=======================================
Refactor:
- Substitute the use of variadic templates with parameter packs.
- Use recently incorporated external library "fmt" to handle printf like formating.
- Extensive cleaning of pragmas and unnecessary forward declarations.
- Parameter packs and libfmt provide a much stronger type checking now, so
conversions that are by standard implicit as bool to int need an explicit static_cast
to avoid compilation warnings.
Extension:
- Include a notifier field, so that the originator of the message can be provided. E.g. Document#DocumentObject
- Include a new type of message called CriticalMessage, this message is intended to have
special behaviour in the future. Namely, it will be used to notify forward compatilibity issues.
It will be used to substitute the current signal/slot mechanism.
- Include two new types of messages for user notifications (Notification and TranslatedNotification). This messages
will be use to convey UI notifications intended for the user (such as non-intrusive message about the usage of a tool). There
are two versions to mark whether the string provided as a message is already translated or not. When using the console system for
notifications, these notifications may originate from the App or the Gui. In the former, it is generally the case that the strings
of messages are not (yet) translated (but they can be marked with QT_TRANSLATE_NOOP). In the latter, often the messages to be provided
are already translated.
Python support for CriticalMessage, Notification and TranslatedNofification, including shortcuts:
Crt = FreeCAD.Console.PrintCritical
Ntf = FreeCAD.Console.PrintNotification
Tnf = FreeCAD.Console.PrintTranslatedNotification
Support for creation of Rotation from matrices which is a combination of non uniform scale and a rotation
Fixes according to review
Scale -1 is Uniform, Not NoScaling
Fix hasScale() when negative scale
Removes the BUILD_QT5 flag and adds a new FREECAD_QT_VERSION option,
which can be set to either "Auto" (default), 5, or 6. Auto detects which
version of Qt is installed on the system and chooses it. If both version
are installed, Qt5 is used.
Note that this DOES NOT implement compiling against Qt6, it only adds
the necessary cMake infrastructure to begin work on the source code
changes that will be required.
This undoes most of the Xerces related part of the commits listed below.
The issue resolved here is that the Xerces include dir *is* set in the
CMakeLists.txt of src/Base, but it got removed from various App and Gui
dirs in src/Mod. If those now include a header from src/Base, which
itself includes xercesc, the build fails using Apple clang version 11.0.0
(clang-1100.0.33.17) on Mojave, configured using cmake 3.22.1, with
errors like the following:
