12:32.10 CIA-20 BRL-CAD: take the dynamic C runtime macro _DLL into consideration for the dynamic TCL library too

17:06.00 brlcad humm
17:10.26 mafm o/
17:27.05 mafm brlcad: my mentor never joins IRC, does he?
17:36.36 brlcad mafm: hmm, not much :)
17:36.47 brlcad i've been trying to get him to but he's very "old school" :)
17:38.39 brlcad feel free to use me or any of the other mentors as backup though .. the mentors are not meant to be the sole POC for technical input/direction
17:38.51 brlcad they're more to keep track of progress and evaluation
17:44.44 mafm yep, I know and I already read your info
17:45.03 mafm but I think that I should talk a bit with him anyway
17:48.05 brlcad yeah, you should e-mail him :)
17:52.42 mafm okie dokie
17:58.03 brlcad mafm: oh, and don't forget the design doc when you get the chance, that gives him something to actually talk about ;)
17:58.46 mafm sure, I have the browser open since last week, but only half the work done
17:58.51 brlcad :)
18:01.19 mafm I finished with most of my pending mail today and got the Slashdot's count down to less than 150 articles
18:01.42 mafm but I guess that I should get things sorted out with my broken laptop before warranty expires :D
18:15.49 mafm one thing about the patches that you were talking about in the documentation, in order to get commit access...
18:16.24 mafm how is that achieved in projects tackling new areas, as mine is supposed to be? do I have to delve into other areas first?
18:32.53 mafm well, heading home now...
18:33.09 mafm bye

22:03.08 brlcad starseeker_: could be
22:03.43 starseeker_ that poses a problem...
22:03.55 brlcad not saying it is true
22:03.57 brlcad just "could be"
22:04.05 brlcad have to look through the interface
22:04.22 brlcad mk_rcomb used to, dunno about mk_addmember
22:05.56 brlcad yeah, looks like it does expose it
22:06.13 brlcad slaps starseeker_ around for not reading the header
22:07.53 starseeker_ mutters about the man page and looks for the header instead...
22:11.00 brlcad that manual page is considerably out of date
22:11.07 brlcad it still refers to FILE pointers
22:11.22 brlcad we've not used file pointers for many years
22:11.32 brlcad you should update the header, clean it up
22:11.54 brlcad or come up with a good/better less-manual way to keep them in sync
22:19.48 starseeker_ Am I reading the header right that mk_lcomb does not expose the air flag, but mk_comb does?
22:27.57 starseeker_ Ah, I think that's got it...
22:30.19 CIA-20 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r30944 10/brlcad/trunk/src/proc-db/tire.c: Add air region inside of tire.
22:33.13 starseeker_ groans in dismay as he realizes the air wireframes will significantly change the wireframe screenshots and he has to redo them again...
22:33.26 starseeker_ ah, well, the cost of progress
22:38.48 CIA-20 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r30945 10/brlcad/trunk/ (8 files in 3 dirs): remove obsolete libwdb interfaces for strsol, reg4, and spl. this includes mk_trc(), mk_bsolid(), mk_bsurf(), mk_strsol(), mk_rcomb(), mk_fcomb(), mk_memb(), and mk_fwrite_internal().
22:39.08 starseeker_ is beaten to the punch by brlcad
22:39.29 brlcad there's plenty more to do, go for it :)
22:39.32 starseeker_ hehe
22:40.00 starseeker_ were you stripping it out of the code?
22:40.41 starseeker_ diffs
22:41.03 starseeker_ ah
22:44.42 brlcad i mean cleanup in general, there's lots of loving that libwdb could use
22:46.19 starseeker_ indeed
22:55.29 *** join/#brlcad MTee (n=MT@41.233.133.230)
22:56.40 CIA-20 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r30946 10/brlcad/trunk/src/proc-db/ (tire.1 tire.c): Add -s option to specify radius of maximum sidewall width point.
