Local net labels are preceded with sheetpath (even for single sheet
schematics it is '/') causing net name conflicts between schematics and
layout. It can be easily avoided by using exclusively global net
labels, at the cost having uglier schematics.
Extra labels to preserve eagle named nets feature are now placed at the
end of a wire segment instead of the middle of a wire. Prevents a label
being placed on crossing wires that are not connected by a junction
resulting in an incorrent netlist.
The previous implementation relied only on the project name. When it is
set, the imported library was named '-eagle-import'. Now it tries
the project name and then the file name, using 'noname-eagle-import'
as fallback.
The library name is stored in the plugin to avoid changing the library
name after the project name has been set.
Change the legacy schematic plugin to preserve illegal LIB_ID characters
when load schematics prior to version 4.
Check for illegal LIB_ID symbol names during project rescue. Rename and
rescue any symbols with illegal LIB_ID names.
Add static methods to LIB_ID object for testing for and fixing names
with illegal characters so there is uniform code for doing so.
Update the Eagle plugin symbol loader to fix symbol names using the new
LIB_ID fix illegal names method.
Fixes lp:1732236
https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1732236
Remove all symbol libraries from the project file after remapping to
prevent symbols that should be loaded from the cache being loaded from
a library further up the search order. Save the project file to clear
all of the libraries so they never get reloaded again.
Remove the symbol library management dialog and menu entries.
Rename the symbol library table dialog menu entry.
Remove all symbol libraries from default project file to prevent clashes
with the cache library.
Fix illegal symbol naming in Eagle plugin.
KiCad library symbol text objects cannot contain carriage returns and/or
line feeds which isn't the case with Eagle symbol libraries. Otherwise,
the library file will be corrupt when it is saved. Fixing this in the
legacy plugin would break the current file format so just replace them
with underscores. Ideally these text objects should be broken into
multiple text objects but the current plugin design doesn't support
this.
- Also makes the project and file import functions filetype dependent.
- The change from IO_MGR::KICAD to IO_MGR::KICAD_SEXP removes a conflict from a compile definition for KICAD when compiling kicad/import_project.cpp
