05:24.42 brlcad yukonbob: that's news to me -- they should be strings that Tcl manages with error messages in them
05:25.01 brlcad they can be error messages for *anything*, similar to errno
05:27.44 brlcad in mged (at least on the C side), it should only get reported during dbopen and parsing the .mgedrc
05:34.31 brlcad and I don't see anything of relevance on the tcl side either ..
06:24.11 yukonbob brlcad: try this:
06:24.22 yukonbob proc vartrace {n1 n2 op} { puts "$n1: $op -- [set $n1]"
06:24.22 yukonbob }
06:24.36 yukonbob trace add variable errorCode write vartrace
06:24.36 yukonbob trace add variable errorInfo write vartrace
06:36.28 yukonbob ... new version:
06:36.30 yukonbob .
06:36.50 yukonbob proc vartrace {n1 n2 op} { puts "$n1: $op -- $::errorInfo"
06:36.50 yukonbob }
06:37.01 yukonbob trace add variable errorInfo write vartrace
06:37.37 yukonbob ^-- type this into mged, and then watch as you type your commands... see if anything looks familiar (error-wise)

13:41.46 brlcad yukonbob: I'm not sure what that's actually showing me
13:41.55 brlcad other than internal tcl garbage
13:43.09 brlcad i'm not seeing error messages, just temp junk from the commands

15:13.27 brlcad well I've at least finally traced down the cause of why the opengl framebuffer stopped working
15:14.23 brlcad it was the machine.h change that made smp work on the intel macs .. it was falling through to the static case and that apparently works
15:23.02 ``Erik hrm, all that trouble cuz we've been putting off moving that functionality into configure.ac :D
15:26.40 brlcad that doesn't matter
15:26.51 brlcad still doesn't explain why it's actually not working
15:27.24 brlcad if it were in configure, it'd still be just as broken because it's getting to the section that *should* be right

16:34.44 clock_ brlcad: unfortunately the BRL-CAD documentation is not very helpful when it contains errors like this: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1892876&group_id=105292&atid=640802
16:38.35 brlcad k, thx
16:39.11 clock_ you're welcome
16:39.32 clock_ I don't mean it as criticism I just want to say it's hard to learn in a situation like this
16:40.02 brlcad understandably
17:42.52 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30275 10/brlcad/trunk/src/lgt/resource.c: ws and header
17:43.29 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30276 10/brlcad/trunk/src/lgt/do_options.c: cleanup function, unprotect since bu_avail_cpus() does the protection for us.
17:47.32 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30277 10/brlcad/trunk/src/lgt/do_options.c: if there's only one proc, don't bother asking
17:50.48 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30278 10/brlcad/trunk/src/lgt/resource.c: wtf, the functions in resource.c arent' even used. get rid of it.
17:51.28 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30279 10/brlcad/trunk/src/lgt/Makefile.am: remove the unused resource.c
18:21.35 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30280 10/brlcad/trunk/src/libbu/parallel.c: make bu_avail_cpus() behave neatly if we're not compiling PARALLEL so that it just returns 1
18:42.44 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30281 10/brlcad/trunk/ (8 files in 6 dirs):
18:42.44 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: remove/refactor DEFAULT_PSW from machine.h so that now it's really just up to
18:42.44 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: rt_avail_cpus() to report the max and up to the user to decide how many. the
18:42.44 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: default is now consistently set the same for everyone to the number of
18:42.44 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: processors available. if someone needs to re-port to an old CRAY and specifying
18:42.46 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: -P1 from userland isn't sufficient, we can refactor a bu_default_cpus() routine
18:42.48 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: with better logic. one step closer to removing machine.h
19:10.40 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30282 10/brlcad/trunk/ (include/machine.h src/libbu/convert.c): get rid of IEEE_FLOAT .. the code didn't actually use it except for one case in 'cv' and was set to 1 for all platforms. if something needs to know, there are configure tests for ieee float.
19:31.57 *** join/#brlcad Z80-Boy (i=clock@77-56-81-29.dclient.hispeed.ch)
21:31.40 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30283 10/brlcad/trunk/ (include/machine.h src/libbu/malloc.c):
21:31.40 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: remove MALLOC_NOT_MP_SAFE from machine.h, moving it to src/libbu/malloc.c and
21:31.40 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: enabling it for all platforms. there were only a few old platforms that were
21:31.40 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: not specifically set as malloc-not-mp-safe and it's not clear which of those
21:31.40 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: were actually verified as safe so just turn it on for all for now.
21:54.01 CIA-31 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30284 10/brlcad/trunk/src/rt/ (Makefile.am scat.h): scat.h seems to be completely unused, remove it

23:10.09 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30286 10/brlcad/trunk/ (3 files in 2 dirs): remove FOPEN_MAX from machine.h, moving it over to the only single place it's used over in libtermio.
23:16.23 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30287 10/brlcad/trunk/include/ (bu.h machine.h): with the exception of the convex (where it was 'long long'), bitv_t was set to 'long' for all platforms. so move the bitv_t typedef out of machine.h and into bu.h
