05:03.48 cad_zulip in BRLCAD rendering means ray trace?
05:03.48 cad_zulip ```
05:03.48 cad_zulip yes, rendering typically means ray tracing

05:06.40 cad_zulip @**Sean** Is it a bad idea to leave semaphores in shootrays_parallel and directly feed rt_shootray to bu_parallel ?
05:06.40 cad_zulip ```
05:06.40 cad_zulip @**scorp08** as with most things "it depends". In general, it's not a terrible idea if done right.. It just might slow things down a little bit. However, what your'e suggesting is essentially what rt_shootrays() is doing (without a need for additional semaphores)
05:07.43 cad_zulip @**Sean**: ```quote
05:07.43 cad_zulip @**Sean** how to build and compile rtexample.c?
05:07.43 cad_zulip ```
05:07.43 cad_zulip See the wiki page on it for an example, but the answer very much depends on your operating system. It is already part of the BRL-CAD build, though. It's just not installed (see path/to/build/src/rt/rtexample)
06:06.36 cad_zulip @**Thusal Ranawaka**: In Appleseed#2 task it shows that there is a task for download and install BRL CAD from source but I cannot find that task.
06:22.04 cad_zulip @**Sean**: @**Thusal Ranawaka** there is a task to compile brl-cad from source
