| 00:13.52 | starseeker | caen23: OK - when you ran CMake, what options did you supply? |
| 00:14.08 | starseeker | specifically, the BRLCAD_BUNDLED_LIBS option |

| 01:42.04 | brlcad | i'd asked you to keep an eye on how long the first file took you, how long the second took |
| 01:43.30 | caen23 | brlcad: most of the files required the exact same edit. first… let's say ~5 min. second less than 1 min. for the rest i used a script to weed out the same edit |
| 01:44.11 | brlcad | seemed like more than 5 min for you to clean up the first one... :) |
| 01:44.31 | caen23 | template.xml? |
| 01:44.46 | brlcad | sure |
| 01:45.57 | brlcad | 18:28 < caen23> brlcad: i'm still trying to fix the first file. my previous task is yet to be reviewed <- that was two hours ago |
| 01:46.21 | caen23 | starseeker edited that for me, so i didn't count it. plus, that one is a particular case. the rest are more uniform and only require 1 edit |
| 01:46.38 | brlcad | shrug, okay |
| 01:46.48 | brlcad | still 11 files, 2 hours ? |
| 01:46.52 | brlcad | or were you doing something else too |
| 01:47.17 | brlcad | per your 5+1*10, that would have been 15 min :) |
| 01:48.04 | caen23 | but yes, figuring out what exactly the task/workflow is will take you more than 5 min :) i didn't get started right away |

| 01:56.55 | brlcad | at a glance, that project file doesn't look right -- what'd you do to generate the xcode project? |

| 02:12.01 | brlcad | caen23: I dont' understand the question |
| 02:13.32 | caen23 | right now, there's a task on gci that requires cleaning the articles/ dir. so there's probably going to be one for the system/ dir, too. i've finished both of them, so i was thinking of submitting them as a single task |
| 02:19.52 | minichrispy | @brlcad the build took half a second. I found the xcodeproject file in the folder generated by cmake. i didnt make my own project (im not sure how i would integrate it with brlcad) |
| 02:27.22 | brlcad | minichrispy: building brl-cad should take 5-10 minutes at least, so it sounds like it didn't make the project right |
| 02:28.00 | brlcad | more like 5-50 min |
| 02:28.25 | minichrispy | brlcad: well, i cant seem to find any guide to setup a project correctly, so im not really sure what to do |
| 02:28.37 | brlcad | caen23: how long did the system dir take? that one is huge |
| 02:29.03 | brlcad | minichrispy: first things first, have you compiled brl-cad the "normal" way on mac using the make build? |
| 02:29.04 | caen23 | in all, somewhere around half an hour |
| 02:29.15 | brlcad | caen23: astounding, okay |
| 02:29.30 | brlcad | all 263 files?? |
| 02:29.57 | minichrispy | brlcad: no, i only downloaded the already compiled one for mac |
| 02:30.33 | brlcad | minichrispy: okay, i'm really confused then -- what's your task? |
| 02:30.43 | caen23 | it seems huge, but it's mostly going over the same stuff. maybe not half an hour, mann was more complex, but somewhere around that |
| 02:30.46 | minichrispy | http://www.google-melange.com/gci/task/view/google/gci2012/8022212 |

| 02:31.26 | brlcad | how in the world did you get cmake to generate an xcode project? :) |
| 02:31.41 | brlcad | what did you do? |
| 02:32.05 | brlcad | caen23: I'll at least add another task for "all the rest" that you can claim |
| 02:32.18 | caen23 | ok |
| 02:32.38 | brlcad | books lessons and specifications are the only three remaining |
| 02:33.01 | brlcad | oh, and presentations |
| 02:33.25 | brlcad | maybe try doing all except lessons |

| 03:30.34 | brlcad | minichrispy: http://brlcad.org/wiki/Compiling |
| 03:31.09 | brlcad | should compile it the usual way first |
| 03:31.15 | minichrispy | i used this: cmake .. -DBRLCAD_ENABLE_STRICT=OFF -DBRLCAD_BUNDLED_LIBS=ON It didnt generate any xcode projects that i see |
| 03:31.29 | minichrispy | i think thats what i did, right? |
| 03:31.37 | brlcad | minichrispy: forget about xcode until you complete those Compiling instructions |
| 03:32.03 | brlcad | that'll help you understand the xcode steps |
| 03:32.07 | GrantMercer015 | i learned that i cannot just sort argv[1] because it is constant, and it would change the the contents(illegal!), i also learned i cannot sort the contents INSIDE argv[1] with just qsort, i need to get the information out of there somehow. My new idea is using a FILE object to read in the contents of the file into a buffer, then manipulate that buffer into a 2d numerical array then call quicksort |
| 03:32.08 | GrantMercer015 | to sort the array based upon the 2nd field using quicksort on each column |
| 03:32.15 | GrantMercer015 | am i overthinking this? |
| 03:32.23 | minichrispy | ok, so ill continue with make |
| 03:32.46 | starseeker | GrantMercer015: what was wrong with copying the argv contents into a new, non-const char ** array? |
| 03:34.11 | bhlegm | hey, i get http://pastie.org/5445879 on the vm |
| 03:34.29 | GrantMercer015 | so thats what the code you showed me did? |
| 03:34.33 | GrantMercer015 | well i'll be |
| 03:34.34 | brlcad | GrantMercer015: nope, that's good progress |
| 03:34.58 | brlcad | bhlegm: what was your cmake line? |
| 03:35.12 | bhlegm | -DBRLCAD_ENABLE_STRICT=OFF -DBRLCAD_BUNDLED_LIBS=oN |
| 03:35.14 | brlcad | you're the second person to report that compiler bug |
| 03:35.22 | GrantMercer015 | was that code in the utility.c file? |
| 03:35.26 | starseeker | GrantMercer015: ok, brlcad is a better source of advise for that task - go with his advice |
| 03:36.15 | brlcad | bhlegm: edit src/libfft/CMakeLists.txt and set FFT_NUMLIST to just "16;32" |
| 03:36.51 | brlcad | GrantMercer015: so first off, you can change a const, you're just not supposed to |
| 03:37.00 | brlcad | it's just a hint |
| 03:37.21 | GrantMercer015 | how would i get past those rules? i never knew i could actually change a const |
| 03:37.29 | brlcad | you can sort the contents inside argv[1] but not very usefully ;) |
| 03:37.51 | brlcad | i'm not going to teach you that bad habit, just be aware that it's possible |
| 03:38.07 | GrantMercer015 | isnt argv[1] the file that the system uses to sort anyways with the sort -n ... command? |
| 03:38.59 | brlcad | I don't recall what that specific code does |
| 03:39.10 | brlcad | all that is implied is that it's a string |
| 03:40.17 | GrantMercer015 | so "it" is a string that i need to compare its numerical values with? |
| 03:41.02 | GrantMercer015 | because i've spent this entire time attempting to access argv[1] thinking it was the file i needed to sort |
| 03:41.27 | brlcad | you should figure that bit out ;) |
| 03:41.34 | minichrispy | @brlcad: that doesnt look too good - http://www.flickr.com/photos/90521899@N05/8225158225/in/photostream |
| 03:41.48 | brlcad | the fact that you're referencing a single field of an argv array, it's a single string |
| 03:42.23 | brlcad | so it probably is a filename .. but then where'd that file come from |
| 03:42.30 | brlcad | maybe you can get to the data before it's written to a file |
| 03:42.44 | brlcad | you need it in memory to sort it anywyas |

| 03:59.12 | starseeker | caen23: the comgeom-g man page has a few issues - "s###" isn't translating into the man page cleanly |
| 03:59.18 | starseeker | looks like a few others like that |
| 03:59.52 | starseeker | caen23: to check the man page output from a Docbook build, you can do the following from the toplevel build directory: |
| 03:59.54 | brlcad | minichrispy: that's interesting .. so you DO have versions of that file, just not the usual ones that you should |

| 04:00.14 | brlcad | starseeker: how to specify an extra X11 search dir? |
| 04:00.36 | starseeker | erm |
| 04:00.39 | brlcad | minichrispy's are in /opt/X11 |
| 04:01.13 | brlcad | minichrispy: what version of mac are you running? |
| 04:01.32 | minichrispy | 10.8.1 |
| 04:01.41 | starseeker | brlcad: at the moment, I don't think you can short of manually editing misc/CMake/FindX11.cmake |

| 04:02.08 | starseeker | brlcad: It would be easy enough to add in a variable that could take a path, but I just hadn't done it |
| 04:02.30 | starseeker | caen23: ah, whoops - you probably haven't built the main part of BRL-CAD |
| 04:02.34 | starseeker | try make btclsh |
| 04:02.48 | brlcad | minichrispy: ahhhh |
| 04:02.51 | brlcad | that explains it |
| 04:02.59 | brlcad | http://news.softpedia.com/news/X11-and-OS-X-10-8-Mountain-Lion-284454.shtml |
| 04:03.33 | starseeker | brlcad: I'm going to go ahead and commit - there may need to be a few tweaks to handle some character displays, but that's going to be much easier to sort out with everything in place - basically, it looks good |
| 04:04.25 | minichrispy | brlcad: any way to fix this? |
| 04:04.48 | brlcad | minichrispy: yes, did you not read that? |
| 04:05.04 | brlcad | open source requires LOTS of reading :) |
| 04:05.40 | minichrispy | i have xquartz though, is there something else i need? |
| 04:08.22 | starseeker | I take it xquartz is now installing into /opt ? |
| 04:09.13 | Notify | 03BRL-CAD:starseeker * 53846 (brlcad/trunk/doc/docbook/system/man1/en/CMakeLists.txt brlcad/trunk/src/conv/CMakeLists.txt brlcad/trunk/src/conv/iges/CMakeLists.txt): ----------- |
| 04:09.35 | starseeker | caen23: OK, I've applied your src/conv docbook conversion with r53846 |
| 04:09.41 | brlcad | unfortunately, that's one of the locations we definitely should not be looking in by default |
| 04:09.54 | brlcad | that's a pandora's box location |
| 04:10.07 | starseeker | <snort> time to sort out Tk aqua then |
| 04:10.46 | brlcad | starseeker: what about just setting global ldflag/cppflags |
| 04:10.51 | starseeker | caen23: there's a little gotcha that happens when doing that sort of conversion - you may find the man pages in src/conv got overwritten by the DocBook output, and will need to be reverted |
| 04:10.59 | brlcad | forgets the magic foo to do that |
| 04:11.15 | starseeker | brlcad: maybe... I think I do try to pull in ENV settings somewhere |
| 04:11.22 | starseeker | brlcad: poorly tested though |
| 04:11.36 | brlcad | i meant a build in -DCMAKE... |
| 04:11.49 | brlcad | it's like CMAKE_COMPILER_FLAGS or something |
| 04:11.55 | starseeker | either way, it's trouble - pretty much "by definition" we can't work out of the box on OSX now |
| 04:12.14 | caen23 | starseeker: hmm… i don't really know how that would happen. doclifter produces a .xml, the files inside src/conv are .1 :-? |
| 04:12.16 | starseeker | brlcad: ah - I don't know, we pretty thoroughly overwrite that with the compiler flags macros |
| 04:12.35 | brlcad | well, we can -- it should have disabled X11 |
| 04:12.45 | brlcad | it failed to do that correctly for whatever reason |
| 04:13.11 | brlcad | smells a GCI task |
| 04:13.22 | starseeker | caen23: it's not anything you would have done - the CMake build of BRL-CAD makes extensive use of symlinks to avoid stale copies of files in the build directory (i.e. you can edit a man page in your build dir and it will symlink through back to the source dir) |
| 04:13.39 | *** join/#brlcad acwilson (~Alex@adsl-184-47-48-4.asm.bellsouth.net) |
| 04:13.57 | starseeker | caen23: that has the charming little side effect of having DocBook output from xml writing back into the source directory's .1 original, if you have both building at the same time |
| 04:14.39 | starseeker | caen23: I've actually found that effect very useful in making sure that we don't leave old copies of man pages around when doing DocBook conversion, but it's a bit of a head scratcher if you're running into it for the first time |
| 04:15.14 | caen23 | starseeker: oh, now i see. btw, it's awesome that you applied the conversion and i can't wait to give you the rest :D |
| 04:15.16 | brlcad | minichrispy: what did you cmake summary look like? |
| 04:15.41 | starseeker | caen23: can you update cleanly? I'd like you to take a look at the man page output if you can |
| 04:16.08 | caen23 | starseeker: let me run a svn up |
| 04:16.31 | minichrispy | brlcad: where would i find that? |
| 04:16.50 | starseeker | brlcad: building without X11 on OSX by default is a very technical definition of "working" |
| 04:17.09 | starseeker | I agree it should build, but OSX users without any GUIs are not going to be impressed users :-/ |
| 04:17.47 | caen23 | starseeker: `svn up` seems to conflict with the xmls i've modified |
| 04:17.59 | brlcad | minichrispy: tail -64 path/to/builddir/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log |
| 04:18.10 | *** join/#brlcad crdueck (~cdk@24.212.219.10) |
| 04:18.23 | starseeker | caen23: did you modify your own conversion files to build strict? |
| 04:18.48 | brlcad | starseeker: sure, but if they're building manually, we can add a couple steps to install Xquartz and set a path later |
| 04:19.05 | starseeker | caen23: go ahead and keep your local mods, then do an svn diff to see what the difference is |
| 04:19.09 | brlcad | the default should work just so we don't look bad :) |
| 04:19.12 | starseeker | (i.e. pick mc) |
| 04:20.04 | starseeker | brlcad: sure, it's worth fixing |
| 04:20.12 | minichrispy | brlcad: tail: path/to/builddir/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log: No such file or directory ??? |
| 04:20.26 | starseeker | brlcad: are you saying our *build* process (or configure process) would obtain and install Xquartz? |
| 04:21.01 | brlcad | minichrispy: you have to put the right path |
| 04:21.04 | Notify | 03BRL-CAD:brlcad * 53847 brlcad/trunk/TODO: two more cmake tasks, global flags and disabling IF_X |
| 04:21.19 | brlcad | path/to/builddir is not something you'll have .... |
| 04:21.30 | brlcad | i have no idea where your build dir is |
| 04:21.36 | brlcad | it's wherever you ran cmake |
| 04:21.44 | minichrispy | ah |
| 04:22.00 | caen23 | starseeker: i ran a svn diff src/conv/bot_dump.1 |
| 04:22.11 | brlcad | starseeker: heck no, just our instructions |
| 04:22.37 | brlcad | few mac users will compile from source if we keep up the fancy new installer updates |
| 04:22.39 | starseeker | sighs - brlcad and starseeker appear to have very different basic approaches to configuration and compilation - starseeker almost never overrides C flags in the environment |
| 04:22.47 | starseeker | brlcad: point |
| 04:22.47 | brlcad | the ones that will are going to be contributors |
| 04:23.24 | starseeker | caen23: that was what I was saying earlier - you may need to revert the .1 files in src/conv |
| 04:23.41 | brlcad | starseeker: i'm not aware of a single IDE that doesn't let you set cflags/cppflags/ldflags |
| 04:23.47 | brlcad | it's not an override, it's just setting flags |
| 04:23.51 | minichrispy | brlcad: is this the summary? http://pastebin.mozilla.org/1964969 |
| 04:24.17 | starseeker | brlcad: I'm not saying it's an incorrect approach, it's just something I almost never do outside of the configure mechanisms (either autotools or cmake) |
| 04:24.20 | brlcad | minichrispy: yes |
| 04:24.36 | starseeker | brlcad: that's why I don't have it sorted properly yet in CMake :-/ |
| 04:24.55 | caen23 | starseeker: i'm now at revision 53847 |
| 04:25.08 | starseeker | caen23: try the following if you need to: svn revert -R src/conv |
| 04:25.11 | brlcad | take a random piece of software from linux to just about any other operating system and you almost always HAVE to set a flag or remove a flag |
| 04:25.31 | brlcad | because that's just not something 75% of hobby devs do |
| 04:26.12 | starseeker | 's stance is if the flag is needed to build on that OS, it's something the build system needs to know |
| 04:26.47 | starseeker | caen23: were you able to build btclsh? |
| 04:26.49 | brlcad | except you complain and blame the OS every time i've pointed out a new environment that fails :P |
| 04:26.55 | caen23 | starseeker: yes |
| 04:27.29 | brlcad | still build systems change, eventually it'll be wrong or it'll be something we don't have access to |
| 04:27.31 | starseeker | caen23: OK - go ahead and build the docs again with the lastest revision, and see if brlman works |
| 04:27.37 | brlcad | but the person running the build system does, and they need that hook |
| 04:28.07 | starseeker | brlcad: 'course I complain - after 40 years they should all be on the same page now :-P |
| 04:29.02 | brlcad | even linux has changed dozens of times just over the past decade |
| 04:29.31 | GrantMercer015 | SunOS looks pretty cool |
| 04:29.47 | brlcad | when we find something is commonly needed/new/whatever, we fold it into the build |
| 04:30.16 | brlcad | until we do or when we're ignorant of that flag or have no need/want for it, global flags can be set/appended |
| 04:31.00 | brlcad | i'm certain cmake has the option, I've read about it and used it before .. but whether we override instead of appending is another issue |
| 04:31.09 | starseeker | brlcad: I'm pretty sure it can be supported - it's just a question of the proper logic in the CompileFlags macros (depending on whether you want those flags to apply to src/other as well) |
| 04:31.44 | starseeker | brlcad: but the smarter thing to do would be to have you prepare a few examples of things you would expect to work - I'm not going to be good at coming up with scenarios |
| 04:32.02 | brlcad | i'd first see what cmake provides |
| 04:32.17 | brlcad | i know what I want and I can't have that |
| 04:32.30 | starseeker | build time overriding? |
| 04:32.37 | brlcad | ;) |
| 04:32.57 | brlcad | configure-time will work |
| 04:33.02 | GrantMercer015 | will die attempting to find this string of data to sort before giving up |
| 04:33.05 | brlcad | just means it can't be per target or subdir |
| 04:33.36 | brlcad | GrantMercer015: so i peeked and the value is the filename, note the file open earlier in that function where argv[1] is opened for writing |
| 04:33.41 | brlcad | then the contents are written out |
| 04:34.22 | starseeker | brlcad: just edit CMakeFiles/librt.dir/flags.make (or whatever the target is) if you want to locally futz with the flags |
| 04:34.28 | brlcad | then it sorts if it's not a SOL_TABLE or a REG_TABLE |
| 04:34.42 | brlcad | starseeker: yeah, that's what I do |
| 04:35.06 | brlcad | just terribly less efficient and isn't available in some places for some reason |
| 04:35.16 | brlcad | some targets it's not broken out into a separate file like that |
| 04:35.23 | starseeker | really |
| 04:35.25 | starseeker | weird |
| 04:35.26 | brlcad | and you can't override some things |
| 04:35.30 | brlcad | like the compiler itself |
| 04:35.36 | brlcad | needed that just a couple days ago |
| 04:35.42 | starseeker | yeah, that's a deliberate design decision IIRC |
| 04:36.07 | brlcad | cmake detected that I was compiling through ccache, needed to compile a subdir without ccache but the compiler was hard-coded into a ton of files |
| 04:36.31 | brlcad | nah, I don't buy that -- just the simple thing to do |
| 04:36.51 | starseeker | if you switch the compiler though, all the configure test results are now suspect |
| 04:37.01 | starseeker | as in "those results may not apply to this compiler" |
| 04:37.15 | brlcad | I'm not technically switching the compiler |
| 04:37.33 | brlcad | i'm changing the name of the thing being invoked, sure |
| 04:37.58 | starseeker | as soon as that name changes though, all bets are off |
| 04:37.59 | brlcad | mighty high horse there to assume anything |
| 04:38.09 | starseeker | eh? |
| 04:38.30 | brlcad | if they did it intentionally, it would be rather presumptuous |
| 04:38.40 | brlcad | you could make that claim for changing *anything* |
| 04:38.46 | caen23 | starseeker: is it ok if i run 'make' inside system in the build dir? |
| 04:38.51 | starseeker | sure |
| 04:39.03 | brlcad | but they don't -- it's just something not provided |
| 04:39.06 | starseeker | caen23: that's what you do if you just want to build a subset of the build |
| 04:39.08 | brlcad | like I said, the simple thing to do |
| 04:39.29 | brlcad | it would have required a fair bit of infrastructure to variablize everything |
| 04:39.40 | caen23 | starseeker: i know, but would that subset suffice for running btlman? |
| 04:39.44 | starseeker | brlcad: <shrug> I guess I saw it as the conservative thing to do, but I'm sure you're right that it was the simple choice |
| 04:39.57 | starseeker | caen23: no - you'll need to build btclsh as well |
| 04:40.24 | starseeker | caen23: the docs can be built without requiring brlman be present and working, so it's not a dependency |
| 04:40.35 | brlcad | there job is to be as flexible as possible, and they already go to pretty extreme lengths to be flexible |
| 04:40.51 | caen23 | starseeker: but from the docs, all i need is system, right? |
| 04:40.55 | brlcad | just not quite as far as the main one they're replacing |
| 04:40.57 | starseeker | right |
| 04:41.09 | brlcad | they'll get there eventually I bet |
| 04:41.43 | starseeker | brlcad: hopefully - I'd like to avoid major build system fun for at least another decade or so... |
| 04:42.13 | starseeker | caen23: your new man pages are all in system, so for the moment that's the focus of interest |
| 04:42.32 | minichrispy | so where do i go from here? |
| 04:43.09 | starseeker | brlcad: could he just symlink /opt/X11 to /usr/X11 ? |
| 04:43.15 | caen23 | starseeker: sorry, i'm a bit tired, so could you please paint me again the big picture? what am i trying to accomplish now? |
| 04:43.29 | brlcad | starseeker: oh, good idea |
| 04:43.36 | starseeker | caen23: you can get some sleep if you want ;-) |
| 04:43.52 | brlcad | i was going to say turn off x11 since it's secondary to the exercise |
| 04:44.03 | caen23 | starseekr: school starts in an hour :D |
| 04:44.14 | starseeker | caen23: the "big picture" was to build your new docbook man pages, then take a look at the output with bin/brlman to see if there are any content problems |
| 04:44.32 | starseeker | comgeom-g looks like it has a few things that didn't translate right into "man page" format |
| 04:44.36 | starseeker | (for example) |
| 04:45.13 | starseeker | probably just needs some special characters or quoting or some such - main goal is just to make sure the new man pages are readable and didn't lose content |
| 04:45.27 | starseeker | caen23: uh oh |
| 04:45.32 | caen23 | starseeker: alright, then. thanks. |
| 04:46.03 | starseeker | caen23: no need to push yourself to collapse - we'll be here |
| 04:46.55 | caen23 | starseeker: :d |
| 04:46.58 | starseeker | minichrispy: try doing this "ln -s /opt/X11 /usr/X11" and try cmake again |
| 04:48.18 | starseeker | minichrispy: we apparently need to test the "no X11" build scenario again, but that's outside your scope |
| 04:49.58 | minichrispy | starseeker: k, its running through cmake now |
| 04:50.28 | brlcad | caen23: marked your task as closed |
| 04:50.38 | caen23 | brlcad: thanks |
| 04:50.43 | brlcad | grab the xml one |
| 04:51.29 | caen23 | done |
| 04:53.37 | minichrispy | starseeker: its done |
| 04:53.47 | starseeker | caen23: one you post your article/system patches, I can give those a go as well |
| 04:53.57 | starseeker | minichrispy: did it succeed? |
| 04:54.16 | minichrispy | the cmake worked before, it was the make command that had the error |
| 04:54.17 | *** join/#brlcad elf_ (~elf@p5.eregie.pub.ro) |

| 04:55.47 | starseeker | scowls at Bullet and makes a note to wrap those header includes to shush them... |
| 04:55.59 | GrantMercer015 | ok, so i found that tabptr opens up argv[1] and writes to it, i also know that each line written using fprint specifies two numbers, one negative one positive. If the 2nd field was sorted in the system call, then the print statements would be executed upside down starting with -1 ending with -8. The system call specifies numerical values which line up with the two numbers specified before the |
| 04:55.59 | GrantMercer015 | line is executed, dear god i think im near the solution |
| 04:57.20 | minichrispy | starseeker: supposedly it compiles it, as per the instructions here: http://brlcad.org/wiki/Compiling |
| 04:57.58 | starseeker | minichrispy: but does it succeed now? |
| 04:58.31 | minichrispy | last time it failed around 29%, its at 21% now |
| 04:59.03 | caen23 | starseeker: when i try to run `svn diff` on system, i get "svn: Directory 'brlcad/doc/docbook/system/man1/en/dxf' is missing" |

| 05:00.10 | starseeker | if so, try "svn revert doc/docbook/system/man1/en/dxf" |
| 05:03.17 | minichrispy | nvm, last time it failed at 35% and it just failed again at the same spot. I noticed i was getting loads of warnings though throughout the whole process, and the first errors appear at 35% |

| 05:06.50 | starseeker | minichrispy: did you clear your build directory when you ran CMake after doing the /usr/X11 symlink? |
| 05:07.01 | starseeker | minichrispy: if not, try doing that and running CMake from a clean directory |
| 05:07.08 | minichrispy | yes, i deleted everything in it before running |
| 05:07.12 | starseeker | nuts |
| 05:07.27 | caen23 | i think i'll take a break now, but i've uploaded articles.patch and system.patch to gci, just in case |
| 05:07.32 | minichrispy | am i not supposed to be compiling it using xcode? |
| 05:07.36 | starseeker | caen23: awesome, thanks! |
| 05:07.56 | starseeker | minichrispy: it won't matter - without X11 detection, xcode will fail the same way make is failing |
| 05:08.10 | minichrispy | =/ |
| 05:08.16 | starseeker | minichrispy: you're apparently one of the first people to try BRL-CAD compilation on the latest OSX |

| 05:09.32 | brlcad | cache file |
| 05:09.37 | brlcad | didn't blow it away? |
| 05:09.37 | starseeker | when you run cmake, add the following build option: -DBRLCAD_ENABLE_X11=OFF |
| 05:09.42 | brlcad | or that |
| 05:09.58 | starseeker | brlcad: cleared the build directory first, apparently... |
| 05:10.05 | brlcad | ah, hrm |
| 05:10.23 | brlcad | something to investigate when we can get a login on a 10.8 system |
| 05:10.46 | GrantMercer015 | brlcad, do you know how i would access the file im modifying so i can see how it originall works? src/libged/tables.c |
| 05:10.54 | starseeker | scowls at Apple... bad as friggin Windows machines when it comes to new version breakage... |
| 05:10.58 | brlcad | minichrispy: yeah, just disable X11 (don't need to include that in the instructions, we'll sort it out later) |
| 05:10.59 | GrantMercer015 | i think i'm nearing the completion of the task |

| 12:54.39 | starseeker | caen23: did you want to rework the article and system patches, or are they ready to go? |
| 12:55.22 | caen23 | starseeker: i've uploaded them to gci, you can check them out to see if they're fine |
| 12:57.02 | starseeker | righto |
| 13:05.13 | starseeker | caen23: I see you've deleted the author info in the man pages - does DocBook 5 not allow for authorship information? |
| 13:07.29 | caen23 | starseeker: i was just thinking about that. i think because of the manpage structure, the info is simply floating around at the end of a file, and it caused an error. i did most of the check by converting to pdf and seeing what it looked like, and the author info did not appear anywhere, so i simply removed them. but i now figure out that it probably breaks the manpage, if they're synced |
| 13:10.03 | caen23 | starseeker: hmm… i now think a better solution would have been wrapping the <info> block inside a <refsect1> :-? |
| 13:14.36 | starseeker | caen23: not sure yet - messages like this are probably a hint: |
| 13:14.39 | starseeker | Warn: meta author : no refentry/info/author 3ptarb |
| 13:15.15 | starseeker | so it's looking for author info somewhere, just not sure exactly where it needs to go yet |
| 13:15.24 | starseeker | I gotta run - back on in an hour or two |
| 13:15.43 | starseeker | caen23: maybe see if someone has an example docbook5 manpage with author info that can give us a hint? |
| 13:17.25 | caen23 | starseeker: i tried putting it somewhere else, too, but if i move it in the meta section, doesn't it disappear from manpage? |
| 13:22.18 | caen23 | starseeker: hmm… it appears that wrapping the <info> inside a <refsect1> is the way to go. that's how man1/bot_dump.xml does, for example |
| 14:06.02 | starseeker | caen23: if that works, go for it |
| 14:06.31 | starseeker | does that clear the "meta author" warnings? |
| 14:07.46 | caen23 | starseeker: hmm… i didn't pay attention, but right now, the only working i get is "Warn: meta manual : using "BRL-CAD" for "manual" g-acad" |
| 14:07.58 | caen23 | only warning*, not working :D |
| 14:08.44 | starseeker | caen23: yeah, saw that one too... |
| 14:09.08 | starseeker | caen23: what do you see if you build 3ptarb_man_mann in doc/docbook/system/man/mann/en ? |
| 14:09.22 | starseeker | (I think that's the target name...) |
| 14:11.43 | caen23 | i ran a make on the mann dir, and after fixing 3ptarb with the <refsection> block, i now only seem to get "Note: Writing 3ptarb.nged". no other warnings :-? |
| 14:12.39 | starseeker | sweet |
| 14:12.49 | starseeker | that's a good solution then |
| 14:13.56 | caen23 | okay then :D should i submit system/man1 when it's done, so you can have a look at it? |
| 14:15.37 | starseeker | sure |
| 14:16.21 | starseeker | what's that URL again? |
| 14:16.42 | caen23 | starseeker: http://www.google-melange.com/gci/task/view/google/gci2012/7950213 |
| 14:17.05 | caen23 | and… this seems to be how we fix the other warning i posted earlier: http://www.docbook.org/tdg5/en/html/refmiscinfo.html |
| 14:17.25 | starseeker | caen23: cool |
| 14:20.01 | caen23 | yep, that does cause the other warning to go away |

| 14:32.48 | brlcad | starseeker: no love for whitespace separation? |
| 14:33.13 | starseeker | brlcad: hmm? Did I mess up something? |
| 14:34.06 | brlcad | hm? no, just wondering |
| 14:34.08 | brlcad | you removed all of the lines that broke up the various sections in the template |
| 14:34.39 | brlcad | maybe some tool did that? |
| 14:35.06 | starseeker | oh - that was just caen23's local TEMPLATE.xml changes |
| 14:35.24 | brlcad | so caen23 has no love for whitespace separation |
| 14:35.36 | starseeker | didn't worry too much one way or the other - do you want me to be more picky about that? |
| 14:35.45 | brlcad | no, no |
| 14:35.55 | starseeker | would prefer an astyle type tool that we could run on the XML - any candidates? |
| 14:35.56 | brlcad | it was just curious whether that was something intentional or automatic |
| 14:36.18 | brlcad | there's probably a tidyxml or similar tool somewhere |
| 14:36.46 | brlcad | tidyhtml back in the day was the go-to |
| 14:37.48 | starseeker | tidy.sf.net? |
| 14:38.02 | starseeker | sees if it will compile... |
| 14:38.27 | brlcad | the template should just be as simple to read as possible, regardless of what style we want everywhere else |
| 14:38.32 | brlcad | hopefully those needs aren't disjoint ;) |
| 14:38.39 | brlcad | shouldn't be |
| 14:39.16 | brlcad | I tried to make it minimal so that it included enough useful examples without too much distraction |
| 14:39.33 | brlcad | an image, a list, an intro, multiple sections, authorship,.. |
| 14:39.57 | brlcad | this is a little freaky that more than a third of our tasks are claimed |
| 14:40.29 | starseeker | fortunately DocBook is an endless supply of work... |
| 14:40.50 | brlcad | I doubt that :) |
| 14:41.04 | brlcad | realizes he forgot to add the spelling tasks |
| 14:41.40 | starseeker | ok, it just *seems* endless :-P |
| 14:48.28 | starseeker | brlcad: I don't suppose you have a tidy config file laying around that generates formatting output you like? |
| 15:05.13 | brlcad | starseeker: nope |
| 15:05.24 | starseeker | k |
| 15:05.30 | brlcad | I don't really have strong preferences when it comes to xml |
| 15:05.37 | brlcad | there are lots of exceptions to most rules |
| 15:05.55 | starseeker | nods |
| 15:06.14 | starseeker | apparently tiny isn't a big fan of blank lines between sections... |
| 15:06.38 | brlcad | yeah, most automatic formatters will eliminate them |
| 15:06.49 | brlcad | would have to be docbook-aware |
| 15:07.06 | starseeker | grumble |
| 15:07.34 | brlcad | be careful to check the output if it's applied to any xml that has "preformatted" sections like command transcripts or screen captures |
| 15:07.43 | brlcad | to make sure it doesn't hose them |
| 15:07.47 | starseeker | suppose tiny could be forked into tinydocbook or some such... |
| 15:08.07 | brlcad | you know, you could just make a gci task for that, let someone else play with it |
| 15:08.58 | starseeker | nods - not sure it's worth it though - tiny chopped up a literal layout section good |
| 15:09.27 | starseeker | probably right that we would need something DocBook aware, and that's no 2 hour job... |

| 21:00.43 | brlcad | but you can change it on the command line or leave off the -m and it'll throw you into your default EDITOR |
| 21:01.32 | brlcad | the commit message should say whatever the source diff doesn't say (which is usually a summary of 'what' and almost always 'why') |
| 21:02.00 | brlcad | leaving a comment on the gci task is fine, it's just to let any of the other mentors know that you already committed it |
| 21:02.34 | brlcad | you could even say that, "since I was granted commit access, this change was applied in r#####" |
| 21:02.58 | brlcad | but a simple "committed in r#####" suffices too |

| 23:14.13 | caen23 | but en/mged01 has the same structure and it doesn't complain |
| 23:14.34 | GrantMercer015 | i could use some help coming up with a method for a sorting method for my on-going task |
| 23:15.15 | GrantMercer015 | i found that the the strings i need to sort are written using fprintf(const * char), so my guess is to make an array of strings and use qsort to sort the array |
| 23:15.32 | caen23 | starseeker: perhaps they've been suppressed somehow in en? |
| 23:15.47 | brlcad | GrantMercer015: http://www.anyexample.com/programming/c/qsort__sorting_array_of_strings__integers_and_structs.xml |
| 23:15.47 | GrantMercer015 | im having trouble thinking of how i would parse the string so i could access the second variable in the string in order to sort |
| 23:15.59 | brlcad | everything you need should be in there |
| 23:16.21 | starseeker | hrm |
| 23:16.40 | brlcad | you need a two dimensional array of strings |
| 23:17.29 | bhlegm | brlcad i went to school |
| 23:17.42 | caen23 | starseeker: i'm sorry, i wasn't paying attention. it's alright, i'll fix es |
| 23:17.51 | brlcad | bhlegm: how dare you! |
| 23:17.59 | bhlegm | my dad forced me :( |
| 23:18.10 | starseeker | caen23: eh? |
| 23:19.07 | GrantMercer015 | yea, i've figured that part out. I also found the file that i need to sort, so my plan is to copy each line of the file into a 2d array into and send it to qsort to sort. But my question would be what about the lines that dont contain numbers? will qsort have an error for those? |
| 23:19.10 | GrantMercer015 | example: |
| 23:19.11 | starseeker | caen23: that first one in the first lesson looks like a period outside the paragraph... |
| 23:19.41 | brlcad | { { "col1row1", "col2row1", "col3row1" }, { "col1row2", "col2row2", "col3row2" } } |
| 23:20.38 | brlcad | lines without numbers will end up being empty or null fields in your 2d array, now? |
| 23:21.11 | GrantMercer015 | so if i have a line saying: "5 -4 user : %s\n"" |
| 23:21.34 | GrantMercer015 | i parse the 5 into col1row1, -4 into col2row1 and the rest into col3row1? |
| 23:22.20 | GrantMercer015 | actually, that wouldnt quite make sense with my logic |
| 23:22.53 | starseeker | brlcad: did you see this back in August? http://www.3dcadtips.com/open-source-cad-another-perspective/ |
| 23:23.03 | starseeker | caen23: good to go? |
| 23:23.25 | GrantMercer015 | i was thinking have char * Arr[] = { {contents of line1}, {contents of line2} } and pick the individual line apart during the sort function |
| 23:23.52 | caen23 | starseeker: figured it out, thanks :D btw, did my message not show up, because i've only just received the last 15 messages or so, in one shot |
| 23:24.17 | starseeker | which message? in IRC? |

| 23:25.08 | caen23 | it's okay, then :) back to work |
| 23:25.26 | starseeker | heh - yeah, IRC will occasionally be a bit quirky |
| 23:25.45 | *** join/#brlcad dtidrow (~dtidrow@c-68-84-167-135.hsd1.mi.comcast.net) |
| 23:26.24 | starseeker | caen23: commit messages are sometimes even quirkier in channel, since they rely on an email system generating a mail and then ``Erik's lisp minions doing some crunching |
| 23:28.04 | brlcad | starseeker: I think I did, but it's a good refresher either way |
| 23:28.31 | brlcad | GrantMercer015: what you first said, yes |
| 23:28.42 | brlcad | because that's exactly what the command-line 'sort' tool does |
| 23:29.18 | brlcad | you could do your other idea with a 1D array with each entry being the line from the file |
| 23:29.35 | brlcad | but, like you note, writing that sorting function is going to be a little more tricky |
| 23:29.42 | brlcad | a whole lot easier book-keeping though |
| 23:29.55 | brlcad | bhlegm: fixing the user-dirs |
| 23:30.55 | bhlegm | thanks |
| 23:32.37 | Notify | 03BRL-CAD:carlmoore * 53880 brlcad/trunk/src/proc-db/pyramid.c: fix Glassner spelling |
| 23:32.44 | Notify | 03BRL-CAD:brlcad * 53881 (brlcad/trunk/NEWS brlcad/trunk/src/tclscripts/archer/ArcherCore.tcl): fix the deprecation error reported by hsrai on the brlcad-users mailing list where he noticed a deprecation error when he selected File->New and created a new database. it was using the old Db interface. make it use the new ged interface. |
| 23:36.02 | brlcad | bhlegm: should be working now |
| 23:36.21 | bhlegm | thanks :) |
| 23:36.27 | bhlegm | oh |
| 23:36.45 | bhlegm | could i have read access to wherever the current gallery is? |
| 23:36.55 | bhlegm | if it's on here |
| 23:39.34 | Notify | 03BRL-CAD:caen23 * 53882 (brlcad/trunk/doc/docbook/lessons/es/mged01_crear_figuras_primitivas.xml brlcad/trunk/doc/docbook/lessons/es/mged02_opciones_vistas.xml and 3 others): lessons/es is now XML valid (GCI Task) |
| 23:42.53 | starseeker | nice! - looks like it's down to just the Vol4 tutorial book, based on what I'm seeing here |
| 23:43.44 | starseeker | brlcad: what do you think? - Vol4 as its own task? |
| 23:44.02 | *** join/#brlcad minichrispy (b82f2fc7@gateway/web/freenode/ip.184.47.47.199) |
| 23:46.37 | starseeker | estimate about 50 errors in VolIV |
| 23:47.00 | brlcad | bhlegm: what kind of access? |
| 23:47.39 | brlcad | yeah, that's a good one |
| 23:47.40 | *** join/#brlcad iwanmanew (~iwanmanew@94.236.208.130) |
| 23:48.03 | starseeker | brlcad: so caen23 should mark this task as done? |
| 23:48.26 | brlcad | yep |
| 23:48.43 | brlcad | caen23: mention that actual task url in your commit message |
| 23:48.57 | starseeker | (next time) |
| 23:48.59 | bhlegm | enough so i can see the tables on the database that gallery uses |
| 23:49.30 | brlcad | bhlegm: ah, you'll have to log into a different machine for that |
| 23:50.14 | GrantMercer015 | brlcad: i got my example program working with qsort but im only able to sort using the firt field because strcmp reaches that first, how can i make strcmp ignore the first number and sort using the second number? |
| 23:50.36 | starseeker | caen23: once VolumeIV is delt with, what sounds interesting? Did you want to do for src/fb, src/util, etc. what you did for src/conv? (now that you've got the hang of it) or did you want to do something else? |
| 23:50.51 | GrantMercer015 | the lines contain like such "num numiNeedToSort DataforFile" |
| 23:51.00 | starseeker | caen23: just askinso we get a sense of what tasks to have ready |
| 23:51.38 | starseeker | GrantMercer015: remember the links I pasted yesterday giving an overview of string comparison functions? |
| 23:53.27 | starseeker | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_string_handling#Functions |
| 23:54.09 | GrantMercer015 | i do and i looked over them, but i need to sort the second char in the string instead of the first. I looked over the link and didnt find anything like that |
| 23:54.47 | *** join/#brlcad maths22 (~maths22@c-50-141-159-74.hsd1.il.comcast.net) |
| 23:55.04 | starseeker | GrantMercer015: so if you want to compare three characters of two strings starting with the second character in each, you'll use a combinatoin of strncmp and adding offsets to the string char* address |
| 23:55.32 | caen23 | starseeker: haven't put much thought into it, but at some point i was interested in the "set up svnplot" one |
| 23:55.54 | brlcad | http://www.google-melange.com/gci/task/view/google/gci2012/7994222 |
| 23:56.37 | starseeker | GrantMercer015: this might be helpful: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/256218/the-simplest-way-of-printing-a-portion-of-a-char-in-c |
| 23:56.53 | brlcad | yeah, give someone else a go at the other manual pages ;) |
| 23:57.39 | starseeker | GrantMercer015: you'll be doing something other than using printf, but look at how they are addressing parts of a astring |
| 23:58.27 | brlcad | GrantMercer015: you have to increment the pointer to the field of interest to make strcmp work |
| 23:58.30 | GrantMercer015 | raises his hands in disbelief, he has solved the problem! |
| 23:59.10 | starseeker | caen23: but if the weeks go by and nobody else grabs the other man page conversions tasks, feel free to pick 'em off while your skills are fresh :-P |
| 23:59.18 | GrantMercer015 | whats the brlcad vm password? |
| 23:59.24 | minichrispy | brlcad: ive installed mac os x snow leopard on another partition, and now im downloading a compatible version of xcode as well as all the cmake/brlcad tools. hopefully this will work better than mountain lion |
| 23:59.28 | brlcad | and therein is a problem, because you dont' have access to know which field by the time it gets to there |
| 23:59.32 | brlcad | GrantMercer015: beats me |
| 23:59.36 | brlcad | it's in the instructions |
| 23:59.36 | GrantMercer015 | dang it |
