To use multiple working threads. This entailed adding KiCad typedefs:
*) Add typedefs for MUTEX and MUTLOCK which mask the actual choices for the project.
*) Add FOOTPRINT_LIST::DisplayErrors( wxWindow* ) which is a single strategy for
showing aggregated load errors. Although what's there is only scaffolding
and needs a volunteer who knows HTML pretty well.
*) Ensure all callers of ReadFootprintFiles() use the new DisplayErrors() function.
*) Push utf8.cpp and utf8.h into common library for open use.
* Use FPID instead of wxString in MODULE object.
* Use FPID instead of wxString when loading and saving files.
* Use FPID in COMPONENT object.
* Add wxString helper functions and comparison operators to FPID.
* Add fp_lib token to pcb and netlist file formats.
* Add code to load and save FPIDs to pcb file format.
* Fix segfault when deleting invalid footprint library tables in Pcbnew
in non footprint library table build.
* Fix bug when counting the number of mod files in
EDA_APP::SetFootprintLibTablePath();
* Fix both legacy and s-expression netlist readers when footprints are
assigned in the netlist.
* Add some helper functions to NETLIST for detecting when footprints are set
or not set and when they have been changed while loading the .cmp file.
* Rename a few functions to improve their readability.
* Create separate NETLIST object to hold contents of netlist files.
* Read entire netlist and footprint link files before making applying
changes to board.
* Add BOARD::ReplaceNetlist() function to eliminate the calls between the
NETLIST_READER, PCB_EDIT_FRAME, and BOARD objects.
* Change placement of new components below the center of the current board
or in the center of the page if the BOARD is empty.
* Add dry run option to netlist dialog to print changes to message control
without making changes.
* Add button to netlist dialog to allow saving contents of message control
to a file.
* Eliminate the need to compile netlist_reader_*.cpp in both CvPcb and Pcbnew.
* Add netlist_reader_*.cpp to the pcbcommon library.
* Remove redundant load component link file code from CvPcb.
* Modify CvPcb new to work with the new NETLIST_READER object.
* Add compare() function and < and == operators to FPID object.
* Add REPORTER class to hide an underlying string writing implementation for
use in low level objects. Thank you Dick for the idea.
* Lots of minor coding policy, Doxygen comment, and missing license fixes.
fix a compil warning.
CvPcb: fix regressions :
Shows now a void field instead of the dummy footprint name $nonane (whenthere is no footprint selected in netlist).
The active footprint selection changes only if a new component is selected from the component file,
and does not change just when the next component is automatically selected, after a footprint selection.
Speed up delete association and auto associe.
* symbol in sch library have only single footprint filter,
* footprint filter have no wildcards,
* according footprint exists in pcb lib.
This could remove need in long equ files for lots of ICs.
* Correct all user strings and comments for the correct capitalization of
application names according to JP. They are KiCad, Pcbnew, CvPcb,
Eeschema, and GerbView.
* Add a note the the user interface policy about the correct capitalization.
* All header files used to create the PCB common library now compile as
stand alone code. This prevents the need to define them in a specific
order to make source code compile properly. It should also now be
possible to relocate the source code to build the common PCB library
to a separate folder.
* Add USE_IMAGES_IN_MENUS definition to override the default platform
behavior for adding images to menu items.
* Update COMPILING.txt to document how to use USE_IMAGES_IN_MENUS.
* Fix Windows segfault when creating language selection submenu introduced
by new bitmap code in r3087.
* Changed per email from JP from CVPcb to CvPcb because I'm getting old and
blind and misread the email.
* Lot's of Doxygen comment and coding style policy fixes.
- first, matches are now filtered with component filters (as set in eeschema lib editor);
- second, if two or more matches exist, first one will be accepted in accordance to
alias file order set in project prefs, and then to order of lines in file.
For example you may have such configuration
.equ:
'100' 'CAP100'
'100' 'RES300'
C component have filter 'CAP*'
R component have filter 'RES*'
So R with value 100 (IEEE/ESKD short for 100 Ohm) will get 'RES300' footprint,
and C with value 100 (IEEE/ESKD short for 100 pF) will get 'CAP100'.
Also equ read routine is rewritten so it is now gracefully accept UTF-8 and spaces.
* Created separate SVN version header.
* Add true config.h for platform dependency checks.
* Add dependency check cmake module.
* Remove some leftover hand crafted make files.
* Remove non-cmake build instructions from COMPILING.txt.
* Fix split _() strings causing Visual C++ compiler error.
* Fix lots of compiler warnings.
* Change project file parameter container from wxArray to boost::vector_ptr.
* Removed lots of redundant header definitions.
* Fixed green_xpm redefinition in ercgreen.xpm.
* Remove some dead code and unnecessary class methods.
* ALL: More changes for wxDC based zooming.
* 3D_VIEWER: Wrap 3d_viewer.h to prevent redefinitions.
* CVPcb: Replace wxList with boost::ptr_vector and take advantage of boost::foreach.
* CVPcb: Fix automatic association bug.
* CVPcb: Rename some variables for clarity and some minor code clean ups.
* CVPcb: Fix GTK sizing issue in library and path dialog.
* EESchema: Remove left over sizer from last commit from library and path dialog.
* Add methods to read and write project file parameters using dynamically defined list.
* Remove all global variables defined in CVPcb code.
* Dynamically define project file settings so class member variables can be used.
* Separate reading and writing application settings from project file settings.
* Make application UI objects and dialogs respect system UI font.
* Remove non-standard widget colors from CVPcb dialogs.
* Changed CVPcb object link list implementation to use wxList.
* Changed project library and path dialog to make OK button save project file instead of confusing "Save Cfg" button.
* Eliminate some duplicate file wildcard and extension definitions.
* The usual code reformatting, commenting, and spelling fixes.
Added application method to fix searching for user libraries.
Fixed documentation search path bug.
Moved auto pan setting from draw frame to draw panel were it is defined.
Some minor device context drawing changes.
