DRC uses these flags to find errors. After clearing all the flags, the undo serial number is incremented. When we're done, we'll clear all the flags again, and execute an "undo" to restore the state. |

| - | - For every element pin, pad, and via, execute DRCFind. DRCFind builds a connection list starting from the given pin/pad/via four times. See below for a more detailed description of that process (if I get around to writing it). | + | - Use DRCFind to check for "insufficient overlap" and "insufficient clearance" in copper objects. |
| - | - Apply a global bloat of value "Shrink", and build a connection list, with global drc set to false. This will set the DRCFLAG and SELECTEDFLAG on every object that is touching the given pin/pad/via. | + | - For every element pin, pad, and via, execute DRCFind. DRCFind builds a connection list starting from the given pin/pad/via four times using the [[pcb:connection_lookup | "connection lookup"]] code. |

| + | - With "drc" set to true, the add_object_to_list function will exit with a return status when it finds something that doesn't have the SELECTEDFLAG set. "Thing" is set to the new object. | ||
| + | - This status propagates back up, and the connection lookup is terminated early. | ||
| + | - A drc_violation is created that includes the "Thing" object. | ||
| + | - Check for insufficient clearance: | ||
| + | - Do the same routine as above, except starting with a global bloat of 0, and using a bloat of "Bloat" for the second run through. | ||
| + | - Check for minimum copper line widths: | ||
| + | - Iterate over all copper lines with COPPERLINE_LOOP | ||
| + | - Test the thickness value of the line | ||
