Allows placing parts from an external database that reference symbols from another loaded library.
Includes:
- nanodbc wrapper
- database schematic library plugin
- basic tests

This change removes the incorrect assumption that symbol pin numbers are
integers and are the same as indexes in the vector storing the symbol
pins.
"~" is now used to denote a floating sim model pin.
There is no technical reason for this restriction for non-power symbols, so let's remove it.
This will allow more flexibility and compatibility with other tools.

wxWidgets 3.1 has deprecated wxPATH_NORM_ALL when normalizing file
paths when calling wxFileName::Normalize(). This change keeps the
existing behavior except in places where our own internal
ExpandEnvVarSubstitutions() to expand environment variables.
When changing units, we might not have the original pins
available to set the Alt assignments. Instead, we search
by number and skip the pin if it doesn't exist in the
new unit
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/12218
Unconnected items and schematic partity violations are also now
represented by markers, so the ERC/DRC window itself needs to do
the deep-delete.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/12182
Template instantiations need to follow the template definitions or you
don't get all of the template members, just the ones called from within
the file
Unfortunately, Windows headers define a lot of macros for common words,
so we had to rename some enums to not collide.
We also fix some of the many bugs related to the new simulation
architecture and the Spice Model Editor dialog.
- Tab-switching,
- Automatic expansion of categories on tab-switch,
- Various minor simulation improvements,
- Various new simulation-related bugfixes.
Don't serialize parameters in certain models for default values. Infer
models from Value field for some kinds of models. Resolve synonyms when
loading models from Spice libraries.
Rewrite the spice exporter to work with the new simulation model
architecture and data model, with many bugfixes related to the latter
two along the way.
Implement parsing and loading Spice libraries into KiCad. This is done
without any involvement of Ngspice -- we create our own in-tree parser
using PEGTL -- because Ngspice doesn't offer any intermediate output we
could plug ourselves into. We don't parse everything -- just the library
content, so this won't be that much effort.
We implement some basic Spice code preview to give the user a hint what
Spice code eir model will correspond to.
Implemented serialization and deserialization of models in symbol fields
through the SIM_VALUE class. We don't carry the Spice legacy of
case-insensitive suffixes, instead we conform to the SI standard (i.e. M
is Mega, not milli, P is peta, p is pico).
Parameter grid value validation is implemented by simply not allowing
any characters that will make the value invalid (instead of highlighting
the field in a red color). This will likely be changed at some point in
the future.
This commit adds parameter display functionality, via a wxPropertyGrid
widget, to the Sim Model Editor. To faciliate that, a SIM_VALUE class is
created to serialize, deserialize, and validate numeric values in the
new parameter grid.
SPICE_MODEL is renamed to SIM_MODEL and split into several subclasses
that correspond to different model kinds.
With that also begin reworking the internal structure of the simulation
model storage. Some models have parameter information extracted from
Ngspice, which was specially patched to faciliate that. The model is
stored and managed by the SPICE_MODEL class (later will be renamed to
SIM_MODEL).
Converts dialog_image_editor to panel_image_editor. Embeds this panel in
a new properties dialog for the schematic and PCB editors that allows
editing position, layer, locked status, etc. like other items.
ADDED: When pin length is changed now, the pin position is adjusted
according to its orientation such that the connection point for wires
moves instead of the other side of the stem base. For pins coming out of
component boxes, etc. this keeps them attached to the box while the
length is changed.
Previous the cross-probing options were mixed between sending and
receiving cross-probe events. This clarifies so that all of the pcbnew
cross-probe options deal with whether the cross-probe is seen in pcbnew
and all of the eeschema options deal with seeing the event in eeschema.
Also updates the wording in the options panels to be the same where
possible and adds tooltips
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/11454
Also adjusts metrics to better match stroke font.
Also removes text-halo highlighting as it's too expensive to re-render
when the zoom changes.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/11460
Pin names like "+V" were incorrectly parsed as doubles leading to broken
comparisons. These caused heap overflows when sorting pin tables
This corrects the comparison so that numeric sorts are only performed
when there is an actual number in the symbol segment. Also adds unit
tests for common error cases
CHANGED: The text variable ${SHEETNAME} now always represents the name of the
sheet when used anywhere in the schematic editor, including the title block
ADDED: A new text variable ${SHEETPATH} which is replaced with the path to the
current sheet - e.g. "/Sheet 1/Sheet 2".
To ensure backward compatibility, the default drawing sheet now uses
${SHEETPATH}. Custom drawing sheets will need to be manually edited.
Prior to fixing the schematic file change churn do to instance data
changing to the last selected sheet instance, the symbol instance data
was set rather than empty. This change allows for users to set the
default instance data which is used for every new instance of the
schematic.
ADDED: Default schematic symbol instance data (unit and reference, value,
and footprint fields) can be set to be used as the default settings
for all new instances of the schematic.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/11113
Better to have both the single-pin error message and the non-driven
error message when an input pin is not connected than miss error
messages when the pin is connected to a blank net
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/10430
(cherry picked from commit e740db61f5)
Make "don't stroke" an explicit property in the GUI.
Silently enforce line width to >= 0 when stroking.
Make layouts between dialogs more consistent.
Interpret unspecified fill colour as layer colour.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/11279
SIMULATOR has now an Attach() method, which should be called
with proper SIMULATION_MODEL that should be simulated, before calling Run()
Concrete class of SIMULATION_MODEL for ngspice is NGSPICE_CIRCUIT_MODEL,
renamed from NETLIST_EXPORTER_PSPICE_SIM. DIALOG_SIM_SETTINGS relies
on above mentioned object, so it was added as an argument of the constructor.
Do not use the symbol field string to populate the value and footprint
grid cells. The field strings may be empty because the symbol has not
been instantiated yet by entering a sheet. This fix makes an incorrect
assumption that the first instance value and footprint data in the symbol
is the same for all instances.
Note: this fix is incomplete because the value and footprint fields are
can now be different between sheet instances. The entire field
table editor design will need to be rethought because the current
grouping doesn't allow different value and footprint instance
changes.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/11194
Also make sure that value field is updated from name changes when the
symbol is a power symbol (even if it's from the schematic instead of
the library).
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/11093
Double-calls are no longer needed when using settings. They can
interfere depending on how the system executes the commands.
Removing keeps the last used plugin as the default, rather than the last
selected

Adding a page in the ctor can generate events that change the default
page. Instead, we set the default after all pages have been added,
avoiding the reset

(cherry picked from commit 5314ba6440)
It hasn't worked since we rejiggered the default grid selection mode
anyway, and for some reason it eats <esc> key events after the dialog
has been resized.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/11015
Removes the ability to hide symbol units in file formats. This was
mostly the case for a while but there remained corner cases where we
left a default/hidden option
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/10888
ADDED: with cmake KICAD_MACOSX_APP_BUNDLE option the user can disable
the macOS app bundle creation when compiling on macOS. This permit to
use/install KiCad like any other *nix platform (/usr/bin, /usr/share,
ecc.). By default, cmake build the app bundle.
Also fixes some plot bugs with arcs.
Also moves polygonization of arcs (when required) in plotting code
from 5 degrees to calculated based on ARC_HIGH_DEF.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5017
Note:
- wxYield does not work here, indicating the need for locking
- wxYieldIfNeeded does not work, possibly for the same reason as wxYield
- Both Layout() and m_fieldGrid->Layout() need to be called even though
the first should call the second.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5690
On GTK, some configurations will trigger a column resize, which will
close the current editor. This blocks the column resize while the
editor is open, unless the resize continues, which indicates dragging of
the window edge
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5690
When the grid editor is shown, we also want to ensure that the grid gets
resized to account for the new editor. Queuing the event will ensure
that happens after the editor is emplaced in the grid
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/5690
(cherry picked from commit fddfce4fb1)
On GTK, the full editor needs to be shown and, for some systems, the
editor will not show correctly. By yielding we should allow the time to
recalculate sizes for the editor in the grid

Our undo/redo list is tied to the screen that gets cleared when we
reload the file after renaming. We need to clear the Undo list at this
point to prevent possible crashes when moving too far back in the stack

Especially using a translated name breaks kicad config and files because
in non English languages both translated and not translated names were used in code.
Exporting the Bill of Materials uses the netlist exporter. Both of
these routines were stripping the extension, leading to projects like
"test.project.kicad_pro" having the project name stripped. We separate
the BOM netlist export from generic plugin netlist export to allow the
correct behavior when exporting netlists and generating BOMs
