Cables are drawn line objects (toolbar button next to the auto
break/reconnect button, click-move-click, right click cancels), not
components. The type comes from a CSV catalog following the material
list pattern (designation, cores, core colours, editable through the
entry dialog with "Nouvelle entrée" / "Modifier l'entrée").
Each core is bound to the wire its colour label stands on, and the
cable reference is generated per core and written into the Conductor
entry via Conductor::setCableReference(label, cable uuid, slot). The
conductor entry is where it has to live because the terminal strip
plan (Klemmenplan) consumes it in the next step.
Numbering: "Cables" rule under Programmeinstellungen/Neues
Projekt/Nummerierung auto (mirrored in project properties), literal
"W" fallback without a rule, French gate dialog when no rule exists,
Nummerierung menu with the renumber dialog (preferred axis, per-folio
counter, rule and counter state written back, hand-typed names ask,
whole-project scope).
Also included: label block and under-line texts with per-text font and
alignment plus the material-list cell margins, free-core placement and
right-click removal, claim questions for wires of other cables,
multi-selection drag as one undo step, type change with confirmation,
cross-references for type "Cable" (%f-%l%c, own font, clickable links
in exported PDFs), report propagation of the cable definition,
Listes menu (table of contents, material list, terminal strip manager,
terminal generator plugin, cable list), cable list with freely
selectable columns (installation/localisation of cable, start and end,
Blatt start/end, length, used cores...), CSV export dialog with column
pick and preview in the Projekt menu, script API (addTable kind
"cable_list", exportCableList) and a unit test for the type catalog.
A slave and a terminal are both routinely separately orderable hardware. A
circuit breaker can carry ten or twenty auxiliary blocks, each with its own
order code, and a terminal block is a purchased part in its own right.
Neither was reaching the bill of materials.
Decided in discussion #847: @IBSYSLevi -- "I would not expect that a defined
piece of hardware is excluded from BOM when not specifically defined as so" --
with use cases from @jozi332 covering Siemens breakers with ten to twenty
auxiliary blocks and PLC cards carrying per-channel data.
Two filters had to change, which is easy to miss: BomExport::defaultQuery()
and, upstream of it, the WHERE clause of element_nomenclature_view itself.
Changing only the query does nothing for slaves, because the view had already
removed them. Terminals were already in the view, so they appeared as soon as
the query allowed them -- which made a half-finished change look like it had
worked.
Measured on examples/industrial.qet, which holds 96 terminals and 41 slaves:
258 rows before, 354 with terminals, 395 with both. A slave given a
manufacturer and part number now appears in the export; previously it could
not, at any setting.
Nothing that should stay out of a bill of materials is newly included. The
folio report arrows and the conductor definition are still excluded because
they are not hardware, and anything else -- a relay's own auxiliary contact,
which is not orderable separately -- is kept out with exclude_from_bom, which
the view already honours and which #721 and #765 made settable on the symbol
itself.
tst_smart_device is updated rather than weakened. @enesgursoy6110 wrote it in
#830 to prove the filter works, inserting rows designated "Must not be
exported"; the slave and terminal rows now carry real designations and are
asserted present, and a folio report arrow takes over as the negative case,
so the test still proves filtering happens -- at the boundary we now want.

exportBomCsv() calls query.value(i).toString(). QSqlQuery::value() returns
a QVariant, but the translation unit only ever sees the forward declaration
that arrives through qobject.h, so the call does not compile:
sources/bomexport.cpp:79:50: error: invalid use of incomplete type
'class QVariant'
79 | values.append(query.value(i).toString());
Reproduced on a clean checkout of master with Qt 5.15.18. Qt6 pulls the
full definition in by another path, so the Windows CI workflow does not
see it.
