01:19.24 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/librt/db_open.c: db_get_version() was intentionally getting passed a partially initialized dbip -- require it be initialized before we pass it around anywywhere. clean up during failure cleanup on db_open() while we're at it.
01:31.29 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/include/bu.h: add BU_DEBUG_ATTACH for the backtrace crash dump routines as a means for them to spin and wait for a debugger to attach.
01:32.51 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/libbu/backtrace.c: utilize BU_DEBUG_ATTACH to allow for run-time attaching a debugger to apps that will potentially crash. this sends the app looping until a signal is received, or a variable is manually set in the debugger.
01:46.06 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/include/ (36 files):
01:46.06 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: get rid of RCS variables from the public header files. this is done in part to
01:46.07 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: reduce recompilation during interface changes, but also to move towards not
01:46.07 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: relying on or publishing the information contained in the variables
01:46.07 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: interface-wise. (they're fine for c sources and private headers)
01:52.12 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/ (TODO include/shortvect-pr.h include/shortvect.h):
01:52.12 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: shortvect.h and shortvect-pr.h are both rather obsolete headers -- mark them as
01:52.12 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: such with a #warning and make a note to remove them. if we're ever compiling on
01:52.12 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: a cray again and need those features, they more appropriately belong in the
01:52.12 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: config header.
01:59.41 MinstrelGypsy ./bak/cvscheckout
02:01.02 MinstrelGypsy been bust in include have you brlcad:
02:01.07 MinstrelGypsy err busy too
02:02.15 MinstrelGypsy urff failed to remove a lock file?
02:02.41 MinstrelGypsy collision immenent :)
02:06.16 MinstrelGypsy forgot the .sh anyway but it pays to checkout the channel occaisionally :)
02:09.04 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/include/ (28 files): clean up the header protections so that they are all now more consistent with one another via use of __HEADER_H__ for the define names.
02:09.15 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/mged/ged.h: don't declare the same thing that the public header declares for us
02:11.05 brlcad making final preparations for 7.10.2
02:13.35 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/include/rtgeom.h: missed the endif
02:17.30 MinstrelGypsy what's that old saying? "Love to watch my work work" :) (when it *does work)
02:21.26 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/include/ (plot3.h raytrace.h): more consistency cleanup
02:28.19 b0ef does brlcad do any form of uv mapping?
02:46.14 brlcad yes, but generally only relevant when you use the various texture/projection shaders
02:46.42 brlcad all the primitives have a routine that reports uv information for any given shotline
02:50.21 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/librt/bigE.c: minor header cleanup
02:59.51 b0ef brlcad: not sure I understand; I'm looking to uv map a set of meshes; can I use an image and have it tile over the mesh?
03:00.15 b0ef like for example asphalt texture
03:35.07 MinstrelGypsy a little "yea" is heard :)

14:27.49 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/libbu/bomb.c: move the variables off the stack, making them static globals, just to be more safe. Also, be more assertive about informing the user that a stack trace has been saved (since mged captures std output).
14:29.51 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/ (Makefile.am bench/Makefile.am): delegate benchmark rules down to the bench dir so they're only in one place (and so files aren't generated in the top-level), mirroring what regress does. inform the user when benchmark completes about the clobber rule.

18:30.42 MinstrelGypsy http://www.pastebin.ca/512083 <----- BrlCad : This is the one you fixed last night right?
19:18.07 *** join/#brlcad louipc_ (n=louipc@bas8-toronto63-1096735026.dsl.bell.ca)
20:00.33 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/bench/run.sh: add sanity checks for commands that are required, add ability to quell output entirely via QUIET and verbosely with VERBOSE.
20:06.28 *** join/#brlcad Elperion (n=Bary@84.135.66.22)
20:18.25 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/bench/run.sh: add support for a clobber command argument so the benchmark tool can clean up after itself no matter where it's run from
20:27.13 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/bench/Makefile.am: build system no longer needs to know or care -- delegate cleanup to the benchmark tool directly
20:28.10 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/NEWS: added 'clobber' cleanup command to benchmark tool

20:59.21 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/configure.ac: force the tk interface off for now, there are still many issues to resolve -- particularly crashes under os x
21:04.47 MinstrelGypsy ;)
21:07.01 MinstrelGypsy you need to add an item on the summary to indicate same
21:56.31 MinstrelGypsy http://www.pastebin.ca/512474 <----- show stopper, latest checkout
21:57.08 MinstrelGypsy err roots.c in librt
21:57.55 MinstrelGypsy urfff i should support LOCAL?
21:58.50 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/libfb/if_tk.c: libfb interface files are conditionally empty, so add the appropriate IF_TK protection
21:59.16 MinstrelGypsy i do :)
22:02.21 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/AUTHORS: bonomo's last name first, credit tim for his extensive tk interface contributions
22:05.40 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/libdm/dm-tk.c: credit tim, ws
22:05.53 MinstrelGypsy why on earth does taking LOCAL out fix it
22:08.45 *** join/#brlcad elite01 (n=elite01@dslb-088-070-004-147.pools.arcor-ip.net)
22:13.16 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/librt/roots.c: FAST and LOCAL are no longer really useful, adding more burden than they provide, so begin a move towards deprecation.
