irclog2html for #brlcad on 20050306

00:23.19 narnia brlcad, well after numerous reading of -11ed2 i think i finally understand 'total_over' and 'andor'.
02:01.23 brlcad cool
02:05.52 CIA-3 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/sh/make_pkg.sh: root authorization and yes, it's required for the compat folks too
02:53.24 CIA-3 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/sh/make_pkg.sh: create pax files in cpio format and strip the leading slash so that the stored archive loation is relative
03:51.14 CIA-3 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/mged/cmd.c: avoid segment violation on a short argv[1]
04:03.55 brlcad ouch
04:48.03 narnia brlcad, for a first draft of the express interface for brl-cad instead of attempting both ap203/ap214 would just ap203 be acceptable?
04:49.25 narnia brlcad, the reason i ask that is because the by learning from the mistakes i make with a simple ap would allow additional aps to go more smoothly.
04:56.12 narnia brlcad, s/simple/single/
05:25.23 brlcad narnia: of course
05:29.18 brlcad that makes sense regardless to just get one working first
05:33.09 brlcad ap214 is less common since it was ratified a couple years after, though it is the one with csg
05:37.06 narnia brlcad, i am writing some perl scripts to help me work through the changes to libexpress.
05:39.42 narnia i was looking at ap210 not sure about that on. it is mainly electronic. that was the one a member of step-os suggested.
05:40.37 narnia i still am trying to figure out what STEPmod on sourceforge is all about. i am not into xml or dtd.
05:42.12 narnia i have come to the conclusion that there is alot of verbose meaningless junk on the internet about step. the wg11 mailing list. talk about egos.

19:18.22 EricWilhelm anybody know of some open-source cam software?
19:19.04 EricWilhelm (I know, what a great Sunday-afternoon question.)
19:21.56 brlcad EricWilhelm: nope, not a one
19:23.28 brlcad that's part of what's being worked on now with the step converter and g-code converter
19:41.16 *** join/#brlcad Koolosh (~renato@200164252211.user.veloxzone.com.br)
19:45.02 narnia EricWilhelm, i am working on that.
19:45.55 narnia EricWilhelm, just in the last week we have received significant help in that area.
19:47.01 narnia EricWilhelm, basically three separate projects are being either merged or glued together to give us opensource cad-cam.
19:47.41 narnia EricWilhelm, brl-cad, emc, and my project http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnu-cad-cam
19:49.41 narnia EricWilhelm, emc http://sourceforge.net/projects/emc and of course brl-cad http://sourceforge.net/projects/brlcad
19:49.56 narnia brlcad, did i miss anything?
19:50.23 brlcad that's about right

20:48.41 EricWilhelm oo. hope it warms up a bit before I get there :-)
20:50.21 EricWilhelm narnia, where are you keeping the code base? do you have a mailing list?
21:03.12 narnia EricWilhelm, code base is currently on my computers. no mailing list as of yet.
21:04.37 narnia -weather kdkb
21:05.02 narnia ~weather kdkb
21:30.52 danfalck EricWilhelm: so, you're moving to Portland, Or?
21:32.12 danfalck EricWilhem: I'm interested in CAM and work in Portland, Or
21:32.52 danfalck EricWilhelm: I use EMC to control machines and need an opensource CAM package.
22:17.05 EricWilhelm danfalck, we should talk
22:17.15 EricWilhelm http://scratchcomputing.com
22:37.26 danfalck EricWilhelm: sorry I was out riding my bike for a bit
22:39.05 danfalck EricWilhelm: you are on the linuxcad mailing list, right?
22:39.35 danfalck or I should say the one that phrostie started for open source cad software
22:40.24 narnia danfalck, hello, how goes it? was out playing with tom, the new puppy. beautiful day.
22:40.44 danfalck narnia: it's a beautiful day here as well
22:40.49 narnia danfalck, did you see my comments above?
22:41.11 danfalck narnia: some of them
22:41.22 danfalck narnia: how are you doing?
22:42.02 narnia danfalck, this past week brlcad and i have been given access to the iso step documents. big help having those documents.
22:42.27 danfalck narnia: so you are migrating some libraries (express?)
22:43.01 narnia danfalck, i am working on getting the nist scl3-2 libexpress updated to 10303-11ed2.
22:44.02 narnia danfalck, working on the parse, bison/yacc and flex/lex, to read in iso-10303-21 files.
22:45.18 narnia danfalck, ap203 is the next milestone. once that is done map from ap203 to brl-cad database.
22:46.03 narnia danfalck, scoping out the requirements to generate g-code from a bdl-cad database.
22:46.34 danfalck narnia: wow.
22:46.45 narnia danfalck, man need to rewrite some on the code i am recycling from my project.
22:46.57 danfalck narnia: I'm not a programmer, so that all sounds like a lot of heavy lifting...
22:47.25 danfalck narnia: I do appreciate your effort
22:47.51 narnia danfalck, a large portion of the code exists, needs to be updated to latest editions of iso documents and glued together.
22:48.12 danfalck narnia: the gnu_cad_cam code?
22:48.22 narnia danfalck, yes
22:48.36 danfalck narnia: is it on sourceforge?
22:50.05 narnia danfalck, gnu_cad_cam design document is on sourceforge. trying to work through the projects. brl-cad and emc will be loosely coupled after the merge.
22:50.28 danfalck narnia: great
22:50.29 narnia danfalck, gnu_cad_cam will eventually go away.
22:51.13 narnia danfalck, replaced by the new interfaces to brl-cad and between brl-cad and emc.
22:52.49 narnia danfalck, eventually want brl-cad and emc to 'talk' step-nc.
22:54.26 danfalck narnia: I need to step out for a bit. My kids and I are going to build cork guns.
22:54.32 danfalck good chatting
