19:09.50 caen23 d_rossberg: i don't think VRahul's version of brlcad is outdated, but i don't understand why he removed a lot of lines, including the gci contributions
19:11.29 brlcad caen23: question about a couple of your recent commits
19:12.02 brlcad curious why you made eto's V a vect_t? that come up on something?
19:12.59 brlcad V for most primitives is a vertex (i.e., a point), which consequently works as a vector from the origin but is slightly different semantically
19:13.17 caen23 let me check something
19:15.07 brlcad I could see someone passing a point_t to a bn_*() function expecting a vect_t and llvm complaining
19:16.08 brlcad but that'd beg a question of whether the bn function should be using vect's or points and whether the callee should be casting (as they are equivalent types)
19:16.36 caen23 sorry, i was wrong. i got some things mixed up, i'll revert it now
19:16.51 brlcad not a big deal, was more curious
19:17.16 brlcad r54136 is more of an issue since that affects performance
19:17.48 brlcad removing the 'inline' one bu_bitv_shift() is no good.. the fix should have been a cmake change to a non-warning form of inline
19:18.36 caen23 while we're at it, i also changed rt_tgc_internal.v to a point_t from a vect_t because all other v's are points. i asked before changing it, but didn't get any answer. should i revert that, too?
19:20.24 caen23 regarding inline, i don't understand what "non-warning form of inline" means. something like _inline_ instead of inline?
19:26.34 Notify 03GCI: Daniel Rossberg: Find and Fix 5 spelling mistakes in at least 40 different files (#2) - You should work with the head revision in the SVN repository Which is a 7.22.1 (as you said you did in "SVN Checkout"). Do you use TortoiseSVN? http://www.google-melange.com/gci/task/view/google/gci2012/8093205
19:29.41 brlcad caen23: so you made tgc a point and eto a vect ? :)
19:30.22 caen23 yes
19:33.39 caen23 ugh, i think i got confused because in eto_specific, it's a vect (always has been) and i thought they should match
19:36.14 Notify 03GCI: V Rahul: Find and Fix 5 spelling mistakes in at least 40 different files (#2) - Yes Yes, I use TortoiseSVN. I will download the latest version. Is it available on http://brlcad.org/wiki/Deuces ? The "Download our BRL-CAD Virtual Machine (VM) image " link takes me to the 7.22.0 download page. http://www.google-melange.com/gci/task/view/google/gci2012/8093205

19:46.55 brlcad point sounds right to me, it is a point, no?
19:47.31 caen23 tgc? now it is
19:48.19 brlcad i mean the intent of the field, not the type itself
19:51.07 d_rossberg VRahul: the virtual machine is good too - if you make a "svn update" there you get the current head version
19:53.10 caen23 brlcad: i think i messed that up, too. it's supposed to be a vect
20:01.45 brlcad caen23: what do you mean?
20:02.06 brlcad d_rossberg: happy new year!
20:02.25 caen23 v is supposed to be a vect in rt_tgc_internal, and i changed it to point
20:02.35 brlcad and Froehliche Weinachten
20:03.12 brlcad caen23: what makes you think it's supposed to be a vect?
20:03.36 caen23 it's passed to the VADD2 macro which adds to vect's
20:03.43 caen23 two* vect's
20:04.02 brlcad the vmath macros are almost entirely type-agnostic
20:04.56 brlcad a point is interchangeable with a vector with a homogeneous zero-centered coordinate system
20:05.19 brlcad so that wouldn't indicate it one way or the other -- the comments and/or meaning of the field is what matters
20:05.42 brlcad that field is the position of the tgc, just like it is for all?most other primitives so point_t sounds right to me
20:06.28 d_rossberg waves: Einen guten Rutsch!
20:07.46 caen23 brlcad: in rtgeom.h, rt_tgc_internal is not commented
20:14.26 brlcad so the place it's used (the 'in' command) would be the remaining documentation and that is requested as the position of the cone
20:16.59 caen23 so that was alright
20:17.16 *** part/#brlcad VRahul (7aa4b0e6@gateway/web/freenode/ip.122.164.176.230)
20:21.04 caen23 about the inline issue, i don't understand what "non-warning form of inline" means. something like _inline_ instead of inline? i think it was complaining about the other two inline functions in the file being static, and since bu_bitv_shift used them, and was used outside the file, they weren't really static
20:33.47 *** join/#brlcad luca79 (~luca@2.192.77.162)
20:35.44 brlcad yeah
21:08.25 brlcad caen23: do you have the exact warning it gave you?
21:09.03 brlcad it's true about it trying to inline a static function (and we're okay with that)
21:09.17 brlcad and it technically should be okay because it should be inlining the static functions too
21:09.43 brlcad we could just as well roll those two statis up into the guts of bu_bitv_shift() but separate them out for ease of understanding
21:10.58 caen23 i don't have the message right now, but i have the llvm i used and i can build with inline to get it back

21:49.42 Notify 03GCI: V Rahul: Find and Fix 5 spelling mistakes in at least 40 different files (#2) - Major difference Is there a major difference between 7.22.0 and 7.22.1? Unfortunately, I'm not able to download the 7.22.1 due to low available bandwidth. If my computing knowledge is right, there wouldn't be a great difference between 7.22.0 and 7.22.1.... http://www.google-melange.com/gci/task/view/google/gci2012/8093205
22:02.08 brlcad caen23: where's the external linkage? floor_ilog2() should also be static inline
22:03.14 brlcad it's an order of operations issue -- if floor_ilog2() is inlined into bu_bitv_shift() then there's no problem inlining bu_bitv_shift() externally
22:03.49 caen23 i think that it tries expanding it like a macro, and when it needs to replace bu_bitv_shift with floor_ilog2, it can't because floor is static :-?
22:04.37 brlcad except it can because it's also inlinable ;)
22:05.52 brlcad the problem is inline is just a hint, so it's not that what it's warning(?) about is wrong but just not helpful since that is the intended behavior
22:06.13 brlcad if it were treating them like a macro, there wouldn't be a problem because it would properly do all the inlining
22:06.41 brlcad we're just trying to play nicely with functions instead of macros (again, just for readability)
22:09.48 caen23 hmm… i tried grepping the src dir, and it seems the function is only used inside a test
