IRC log for #brlcad on 20130818

01:16.00 Notify 03BRL-CAD:tbrowder2 * 56923 brlcad/trunk/src/libfb/if_X24.c: add missing type
06:12.42 *** join/#brlcad caen23 (~caen23@92.83.169.185)

10:35.24 *** join/#brlcad caen23 (~caen23@92.83.191.7)
11:54.45 Notify 03BRL-CAD:tbrowder2 * 56924 brlcad/trunk/src/libfb/if_X24.c: think it should be INT_MAX
15:49.41 *** join/#brlcad Ch3ck_ (~Ch3ck@195.24.220.16)
16:07.58 Notify 03BRL-CAD:brlcad * 56925 brlcad/trunk/src/librt/primitives/hrt/hrt.c: w1 is set but never used. eliminate w1, but probably implies the logic is wrong
16:14.41 Notify 03BRL-CAD:tbrowder2 * 56926 brlcad/trunk/src/conv/3dm/3dm-g.cpp: -----------
16:29.34 Notify 03BRL-CAD:brlcad * 56927 brlcad/trunk/src/conv/3dm/3dm-g.cpp: you can't/shouldn't call + operator on a string literal. += would have been okay, but the itoa() function is bad. make it more clear what's going on with a bu_vls
16:32.41 Notify 03BRL-CAD:brlcad * 56928 brlcad/trunk/src/librt/primitives/hrt/hrt.c: and since w1 is now gone, P is apparently also unused.
16:41.58 Notify 03BRL-CAD:brlcad * 56929 brlcad/trunk/src/conv/3dm/3dm-g.cpp: eliminate the fixed 256-char array, use a bu_vls. convert sizes to size_t.
16:45.05 Notify 03BRL-CAD:brlcad * 56930 brlcad/trunk/src/conv/3dm/3dm-g.cpp: now the lame itoa() function is unused, so we can remove it and it's static buffer evilness. mark the other functions static also lets the compiler discover that printPoints() is unused, so we remove that too.
17:39.03 Notify 03BRL-CAD:tbrowder2 * 56931 brlcad/trunk/doc/docbook/system/mann/en/edcomb.xml: there's no 'or' about it
17:43.06 Notify 03BRL-CAD:tbrowder2 * 56932 brlcad/trunk/src/libged/human.c: human bodies have sex characteristics, not gender
17:53.23 Notify 03BRL-CAD:tbrowder2 * 56933 brlcad/trunk/doc/docbook/system/mann/en/edcomb.xml: use preferred terminolgy
18:08.12 Notify 03BRL-CAD Wiki:Harman052 * 6000 /wiki/User:Harman052/GSoc2013/Logs:
18:41.52 Notify 03BRL-CAD:tbrowder2 * 56934 brlcad/trunk/doc/docbook/system/mann/en/attr.xml: trying to clarify some apparent anomalies in region attributes; add another attr set example
18:44.05 Notify 03BRL-CAD:tbrowder2 * 56935 (brlcad/trunk/src/libged/comb.c brlcad/trunk/src/libged/comb_std.c and 2 others): make all 4 display same message at region creation\nuse current attr terminolgy
18:46.41 Notify 03BRL-CAD:tbrowder2 * 56936 brlcad/trunk/doc/docbook/system/mann/en/attr.xml: reference correct mged command
18:50.17 Notify 03BRL-CAD:tbrowder2 * 56937 brlcad/trunk/src/libged/comb.c: return closing paren to its rightful place
18:54.03 Notify 03BRL-CAD:tbrowder2 * 56938 brlcad/trunk/doc/docbook/system/mann/en/attr.xml: the message format is the same, not the values necessarily
19:12.01 brlcad very interesting: http://graphics.pixar.com/opensubdiv/
19:13.07 starseeker O.o - they switched to the Apache license?
19:13.28 starseeker hot diggity
19:13.39 brlcad as of siggraph, yeah
19:14.06 brlcad notes had someone been there, would have noticed it sooner
19:14.19 starseeker nods
19:14.37 starseeker that's a big deal - Blender (and us, for that matter) can now consider it
19:14.59 starseeker bugger - they even had a course on it
19:15.05 starseeker would have been handy
19:27.55 brlcad cool, we get a mention: http://www.docstoc.com/docs/40927294/3D-Modeling-Subdivision-Surfaces-Solid-Modeling
19:53.47 Notify 03BRL-CAD:brlcad * 56939 brlcad/trunk/TODO: cycles and opensubdiv are worth considering for a variety of reasons. need to evaluate the complexity, costs, and benefits
19:54.30 starseeker cycles? Is that blender's OSL raytracer?
19:55.26 starseeker O.O they went Apache too???
19:55.48 starseeker ah - as of today
19:57.35 starseeker wow
19:57.53 starseeker big news indeed
20:01.50 Notify 03BRL-CAD Wiki:Bgreene231 * 0 /wiki/User:Bgreene231:
20:06.52 brlcad I think tom's question is about your attribute syncing code
20:41.14 starseeker ah ha - https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/blender/intern/cycles/
22:22.57 Notify 03BRL-CAD:starseeker * 56940 brlcad/trunk/doc/docbook/system/mann/en/attr.xml: Docbook wasn't validating
22:40.07 Notify 03BRL-CAD:starseeker * 56941 (brlcad/trunk/src/librt/comb/comb.c brlcad/trunk/src/librt/db5_types.c): moving from rgb to color looks like it was a mistake - go back to rgb as the 'default'. Moving back could also introduce problems, so needs testing, but a 'proper' solution to all this will probably have to wait for v6/8.0
23:01.42 starseeker interesting - the target with opensubdiv 2.0 per the release roadmap includes "Intersect rays with subdiv limits"
23:05.38 starseeker http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/intel-gfx/2013-April/026747.html
23:24.25 *** join/#brlcad mpictor (~mark@2601:d:b280:b5:d63d:7eff:fe2d:2505)
23:31.20 starseeker sounds like the openvdb demos were interesting: http://www.blenderartists.org/forum/showthread.php?302269-Brecht-s-SIGGRAPH-observations&p=2433332&viewfull=1#post2433332
