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.
Now footprints, after loaded by reading a netlist are grouped by sheets by the footprints spread function, and the grouping is better.
Rename 2 files. Fix minor issues. Clean code
This response file is not expanded under mingw3 2 (mingw/gcc bug?), and the list of include paths, found in this file, is not taken in account.
Now, under mingw32+msys, when not cross-compiling, the response file is disabled.
Cvpcb, Pcbnew: fix a list of libs which should be added only when cross-compiling:
Previously, they were always added, which creates an issue with mingw/msy/ gcc 2.8.
Now they are added only when cross-compiling (this issue was noticeable only with msys+mingw version 2.8)
*) Set environment variable KISYSMOD before loading FP_LIB_TABLE so that
FP_LIB_TABLE::ROW::SetFullURI() can do substitution up front.
*) De-emphasize the lib path in some of the footprint frames but keep it
so the footprint editor can export a current library to another.
You can even export a GITHUB library to a pretty library for local
installation.
*) Start the PLUGIN options editor.
*) Enhance cursor positioning in DIALOG_FP_LIB_TABLE.
* Use wxAuiManager perspective to save and load window settings which should
allow us to start using more advanced wxAui features like detachable tool
bars and windows.
* Remove sash size change events, event handler, and sash width clamping code
since it didn't work all that well anyway.
* Disable the close button on the footprint view pane.
* Update the footprint list box selection when iterating the list using the
tool bar arrow buttons.
* Merge code from modview.cpp into modview_frame.cpp and remove modview.cpp.
Write parser and formatter for options. Write dialog verification used before saving
FP_LIB_TABLEs, triggered from OK button in table editor.
Switch PROPERTY's value column to std::string from wxString.
Add event handler to fp lib table dialog for upcoming options dialog.
Enhance IO_MGR::GuessPluginTypeFromLibPath() to support the GITHUB plugin.
Build boost with -fPIC on Linux unconditionally, in preparation for
DLL/DSO build of kicad.
Add python script to test back to back reads of GITHUB plugin.
pcbnew.py + doxygen-xml files, and build .i files with docstrings,
those .i files are included back again to build a pcbnew.py with
extended documentation from C++, finally we take the final pcbnew.py
to build the doxygen-python documentation
