16:09.41 learner mornin'
16:43.41 polyspin Good afternoon
16:43.57 polyspin Having build problems on both panther and tiger.

16:52.52 polyspin Tiger shows that raytrace.h is dependent on sys/types.h
16:52.59 polyspin Tcl/Tk not building on Panther
16:55.09 learner ahh, that would be the off_t
16:55.30 learner added rt_mk_binunif() for creating binunif's in libwdb
16:56.23 learner the off_t was related to another bug where off_t was a 64bit type, and it was getting clamped to a 32bit type
16:59.33 learner i did a full 10.4 build just a week ago or so
17:00.02 learner what's it actually complaining about?
17:13.08 learner converting to a non-off_t type, though probably will need some better edge tests in rt_mk_binunif for reading binunif's files that are larger than long bytes
17:22.50 learner fixed, testing
17:29.25 CIA-3 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/ (include/raytrace.h src/librt/binary_obj.c): replace the off_t with a long -- this requires a check to make sure the data being created is actually not too big since an off_t is potentially a 64bit type.
17:30.48 learner that will let us still use files larger than long bytes, but you just still can't create a binunif larger than long types
17:34.12 learner this sucker is getting harder to maintain with all the timing logic being added
19:19.20 CIA-3 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/rt/main.c: if the frame actually fails for some reason, return a non-zero value instead of 0 (this prevents returning zero when output file gives permission denied)

19:24.00 polyspin Anyone awake?
19:24.30 learner nope
19:25.07 polyspin I've got a Panther system where none of the past 3 releases builds clean.
19:25.31 polyspin I suspect the dev tools are out of date, but I'm not sure how to do the update.
19:25.52 learner eh, the build error can't be that bad
19:26.05 learner i build just a week or so ago
19:26.17 polyspin Xcode reports 1.5 alpha on this machine.
19:26.23 polyspin How do I upgrade xcode?
19:26.33 learner what does gcc_select say?
19:27.04 polyspin gcc version 3.3 20030304 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 1660)
19:27.20 learner that should work just fine then
19:27.23 polyspin The fink website indicates 1.5 had some bugs.
19:27.55 learner bugs in xcode itself of with gcc/libc/headers ? brl-cad only cares about the later
19:28.17 learner what's the build error?
19:28.51 polyspin ItkStubLib.c:116: error: request for member `hooks' in something not a structure or union
19:28.55 learner xtools updates are on the adc website
19:29.15 learner wow, failed inside our build of itk
19:29.22 polyspin safari keeps wanting to log me in as "arl" to adc
19:29.28 learner sounds like a missing header
19:30.19 polyspin Great googly moogly! X is missing!
19:30.40 learner ahh
19:30.43 polyspin X11/include only has a bitmaps directory
19:30.47 learner that'd do it :)
19:31.01 learner the X11 dev kit is a separate install only available on the dev cd
19:32.17 learner have it here http://ftp.brlcad.org/tmp/
19:32.24 learner X11SDK
19:32.45 polyspin fetching
19:33.38 polyspin On windows this would have meant re-installing the os ;-)
19:33.45 learner btw the adc "arl" account was the account I made when we had the select membership
19:35.27 polyspin I know. I just didn't remember the password or even if it had expired.
19:35.48 learner the adc account doesn't expire, but the select membership did
19:36.16 learner see pm
19:36.34 polyspin BTW, on Tiger, raytrace.h now seems to depend on sys/types.h for off_t
19:36.48 learner yep
19:36.54 learner i changed that just earlier
19:37.06 polyspin Wasn't in there this morning ;-)
19:37.21 learner the off_t was related to another bug where off_t was a 64bit type, and it was getting clamped to a 32bit type
19:37.54 learner 13:29:26: CIA-3: BRL-CAD: 3brlcad * 0brlcad/ (include/raytrace.h src/librt/binary_obj.c): replace the off_t with a long -- this requires a check to make sure the data being created is actually not too big since an off_t is potentially a 64bit type.
19:38.25 polyspin I remembered that. Just couldn't remember the fix.
19:39.20 polyspin Did we really use the select membership?
19:39.43 polyspin It was something like $500 if I recall
19:40.05 learner the fix was basically to make sure all the places we did a stat didn't assume the file size to be a 32bit type (like passing that size to bu_malloc without casting)
19:40.25 learner yes, we used it a fair bit
19:41.10 polyspin Give me some specifics and we'll put in a buy to renew it.
19:41.12 learner 500 got us prereleased OS updates, on-line training, software code examples, and beta tests of their new software
19:41.24 learner we didn't use the hardware discount, though it's a wash with the other discounts possible
19:42.35 learner the on-line training was one of the best things we could have used better.. only sat in on a couple webcasted lectures out of about a dozen "tickets" we could have used
19:43.30 polyspin Think Glenn would use it too? I might be able to argue it's a "corp" investment
19:45.09 learner i did mention it to him
19:47.56 polyspin Building smoothly now that Panther has X. Thx
19:49.46 polyspin Grrr. Now if_ogl.c isn't compiling
19:49.50 polyspin Yes
19:50.01 learner k :)
19:50.08 learner error?
19:50.33 polyspin if_ogl.c:89: error: parse error before "XEvent"
19:50.57 learner ahh
19:51.03 learner cached configure results
19:51.27 learner rm -rf *cache*
19:51.32 polyspin make distclean now
19:51.51 learner ack.. just need to rerun configure without cache .. :)
19:52.35 learner running autogen.sh again would have fixed it to since it invalidates the cache
19:53.51 learner basically it ended up with a brlcad_config.h that didn't have HAVE_X11_XLIB_H defined, so no header -- so XEvent is unknown
19:54.38 learner since you didn't have X11/Xlib.h when you ran configure and it has no idea that you installed new system headers

19:55.44 polyspin I was just about to say nice things about snak5.0 being released when it seg-faulted on me ;-)
19:56.38 polyspin Know anyplace I can get new batteries for the original Titanium? Mine holds a charge for about 15min these days
19:58.09 learner http://www.macmall.com/macmall/shop/detail~dpno~341565.asp
19:58.39 learner http://www.macmall.com/macmall/search/search.asp?search=powerbook+battery&NavID_Search=false&submit1.x=0&submit1.y=0&CurDSN=simple&calledfrom=1&incimage=on
19:59.43 learner for 10 bucks more, you can get one from apple
19:59.55 learner might be a discount buying direct
20:01.08 learner from the price on the new powerbook laptop batteries, though, I doubt it
20:07.16 learner probably have to call for it
20:08.34 polyspin Many thanks for the help.
20:08.43 learner np
