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.
Although pcb_base_frame.cpp is in the pcbnew source tree, it is compiled
and included in pcbcommon.lib. Because pcb_base_frame has a dependency
on pcbnew_navlib, the latter also needs to be included in pcbcommon to
avoid linkage issues.
The superfluous references to pcbnew_navlib in the qa projects have been
removed.
Added full support for using a 3Dconnexion device in PCB_EDIT_FRAME. Commands are exported and can be assigned to 3D mouse buttons. Any limitations to the functionality are limitations of the installed 3Dconnexion driver for the device and OS.
Use build option KICAD_USE_3DCONNEXION (default = ON) to control whether the SpaceMouse support is compiled into the solution.
ADDED zone_connection constraint.
ADDED thermal_relief_gap and thermal_spoke_width constraints.
ADDED angle override for thermal relief spokes in Pad Properties.
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/4067
For some reason the .cxx file generated by SWIG cannot be linked if compiled
with debug options.
It creates a *lot* of not found symbols. So compile it with release mode (MSYS only)
This is a work-in-progress. It could use testing while I continue to fix
the remaining pieces.
There are some changes that will be needed for signing and notarization.
This currently relies on a Python tool I wrote (dyldstyle) to fixup
KiCad.app correctly. I would like any bundle fixing necessary to use a
built KiCad on macOS to live inside KiCad, rather than in
kicad-mac-builder or elsewhere. While I was experimenting, I found this
worked, however, and I would love to get extra hands testing.
I added a CMake argument, MACOS_EXTRA_BUNDLE_FIX_DIRS, for devs and
packagers who have extra directories they need to add to
fixup_bundle on KiCad.app.
There's an issue about differing behavior when KiCad is opened via
the command line or via Finder/launchd.
Now that footprint properties inherit custom fields from schematic
they are very useful.
Setting custom properties from python will also be handy in plugins
that need to somehow mark their own objects.
The BuildSteps folder now contains the CMake scripts that are
called during the build process as individual stages, while
the root CMakeModules directory contains the CMake files used
during the configuration phase.
