| 18:28.39 | starseeker | my personal site is just a grab bag ATM |

| 18:45.13 | brlcad | starseeker: enigma lists *configure* in distcleanfiles, not configure.ac |
| 18:45.18 | brlcad | you said configure.ac |
| 18:45.18 | starseeker | ah |
| 18:45.22 | starseeker | whooops |
| 18:45.52 | brlcad | dreeves__: yes there are, but did you have a particular question -- glad to just explain things ;) |
| 18:47.24 | starseeker | smacks self upside the head |
| 18:47.41 | CIA-40 | BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r34029 10/brlcad/trunk/src/other/step/Makefile.am: Add configure to DISTCLEANFILES. Previous commit message was incorrected - added configure.ac to EXTRA_DIST files, NOT DISTCLEANFILES. |
| 18:48.14 | dreeves__ | I guess I'm just toying with the idea of maybe getting involved in maybe helping out with that.... Was really look to see if you had mockups of what the new gui might look like with some possible flows...Also was interested in how the gui would interact with the service i.e. the gui knowing which parameters were editable or are you all thinking that would be just built into the gui itself |
| 18:49.38 | dreeves__ | I could probably go on and on but I thought I would get educated with what the team had done first before I just started hammering everyone with a million questions |
| 18:49.45 | brlcad | dreeves__: ah, then should definitely also take a look at this: |
| 18:50.01 | brlcad | http://brlcad.org/design/ |
| 18:50.10 | dreeves__ | cool |
| 18:50.11 | dreeves__ | thanks |
| 18:50.26 | brlcad | the gui link in particular includes an extensive gui interaction mock-up |
| 18:51.33 | brlcad | it was intentionally made application agnostic and doesn't show CAD interface aspects yet, but the same basic ideas of localized modelessness, universal command access, pervasive drag and drop, context panels, etc |
| 18:54.17 | dreeves__ | Just so I'm clear this is intended to be an mged replacement correct? |
| 18:59.09 | brlcad | long term, yes |
| 18:59.34 | dreeves__ | umm what would it be in the short term? |
| 18:59.50 | dreeves__ | or are you just saying it would take a while to replace mged? |

| 19:00.57 | brlcad | dreeves__: the latter |
| 19:01.03 | madant | dreeves__ : it would take a while |
| 19:01.06 | madant | oops :D |
| 19:01.06 | dreeves__ | ah ok |
| 19:01.46 | brlcad | dreeves__: so if you're interested, here's the big picture as I see it |
| 19:02.04 | dreeves__ | ok? |
| 19:02.05 | CIA-40 | BRL-CAD: 03Starseeker 07http://brlcad.org * r1232 10/wiki/STEP: Need to make a step wiki page - just rough out some categories for now - flesh out later |
| 19:02.48 | brlcad | mged's great in many ways, *lots* of functionality, powerful interface, it's been doing what it's doing forever but it's incredibly difficult to learn and takes a long time to master |
| 19:03.19 | brlcad | that said, it really is *filled* with functionality, hundreds of staff-years of effort that would take even a big team many years to replicate |
| 19:03.27 | brlcad | so we really can't afford to do that |
| 19:03.56 | brlcad | on top of that, there is a ton of other functionality in brl-cad that many people don't know about or don't know how to use (the other 399 applications) |
| 19:04.30 | brlcad | basically, our usability needs to improve in a major way |
| 19:04.48 | brlcad | but not such that we just lose everything that has been invested, therein enters LIBGED |
| 19:05.25 | brlcad | libged is a refactoring project that has been going on for almost a year now to take most of the best aspects of mged out of mged, and putting that logic into a library so it can be more readily reused |
| 19:05.55 | brlcad | libged by itself, though, obviously won't make usability any better, for that we need a better gui |
| 19:06.37 | brlcad | on that front enters a refactoring prototype that was started several years ago -- archer; basically mged's gui rewritten but still using mged's geometry management and command functionality under the hood |
| 19:06.48 | brlcad | also enter last year's gsoc project to start a completely new gui interface |
| 19:07.38 | brlcad | what remains is the infrastructure to tie the gui to the backend while also pulling in "the rest" of brl-cad under that same interface |
| 19:08.08 | brlcad | that is where the geometry service and geometry engine are at, they tie the front to the back |
| 19:09.31 | brlcad | the intent of the geometry engine is to modularize the geometry management API, provide better type encapsulation and geometry management features similar to other CAD kernels like ACIS or Granite |
| 19:10.21 | brlcad | the geometry engine basically wraps libbu, libbn, librt, libwdb, and the new libged into a clean API |
| 19:10.31 | dreeves__ | Yeah I grabbed the latest rt^3 package and got it to compile but seems like all the apps are just outputting timing type of things I'm sure I'm missing something but I didn't see any guis |
| 19:11.40 | brlcad | dreeves__: the rt^3 module hasn't really been cleaned up and unified yet, so you're sort of seeing a little of the gui work that happened during gsoc, some of the GE work, and a lot of the GS work |
| 19:12.14 | brlcad | and the three don't yet play with each other much given they're all being developed in parallel |
| 19:12.23 | dreeves__ | oh ok that's fine I just wanted to see what had been done so far |
| 19:12.30 | brlcad | (as they really are three independent projects) |
| 19:12.37 | dreeves__ | ok |
| 19:13.31 | dreeves__ | I just flipped through some of the gui design I take it that is more of a concept type thing, survey of different style of guis if you will |
| 19:13.37 | brlcad | so project-wise related to improving the interface, there's BREP support, LIBGED refactoring, GE design, GS implementation, and the GUI itself |
| 19:14.02 | brlcad | dreeves__: it's not a survey, it's an actual interaction prototype |
| 19:14.28 | dreeves__ | oh I must doing something wrong I will go back and look at it again |
| 19:14.40 | brlcad | what's missing is how that would actually look and act with a 3D context, geometry actions, object palettes, etc |
| 19:14.56 | brlcad | this: http://brlcad.org/design/gui/ioe_proto_final.mov |
| 19:15.04 | dreeves__ | ok |
| 19:15.33 | brlcad | it is a survey of different *interactions* you might encounter in the gui, just not multiple guis |
| 19:16.33 | brlcad | the important aspect is how tasks are managed, how contexts are managed, command interaction, how the overall menu works, the clipboard, etc |
| 19:17.09 | madant | dreeves__: are u already an open source contributor ? |
| 19:17.57 | dreeves__ | no |
| 19:18.27 | brlcad | your name is very familiar |

| 19:37.18 | brlcad | ARL funds the cad team in more specific ways obviously to work on enhancements |
| 19:38.06 | brlcad | thinks who else gsiwise is still around |

| 19:46.37 | dreeves__ | so does your cad team basically work at what use to be brl? |
| 19:46.53 | dreeves__ | I thought Lee Butler lead the cad team did he leave? |
| 19:47.05 | brlcad | he left |
| 19:47.23 | dreeves__ | Yeah I wend through that list the other night know quite a few people on it |
| 19:48.21 | brlcad | Lee is still around, but he went to work on his phd for a year then came back to lead the modeling team and just recently moved onto another team |
| 19:48.58 | dreeves__ | oh ok |
| 19:49.00 | brlcad | still at the same place, maybe even the same building |
| 19:49.17 | dreeves__ | I will have to send ed and email |
| 19:49.34 | brlcad | he knows :) |
| 19:49.40 | dreeves__ | ok |
| 19:49.44 | dreeves__ | :) |

| 19:53.59 | brlcad | he thinks he's ready to retire :) |
| 19:54.23 | dreeves__ | LOL!! :) |
| 19:55.40 | dreeves__ | So what's up with the work on Java? |
| 19:56.27 | brlcad | wonders if dreeves__ notices that he has other messages.. :) |
| 19:56.47 | brlcad | john anderson started that just playing around a couple years ago |
| 19:56.54 | brlcad | s/couple/many/ |
| 19:57.11 | brlcad | got a simple ray query working, and it sat for a while |
| 19:57.39 | brlcad | then another big java project started at arl, and it revived some attention on that project |
| 19:57.44 | dreeves__ | Just noticed sorry |

| 20:49.13 | ysselive | dreeves__: btw, more you may not have seen -- screenie of the "Archer" prototype interface I mentioned -- http://brlcad.org/tmp/archer.png |
| 20:49.26 | ysselive | Archer is the test bed for most of the LIBGED refactoring |
| 20:49.59 | ysselive | and will likely merge with MGED at some point (replacing mged's gui) as an intermediate step until the other new GUI is ready |

| 21:18.10 | starseeker | brlcad: config.status is in both EXTRA_DIST and DISTCLEANFILES in the tcl Makefile.am - is that intentional? |

| 21:19.48 | brlcad | not that they have much to do with each other .. being a distcleanfile doesn't mean it'll be included in the dist |
| 21:19.56 | starseeker | right |
| 21:20.06 | starseeker | the failure on distcheck has something to do with it though |

| 21:20.43 | ``Erik | the latter, yeah |
| 21:20.46 | brlcad | ah |
| 21:20.49 | brlcad | then I caught it |

| 21:22.26 | starseeker | brlcad: Any prior knowledge of the stepmod project on sourceforge? |
| 21:24.17 | starseeker | Hmm, cool, NIST made some code for controlling a machining center using the STEP-NC spec |
| 21:24.28 | brlcad | starseeker: yeah, prior guilty knowledge, yes |
| 21:24.33 | starseeker | heh |
| 21:24.42 | starseeker | anything useful there? |
| 21:26.57 | brlcad | probably, but it was heavily biased towards lifecycle aspects of step |
| 21:27.12 | brlcad | MUCH of step has little/nothing to do with geometry |
| 21:27.41 | brlcad | hinted at by geometry starting at application protocol two *hundred* and three .. |

| 21:29.02 | brlcad | starseeker: one interesting piece they do is ap28 though .. that didn't exist until recently |
| 21:29.07 | madant | huh |
| 21:29.21 | starseeker | ah, nuts - he's going GPLv3 |
| 21:29.25 | brlcad | (AP28 is STEP-XML) |
| 21:29.30 | starseeker | ah, cool :-) |
| 21:29.53 | brlcad | problem there, though, being no CAD software dumps that out that I'm aware of yet |
| 21:30.01 | brlcad | so not a high priority |
| 21:30.07 | starseeker | true. |
| 21:30.24 | brlcad | still have to deal with ap21 files |
| 21:30.27 | starseeker | ponders using it as a good BRL-CAD archival output format, but that's also low priority... |
| 21:32.21 | brlcad | looks like it's a new project |
| 21:32.30 | brlcad | there is no code to it other than scl |
| 21:32.42 | brlcad | so you could check it out and see what mods he's made |
| 21:33.05 | starseeker | maybe, but since it's public domain code he's allowed to make his modes GPLv3 |
| 21:33.10 | brlcad | wow, very new .. last commit was just yesterday |
| 21:33.20 | brlcad | and that was r2 |
| 21:33.29 | starseeker | could ask him, I suppose |
| 21:33.40 | brlcad | i mean he's done nothing thusfar |
| 21:33.41 | brlcad | even to scl |
| 21:33.46 | starseeker | ah, ok |
| 21:34.21 | starseeker | can't find a license on the stepmod stuff |
| 21:35.27 | evilcad | there is no stepmod stuff |
| 21:35.43 | starseeker | http://stepmod.cvs.sourceforge.net/stepmod/ |
| 21:35.44 | evilcad | he's not done anything yet |

| 21:51.38 | starseeker | Hey ``Erik: http://sourceforge.net/projects/e7bfc/ |
| 21:52.15 | starseeker | windows only, unfortunately |
| 22:05.22 | CIA-40 | BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r34034 10/brlcad/trunk/src/other/ (tcl/Makefile.am tk/Makefile.am): config.status doesn't belong in EXTRA_DIST, was breaking make distcheck. |
| 22:21.39 | starseeker | confound it |
| 22:23.59 | starseeker | the distcheck tarball is pulling in expparse.c and expscan.c even though they are included in DISTCLEANFILES in the Makefile.am! That's apparently enough to stop bison from running, and since expparse.h is NOT being snarfed in as well the build fails |
| 22:25.38 | starseeker | brlcad: I'm not familiar yet with the distcheck rules for tarball building are implemented - is there a chance that some stray cp *.c command in there somewhere is pulling in files despite their being on the DISTCLEAN list? |

| 23:11.35 | evilcad | starseeker: again, being in distcleanfiles has nothing to do with being included in the dist -- it's just a list of what to try to remove if someone runs distclean |
| 23:12.23 | evilcad | those .c files are included because they are either listed as extra_dist and/or because it figured out that they need to be included because they are .l/.y generated |
