17:49.46 CIA-24 BRL-CAD: 03mafm * r33078 10/rt^3/trunk/src/g3d/GedCommand.h: Changing access privileges for a method, private is not quite right in this case
17:51.21 CIA-24 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r33079 10/brlcad/trunk/ (4 files in 3 dirs):
17:51.22 CIA-24 BRL-CAD: Add a 'number of nodes' option to search called -nnodes. This is a
17:51.22 CIA-24 BRL-CAD: generalization of the -empty option, which is now removed. With this feature
17:51.22 CIA-24 BRL-CAD: search should be able to handle everything represented by the code on feature
17:51.22 CIA-24 BRL-CAD: request 1677383.
17:53.26 mafm is OK to put messages to be printed as "static const char"? I guess that it's more efficient than #defines
17:54.00 mafm but I don't know if you have recommendations or problems or even BRL-CAD guidelines about that
17:56.33 CIA-24 BRL-CAD: 03mafm * r33080 10/rt^3/trunk/src/g3d/ (Command.cxx Command.h Commands.h GedCommands.h): Small corrections to method/variable naming, it's a bit clearer and verbosity is not a hassle in this case

18:53.57 CIA-24 BRL-CAD: 03mafm * r33081 10/rt^3/trunk/src/g3d/ (Command.cxx Command.h Commands.h GedCommands.h): Using statically defined strings instead of putting messages directly in messages related with command processing (it's supposed to be more efficient and maintanable)
19:06.29 brlcad mafm: nah, there's no steadfast rule -- fairly bikeshed difference
19:06.53 brlcad if it's useful to have a handle on that data in a debugger, then definitely a static const instead of a define of course
19:11.04 mafm it's about the latest of my commits
19:14.41 ``Erik_ defines ftw!
19:14.42 mafm so I'll leave them like that if it's about the same
19:14.50 brlcad mafm: I saw the patches, nice work actually
19:15.04 mafm thanks :)
19:15.05 brlcad some nitpicks, but nothing worth complaining about that actually matters ;)
19:15.35 mafm I'm doing... peripheric work until libged is more finished
19:15.37 claymore brlcad/erik: When does your flight leave?
19:15.44 mafm also I don't have lots of time
19:16.17 mafm in example wed-fri of last week I was in a new datacenter and couldn't code a bit, I still have my project pending, etc
19:16.42 mafm I'm trying at the moment to tackle small tasks :)
19:16.54 mafm ``Erik_: why?
19:17.55 mafm also about the efficientcy, I don't know if all compilers are smart enough to optimize that in all cases (even with -O0 and the like)
19:18.15 mafm or when calling same defines from different files
19:18.24 mafm maybe they would use one string per .o file or something like that
19:20.21 ``Erik_ soon I think, claymore
19:21.31 brlcad claymore: like in 5 minutes, already boarding
19:21.35 brlcad cya on the flip side
19:22.02 brlcad mafm: small tasks are great, better than nothing, and it keeps the energy going (motivates others)
19:22.06 brlcad good stuff
19:22.16 brlcad time to board now, cheers
19:23.08 mafm good flight :)

23:57.33 CIA-24 BRL-CAD: Expand bu_units_conversion to support volume and mass. The order of searching
23:57.33 CIA-24 BRL-CAD: for matches is length, volume and finally mass. Since unit names are unique
23:57.33 CIA-24 BRL-CAD: across dimensions, this works for the string->conversion factor direction and no
23:57.34 CIA-24 BRL-CAD: new function call is needed. Unfortunately, it is NOT the case that conversion
23:57.36 CIA-24 BRL-CAD: factors are unique to dimensions and as a consequence a general conversion
23:57.38 CIA-24 BRL-CAD: factor -> string function must know if it is looking for a length, volume or
