Hi Carsten, have you tried specifying -DCMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE=x86_64-linux-gnu when calling cmake in the build script? Relevant documentation here, in roughly the 2nd paragraph: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.0/command/find_library.html Thanks, Dan W On Tuesday, 16 January 2018 19:23:25

gnucap would also be very nice, especially for mixed signal stuff. That said my impression of it is that its development is not especially active at the moment. Dan W On Tuesday, 16 January 2018 09:22:49 GMT Babar Malik wrote: > Thanks a lot. As far as my background knowledge is concerned, I

[Kicad-developers] kicad back annotation tool

2018-01-13 Thread Dan Weatherill
Dear all, apologies first for the (unrelated to 5.0 stable) spam. I have been working for a while on a back-annotation tool for kicad. It is finally in a shape where I feel it's worth letting others look at it and getting some feedback. You can find it here:

Dear all, apologies for randomly jumping into this. When I switched from Altium Designer to kicad for most of my simpler designs (sometime in about 2013), the thing I missed most about Altium Designer's schematic editor was the "harness" feature, which in Altium are distinct from buses and are

Hi Jost, spacenavigator support has long been one of my top wishlist items in Kicad, and one of the main things that I miss from mostly using Altium - I thought about trying to implement it myself a couple of years ago, but at that time it seemed difficult to imagine anything like a "smooth"

Hi all, I've been using kicad for about 5 years. Recently (mostly with CERN changes - especially differential pair support), it's become suitable for more and more of my more complex projects (I'm switching from Altium Designer). I also have about 10 years experience working on c++
