14:47.01 hsrai ankesh11: Nice to see that you are able to replace charting library "HighCharts" with Flot, as per you development log dated June 03, under http://brlcad.org/wiki/User:Ankeshanand/GSoC14/logs#Development_Phase
14:51.10 hsrai The sample chart you put there ( http://i.imgur.com/KFQrLdp.png ) appears to have odd mix of lowercase and uppercase. See is it due to poor choice of font?
14:53.18 ankesh11 hsrai: Flot's API reference was very detailed, so it was easy to port. I agree on the font issue, it's not very readable too, will fix that.
14:58.49 Notify 03BRL-CAD:starseeker * 61106 brlcad/trunk/src/librt/test_bot2nurbs.cpp: Testing both pullback methods, it looks like they are mostly consistent - this indicates the problem is at least partially with the surface fit.

17:38.33 d_rossberg andrei_: now yes
17:39.12 andrei_ hi!
17:39.33 andrei_ I figured it's easier to discuss here instead of changing a large volume of mails.
17:39.43 d_rossberg ok
17:39.58 andrei_ it's quite obvious why we should use radius for the float
17:40.09 andrei_ but I'm not sure I understand why center instead of normal
17:40.35 d_rossberg because it is the center?
17:40.44 andrei_ that would imply that for the "Center" function I can return either of the 3 vectors
17:40.48 andrei_ a, b or c?
17:41.16 *** join/#brlcad nickk_ (653ac0e8@gateway/web/freenode/ip.101.58.192.232)
17:41.25 d_rossberg what does the current Normal() function return?
17:42.07 andrei_ it returns eqn
17:42.19 starseeker brlcad: what is bots, per_line in the deprecation file (pertains to mged?)
17:42.38 andrei_ which is that plane_t type which contains 4 vectors
17:42.55 andrei_ this is the exact line return Vector3D(Internal()->eqn);
17:43.21 d_rossberg thats not rigth, Normal() returns Vector3D
17:43.41 Notify 03BRL-CAD:starseeker * 61111 (brlcad/trunk/CHANGES brlcad/trunk/include/raytrace.h): Remove rt_fdiff, rt_reldiff and the DIR_ prefixed defines from raytrace.h [all deprecated 7.14]

17:44.22 andrei_ it does. But I don't understand how the Vector3D constructor takes
17:44.50 andrei_ ->eqn as a parameter, which isn't a 3P
17:45.26 Notify 03BRL-CAD:starseeker * 61113 (brlcad/trunk/CHANGES brlcad/trunk/include/fb.h): Remove FB_WPIXEL [deprecated 7.14]
17:45.29 d_rossberg Vector3D is defined in cicommon.h
17:46.34 d_rossberg which of the 3 constructors coul it be i've used in Halfspace?
17:48.48 d_rossberg btw, you find all you need in Ellipsoid.cpp
17:49.08 andrei_ I think this one: Vector3D(const double vector[3]) throw()
17:49.40 d_rossberg right, it means it takes the first three values from the array given
17:49.49 Notify 03BRL-CAD:starseeker * 61114 (brlcad/trunk/CHANGES brlcad/trunk/sh/CMakeLists.txt): Remove deprecated scripts [deprecated 7.16]
17:50.25 d_rossberg in Ellipsoid.cpp you can find the apropriate implementation for the center methods
17:51.25 andrei_ I think I understand. I can simply ignore the "Axis" methods and look straight at center for Sph
17:51.41 andrei_ then finding radius isn't difficult
17:52.00 andrei_ thanks! I'll get to work
17:52.16 d_rossberg but, the first task would be to know that you need methods for center and radius and designing the interface (Sphere.h) akkording to this
17:53.58 andrei_ I intend to change both .h and .c in one patch, is that ok?
17:54.07 d_rossberg for the radius: you have to keep in mind that the sphere is a special ellipsoid where one radius says all
17:54.20 d_rossberg thats ok
17:55.35 d_rossberg maybe Ellipsoid::SetSphere() is a function you should look for reference
17:56.15 andrei_ I've noticed that in that vector matrix, the radius is identical on the diagonal

22:33.12 hcurtis CMake is controlled by writing instructions in CMakeLists.txt files. My best guess is that my dynamic allocation program will need its own CMakeLists.txt file.
