05:57.39 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30337 10/brlcad/trunk/ (4 files in 3 dirs): make the format specifier const for bu_log, bu_flog, bu_vls_printf, bu_vls_sprintf
06:44.12 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30338 10/brlcad/trunk/src/ (11 files in 3 dirs):
06:44.12 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: make get_font() return a struct vfont structure containing the data that was
06:44.12 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: previously in globals. it's small enough that a struct copy should be fine,
06:44.12 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: caller managers their own data instead of it coming from the library.
07:27.08 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30339 10/brlcad/trunk/src/fbed/ (7 files): quell all extra compilation warnings

08:23.09 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30340 10/brlcad/trunk/src/lgt/ (18 files): quell all extra compilation warnings save for assert()
08:25.54 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30341 10/brlcad/trunk/src/vfont/ (font.h getfont.c): quell warnings, name callback vfont_log() to avoid shadowing the log() math func

08:28.54 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30342 10/brlcad/trunk/src/ (8 files in 3 dirs): rename font.h back to its original vfont.h name just to be consistent with it being an interface (albeit still considered 'private', hence not in include/)
08:35.33 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30343 10/brlcad/trunk/src/vfont/ (Makefile.am vfont.h): get rid of the WORDS_BIGENDIAN use in favor of bu_byteorder() run-time detection
08:52.30 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30344 10/brlcad/trunk/doc/html/ (ReleaseNotes/email4.4.html manuals/Install.html): obliterate some more phone numbers, even in older historic docs just in case

16:21.11 MinuteElectron GUESS WHAT GUYZ!
16:21.21 MinuteElectron It's tomorrow afternoon, already! :D :D :D
16:25.54 brlcad heh
16:47.27 clock_ brlcad: I want to write a program where you enter vortices and it creates a polygonal plate like what you should paste into arbn
16:47.33 clock_ Doesn't it accidentally exist?
16:47.37 clock_ To prevent double work?
17:05.53 brlcad clock_: yes, if I understand you correctly there is .. gimme a min and I'll whip up an example
17:06.37 brlcad there's an experimental reverse modeling interface that lets you provide a connected loop of points and a depth and it creates a plate
17:06.43 brlcad planar-only
17:07.44 clock_ that's what I want
17:08.15 clock_ Because I designed an end-plate welded to a rolled U50 channel with ahole triangle and the shape is complicated
17:09.01 clock_ I am sure the first garage-made space shuttle will be drawn in BRL-CAD :)

17:46.48 *** join/#brlcad docelic (n=docelic@77.237.112.158)
17:49.19 MinuteElectron Ok, as far as I can tell the IE6 corners bug is fixed for the first and second side block, but continues to happen seamingly randomly on the thirs.
17:49.22 MinuteElectron *third
17:52.38 MinuteElectron And at the moment when logged out it goes away when you refresh the page.
17:52.51 MinuteElectron or that could just be my cache
17:52.58 MinuteElectron regardless it is now gone when you're logged out
17:55.37 MinuteElectron Now working on every page when logged in, except the main page.
17:55.41 brlcad the css isn't any different for logged in/out, so something with the content itself is provoking the style to change..
17:56.21 MinuteElectron There is a different number of boxes when logged in or out. When logged out there are 2, when in there are 3.
17:56.49 MinuteElectron So whatever the problem is has to be compencated for the third box as well when logged in afaict
17:57.13 brlcad maybe the contents of one of the boxes
17:57.29 MinuteElectron perhpas
17:57.45 brlcad e.g. on the main page, the main box defined as part of the contet iirc
17:58.23 MinuteElectron yes
17:58.39 brlcad ahh, clock left
17:58.58 MinuteElectron ok, corners are now fixed
17:59.38 brlcad sweet!
17:59.40 brlcad so what was the problem?
18:00.00 MinuteElectron I had some old CSS code for IE6 only in the page.tpl.php file.
18:00.12 MinuteElectron It used some uneeded conditionals so i just removed it and it was fixed.
18:01.17 brlcad heh
18:01.24 brlcad awesome
18:01.27 MinuteElectron This is why inline CSS is evil.
18:01.40 brlcad wonder if that fixes the menu too
18:01.42 MinuteElectron indeed, now on to the opera bug
18:01.54 MinuteElectron possibly, i don't think so though
18:15.12 MinuteElectron hell yes, opera 9.2 bug fixed
18:16.16 MinuteElectron That just leaves LDAP, Drupal heavy Load response, and the mysterious IE bug I can't replicate.
18:17.53 MinuteElectron brlcad: When yuo get a moment can you explain to me what Drupal heavy load response is - I still haven't worked it out.
18:22.01 brlcad the heavy load response is what the site does if it's hit with a lot of users all at once
18:22.36 brlcad e.g. a slashdotting
18:23.13 brlcad so to survive the high load, the site disables portions of the site (like polling)
18:23.33 brlcad I tweaked a lot of the settings already, so that one may be taken care of
18:30.12 MinuteElectron ok
18:31.31 MinuteElectron That just leaves LDAP and the IE6 bug.
18:34.35 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30345 10/brlcad/trunk/AUTHORS: paul randal with one ell?
18:51.51 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30346 10/brlcad/trunk/AUTHORS: his first name was apparently cormac, he just went my corey

22:45.51 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30347 10/brlcad/trunk/ (676 files in 44 dirs): (log message trimmed)
22:45.51 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: categoric removal of the source, author, and function list sections in files,
22:45.51 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: particularly the source file header sections. those are all sections of data
22:45.51 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: that are more often incomplete or out-of-date than they are correct and are a
22:45.51 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: maintenance burden that has no direct benefit. the 'source' section (i.e. the
22:45.54 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: address) is mostly irrelevant with the open sourcing. the authorship is better
22:45.56 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: comprehensively preserved through the SCM revision control system, and was the
23:09.19 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30348 10/brlcad/trunk/src/remrt/rtsrv.c: match bu_log's new const goodness
23:31.00 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30349 10/brlcad/trunk/sh/footer.sh: weird.. don't use single-line comments for headers, use comment blocks like we do for .c files
23:32.30 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30350 10/brlcad/trunk/src/ (15 files in 9 dirs): remove some remaining references to RCS vars
23:35.42 CIA-4 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30351 10/brlcad/trunk/src/ (burst/HmGetc.c burst/HmGlob.c lgt/ir.c): de-LINT
