Sean (Mar 27 2024 at 05:58): Sean (Mar 27 2024 at 05:58):Hello @all we're considering having an open video meeting sometime this week where GSoC candidates can ask questions. We're tentatively looking at this Thursday or Friday, time TBD, so you have time to adapt proposals and code submissions accordingly. Is there candidate interest in meeting with mentors?

Yes, I am very much interested in this. I will be attending the meet for sure.
Louis Googl (Mar 27 2024 at 08:35):Hi @Sean , can I join too ? I am not preparing anything for GSOC but I would like to restart my contributions to BRL-CAD

Sean (Mar 27 2024 at 13:04):We are confirmed for this Thursday at 1700 UTC. We'll post a link sometime later today.

Sorry, I wasn't able to attend due to an family emergency :exhausted:
Louis Googl (Mar 30 2024 at 16:59):@Daniel Rossberg I found the key file converter but it wasn't working
ConverterDoesntwork.png
and I found the bug , it is because the function ifstream::tellg() is giving the wrong position, it can be corrected by opening the file as binary

should I subbmit a patch for it?
Louis Googl (Mar 30 2024 at 17:00):final.png
it seems to give correct results after correction
Sean (Mar 31 2024 at 06:42):Looks like a perfectly reasonable pull request to submit @Louis Googl and nice find fixing the issue! In other converters, they go through API where the mechanism employed to denote binary file output is a bit different.
Louis Googl (Mar 31 2024 at 10:26):I created a pull request @Sean , I will write a proposal for the opposite converter from .g to .key. I know it's late, but if you have any suggestions please let me know. Thank you.
Daniel Rossberg (Mar 31 2024 at 17:23):k-g was likely developed on Linux or another OS which doesn't differentiate between text and binary streams. Did you tested your patch on Linux too? Can you provide us with the k-file you used?
Louis Googl (Mar 31 2024 at 17:26):I tested the k-g on windows, I will also test it on Linux. Sure attatched to this massage is the .k file I used
Comp.k
Louis Googl (Apr 02 2024 at 15:32):I submitted a proposal for the g-k converter, in case the project would be too small I can work also on the STEP importer which is a project idea suggested by @Sean . Considering that LS-DYNA supports saving the geomtry in STEP format this could be an integral part to the project. if you have suggestions for what I can do next please let me know, meanwhile I will be working on the g-k converter.
