00:05.35 epileg brlcad: here is the problem:
00:05.36 epileg backtrace.c:313: error: ‘else’ without a previous ‘if’
01:05.57 brlcad hm, I have no else on backtrace.c:313
01:12.02 starseeker brlcad: oh, that's me
01:39.58 starseeker what the bleep... sf password issue
01:45.21 starseeker I can't fix it - my password is being rejected
01:51.35 starseeker brlcad: can you commit?
01:52.02 starseeker tried to reset my password - can reach the website but the commits still fail
02:03.22 starseeker well, here's the diff anyway... http://paste.lisp.org/display/119160

05:50.24 yukonbob oh hai
05:51.33 yukonbob I've got a 101 question: I want a "tool" that I use later in CSG operations. How do I create this tool itself? I can create it, but when I try to clone/tra it, I'm told it's not a solid.
05:52.07 yukonbob I tried combinations and regions, no dice.
06:02.15 brlcad starseeker: there's exactly the indentation problem I was commenting on yesterday -- fortunately the logic was actually invalid this time, but had it not been invalid that would have been a superbly obscure bug injection
06:02.27 brlcad (in backtrace.c)
06:02.34 brlcad should fix your indentation
06:16.08 brlcad that said, the login problems are site-wide -- sf reset all passwords and an updated password will take a while to propagate
06:17.42 brlcad yukonbob: if you post the exact steps you're trying, it'll be easier to help but I suspect that you're not using the 'oed' command correctly (sed only works with primitives)
06:17.59 brlcad there's an extensive tutorial on oed on the website that starseeker wrote up a while back
06:18.02 brlcad good reading
06:20.35 yukonbob has that oed...
06:20.40 yukonbob *oed manual
06:21.07 yukonbob and Chapter II, and quick ref (which happened to have printed out in complete gibberish for me, except for imagages)
06:21.27 yukonbob ... but what I'm doing:
06:21.59 yukonbob I want a bar (arb8, like a popsicle stick), but with rounded ends.
06:22.30 yukonbob so I create another arb8, and difference it w/ an rcc.,
06:23.33 yukonbob then I think: ok - I want two copies of this, and I want one rotated on X axix 180 degrees.
06:23.49 yukonbob now.. is this something I ought to be doing w/ oed?
06:24.15 yukonbob I can't "sed" the obj (wrong type)
06:25.14 yukonbob ultimately, I think I want to rot one, tra both, difference them w/ end of "popsicle stick" and have that popsicle be a nice bar w/ rounded ends.
06:25.23 yukonbob hits oed...
06:25.57 yukonbob the tool I have could be as such:
06:26.07 yukonbob make circ rcc
06:26.13 yukonbob make box arb8
06:26.22 yukonbob [make sure geometry/orientation are good]
06:26.39 yukonbob c cutter box - circ
06:27.32 yukonbob now I want to select "cutter" and apply tra, then: c nicerStick stick - cutter
06:38.19 yukonbob yay, oed.
06:38.20 yukonbob ...though, I need to get some oed-fu together to make my regions behave atomically

12:15.28 CIA-53 BRL-CAD: 03jordisayol * r42749 10/brlcad/trunk/misc/debian/changelog: update debian changelog
14:00.22 CIA-53 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r42750 10/brlcad/trunk/src/libbu/backtrace.c: Whoops, compile then commit - fix if/else logic

14:02.48 starseeker brlcad: heh, actually I had the modeline activated on my home box but forgot to add it at work
14:02.59 starseeker will get it monday
14:06.13 CIA-53 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r42751 10/brlcad/branches/cmake/ (CMakeLists.txt src/other/step/CMakeLists.txt): One the path is non-default, make sure the default test fails subsequently, even in the same CMake run (in case a subproject sets it in the default case, like step)
15:18.28 CIA-53 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r42752 10/brlcad/branches/cmake/misc/CMake/CompilerFlags.cmake: Tweak the flags, add comments - don't include -w, misses the whole point
15:30.12 starseeker brlcad: looking at the comments for your gstabs+/ggdb3 logic, the comment suggests 10.4 and less would go with gdb3 but the logic seems to use gstabs+ for lower versions and ggdb3 for higher?
15:31.06 brlcad it's hard to keep them straight
15:31.56 brlcad iirc, I verified that gstabs+ worked with 10.4
15:32.14 brlcad implying gstabs+ should work for 10.[43210]
15:32.40 brlcad haven't tested as carefully what 10.5 and 10.6 want
15:32.53 CIA-53 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r42753 10/brlcad/branches/cmake/misc/CMake/CompilerFlags.cmake: Untested - try to duplicate configure.ac version based check for correct mac debug flag
15:33.41 brlcad moreover, I'm pretty sure 10.6 isn't happy with -ggdb3 .. :)
15:33.52 starseeker auugh
15:34.24 starseeker nods - not a big deal, I'll have to test that logic on monday anyway when I have a mac, so I imagine I'll find out then
15:34.45 starseeker what does the -W flag do without any argument?
15:35.02 starseeker is trying to find it in the gcc docs, but not having much luck yet
15:44.14 ``Erik additional warnings
15:44.53 ``Erik um, it looks like the proper name for it is now -Wextra
15:44.57 ``Erik http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Warning-Options.html
15:47.54 starseeker ah, that makes sense
15:47.57 starseeker adds Wextra
15:49.19 CIA-53 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r42754 10/brlcad/branches/cmake/misc/CMake/ (BRLCAD_Util.cmake CompilerFlags.cmake): Add Wextra to warning and strict flags
16:17.51 CIA-53 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r42755 10/brlcad/branches/cmake/ (29 files in 29 dirs): There we go - optionally turn off warnings for src/other globally (on by default) and add lots of strict flags
16:18.23 brlcad cool
16:18.42 starseeker yep, that's got it - itcl is quiet and librt fails :-P
16:20.04 CIA-53 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r42756 10/brlcad/branches/cmake/misc/CMake/BRLCAD_Util.cmake: whoops, remove debug printing
16:21.06 starseeker yow src/sig and libpc got noisy
16:50.01 CIA-53 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r42757 10/brlcad/branches/cmake/ (7 files in 4 dirs): Get librt building with strict, but need to check some of the changes with Keith - particularly vdot in opennurbs_ext.cpp - before merging into trunk
17:29.55 CIA-53 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r42758 10/brlcad/branches/cmake/ (8 files in 8 dirs):
17:29.55 CIA-53 BRL-CAD: Getting too cute for my own good - OK to copy the headers in order to duplicate
17:29.55 CIA-53 BRL-CAD: the install dir, but don't use them to compile BRL-CAD itself - if you want to
17:29.55 CIA-53 BRL-CAD: edit a header, the error message should report the location of the copy that
17:29.55 CIA-53 BRL-CAD: will be edited and checked into subversion, not the build-dir copy.
17:30.47 CIA-53 BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r42759 10/brlcad/branches/cmake/src/other/jove/CMakeLists.txt: Point jove to the source dir
