Make the VIEW* parameter const. Since PCB_TEXT does a null-check,
it's not very clear if this can ever be null (and if it is,
why don't the other VIEW_ITEMs check?), so don't make them
all references too at this time.
Also dereference a few pointers a bit earlier to make non-null
promises sooner rather than later.
Saves a mishmash of local HIDE/SHOW defs along with various literals.
Also provide a function that computes the scale at which a given
IU size becomes (notionally) a certain size on screen. While this
is a simple division, it's a bit opaque in terms of meaning.
Also it means the divide by zero case can be more universally
defended-against, which has traditionally been a bug opportunity.
Recommendation is to avoid using the year nomenclature as this
information is already encoded in the git repo. Avoids needing to
repeatly update.
Also updates AUTHORS.txt from current repo with contributor names
There was a gentle mish-mash of booleans, some with
true being left/right and some up/down, and some functions that
can flip in both axes (which is never actually done, and doesn't
really make geometric sense).
Replace all this with the FLIP_DIRECTION enum class, which makes
the intention completely unambiguous.
This also then allows a small scattering of simplifications,
because everything takes the same type and you don't have to
fiddle booleans to fit.
Added Distance(VECTOR2) function that returns a double. Removed
superfluous EuclideanNorm, GetLineLength, integer constructor for
EDA_ANGLE (this promotes to double in the CTOR), DistanceLinePoint and
HitTestPoints
Also extended the size for arc calculations that get distances to center
points to avoid overflow
Gerbview did not handle redefinition of variable like $3 = $3 / 2
This redefinition is sometimes found in Gerber files.
This is a long standing issue now fixed.
Fixes#7222https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/7222
Includes bug fix for catastrophic error in Add() for converting to
radians.
Includes bug fixes for the fact that the pcbnew test can't seem to
find the ANGLE_* objects (getting all 0's instead).
They don't define a KiCad string class, so the header file name was
somewhat misleading. But the fact that they didn't match definitely
made coding more difficult.
