Requires the glfw3 libs to be installed if you wish to build the viewer application.
Build everything with:
make -j
Build just the parts you need with:
make -j [c_pcb c_pcb_dsn c_pcb_view]
Example command lines would be:
./c_pcb --v 1 netlist.pcb | ./c_pcb_view --o 1 --s 7
./c_pcb_dsn test1.dsn | ./c_pcb --v 1 --z 8 --q 10 --r 2 | ./c_pcb_view
You can drop the output to a file and view it as an animation with:
./c_pcb --v 1 netlist.pcb > anim
./c_pcb_view anim
-h or --help for help on either app.
Format of .pcb input file or stdin is:
DIMS : (width height depth)
POINT2D : (x y)
POINT3D : (x y z)
SHAPE : (POINT2D ...)
PATH : (POINT3D ...)
PATHS : (PATH ...)
PAD : (pad_radius pad_gap POINT3D SHAPE)
PADS : (PAD ...)
TRACK : (track_radius via_radius track_gap PADS PATHS)
PCB : DIMS TRACK ... ... ()
Special treatment is given to tracks with a track_radius of 0.0, they are used to hold unused pads and keepout paths. No attempt is made to route them, they are just added to the collision hash for all other routing.
Tracks containing paths as input to the router are treated as pre existing wireing and are preserved as is in the output. Only pads of tracks with no existing wiring to them are routed.
