[Bug 1771726] Re: After gsch2pcb, pcb fails to open the new pcb file
Hi guys- I just wanted to check in on this and see if it's been resolved. Dr. M- I think Bert's above comment (post #13) was in reference to the "gotcha" you mentioned in your earlier message (post #5). So, it may not be quite as out-of-the-blue as it seems. Can you please confirm the various versions of the tools that are creating the issues? I'm having trouble reproducing it myself, so, it may have already been fixed. The other thought that occurred to me was that the library footprint could have become corrupted. I think that you were testing some of the other bugfixes I was working on, so, if your footprint file happened to be corrupt, it might have been fixed by installing my bugfix work. Roland- Regarding the output in #10 above, where is that? The problematic output, I believe, was in the .pcb files produced by gsch2pcb. When I run it myself (gsch2pcb -V reports 1.6), I get an element in the resulting pcb file defined this way: Element(0x00 "DIODE_LAY-300.fp" "D1" "unknown" 0 0 0 100 0x00) ( Pin(0 150 50 30 "1" 0x101) Pin(300 150 50 30 "2" 0x01) ElementLine(0 150 100 150 10) ElementLine(200 150 300 150 10) ElementLine(100 150 200 100 10) ElementLine(200 100 200 200 10) ElementLine(200 200 100 150 10) ElementLine(100 100 100 200 10) Mark(0 150) ) I believe Dr. M was getting the following corrupted output: Element(0x00 "DIODE_LAY-300.fp" "D1" "unknown" 20 0 100 0x00) ( Pin(0 50 30 "1" 0x101) Pin(300.fp 50 30 "2" 0x01) ElementLine(010) ElementLine( 300.fp 10) ElementLine(10) ElementLine(10) ElementLine(10) ElementLine(10) Mark(0 ) ) I apologize for not being much help on this... I've been so buried in the pcb core that I haven't actually dug into footprint libraries, or the import process. Thanks for your help tracking this down. --Chad -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1771726 Title: After gsch2pcb, pcb fails to open the new pcb file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/pcb/+bug/1771726/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 1771726] Re: After gsch2pcb, pcb fails to open the new pcb file
Your link opens to a bug entitled "ALF footprint drill holes too tight" That is almost completely not related to this bug. If you follow the discussion change you will see that will found what is causing the problem, and its being worked on as far as I know. Its the footprint files that have a space in their name. For a recent build of the gsch2pcb, this results in a corrupted pcb file.

[Bug 1771726] Re: After gsch2pcb, pcb fails to open the new pcb file
Thanks Mitch. Point 1 is sort of iffy. In general, it would be nice to support spaces in filenames. Whether we like it or not, the computing world is moving in a direction where it is expected that you can do this. Point 2 is the real problem here, that gsch2pcb doesn't produce the correct output as a result of there being a space in the footprint filename. The bug is in the gsch2pcb.scm gnetlist backend... written in scheme... Maybe I can get one of the gschem/gnetlist developers to fix this. Point 3 is a bug in pcb, that pcb provides no explanation as to why it failed to load the file. Unfortunately, this may be a difficult bug to fix as our parser is not easy to work with. I'll have to dig into this at some point, but it's going to take a fair bit of time to work out. Possible workarounds: 1. Forego putting the footprint into gschem, and then add the footprint manually in pcb using File > Load element data to paste-buffer and then renaming the element with the correct refdes. 2. Create a copy of the offending footprint files, rename them without spaces, label the parts with those footprint names in gschem, and then point gsch2pcb at your local footprint library with the renamed parts. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1771726 Title: After gsch2pcb, pcb fails to open the new pcb file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/pcb/+bug/1771726/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1771726] Re: After gsch2pcb, pcb fails to open the new pcb file
Found the source of the problem. There are three bugs that come together to produce this behavior 1) The footprint files "DIODE_LAY 300.fp", and other in different sizes, have a space in the file name. 2) The space in the file name breaks gsch2pcb, resulting in corrupted elements in the pcb file. 3) The pcb file, on encountering the corrupt elements, outputs no error message, except to say it cant load the file. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1771726 Title: After gsch2pcb, pcb fails to open the new pcb file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/pcb/+bug/1771726/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
