Libraries have been 100% case-sensitive for a while now; there is no longer a
need to keep this option around. This will change nothing except for any
stragglers still manually specifying this old option.
* Refactor edit one field dialogs to use validators and transfer data to and
from window functions.
* Add code to DIALOG_SHIM to handle validation and transfer functions since
the base dialog class code is not called by EndQuasiModal().
* Add custom validator class for filtering field text control characters.
* Add new field validator to edit schematic component dialog field text
control.
* Add new field validator to edit fields in library editor dialog field
text control.
* Make a few LIB_PART member functions const.
- 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.
* Add sheet number that is set by schematic file load order. This duplicates
the previous SCH_SHEET_PATH behavior.
* Uncouple SCH_REFERENCE and SCH_REFERENCE_LIST from SCH_SHEET_PATH.
* Add - operator to SCH_SHEET for comparison purposes. This duplicates the
behavior of SCH_SHEET_PATH::Cmp().
* Uncouple SCH_COMPONENT::GetRef() from SCH_SHEET_PATH and use SCH_SHEET
instead.
* Uncouple SCH_COMPONENT::GetUnitSelection() from SCH_SHEET_PATH and use
SCH_SHEET instead.
* Fix all calls to GetRef() and GetUnitSelection() to pass a pointer to the
appropriate SCH_SHEET object instead of an SCH_SHEET_PATH object.
Previously, only the lib named "power" was used (and therefore power parts defined in other libs not shown).
Now, all power parts can be loaded from any library.
Also, when loading power parts from the chose component dialog or the lib viewer, libs and parts are filtered: only power parts and libs containing power parts are listed.
Hotkeys: move a few global strings in the files where ther are actually used (and make them local.) and code cleaning.
Fix a few other minor issues.
Fix minor 3D viewer issues (includling change number of segments and its optimization to draw pad holes.)
Fix Bug #1439132 (track and via list on toolbar not always refresh after loading a board).
Remove useless tool in Modedit.
* move not shared files (sch_item_struct.*, sch_base_frame.h) to eeschema;
* move wxEeschemaStruct.h to eeschema and rename it schframe.h to be consistent with the other corresponding file name schframe.cpp;
* remove few not needed #include
Schematic component properties dialog: add 2 helper buttons to manage the chip name (name of the corresponding part in lib)
- a browse button to chose an other chip name
- a test button, to know if the part exists. If not existing, list the parts found when searching using a case insensitive comparison.
However to be compatible with old versions of Eeschema, when a search in library fails, a case insensitive search is made.
Therefore, this version should be compatible with sch files created by previous Eeschema versions compiled with KICAD_KEEPCASE = OFF
*) 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.
*) 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.
*) 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.
! 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.
dialogs which allow editing of component properties. The button
is active when the table row cursor is on the DATASHEET field only.
When active, and your datasheet is a URI, then your default
browser will be launced to show that datasheet if it can find it.
This incentivizes use of http:// links for datasheets.

field with a given name.
* Move the function to display the edit component in schematic dialog into
the SCH_EDIT_FRAME class.
* Doxygen and coding style policy fixes.
* Rename all member variables and methods that reference the cross hair
code in draw panel object from cursor to cross hair to eliminate confusion
between the two concepts.
* Rename cursor capture call backs in draw panel object to improve code
readability.

in EESchema.
* Comment out debugging macro in eeschema/template_field_names.cpp that was
preventing debug builds using wxWidgets 2.8.x.

the #else/#endif block ( old zoom code ).
* Removed the build option for USE_WX_ZOOM from CMakeList.txt and config.h.in.
* Removed all scaling code in base screen object.
* Fixed buffered paint and buffered client DC on Windows. Buffering works
properly on Linux and Windows.
* Modified kicad_device_context.h to automatically uses buffering on platforms
where double buffering is supported natively.
