| 03:16.25 | brlcad | it does what it's designed to do .. checks to make sure the dsp_mp pointer is a mapped file, though you spell FULE wrong |

| 22:45.56 | myric | Hello all |
| 22:46.58 | myric | Hey I downloaded the latest source for brlcad but it would not build. |
| 22:47.56 | myric | http://switch.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/brlcad/brlcad-7.8.2.tar.gz |
| 22:48.42 | myric | The file adrt/isst/observer/observer.c references a file splash.h that doesn't exist |
| 22:49.09 | myric | and then the functions that are supposed to be there for showing a splash screen had to be commented out |
| 22:56.24 | dtidrow | which OS are you building on? |
| 23:06.08 | myric | linux |
| 23:06.18 | myric | sorry didn't see your response |
| 23:06.23 | myric | doesn't matter |
| 23:06.59 | myric | #include "splash.h" when there's no "splash.h" breaks a build on any platform |
| 23:18.13 | dtidrow | odd - it compiles fine for me on FC4 |
| 23:19.55 | myric | hmm |
| 23:20.10 | myric | 7.8.0 or 7.8.2? |
| 23:20.16 | dtidrow | 7.8.2 |
| 23:20.42 | myric | can you find a file in your source called splash.h |
| 23:20.44 | myric | ? |
| 23:20.56 | myric | maybe I gat a bad tar |
| 23:20.57 | dtidrow | hang on - that was at my work machine |
| 23:21.02 | myric | oh sorry |
| 23:21.12 | dtidrow | np - just have to log into it |
| 23:22.06 | CIA-9 | BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/mged/ged.c: refix the command-line history bug that was inadvertently undone by the mac delete key patch |
| 23:22.19 | myric | I'm running ubunto 6.06 on this pc btw |
| 23:22.30 | dtidrow | nope, no splash.h there |
| 23:22.33 | myric | hmm |
| 23:23.12 | myric | mine either |
| 23:23.24 | myric | and there's a reference to it in adrt/isst/observer/observer.c |
| 23:23.28 | dtidrow | which file is the #include in? |
| 23:23.40 | myric | i had to comment it out to get it to build |
| 23:25.14 | myric | not really a problem since I figured it out. It'll just confuse people trying it for the first time if it happens to them. |
| 23:26.14 | dtidrow | but where is it coming from? |
| 23:26.40 | dtidrow | I wonder if it's a tk thing.... |
| 23:29.16 | CIA-9 | BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/mged/ (ged.c history.c): make the command history pattern arg const |
| 23:31.33 | myric | it was just a build error in a c file |
| 23:31.49 | myric | We must have different files |
| 23:31.57 | myric | somehow |
| 23:32.19 | myric | I don't think tk uses .h files or .c files |
| 23:35.24 | CIA-9 | BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/mged/clone.c: |
| 23:35.24 | CIA-9 | BRL-CAD: one step closer towards v5 database support, make function hooks match |
| 23:35.24 | CIA-9 | BRL-CAD: db_functree interface (last param wasn't genptr_t). fix a memory leak related |
| 23:35.24 | CIA-9 | BRL-CAD: to get_name(). keep track of whether objects are correctly cloned via get_name |
| 23:35.24 | CIA-9 | BRL-CAD: lookups. |
| 23:35.24 | myric | ohhh... |
| 23:36.05 | myric | I did have to do some playing with configure options to get adrt to build at all |
| 23:36.15 | myric | maybe you didn't build adrt? |
| 23:37.41 | brlcad | myric: adrt auto-enables if it finds python and sdl |
| 23:38.11 | brlcad | though it really shouldn't because it's as cross-platform-compiling capable as the rest of the package |
| 23:38.42 | myric | it didn't on mine because it didn't find python |
| 23:39.26 | brlcad | since you have sdl and python, you could conceivably get it to successfully build by fixing the Makefile.am's but it's not really critical |
| 23:39.27 | myric | so I had to give a --with-python=/usr/include/python2.4/ switch |
| 23:39.32 | brlcad | ahh |
| 23:39.41 | brlcad | I'd suggest leaving that off ;) |
| 23:39.44 | myric | I did that too |
| 23:40.18 | myric | I also manually edited the Makefile.am, but I thought that was just me |
| 23:40.30 | myric | since I configured it several times |
| 23:40.33 | brlcad | should --disable-adrt ;) |
| 23:40.41 | myric | what exactly is adrt |
| 23:40.42 | myric | ? |
| 23:40.48 | myric | I could look it up.. |
| 23:40.48 | brlcad | sdl and python aren't required for anything else |
| 23:41.00 | brlcad | adrt is the "advanced distributed ray-tracer" |
| 23:41.07 | myric | ah |
| 23:41.17 | myric | I thought maybe it had something to do with the new archer |
| 23:41.22 | brlcad | it's a very high-performance triangle ray-trace library, path tracer, and ray-tracer |
| 23:42.14 | brlcad | specific to triangle-only models, but very nicely high-performing .. takes some configuration work to make use of it, some not well documented |
| 23:42.24 | brlcad | nothing to do with archer |
| 23:42.27 | myric | ok |
| 23:42.38 | myric | I did get it to build |
| 23:42.53 | myric | It just didn't build out of the box so to speak |
| 23:42.59 | brlcad | archer also hasn't been set up for non-windows platforms yet either fwiw |
| 23:43.04 | myric | and I wanted to let somebody know |
| 23:43.09 | brlcad | it's not supposed to build out of the box yet ;) |
| 23:43.17 | myric | ok then |
| 23:43.43 | myric | I'd like to work on getting archer to work on linux. |
| 23:43.49 | brlcad | it's on the to-do list, just hasn't been a priority |
| 23:43.55 | brlcad | that'd be very cool |
| 23:44.02 | myric | I've got a few hours to poke around tonight |
| 23:44.34 | brlcad | it's run on linux, so it really should just be some pathing/setup issues |
| 23:44.53 | myric | I know it runs on linux because I just build it |
| 23:45.00 | brlcad | mac os x is the only platform that should actually require a little code (to load blt correctly from a dylib) |
| 23:45.25 | myric | maybe I'm misunderstanding what archer is |
| 23:46.05 | brlcad | most of archer doesn't require compilation.. getting it to "build" doesn't take too much :) getting it to fully run correctly, however, is another issue |
| 23:46.06 | myric | Is it supposed to be a new user friendly modeling interface? |
| 23:46.10 | brlcad | yes |
| 23:46.18 | myric | ok so maybe not |
| 23:47.00 | myric | I haven't done much programming in tcl, but I think I could get this to work. |
| 23:47.09 | myric | What is it supposed to look like? |
| 23:47.21 | myric | I get a blank window with a set of axes when i open it |
| 23:47.33 | myric | and four buttons for zooming and rotating |
| 23:47.47 | myric | oh it get the axes when I make a new db |
| 23:48.35 | myric | I commented out the "package require blt" bit because blt commands seem to work fine without it |
| 23:48.50 | myric | it was throwing an error |
| 23:49.03 | brlcad | http://ftp.brlcad.org/images/archer.jpg |
| 23:49.35 | myric | great, so I have something to work toward |
| 23:49.46 | myric | I'm not getting the toolbar |
| 23:50.12 | brlcad | lack of blt is probably why you have no toolbar |
| 23:50.18 | myric | or the prompt, just the viewing window |
| 23:50.23 | myric | hmm |
| 23:50.33 | brlcad | some of the interface items are disabled by default |
| 23:50.41 | brlcad | see the "advanced" mode on the menu |
| 23:50.50 | myric | I tried running a few blt::blahblah commands in bwish and they seem to work fine |
| 23:51.23 | brlcad | may have linked blt static |
| 23:51.34 | myric | ah hah |
| 23:51.38 | myric | I have a toolbar |
| 23:52.19 | brlcad | cool |
| 23:52.37 | brlcad | you may be mostly fully functional already then |
| 23:54.44 | myric | yeah It actually seems to work |
| 23:54.48 | myric | I'll play with it |
| 23:55.52 | myric | I do remember something like "build static: yes" from the configure script |
| 23:58.04 | dtidrow | just got back - figured that the adrt stuff didn't build |
| 23:58.13 | dtidrow | which is why I didn't see any error |
