*) 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.
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,
* 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.
* Create a generic yes/no/cancel dialog from DIALOG_EXIT.
* Make DIALOG_EXIT return wxID_YES instead of wxID_OK so it is consistent
with the standard message dialogs.
* Add missing license to confirm.h and confirm.cpp.
* Change Eeschema message dialog when loading a schematic if the current
schematic is modified to be more consistent with the exit dialog.
* 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
commit.
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.
* Move the component library save file creation and write error dialogs
into the appropriate frame object.
* Change the save component library and document definitions take an
OUTPUTFORMATTER object instead of a file name.
* Change the component alias save document definition function to take
an OUTPUTFORMATTER object instead of a file handle.
* Create command event handler for orienting schematic items and block.
* Remove redundant orient item and block command handler code and IDs.
* Remove redundant cancel current command event table entry.
* Remove unnecessary schematic bitmap object virtual functions.
* Set path when saving schematic sheet files to prevent assertion in
updated path and file write permission test function.
* Restore directory and file name write permission test function to it's
previous behavior to prevent unexpected save results.
* Add an assertion to verify the path is not empty to directory and file
write permission test function.
* Improve documentation for path and file write permission test function.
* Fix Doxygen link warnings.
* Grammar and spelling fixes in Eeschema, CvPcb, and Pcbnew path and
library dialog tool tips.
* Translate the French file name subrill.cpp to highlight.cpp.
* Lots of coding style policy fixes.
* Factor test for auto save file into base frame class.
* Added auto save feature to Eeschema for saving schematics, addresses
launchpad question 173631.
* Add auto save interval control to Eeschema options dialog.
* Fix problem with subsequent auto saves in last commit.
* Move the hierarchical label connected test into the NETLIST_OBJECT class.
* ERC pin type strings can now be translated.
* Remove unused EDA_DRAW_PANEL attribute from all ERC test functions.
* Add get marker count method to SCH_SCREENS object.
* Redundant header removal.
* Lots of coding style policy fixes.
* Add general purpose user write permission test function to base
window class.
* Check user write permissions before saving project, schematic and
library files.
* Remove displaying file dialog every time the project file is saved.
* Display absolute paths for non-root sheet file in title bar.
* Remove redundant command table entry from schematic editor.
* Remove unused variables to fix GCC 4.6 warnings.
* The usual Doxygen comment and coding style policy fixes.
* Encapsulate file name member of base screen object.
* Encapsulate associated screen member of schematic sheet object.
* Create add screen method to schematic sheet object to simplify setting
the associated screen.
* Move the change file name code in the schematic sheet object to the edit
sheet method in the schematic editor frame object to eliminate message
dialogs.
* Improve reference counting in schematic screen object.
* Add helper type definitions for changing schematic object storage to C++
containers.
