This plugin mechanism is enabled only if option -DKICAD_SCRIPTING_ACTION_MENU=ON (it is off by default)
It imply -DKICAD_SCRIPTING=0N
This is currently for testing purposes only for developers, not yet for users.
std::make_unique is a very useful part of the new C++ smart pointers
ecosystem, as it allows one to dispense entirely with "new" and also
provides exception safety in some cases when creating temporary
variables.
It also allows more concise code by avoiding repetition of the type:
std::make_unique<TYPE>( args );
vs
std::unique_ptr<TYPE>( new TYPE( args ) );
This commit adds a "polyfill" to provide std::make_unique when C++11 is
enabled. The implementation is that submitted to the C++ committee, and
is essentially how it is done in GCC for C++14.
The intention is to allow KiCad to use this implementation when using
C++11 and when C++14 or greater is a requirement, to remove this code
and use the compiler implementation.
There is nothing PCB-frame-specific about this function,
it is equally applicable to an frame, for example
PCB_EDIT_FRAME and CVPCB_MAINFRAME, which have EDA_BASE_FRAME
as the nearest common ancestor, except KIWAY_PLAYER,
which is not really concerned with this kind of UI event method.
When creating a copy of CONTEXT_MENU, always a CONTEXT_MENU instance was
constructed, whereas an inherited type should be used. Solved with
CONTEXT_MENU::create() that has to be overridden in inheriting classes.
Event & update handlers are now virtual functions, instead of setting
the handlers with Set{Event,Update}Handler().
The problem with simple deleting VIEW_ITEM_DATA upon VIEW_ITEM removal was
caused by the default copy constructors that copied pointers.
Once a copy of an item was destroyed, the VIEW_ITEM_DATA has been
destroyed, effectively invalidating m_viewPrivData for the other item.
Some faults could result in a crash, as they were not properly
handled. Now the rendering loop is wrapped with try..catch block
which will revert to Cairo in case of an error and display an
error message.

Add a hack so that the pad properties base dialog constructor can pass in the dependency. Since the derived dialog's constructor takes the parent by this exact type, the static cast is safe.
- Finalize transition to BOARD_COMMIT (removed all remaining uses of PICKED_ITEMS_LIST) and implicit view/ratsnest updates
- Simplified SELECTION class, it now can be directly added to a VIEW
- Removed unnecesary casts and templates
- Introduced C++11 features (range based for, lambdas) where they improve code readability
- Added non-undoable COMMITs, which can be used to propagate change notifications to interested listeners (e.g. ratsnest/view)
Rename FPID to LIB_ID as is now used as a generic library identifier and
is no longer specific to footprints.
Remove all mention of footprint from the new LIB_ID doxygen comments and
code.
Rename files fpid.h and fpid.cpp to lib_id.h and lib_id.cpp.
Rename fp_lib_table.keywords file to lib_table.keywords and adjust CMake
build dependencies accordingly.
Update all source files effected by the code and file name changes.
Update .gitignore for file name changes.
Derive LIB_TABLE_ROW from boost::noncopyable for use in boost pointer
containers.
Use std::unique_ptr to manage PROPERTIES pointer.
Add clone support for boost pointer containers.
Split common library table code out from FP_LIB_TABLE into base LIB_TABLE
object. The FP_LIB_TABLE object only contains the code specific to
footprint library tables.
Use boost::vector_ptr for storing library table row objects.
Fix move up and down bugs in footprint library table edit dialog.
Without this include the HAVE_STRTOKR define won't be available to
the preprocessor and the strtok_r function will be declared
unconditionally and eventually clash with the declaration from the
system provided equivalent.
Factor out ROW object from FP_LIB_TABLE so it can be reused to create a
symbol library table row object.
Create base LIB_TABLE_ROW object from ROW object common code.
Derived FP_LIB_TABLE_ROW object from LIB_TABLE_ROW to provide support for
footprint library table rows.
Update all instances of FP_LIB_TABLE::ROW with FP_LIB_TABLE_ROW.
Purge wxT() macros from modified files where possible.
At one point, all of the footprints provided by the KiCad footprint
libraries were merged into a single pdf file. The link to open this
file was provided on the toolbar. Since the footprint libraries have
been split out into individual repositories, this file is no longer
created so the toolbar button and the underlying code to open this
file were removed.
Improve a few CvPcb menu strings.
Fixes lp:702785

*) 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.
This option is not yet activated because the net attributes are not yet fully fixed by Ucamco, in Gerber file format specifications.
(To activate it, see dialog_plot.cpp, line 43)
* When Pcbnew is launched in the stand alone mode with no board file command
line option, the project path is set to the current working directory. The
user may not have write access to the current working directory which would
cause the auto save to generate an error. If the user does not have write
access to the current working directory, set the path to a platform specific
temporary path that the user has write permission.
* When Pcbnew is launched in the stand alone mode with no board file command
line option, the default BOARD object has no file name. Set the file name
to "noname.kicad_pcb" to fix incorrect auto save file name and set the path
to the user's platform specific document folder.
* Delete orphaned auto save files when closing without saving due to broken
auto save file generation logic which prepended the file name with "$" rather
than "_autosave-".
* Fixes: lp:1596382
* 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.
* 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.
