IRC log for #brlcad on 20120614

00:11.59 starseeker ah, finally - the SIGGRAPH advance program
00:24.38 brlcad starseeker: great
00:25.30 brlcad andrei_: that's not so much a crash as a graceful abort
00:25.48 brlcad the stack trace in that log should show where it's halting
00:27.15 andrei_ hm
00:27.35 andrei_ I have like a thousand bomb logs
00:27.37 andrei_ hold on
00:29.22 andrei_ right, deleted all and rerun
00:30.29 andrei_ this looks like a gdb output
00:30.45 brlcad it is
00:32.04 andrei_ if I m correct
00:32.07 andrei_ this is where it breaks
00:32.09 andrei_ <PROTECTED>
00:32.24 andrei_ just a moment , I ll see what is there
00:32.25 brlcad that is not :)
00:33.25 andrei_ the issue clearly is that the server isn't starting.
00:34.06 brlcad maybe
00:34.16 brlcad or the client is attempting to connect to a server that hasn't yet started
00:34.22 brlcad or is still in the process of starting
00:34.47 andrei_ in that case, I would tend to "blame" the shell script
00:36.02 andrei_ the wait command in the shell script shouldn't have waited for the server process to successfully start tho?
00:37.03 andrei_ just a moment, I ll take a closer look at some stuff in tpkg.
00:45.35 andrei_ The error was caused by a client attempting to connect to a inexistent(not yet started server)
00:46.18 andrei_ solved the issue by adding a sleep 5. Shouldn't it be a better solution than the sleep? Technically the server process doesn't stop so that s why( I think) wait was failing.
00:51.07 andrei_ regarding the output issue. Erik mentioned that I should output the total number of packages to stdout rather than return it. I don't know how to determine shell to "selective output" to stdout so I thought of this:
00:51.57 andrei_ to suppress the server output ( since it s not useful for the moment) and to redirect client stdout to a logfile
00:52.10 andrei_ then grep only one line( the one with total package number) from the file
00:52.18 andrei_ Does this approach seem viable?
00:55.11 andrei_ oh, adjusted the sleep to 1 so the script doesn't take ages.

13:49.50 d_rossberg src/conv/asc/asc2dsp.c:56 MSVC doesn't like the MAXSHORT as it is already defined somewhere (couldn't find where)
13:50.06 d_rossberg renaming it to MAX_SHORT is ok
13:50.26 d_rossberg however, it's value looks strange
13:52.11 d_rossberg how about using USHRT_MAX?
13:52.26 ``Erik #ifndef MAXSHORT ?
13:54.00 d_rossberg this works too
13:54.43 d_rossberg (but i still don't know what MAXSHORT is ;)

13:55.54 ``Erik hm, asc2dsp expects an unsigned there
13:56.42 ``Erik UINT16_MAX or USHRT_MAX might be the better
13:57.34 d_rossberg yes, the current value is definitely to high
13:58.19 ``Erik current value is a 32b
13:59.38 d_rossberg it's UINT_MAX
