Something doesn't seem right in module.i. This line:
def GetPluginForPath(lpath):
return IO_MGR.PluginFind(IO_MGR.LEGACY)
in the %pyhton section would suggest that the only plugin available to
this code is the legacy plugin. Why would you not want get any valid
plugin type? This seems unnecessarily limited.
I don't think it will be a quick fix. Solving the FootprintEnumerate()
issue will most likely require some C++ coding to directly call the
plugin FootprintEnumerate() method in the pcbnew library and convert the
wxArrayString contents into a python string list.
