05:04.11 lemur1 Or, is there any way to see what from the 'contributer quickies' list has not been done, or is the list kept up to date?

08:17.12 shiv05 Hi. I am new to brlcad. I hope to submit a proposal for gsoc. I am trying to build
08:17.15 shiv05 brlcad on windows 7 and am facing some difficulties. Can anyone help?
08:19.15 archivist ask the actual question and then someone can see it, no one know if they can help till you ask the real question
08:21.12 shiv05 Okay
08:21.21 shiv05 I am getting several errors while compiling
08:21.46 shiv05 The output log is https://www.dropbox.com/s/34t0tn70bs6lpb3/log.txt?dl=0

08:23.12 shiv05 the linker can't find some library files
08:23.49 archivist that wants people to create an account
08:24.56 lemur1 use pastebin
08:25.08 shiv05 The log is too big for pastebin
08:25.38 shiv05 archivist : an account for what?
08:25.56 lemur1 dropbox i assume
08:26.03 shiv05 oops
08:26.20 shiv05 give me a minute
08:26.42 archivist wants me to create an account and sign in, just need the errors in a sensible place
08:28.40 shiv05 http://www.megafileupload.com/en/file/614940/log-txt.html
08:28.43 lemur1 archivist, if i wanted to get in touch with a specific mentor, what would be the best way to do so?
08:32.49 archivist lemur1, i think there are docs on contacting mentors somewhere I am not one
08:33.13 lemur1 thank you, I will take a look
08:34.31 shiv05 archivist, can you view the file now?
08:35.38 archivist yes but that is one revolting site to use for uploads
08:36.03 archivist look for your first fatal error and try to diagnose
08:36.34 archivist looks like a path problem
08:37.45 shiv05 okay. I will do that. Thank you. Can you suggest a less revolting site to use for future uploads?

08:57.44 Stragus For text, you can use something like http://pastebin.com/
08:59.01 shiv05 the size of the file was too large for pastebin
08:59.10 shiv05 *size of the text
08:59.14 Stragus Ah, right
09:06.40 archivist edit so it includes only what is needed (first error section and command line used plus os and other sensible stuff)
09:07.11 shiv05 okay. I will do that in the future.

09:18.18 brlcad but seriously, search and you'll find a dozen, and most will take huge uploads

10:31.43 shiv05 While configuring with cmake, I used the following settings:
10:31.54 shiv05 Where is the source code: path of the folder in which I checked out the trunk w
10:32.04 shiv05 where to build the binaries : path of the folder in which I checked out the trunk/bld
10:32.26 shiv05 Am I doing something wrong while using cmake? Or is there some other problem? Help please!
10:32.58 swordfish12 hi, I am interested in participating for GSoc'15 and hopefully submit a proposal soon. can you give me references to "plate mode raytracing for NURBS models"?
10:35.30 archivist shiv05, have you searched in your file system for one of the missing files
10:35.39 shiv05 es
10:35.41 shiv05 *yes
10:35.58 shiv05 no lib files with those names are present
10:36.17 shiv05 there is other stuff with the same name, but no lib files
10:36.35 archivist have you googled for the error message to see what others did
10:37.21 archivist is it missing because something before failed to create it
10:38.24 shiv05 I tried. I didn't find anything helpful. Most of the stuff that I did find was for linux environments. Not many people have reported similar problems in context with brlcaed
10:38.27 shiv05 *brlcad
10:40.08 shiv05 I think so. The only installation step before compiling was using cmake.
10:40.29 shiv05 But I can't seem to find anything different to try while using cmake.

13:55.59 archivist you need to look at error messages and find out what they mean and fix them
14:01.34 shiv05 The problem is that a lot of the stuff that is missing is on linux only. (ncurses, arpa/inet.h etc). I feel like I am missing something.

14:19.07 ``Erik it might be worth noting that windows is not a primary platform for the developers, so it gets little attention and there's a significant possibility that it'll be broken or incomplete at any time... if it is, fixing the issues (in a way that doesn't break the other platforms) would be worthy of submitting a patchy

By default saveview uses the name of the open database in the script. This is a problem in Archer because the open database is a working copy, which means it's deleted on program exit, invalidating the script.
21:12.32 Notify Address this by silently passing the name of the original database to saveview if the input database isn't specified by the user. There's still a problem in that if a user creates a saveview script based on the working copy and doesn't save changes back to the original database, then the saveview script may still be invalid. For now though, possibly invalid is better than always invalid.
