry for this oversight.
Nginx can be run on something as simple as a raspberry PI. I run it on a network file
server attached to my desktop via copper ethernet. By caching the footprint libraries
from github, I can load all github libraries in about 2.5 seconds, making github the
fastest plugin of any kind.
* Rename the "net", "lastNet" and "nextNet" variables to "item", "lastItem"
and "nextItem", respectively, because these refer to netlist items, not
nets.
* This adds a suffix "Idx" to the indexes into the list, and introduces local
copies of the pointers to the objects we are looking at, in order to have a
shorter way of addressing them.
* The ERC code depends on netlist items to be sorted by net code, so verify
that in debug builds. While this condition is stricter than necessary, it
should still hold with the current code, and provide a good canary if a
change to the sorting code might break ERC.
