Here are some source code maintenance tasks that need to be done, and maybe some
|
|
folks will see these items and volunteer to do them.

*** improved xpm handling
|
|
We should:
|
|
1) make a library out of ALL the xpm files, and
|
|
2) develop a simple header file which declares ALL of them using conventional C/C++:
|
|
extern char * somename2_xpm[];
|
|
extern char * somename3_xpm[];
|
|
:
|
|
:
|
|
This way the linker can bundle in the xpms that it has seen referenced. I don't
|
|
think seeing the extern declaration is cause to do this, it must actually be
|
|
referenced. I think this would be an easier way to manage xpms.
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** @todo: grep for @todo and finish off those tasks, scattered throughout the source.
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** use BOARD_ITEM::MenuIcon() in the onrightclick.cpp
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Use DOXYGEN compatible comments on member functions. As configured,
|
|
Doxygen gives priority to comments in header files over *.cpp files.
|
|
Review the generated docs and start to go through the source and make the
|
|
generated doxygen docs readable and clear using the JavaDoc style comments,
|
|
mostly in the header files. The error and warning output of the doxygen
|
|
compiler can help with this too.
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Translate comments that are in French to English so there can be a broader
|
|
understanding by new developers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Add tooltip text to all non-obvious controls in every dialog window.
|
|
Need to do this using DialogBlocks.

wxString DateAndTime()
|

It seems the above function should be using a more user friendly "local time",
|
|
not gmtime.

|
1) Remove the requirement to route tracks for situations where a zone is.
|
|
2) Support connections from zones to vias, and zones to tracks, and zones to pads.
|
|
|
|
rework zones so they are modifiable and so that the user does not
|
|
need to enter tracks for thru hole pads or vias which connect to a zone.
|
|
I propose a two step solution:
|
|
1) interim enhancement: make zone edges retained in BRD file and make the
|
|
edges editable. (DONE)
|
|
2) final solution: get rid of requirement for tracks buried within a zone.
|
|
Review the GEDA source code and other sources to gather ideas before doing 2).

When picking new board from the menu, when an existing board is already
|
|
in memory, the number of layers in the new board is not set to the default
|
|
but rather to the number of layers in the previously loaded board, and with
|
|
the default layer names, rather than the layer names of the previously
|
|
loaded board. I think the number of layers should be reduced to the
|
|
default and the default layer names should be used.
