04:49.00 Notify 03BRL-CAD:phoenixyjll * 55312 brlcad/trunk/src/libbrep/opennurbs_ext.cpp: Loop detection in 3D space and 2D space should be done separately.
04:53.57 kanzure neat.

16:18.24 Notify 03BRL-CAD:r_weiss * 55313 brlcad/trunk/sh/cmp.sh: Bug fix to 'cmp.sh' script to fix 'g_qa' volume testing.
16:26.56 Notify 03BRL-CAD:carlmoore * 55314 brlcad/trunk/src/sig/smod.c: implement 'progname' in output statements, and be concerned with cosmetic stuff (looking like umod.c as much as possible)
16:33.12 Notify 03BRL-CAD:carlmoore * 55315 brlcad/trunk/src/sig/umod.c: cosmetic changes (look like smod.c as much as possible); implement progname in outputs (some hardwired usages had wrong name); implement 'usage' variable; add an 'else'

16:44.11 Notify 03BRL-CAD:carlmoore * 55316 brlcad/trunk/src/sig/dmod.c: implement progname in outputs
17:10.06 kesha_ Plz Help me understand this http://pastebin.mozilla.org/2382431 . I changed the reference in src/fedex_plus/CMakeLists.txt from "non-ors.cc" to "../clstepcore/non-ors.cc" and the same in fedex_python after removing the file non-ors.cc in src/fedex_plus/
17:18.21 Notify 03BRL-CAD:n_reed * 55317 brlcad/trunk/src/conv/step/OpenNurbsInterfaces.cpp: need to unitize direction vector before scaling by absolute distance to intersection

19:00.49 brlcad kesha__: basically, you can't just move files around and expect it to work ;)
19:01.14 brlcad non-ors.cc is calling some functions (the ones listed) .. those functions do not exist in clstepcore
19:01.28 brlcad they did exist in fedex_plus (which is probably why that file was in that directory)
19:02.34 brlcad so you'd presumably have to figure out what to do, whether it's possible to untangle the calls, replace them, move them, delete them, or otherwise refactor them into clstepcore
19:07.00 *** join/#brlcad caen23 (~caen23@92.81.182.136)
19:11.07 caen23 i have svn 1.7.9 and just tried to run an `svn up`, but it told me to run `svn upgrade` first. is the svn on the server older?
19:18.13 Notify 03BRL-CAD:n_reed * 55318 brlcad/trunk/src/conv/step/OpenNurbsInterfaces.cpp: oversimplified a bit in r55303, s near zero should become 2pi

19:50.19 ``Erik caen23: probably means you've upgraded your install of svn since the last time you did an update... the server is running whatever sourceforge decides to run

21:00.51 zero_level brlcad: i got pix files in the pix folder.. looking for .bw files can u point me to some src
21:27.31 ``Erik could always do pix-bw to generate one
21:28.19 zero_level oh yes..
21:28.26 zero_level thanks..
21:28.59 zero_level actually i just figured it out..
21:31.14 zero_level ``Erik: in the design of icv at present we use fd in the image struct
21:31.23 zero_level what is the use of thisn?
21:33.18 ``Erik it's the handle to the file that backs the image
21:34.32 zero_level but do we need this when we have already read the file ?
21:35.45 ``Erik a big part of icv was to provide a way for programs like rt to write to arbitrary file formats, like png or jpg
21:38.01 zero_level ok... and fd backs the primitive format like bw and pix ?
21:38.43 ``Erik so when the icv is created, the fd is attached to the file (to verify it can write before spending cpu raytracing) , then buffers as much as needed and writes when it can
21:38.59 ``Erik so with a pix or bw, it's almost immediately writing, but a png has to buffer up the image to run the compression algorithms
21:47.31 zero_level is jpg also important format because i didnt find that in icv formats and indeed didnt incluse in my proposal
22:05.40 ``Erik no, not yet, just one that would require collecting all the pixels before generating the image *shrug*
22:05.58 zero_level ``Erik: i meant important for brlcad applications since it is lossy
22:06.01 ``Erik png is probably the gold standard: pixel perfect and highly compressed
22:06.09 zero_level ok.
22:06.22 ``Erik there was discussion about integrating the EXR format using the open source library
22:06.39 ``Erik http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenEXR
22:07.39 ``Erik that'd involve changing the icv internal representation, but that's a "private" data glob, so it's ok
22:23.40 zero_level k i will find the details of implmentation.
22:35.26 ``Erik the proposals have not been reviewed and none have been accepted yet, so there is no guarantee that you'll be awarded this task or that it will remain exactly the same... if you're looking for some related trivial task to submit as a patch, I'd imagine something very simple like modifying pix-bw to use the icv read/write functions?
22:48.48 zero_level i have already submitted a patch for reading png pix and bw file...
22:49.26 zero_level currently i am trying to remove the bug in guess_fike_format
22:49.42 zero_level and then using this to load.
22:50.48 zero_level ``Erick did u implement the current form of icv?
22:51.33 zero_level ``Erik sry for typo..
22:55.24 ``Erik zero_level: mostly, others have provided changes as well... it began as bu_image
22:58.45 zero_level actually i inferred from the chats and the comments in the code... they were very much in sync
