| 03:06.13 | Dr_Phreakenstein | archer gives: |

| 03:06.39 | Dr_Phreakenstein | then tells me that the error is unexpected, aborting |
| 03:07.34 | ``Erik | hm, did you build with --enable-all ? |

| 03:10.26 | Dr_Phreakenstein | are any of those options problematic? |

| 03:11.21 | Dr_Phreakenstein | tk ver 8.5.6 |
| 03:11.42 | Dr_Phreakenstein | should i retry with internal tk? |
| 03:11.44 | ``Erik | um, possibly, we have a tuned set of optimizations, --enable-optimized should be used instead of that CFLAGS stuff (there might be conflicts), and --build should theoretically be left to do its own |
| 03:12.21 | Dr_Phreakenstein | does -optimized find my processor type (-march) |
| 03:12.25 | ``Erik | --with-gnu-ld would be assume, and I believe --enable-optimized insinuates --disbale-debug |

| 03:52.43 | Dr_Phreakenstein | they used wood screws, and pounded them in with a hammer |
| 03:54.27 | brlcad | hah |
| 03:55.38 | Dr_Phreakenstein | if that was the only problem, i could forgive them, but they were slow, flakey, expensive, and the language barrier did not help |
| 03:56.01 | Dr_Phreakenstein | finished work was sub-par at best |
| 03:56.42 | Dr_Phreakenstein | in their defense, wood is not the material of choice over there, so they as a whole had little experience, and less to work with |
| 03:57.23 | Dr_Phreakenstein | here, every 9-year old boy knows how to hammer nails, and use a tape measure, at least a little bit |

| 05:11.21 | Dr_Phreakenstein | ok, ran into error running make test |
| 05:11.40 | Dr_Phreakenstein | this may be why i stoppped using internal tcl |
| 05:13.39 | Dr_Phreakenstein | question: |
| 05:14.10 | Dr_Phreakenstein | if i use internal tcl/tk, where can i put brlcad specific init.tcl? |
| 05:15.57 | Dr_Phreakenstein | or, more specifically, how do i point brlcad components to a different init.tcl file |
| 05:25.25 | Dr_Phreakenstein | fixed it |
| 05:25.42 | Dr_Phreakenstein | gotta make install *before* make test |
| 05:45.42 | brlcad | ah, yes .. make test has lots of limitations |
| 05:46.17 | brlcad | has to be installed, maybe requires an in-place build iirc too |
| 05:57.03 | Dr_Phreakenstein | back to same -menu error after recommended options |
| 05:57.41 | Dr_Phreakenstein | something in tcl |
| 05:58.22 | Dr_Phreakenstein | i am looking at my environment to see how it is (likely) clobbering brlcad's local tcl install |
| 05:58.31 | Dr_Phreakenstein | by tcl i mean tcl/tk |
| 05:58.49 | Dr_Phreakenstein | , itk, and friends |
| 06:01.39 | brlcad | where are you installing to? the default path? |
| 06:02.00 | brlcad | ah, /usr/local |
| 06:04.14 | brlcad | was going to say that it's very unlikely that it'd be an environment issue, unless you're mixing into a dir with existing tcl data |
| 06:04.45 | brlcad | still seems unlikely to me (more likely just a simple, maybe recent, bug in archer) |
| 06:05.34 | brlcad | easy enough test if you really want to test it would be to install into /usr/brlcad |
| 06:05.43 | brlcad | (i.e., the configure default) |
| 06:08.37 | Dr_Phreakenstein | how do i tell it to go to /usr/local/brlcad? have tried in past, with no success (trying to keep /usr uncluttered, no luck) |
| 06:09.53 | Dr_Phreakenstein | wait- that may have been the ebuild that i made (gentoo install file) that could not do it |
| 06:10.01 | Dr_Phreakenstein | trying now... |
| 06:11.25 | Dr_Phreakenstein | by chance, does brlcad look at an environment variable named TCL_LIBRARY |
| 06:11.41 | Dr_Phreakenstein | i have that, set by something else, to 8.4 |
| 06:13.33 | Dr_Phreakenstein | also, TCLHOME, TCLLIBPATH, ITCL_LIBRARY, ITK_LIBRARY |
| 06:15.49 | Dr_Phreakenstein | brlcad: are you on the east coast? |
| 06:20.55 | brlcad | --prefix=/usr/local/brlcad |
| 06:21.07 | Dr_Phreakenstein | more directly, do you ever sleep? you are tremendously helpful, about 22 hrs/day |
| 06:21.22 | brlcad | it will obey the various tcl/tk _LIBRARY variables, but you shouldn't need to set them |
| 06:21.50 | brlcad | thanks, trying to get it up to 25 hours a day |
| 06:21.51 | Dr_Phreakenstein | iow, if they are set wrong, i should clear them, no? |
| 06:22.01 | brlcad | oh absolutely |
| 06:22.11 | Dr_Phreakenstein | look into something called polyphasic sleep |
| 06:22.12 | brlcad | they will override on pretty much every version of tcl |
| 06:23.03 | Dr_Phreakenstein | in a nutshell, trains your body to achieve REM in less time |
| 06:23.03 | Dr_Phreakenstein | sleep 20 minutes, wake for 3 hrs 40 minutes |
| 06:23.15 | Dr_Phreakenstein | total of 3 hrs sleep per night |
| 06:23.24 | brlcad | i've actually done that for short stints |
| 06:23.29 | brlcad | weekends screw it up though |
| 06:23.32 | Dr_Phreakenstein | they call it the uber-hacker schedule |
| 06:23.33 | Dr_Phreakenstein | yep |
| 06:23.59 | brlcad | as well as long coding stints |
| 06:24.03 | Dr_Phreakenstein | also, interactions with humans in "meatspace" can make it less practical |
| 06:24.38 | Dr_Phreakenstein | as in, you are awake all the time, but can only talk to people, go to store, etc, certain times of the day |
| 06:24.56 | Dr_Phreakenstein | i am considering it, how did it work for you? |
| 06:25.06 | Dr_Phreakenstein | besides above mentioned |
| 06:25.07 | brlcad | yeah, that already sucks to varying degrees with how I sleep/work now |
| 06:25.13 | Dr_Phreakenstein | :) |
| 06:25.16 | brlcad | there are upsides too though |
| 06:25.39 | brlcad | I moved into the city party because of that same issue actually, more things open much much later |
| 06:25.46 | Dr_Phreakenstein | did sig-other think you were insane? |
| 06:25.48 | Dr_Phreakenstein | true |
| 06:26.20 | Dr_Phreakenstein | i live in mid-smallish town (~40k ppl) |
| 06:26.39 | Dr_Phreakenstein | half of me wants to live in a loft above telco, |
| 06:26.50 | Dr_Phreakenstein | other half wants to be hermit in woods |
| 06:27.09 | brlcad | I find it easier to just sleep 3-5 hours a day, a lot easier to sustain than powernapping all the time |
| 06:27.37 | brlcad | particularly with a work schedule where folks are calling and stopping by when you'd be needing to nap |
| 06:28.09 | Dr_Phreakenstein | loft would be downtown portland, OR, over fictitious telco( there are none dt witha loft ovre them, and I could get u-DSL at 40 megs |
| 06:28.54 | brlcad | downtown portland sounds hella fun |
| 06:29.03 | Dr_Phreakenstein | have you been? |
| 06:29.06 | brlcad | nope |
| 06:29.17 | Dr_Phreakenstein | nothing like it |
| 06:29.20 | brlcad | had a buddy that lived there for a couple years |
| 06:29.35 | Dr_Phreakenstein | how did they make him leave? |
| 06:29.53 | Dr_Phreakenstein | tow cable in front, fire behind? |
| 06:30.09 | brlcad | heh |
| 06:30.25 | brlcad | job changed iirc, found a great job out east |
| 06:30.34 | Dr_Phreakenstein | no job is that good |
| 06:30.54 | Dr_Phreakenstein | rather starve in stumptown, than succeed anywhere else |
| 06:31.20 | Dr_Phreakenstein | stumptown, pdx, city of roses |
| 06:31.23 | brlcad | :) |
| 06:32.09 | Dr_Phreakenstein | downside is crazy laws, and nearly communist ideas everywhere, creaping into legislation |
| 06:32.27 | Dr_Phreakenstein | they want to install box in cars, charge by mile |
| 06:33.05 | brlcad | they've talked about doing that out here too |
| 06:33.12 | Dr_Phreakenstein | we actually have an (by comparison) active communist party, and green party |
| 06:33.24 | Dr_Phreakenstein | small problem; |
| 06:33.27 | Dr_Phreakenstein | hackers |
| 06:34.11 | Dr_Phreakenstein | also, it shoots self in foot by discouraging better fuel mileage the way gas tax does |
| 06:34.59 | Dr_Phreakenstein | and... with rising energy rates/demand, they want to actually *destroy* our hydro power |
| 06:35.09 | Dr_Phreakenstein | literally demolish dams |
| 06:35.19 | Dr_Phreakenstein | they forget that will flood portland |
| 06:35.31 | brlcad | that's a longer topic for another day :) |
| 06:35.39 | Dr_Phreakenstein | but it will save 4000 fish |
| 06:35.53 | brlcad | is compelled to get a lil more code done before naptime |
| 06:35.55 | Dr_Phreakenstein | sorry, fresh fury still here |
| 06:36.21 | brlcad | can tell |
| 06:36.26 | Dr_Phreakenstein | still compiling, will keep posted of progress |
| 06:36.29 | Dr_Phreakenstein | :) |
| 06:36.46 | brlcad | good luck on the compiling -- here as usual and will respond eventually if you have details |
| 06:36.59 | Dr_Phreakenstein | thanks |
| 06:37.29 | Dr_Phreakenstein | also, you are welcome here anytime you would like to venture out west |
| 06:37.45 | brlcad | for testing, you shouldn't have any env vars set that would override runtime behavior including all the *_LIBRARY* vars |

| 12:13.28 | appletizer | it's good :) |
| 12:13.34 | appletizer | centos is better though |
| 12:13.39 | appletizer | fedora is considered legacy |

| 12:14.21 | d-lo | Well I was checking out the FC10 VMware appliance last night.... gotta admit, the KDE looks *a lot* like Vista... dunno how I feel about that :/ |
| 12:14.45 | d-lo | appletizer: Why, in your opinion, is centos > fedora? |
| 12:14.56 | appletizer | depends on your goals |
| 12:15.11 | appletizer | for server type goals, centos provides better stability |
| 12:15.22 | d-lo | Workstation stuff. |
| 12:15.41 | appletizer | for workstation, then people tend to use fedora |
| 12:16.04 | appletizer | fedora has more bleeding edge packages |
| 12:16.13 | archivist | uses ubuntu due to EMC2 |
| 12:16.27 | d-lo | Trying to make a smart decision as to which OS i am going to use... don't feel like reinstalling/reconfiguring more than once. |
| 12:17.13 | appletizer | hehe honestly it doesn't really matter |
| 12:17.54 | d-lo | It kinda does, since each flavor has its own quirks, features and pitfalls. |
| 12:18.05 | appletizer | yeah that's what fuel unnecessary distro wars |
| 12:18.52 | appletizer | but there's always a shift in distro popularity anyway |
| 12:18.58 | appletizer | it used to be redhat once upon a time |
| 12:19.01 | appletizer | now it's ubuntu |
| 12:19.23 | d-lo | heh, not after popular :) If anything, I am anti-trendy. |
| 12:19.33 | d-lo | Its the 'Underdog complex' I suppose :) |
| 12:19.52 | appletizer | hehe underdog could be useful |
| 12:20.02 | appletizer | in that you're less exposed to malicious codings |
| 12:20.12 | appletizer | but the downside of that is you get less userbase exposure |
| 12:20.30 | d-lo | True enough. |
| 12:21.12 | appletizer | as long as you're using one of the more popular distros, you're fine :) anywhere between centos, fedora, rhel and ubuntu |
| 12:21.21 | archivist | I use ubuntu only because the EMC2 devs use that for the RTAT realtime, makes it easy for me to do cnc |
| 12:21.25 | appletizer | oh and freebsd/openbsd of course :) |

| 13:09.08 | d-lo | turns off the lights and hides. |
| 13:09.11 | d-lo | ;) |
| 13:09.26 | brlquestions | is there some way to sketch bezier passing closer to control points in BRL CAD ? |
| 13:11.32 | brlquestions | I converted the whole sketch on a single closed bezier that renders well on qcad after writing it by means of libdime |
| 13:12.01 | brlquestions | the problem is that bezier primitive in BRLCAD's sketch API rounds my corners too much ... |
| 13:12.21 | brlquestions | (sorry single closed NURBS or whatever ...) |
| 13:25.47 | d-lo | brlquestions: Gonna have to defer that to someone more knowledgeable than me :/ sorry! |

| 13:27.22 | brlquestions | OK, thanks ... suppose there's some representation problem dealing with libdime specs, qcad NURBS splines and bezier primitive in BRLCAD |
| 13:40.15 | brlcad | brlquestions: you can always add more control points, but I suspect the issue eis a translation problem |
| 13:42.51 | brlcad | either a bezier getting imported as a sketch incorrectly via dxf-g (remember, that is "brand new" code to bring in the 2D entities) or an entity getting imported with params for the wrong type of curve (like making a bspline as a bezier curve and vice versa) |

| 13:48.44 | brlcad | our sketch primitive really only supports bezier curves (though the logic for also supporting nurbs curves is pretty much done too) |

| 20:00.12 | ``Erik | uhm, I'd have to look at the change, but I BELIEVE that the jni asks for classes via strings, and he updated the classnames... so it should build just fine, you just have to define the symbols to be able to require it into a jvm |
| 20:01.57 | ``Erik | yeah, he just changed the values of some string constants to say "org/brlcad/numerics" instead of "mil/army/muvs/sim/math" |
| 20:01.59 | brlcad | starseeker: yeah, no -- but you would have to have jbrlcad to *use* librtserver |

| 20:03.39 | brlcad | dont' recall if john did that already |
| 20:04.29 | brlcad | long-term, it'll make sense to either merge in jbrlcad (if it's used a lot more, or at least the pieces required by librtserver), or move src/java over into jbrlcad |

| 20:21.27 | brlcad | starseeker: press isn't so much tied to the graphics as the graphics is tied to press |
| 20:22.24 | starseeker | brlcad: sorry, wasn't clear - trying to select an arb face to rotate strictly from the command line doesn't seem to be workable even with press |
| 20:22.27 | brlcad | press is a very old command, so you could press buttons on the overlay menu when you didn't have an input device |
| 20:22.54 | brlcad | if it's doable from the gui, it should be doable on the command line |
| 20:23.09 | brlcad | it's just rather unexpected as to how it works |
| 20:23.40 | starseeker | after all the pressing it pops up a GUI asking for a vertex to rotate around, and press doesn't seem to hit the OK in the dialog |
| 20:23.44 | brlcad | like if you wanted to select a face, it's something like: press "Edit Face 1234" |
| 20:24.08 | brlcad | sounds like the wrong press string |
| 20:24.53 | brlcad | that pop-up dialog would be something like CMD_MORE with typein where it prompts if there is an incomplete action |
| 20:25.05 | starseeker | mutters under his breath about archane user interface interaction techniques... |
| 20:25.29 | brlcad | it's a lot more intuitive if you turn on faceplate mode |
| 20:25.37 | starseeker | brlcad: ah |
| 20:25.46 | brlcad | the things you can press and the strings you can specify are usually directly spelled out there |
| 20:26.32 | brlcad | <PROTECTED> |
| 20:27.35 | starseeker | Is it worth all that just for eqn in the context of arb rotation? |
| 20:28.27 | starseeker | I suppose it's a more general issue for testing graphical mged functionality in the end... |
| 20:28.41 | brlcad | it it worth you understanding the details of how press works, probably :) |
| 20:28.51 | brlcad | for eqn, of course not |
| 20:29.01 | starseeker | growl... |
| 20:29.19 | starseeker | OK, I'll figure it out once I'm done grabbing low hanging fruit for testing |
| 20:29.46 | brlcad | that's a common (simple) command that is very useful in many contexts (particularly for users that want to script) |
| 20:29.56 | starseeker | wonders how to deal with testing the commands that flip up an editor... |
| 20:30.15 | brlcad | 'accept' and 'reject' for example are really just aliases for "press accept" and "press reject" |
| 20:30.53 | brlcad | notes the sore lack of "apply" that would be good to have so long as we have the modality |
| 20:31.19 | brlcad | starseeker: set EDITOR to something scriptable |
| 20:31.25 | starseeker | wants reset to work in the editing context as well as press reset, but supposes it conflicts with something... |
| 20:31.26 | brlcad | like 'cat' |
| 20:31.29 | starseeker | heh |
| 20:31.38 | brlcad | "reset" is also missing |
| 20:32.00 | starseeker | thought it was a libged bug at first when reset didn't work... |
| 20:32.46 | brlcad | there are other EDITOR tricks you can use -- just depends on the command being tested |
| 20:34.34 | starseeker | wonders where the pink pen on his desk came from... |
