01:14.42 brlcad mm, awesome
01:14.56 brlcad have a 1:18 that I should dust off sometime
01:20.00 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r40415 10/brlcad/branches/cmake/ (CMakeLists.txt misc/CMake/FindTCL.cmake):
01:20.00 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: Tcl/Tk packages need to know where the *Config.sh files are, and have
01:20.00 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: exec-prefix set to avoid writing to places they don't have permission to write.
01:20.00 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: This MAY imply that there is no need to look for headers if the config files
01:20.00 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: aren't found, but need to think about that - right now that's the effect of the
01:20.01 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: FindTCL variables, so the include stuff in the section section can probably go
01:20.01 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: unless there's a need to have headers without config files.

03:17.07 starseeker blinks - tkhtml isn't installing libTkhtml...
03:17.33 louipc recent developments?
03:20.39 starseeker hmm? you mean what's happening?
03:22.43 starseeker brlcad: can you check me? it looks like tkhtml isn't installing its library
03:26.15 starseeker make a note of this page for tcl/tk package require path stuff: http://wiki.tcl.tk/1628
03:29.45 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r40416 10/brlcad/branches/cmake/ (CMakeLists.txt misc/CMake/ThirdParty.cmake): Start tweaking to make the default behavior of the CMake build identical to the 'auto-detection' of the autotools build. Need to think about enable-all and disable-all mechanisms, and write FindOPENNURBS and FindUTAHRLE
03:39.44 brlcad starseeker: hm
03:43.57 brlcad looks like you're right -- that's rather odd
03:44.24 brlcad ahh, right .. there's an existing install rule
03:44.27 brlcad overrides libtool
03:56.57 brlcad there, now it should install
03:57.09 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r40417 10/brlcad/trunk/src/other/tkhtml/Makefile.am: don't declare an install: rule since that will override libtool. instead, let tkhtml do what it was doing with a install-data-local: hook with the same deps.
03:59.00 brlcad that has subsequently diverged quite a ways away from tea

12:20.48 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r40418 10/brlcad/branches/cmake/src/other/tkhtml/ (. Makefile.am): Grab tkhtml install fix from trunk
12:32.47 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r40419 10/brlcad/branches/cmake/src/other/tkhtml/Makefile.am: Library is ending up in parent directory for tkhtml - alter where pkgIndex is looking.
12:34.08 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r40420 10/brlcad/trunk/src/other/tkhtml/Makefile.am: Make same change to pkgIndex in trunk
13:06.48 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r40421 10/brlcad/trunk/BUGS: menu invocation is not working again? hrm.
13:12.09 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r40422 10/brlcad/trunk/src/other/tkhtml/Makefile.am: you don't put slashes on a file join, they're space-separated and tcl does it's magic for the given platform
13:31.52 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r40423 10/brlcad/trunk/src/librt/primitives/bot/bot.c:
13:31.52 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: instead of doing a cheap ass compression manually ourselves, just call
13:31.52 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: rt_bot_condense() which does the same thing (but butter) and will even go a step
13:31.52 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: further to reclaim memory. add some sanity checking to make sure our bot
13:31.52 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: doesn't already have vertices with infinity values, and a final pass to make
13:31.53 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: sure our book-keeping is correct with no deleted vertices remaining after the
13:31.53 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: condense.
13:37.34 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r40424 10/brlcad/trunk/src/librt/primitives/poly/poly.c: should be no harm in calling rt_bot_face_fuse() instead of reallocating the face array blindly. this may even help if there are duplicate faces in the original pg data.
13:38.01 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r40425 10/brlcad/trunk/src/librt/primitives/bot/bot.c: document the detail that the bot data is condensed.
13:41.17 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r40426 10/brlcad/trunk/src/ (4 files in 2 dirs): no longer need to call rt_bot_condense() after rt_bot_vertex_fuse() since the result is now guaranteed to be condensed (given you want it that way anyways).
13:50.44 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r40427 10/brlcad/branches/cmake/src/other/tkhtml/Makefile.am: grab fix for pkgIndex.tcl from trunk
13:57.30 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r40428 10/brlcad/branches/cmake/misc/CMake/FindSCL.cmake: Whoops, make the FindSCL file slightly closer to sane
14:38.03 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03erikgreenwald * r40429 10/brlcad/trunk/src/librt/primitives/bot/bot.c: change infinity (a c++ symbol) to INFINITY (a number) for subtraction...
14:52.04 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r40430 10/brlcad/branches/cmake/ (4 files in 2 dirs): Getting closer to full-featured src/other building, but the FIND_PATH/CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX problem from FindTCL.cmake is proving general. Need some sort of solution to that before we're really ready.
14:57.45 brlcad oops, not a c++ symbol, but it was a vect_t so no go for -
14:59.19 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r40431 10/brlcad/trunk/src/librt/primitives/bot/bot.c: should be the [X] element of infinity
15:14.46 ``Erik on both my mac and fbsd boxen, "infinity" is is only defined in c++ <limits>, as a template method for "fundamental numerics" or something
15:14.50 ``Erik *shrug*
15:17.01 brlcad it's a var in that function
15:17.10 brlcad overthinking it :)
15:24.10 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r40432 10/brlcad/trunk/src/librt/primitives/bot/bot.c: avoid shadowing the c++ function, use 'deleted' instead of 'infinity'
16:25.50 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r40433 10/brlcad/branches/cmake/ (4 files in 2 dirs):
16:25.50 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: Sometimes it really is simple - CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX is now set to empty string
16:25.50 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: at the beginning of the CMake process every time, so the Find results all come
16:25.50 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: out as if it were never set in the first place - and at the end the same
16:25.50 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: mechanisms that originally set it also restore it.
16:46.18 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r40434 10/brlcad/branches/cmake/misc/CMake/FindTERMLIB.cmake: kill the termlib debug message

19:48.41 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 03bob1961 * r40437 10/brlcad/trunk/src/tclscripts/archer/CombEditFrame.tcl: Added methods for appendRow, insertRow, deleteRow, setOperator and setKeypointVC. This functionality is accessible via right-click menu.

20:06.22 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: point cloud bu_list, the forward pointer was being referenced after it was
20:06.22 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: freed. The changes follow the conventions for freeing a bu_list indicated within
20:06.22 CIA-88 BRL-CAD: 'bu.h' and the function bu_list_free.
