00:05.47 brlcad problem is apparently at least one of those lines
00:06.16 starseeker hmm
00:06.21 brlcad the tcl backtrace should say which
00:06.50 starseeker is it just my system or does someone else see it?
00:07.06 starseeker will track it down after merging updates
00:07.16 brlcad don't get it here
00:12.43 ``Erik opening files is for wussies
00:29.03 CIA-40 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r33769 10/brlcad/trunk/src/other/ (357 files in 37 dirs): Update tcl/tk to version 8.5.6 - attempted to retain fixes to regex.h for build issues and tclIO.c for exceeding maxint
00:29.21 starseeker now the check - fresh checkout and build
00:29.37 ``Erik kept meaning to upgrade tcl/tk in the repo, but kept having other crap to do :D
00:37.04 smurfette who wants to listen to me dj and request music? :D
00:40.19 CIA-40 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r33770 10/brlcad/trunk/src/other/tcl/generic/tclIO.c: Oops - that's maxint, not maxInt

03:05.40 starseeker brlcad: seems to for pipe
03:06.00 starseeker where are you seeing failure?
03:16.43 starseeker brlcad: how does one get gdb going on archer? or some other debug tool?
04:07.42 brlcad starseeker: archer would actually be prime for the tcl debugger from activestate (non-free, commercial), but you can also debug via running tclsh through gdb .. or using print statements
04:08.06 brlcad recommends the latter
04:08.35 brlcad puts "HERE1" ... etc as you search closer and closer

05:01.00 CIA-40 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r33771 10/brlcad/trunk/ (NEWS src/tclscripts/mged/edit_solid.tcl):
05:01.00 CIA-40 BRL-CAD: and here I thought I'd already tested and committed this fix for 7.14.0 but
05:01.00 CIA-40 BRL-CAD: apparently never did. this is a fix that makes the Primitive Editor work again
05:01.00 CIA-40 BRL-CAD: without popping up an error about the switch statement having a problem. it's a
05:01.00 CIA-40 BRL-CAD: stupidity in switch that can't handle comments between the case blocks. someone
05:01.00 CIA-40 BRL-CAD: reported this but I can't find a reference to it anywhere atm.

07:02.55 CIA-40 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r33772 10/brlcad/trunk/TODO: looks like the mged Open->File bug is fixed, but it still fails to initialize mged something awful.
07:05.54 CIA-40 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r33773 10/brlcad/trunk/TODO: cliff has the task of exhaustive mged testing close enough to done to call it done as a release task.

07:34.48 CIA-40 BRL-CAD: fix some of the initialization and shutdown problems including the qray vls one.
07:34.48 CIA-40 BRL-CAD: the problem was a set of pointers in the gedp that were getting freed/closed but
07:34.48 CIA-40 BRL-CAD: weren't being set to null so the second use of that gedp erroneously would try
07:34.49 CIA-40 BRL-CAD: to use the old pointer (and crash).

17:54.04 starseeker eyes RamDebugger http://www.compassis.com/ramdebugger/
17:54.25 starseeker brlcad: Is that tool not terribly helpful for us?
17:55.08 brlcad never tried that one
17:56.41 brlcad frankly just haven't really needed a tcl/tk debugger to date given the relatively low frequency of tcl-specific errors and the speed at which I can usually track down the few tcl-specific ones using manual methods
17:56.49 brlcad but give it a try
17:56.53 brlcad it won't help with mged
17:57.01 brlcad at least I'd be surprised
17:57.15 brlcad archer is another story, though
18:06.19 starseeker is interested for archer
18:07.18 starseeker and rtwizard, for that matter...
18:07.46 starseeker brlcad: Would the plan be to put archer's UI logic on top of the "tcl in C" setup that mged has?
18:08.29 brlcad yep
18:08.29 starseeker growl... I can get wish running RamDebugger, but bwish is another story.
18:08.40 starseeker brlcad: Ah, no matter then
18:08.59 brlcad bwish is just wish with a bunch of initialization
18:09.09 brlcad you could do the initialization manually if you had to
18:10.08 starseeker would need to get tile, tklib, and a couple other tcl/tk packages into bwish, probably...
18:10.49 starseeker although tile should be in there, come to think of it
18:11.02 starseeker yep hmm
18:12.47 starseeker the others are there too
18:12.52 starseeker oh, I see it now...
18:12.58 starseeker Error in startup script: unknown option "-sticky"
18:31.16 starseeker wonders what itk_initialize wants now that it didn't want before...

23:01.47 starseeker brlcad: our Itcl and Itk are reporting version 3.4, but I only see 3.3 on the website - do we have a dev version?
23:02.45 *** join/#brlcad Elrohir (n=kvirc@p5B14EB2E.dip.t-dialin.net)
23:11.14 brlcad i believe so
23:11.23 brlcad pretty much 3.3 plus a couple fixes
23:11.28 starseeker hmm
23:12.04 starseeker is a tad puzzled as to what could cause RamDebugger to fail in bwish
23:29.31 starseeker wait - perhaps it's incompatible with itk??
23:31.51 starseeker blinks
23:34.14 starseeker brlcad: the pkgIndex.tcl file in /usr/brlcad-svn/lib/itcl3.4 lists /usr/brlcad-svn/lib/itcl3.4/libitcl3.4.a as the file to load, but it's actually at /usr/brlcad-svn/lib/libitcl3.4.a
23:35.14 starseeker come to think of it, archer is failing with unknown option "-menu" and RamDebugger is failing with unknown option "-sticky"
23:36.43 starseeker throws in some symbolic links...
23:39.32 starseeker nuts - now it says invalid ELF header
23:40.36 starseeker growl
