| 04:42.07 | Stragus | Off-topic: Google appears to claim a simple cross-platform library for printing (paper & ink) doesn't exist. Does anyone know of an open-source library with printing without a gazillion internal dependencies to slice out only the printing part? |
| 06:24.08 | archivist | a bit unreasonable to expect a printer driver to be universal, normally somewhat printer and technology dependent |
| 06:29.12 | archivist | there is transport, usb, parallel, network,scsi, print technology, cmy,rgb,cmyk, etc, dumb/intelligent printer as well (hardware driver in pc or printer) |
| 06:30.51 | Stragus | Well, wxWidgets and Qt have fairly reasonable and cross-platform wrappers |
| 06:31.05 | Stragus | The underlying technology is usually taken care of by the OS |
| 06:43.24 | archivist | I used to work for a printer manufacturer many years ago :) |
| 06:44.27 | Stragus | I see :) |
| 06:46.01 | Stragus | I'm of course not looking for a driver but just cross-platform code ... that doesn't come with a monstruous code base like Qt or GTK+ |
| 06:46.14 | archivist | back in the days when postscipt was still in use in printers and during the roll out of "windows" printers that were dumb, they only had a graphic mode |
| 06:47.07 | Stragus | Parsing Postscript on a printer always seemed like a crazy idea to me, but I was probably born too late |
| 06:47.39 | Stragus | I assume the processing and memory requirements were somehow too high to rasterize everything on the CPU |
| 06:48.28 | archivist | for a page printer with memory you can just send a small vector based file with scaled and direction for the text |
| 06:48.33 | Stragus | thinks a printer should only have to do bilinear filtering and dithering, that's it |
| 06:50.36 | archivist | lasers had enough memory had for a full page, then they moved to low memory and did the work in the pc making that driver need memory and knowledge of the jet offsets in the print head |
| 06:51.18 | archivist | I had to implement a RISCOS driver for one |
| 06:52.27 | Stragus | :) Nice |
| 06:52.57 | archivist | dithering and and dot size are printer dependent |
| 06:53.25 | Stragus | That's something that a printer could manage on its own with very little processing and memory |
| 06:53.42 | Stragus | Unlike Postscript parsing |
| 06:54.19 | archivist | not in a dumb style printer, has to be in the OS driver |
| 06:55.32 | Stragus | That sounds terrible. So if I'm priting a 1024x1024 image full page on a 2500dpi printer, does the driver rescale the image to match that, with interpolation and dithering? |
| 06:55.44 | Stragus | I would hope not |
| 06:56.32 | archivist | driver does the scaling these days |
| 06:56.59 | Stragus | That's a lot of data to send through USB or... wifi |
| 06:58.05 | archivist | compression in the stream |
| 06:59.11 | Stragus | Right, I guess that works |
| 06:59.27 | Stragus | It still sounds like much higher latency per page than I would have expected |
| 06:59.36 | Stragus | (Especially for wifi printers) |
| 07:01.24 | archivist | hardware is slow compared to data rate, they are just making the hardware as cheaply and conveniently as possible |
| 07:03.15 | Stragus | So, as the resident printer expert, any idea of quick cross-platform code to print on any OS just a very high-resolution image? |
| 07:03.55 | Stragus | sounds like those who ask "Hey, I heard you are a programmer, can you tell me how to change the background in MSN?" |
| 07:04.06 | Stragus | :) |
| 07:04.27 | archivist | I doubt you will find cross platform holy grail |
| 07:05.08 | Stragus | Specifically looking for just libcups + whatever OSX uses + whatever Windows uses |
| 07:06.13 | Stragus | The GTK+, wxWidgets and Qt codes are all contamined by a gazillion internal dependencies to their own code base, plus a ton of cake icing features |
| 07:08.13 | archivist | implement your own use of libcups |
| 07:08.58 | Stragus | Then the same for OSX and Windows? Urgh... |
| 07:09.10 | Stragus | Does OSX use libcups? |
| 07:09.23 | archivist | probably find its missing scaling or whatever they re use :) |
| 07:09.42 | archivist | colour space conversion too |
| 07:10.56 | Stragus | just wants to shoot a high-resolution image to the printer |
| 07:12.07 | archivist | use the OS, think how you would print a random tiff file |
| 07:13.23 | Stragus | I wouldn't know how to do that from the command-line on OSX or Windows, but I guess I'll google that |
| 07:13.42 | Stragus | Might be easier than figuring out whatever printing APIs they use |
| 07:14.37 | Stragus | Thanks for the tip |
| 07:26.58 | archivist | I imaging the cups api is what you should be also looking at |
| 07:32.55 | Stragus | Yes, I can live with that. It's OSX + Windows that are bothering me |
| 07:33.37 | Stragus | (I only have access to OSX remotely, and I can't code on Windows while preserving what remains of my sanity) |
| 07:33.49 | archivist | osc cups should work/be there |
| 07:33.53 | archivist | osx |
| 07:33.54 | Stragus | But invoking some external software to do the printing for me sounds like a pretty good solution |
| 07:34.00 | Stragus | Oh, that would be great |
| 07:34.31 | archivist | winows will have some awful api for your displeasure |

| 08:49.50 | sofat | https://bpaste.net/show/97605341d515 |
| 08:50.11 | sofat | so How I am solve this error ? |
| 09:24.42 | d_rossberg | sofat: there isn't much to see, did you tried to enable BRLCAD_ENABLE_VERBOSE_PROGRESS in CMake to get more information? |
| 09:25.36 | sofat | ok wait I try this |
| 09:28.25 | sofat | d_rossberg, how i enable ? |
| 09:34.10 | d_rossberg | i use the cvs gui ("Advanced" enabled) |
| 09:35.40 | sofat | please explain more i am new in this. |
| 10:18.30 | sofat | d_rossberg, I am not able to enabling this " BRLCAD_ENABLE_VERBOSE_PROGRESS" please help how i enable this |

| 10:58.18 | sofat | i run only make command |
| 10:58.28 | sofat | not cmake |
| 10:59.52 | sofat | i compile the code of brlcad to check my document is valid or not , but in CMakeLists.txt i added the new images then i found this error . |
| 11:00.05 | d_rossberg | then, how did you get the Makefile? |
| 11:00.41 | sofat | after ./configure command |
| 11:01.19 | sofat | i get make file then i run make command to run this file |
| 11:03.24 | d_rossberg | OK, configure runs cmake, it eveb prints the corresponding cmake command line |
| 11:03.33 | sofat | i am run the ./configure again and again i just one time run the ./configure command(may be six month before) but now when i make the any changes in docs or new doc then i only add the information regarding this doc in CMakeList.txt and then run the make command to check the output. |

| 11:09.37 | dracarys983 | d_rossberg: Implementing the missing functions would mean the mathematical approach right? |
| 11:09.38 | sofat | d_rossberg, ok i will try this and report you |

| 11:10.37 | d_rossberg | if you have an idea you could try this |
| 11:11.32 | sofat | d_rossberg, one question more |
| 11:12.00 | sofat | source files means my CMakeLists.txt file or some thing else? |
| 11:14.09 | d_rossberg | hm, same as you did for configure, if you called configure without any parameter you can probably use "." (a point) |
| 11:14.39 | d_rossberg | this would mean that source and build directories are the same |
| 11:15.33 | dracarys983 | d_rossberg: Okay, that's a start. I had tried writing a surface area call back for arb8 before. I have also submitted a patch for it, but I believe that's incomplete. |
| 11:17.10 | dracarys983 | I don't have any idea right now for the primitives that have it missing. Would need some research. :) |
| 11:18.59 | d_rossberg | i wouldn't be surprised if the easy ones are all already done :) |
