17:50.15 brlcad howdy hippieindamakin8
17:50.26 hippieindamakin8 hey brlcad
17:50.51 hippieindamakin8 i was just wondering how would i test the routine
17:51.06 brlcad which routine?
17:51.40 hippieindamakin8 the bot to nmg
17:54.41 hippieindamakin8 http://dpaste.com/42430/
17:54.59 brlcad ahh, cool
17:55.19 hippieindamakin8 any pointers ?
17:55.20 brlcad probably the easiest is to just write a little driver test application
17:56.13 brlcad that function takes an rt_bot_internal, which is obtained through an rt_db_internal, which can be obtained by doing a db_lookup() iirc
17:56.21 brlcad hunts for an example
17:56.41 hippieindamakin8 ohk
18:00.11 brlcad okay, looks like madant actually has an nice little test for libpc work
18:00.18 brlcad look in src/util/pc_test.c
18:01.07 brlcad it's doing a couple things you don't need, but much of it applies
18:01.27 hippieindamakin8 ohk thanks :)
18:01.55 brlcad you'll call db_open() instead of wdb_open() (first is for read/write, the second is write-only)
18:01.57 hippieindamakin8 btw i would want to start working on this problem implement a routine to convert an NMG NURBS object to the newer
18:01.57 hippieindamakin8 <PROTECTED>
18:01.57 hippieindamakin8 <PROTECTED>
18:02.36 brlcad after you get a directory pointer from db_lookup(), you'll pass that dp to rt_db_get_internal()
18:03.27 hippieindamakin8 checks that out
18:04.26 brlcad once you have that internal pointer (ip) ...
18:04.52 brlcad struct rt_bot_internal *bot_ip = (struct rt_bot_internal *)ip->idb_ptr; RT_BOT_CK_MAGIC(bot_ip);
18:05.11 brlcad that'll convert it to a bot and validate it
18:06.25 brlcad rather, validate that it's actually a 'bot' object, not validate the bot data itself
18:08.04 hippieindamakin8 brlcad, i ll get back to u in few moments

18:51.47 starseeker poolio: I don't suppose there's a good tutorial on setting up dzen and conky anywhere?
18:52.07 starseeker is looking at a rather imposing process to get this working "right"
