Update to pcb-4.0.0
======================================================================== Release notes for pcb-4.0.0 ======================================================================== Dear Users, It has been quite some time since the last snapshot of pcb was released in March 2014. Since then quite a lot of bugs were fixed and new features added, below this introduction a summary is given of the improvements and additions since the latest snapshot "pcb-20140316". This release represents over 480 commits (mostly bugfixes and code refactoring) and as such this summary clearly is not complete. This pcb release 4.0.0 has a significant change in the major version number. This is done to make a fresh start and to get away from the 1.99z version with YYYYMMDD snapshots. Kind regards, The pcb development team User experience improvements ---------------------------- - added the command-line option --save-metric-only. - added escaping of Attribute values. - added a translation of the Getting Started with PCB for pt_BR. - added translatable tooltips for toolbar buttons. - added "Report net length" to Menu -> Info in Gtk. - added a script for generating a key binding list. - added tooltips in the GTK HID UI. - the puller no longer crosses unplated holes. - solder/component outer layer names changed to top/bottom. - pcb now uses a tilde instead of a dash for backup filenames. - corrections in the user documentation. - the position "delta" display no longer forces the GTK HID window to grow. - write time in ASCII locale into exported files. - allow for up to 10000 dpi on png exporter output. Plugins ------- - added smartdisperse for dispersing elements better, contributed by Ben Jackson. - added relocate for relocating elements, contributed by Jean Richard. - added RenumberBlock() and RenumberBuffer(), contributed by DJ Delorie. - added teardrops(), contributed by DJ Delorie. Exporters --------- - added a netlister conforming to the IPC-D-356 standard, contributed by Jerome Marchand. - changed "as-shown" to "screen-layer-order" in the png and eps hids. Footprints library ------------------ - added a SC88A footprint. - added a LQFP80-10 footprint. - added QFN24_5 and TQFN24_5 footprints. - added a SOD523 footprint. - the SOT325 package had a wrong numbering. - renamed the SOT325 footprint to SOT353. - in the ALF footprint the drill holes were too tight. - an infinite loop in the SIL m4 macro was fixed. Developer experience improvements --------------------------------- - made a start with adding Doxygen developer documentation tags in the source files. A pcb.dox configuration file is available in the "doc/doxygen" directory so developers can build the documentation there by invoking "doxygen pcb.dox" from the CLI. This is not done by configuring with --enable-docs, which is solely reserved for the generation of User documentation. - added numerous fixes in the win32 target. Notes for early adapters ------------------------ In the git repository two tags have been added to allow for checking out of pcb-4.0.0 at the branch point (git checkout pcb-4.0.0-base) or at the release point (git checkout pcb-4.0.0-RELEASE). This is in line with tagging done in former snapshots. Changed dependencies -------------------- - autoconf 2.60 --> 2.69. - gettext 0.14 --> 0.19.3.
