01:56.40 d-lo lol, I wonder what the 64->128 bit switch will bring when it happens :)
01:56.44 d-lo night all

02:50.23 Ralith probably less drama
02:50.28 Ralith I'd at least hope everyone's learned their lesson
02:51.41 louipc 128 bit?
02:54.23 Ralith yes.
03:01.23 starseeker <snort> I'd be surprised
03:01.48 starseeker wonders if they could simulate a 128 bit arch and test it...
03:24.11 Ralith very slowly, sure
03:24.29 starseeker "creates" his account on ohloh and bemusedly watches his kudo ranking drop to 1
03:44.55 starseeker snorts - looks like they don't watch for commits in branches
03:45.07 starseeker so much for all the cmake commits :-P
03:47.54 starseeker wow - this is a COOL widget: http://www.simile-widgets.org/timeline/
03:56.19 starseeker must play with that if/when he ever figures out how to do any kind of web programming

07:13.33 CIA-42 BRL-CAD: 03d_rossberg * r40080 10/rt^3/trunk/ (TODO cmake/FindBRLCAD.cmake): fixed CMake policy CMP0004 problem in FindBRLCAD
08:21.24 kanzure why is there a WriteSphere in src/conv/step/BRLCADWrapper.cpp ?
08:21.35 kanzure can't it be represented as a Brep like everything else (through WriteBrep)?
08:23.10 kanzure surely there are other objects (like cylinders) that there are mappings to brlcad commands for (like sphere to sph) so i don't think preservation is the reason
08:23.16 kanzure is there another reason i'm missing out on?

12:26.11 starseeker kanzure: opennurbs has its own sphere primitive, which (at need) will be a brep via internal conversion routines
12:27.35 starseeker eventually there'll probably be more of those "NURBS primitive" types - why store the whole brep if you can request its brep form from the library on demand?

13:29.32 csanyipal Hi,
13:29.51 csanyipal I have just installed brlcad on Gentoo, but can't run mged. Why?
13:31.42 *** join/#brlcad cosurgi (~cosurgi@atak.bl.pg.gda.pl)
13:37.38 d-lo Yikes, my boost libs installed on my system are circa December, 2006. lol
13:44.15 csanyipal OK, I must to setup PATH.

14:21.30 ``Erik yeh, I had two usernames to tie together in ohloh and lost all my kudo rating when I registered, sucks
14:30.23 d_rossberg is there any need for a x64 version of the brlcad.dll e.g. for a Pro-E plugin?
14:44.28 starseeker d_rossberg: dunno - good question
14:55.56 _psilva there's a dll eh?
15:01.49 d_rossberg for external programs to access brl-cad databases
15:16.27 starseeker d_rossberg: I don't expect any of the cmake stuff in the branch would work on Windows, but I am curious if the REGEX stuff for timestamping runs - have you had a look at it lately?
15:27.31 d_rossberg starseeker: i had a look at it on linux, i'll have a look at the regex stuff on windows - but not today (because of Feierabend ;-)
15:27.45 starseeker d_rossberg: no problem :-)
15:27.52 starseeker (hopefully it worked on Linux?)
15:27.56 starseeker er, nevermind

17:32.29 CIA-42 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r40084 10/brlcad/trunk/BUGS: Hmm. Copy/paste may have problems on Windows Vista?
17:45.58 kanzure starseeker: i see. so it wasn't something that was necessary really? just a convenience?
17:56.57 starseeker kanzure: essentially
