00:07.04pra5adis adding a null char in a static string bad form? (gcc warning)
00:07.34Twingywhy are you doing that?
00:08.06pra5addoes it append a sentinel to the end automagically?
00:08.43Twingystrcpy(string, "blah");  sprintf(string, "%s", "blah"); both append null to the end
00:08.59pra5adthose arent static strings
00:09.08Twingy"blah" is
00:09.33pra5adit's not sprintf that's appending it?
00:09.44Twingyhuh?
00:09.51Twingysprintf add's a null char to the end
00:12.57pra5adalrighty then

01:56.20Maloerangcc shouldn't give a warning for appending a 0 at the end of a string, unless you used NULL which is meant for pointers
01:56.36MaloeranThough of course, by definition of the C standard, you can use 0 for pointers just as much
02:51.05CIA-12BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/libbu/parallel.c: move the bu_param for irix 64 outside the block so it gets defined, also fix a typo in a ppc section where sysctl return value wasn't getting checked correctly

04:31.10pra5adsprintf(str, "something %d\0", intvar); gives a warning w/ Wall
04:32.18pra5adgcc version 4.0.2 20050808 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.0.1-4ubuntu9)
04:39.53MaloeranAh yes, a string litteral is defined as already being null terminated, this extra \0 is very pointless...
04:40.29pra5adat compiler time, yes?
04:41.21pra5adguess i didn't parse correctly what justin was saying

04:43.00pra5ad``Erik, did u make the opengl.m4 updates yet?
04:43.07MaloeranHe meant that sprintf() appends a \0 too
04:46.31pra5adinteresting

15:10.40brlcadrtarea will provide presented area measurements, rtweight will give weight/volume/moments measurements, g_qa as well
15:11.35brlcadthe nirt/shoot_ray tool will provide length, thickness, obliquity measurements
15:13.09IngManfor planes,

15:29.35brlcadstill not clear what you are measuring
15:30.52brlcadsi quieres la distancia entre un punto y un objecto, usas nirt
15:31.38IngMana model, i wish see de planes with to limit
15:31.53IngManyo quiero ver los planos de una pieza  acotados
15:33.57brlcadcual planos?
15:34.02brlcadqual
15:34.35brlcadthe bounding box planes?
15:34.37IngManlos de una  pieza
15:35.01brlcadthat doesn't make any sense .. which planes?
15:35.13brlcadi can make a plane anywhere
15:35.30brlcadyou're working in arbitrary 3-space
15:37.14IngManpor ejemplo: yo dibujo una cubo,  quiero que me muestre el plano con las cotas de ese cubo
15:37.15brlcadquiza si dibujas lo que estas pensando..
15:37.47IngManeso pense
15:38.01IngMante mando una imagen por mail
15:38.57IngMantu eres morrison
15:38.59brlcadcon una cubo, tendrias que modelar las cotas con algo.. un halfspace object
15:39.00IngMancierto
15:39.04brlcadsi
15:39.33IngMante mando la imagen al mail que un dia me distte
15:39.39brlcadok
15:43.58IngManlisto
15:44.06IngManrevisa a ver si llego
15:45.14brlcadsi, ya llego
15:45.56brlcadaja.. quieres 'annotations'
15:46.24brlcadacotado .. not to the limit but annotated
15:47.54brlcadbrl-cad does not provide that information graphically right now, but it is being worked on
15:49.32brlcadeso es algo que usalmente encuentras con un 'drafting tool' algo que brl-cad no es pero algo useful regardless
15:52.19brlcadit wouldn't be hard to add annotations to mged, but having them dynamically recompute when you change an object is the somewhat harder aspect as it requires parametrics
15:52.45brlcador some viable means to make the annotations associated with the object that they reference
15:52.46IngMan<PROTECTED>
15:53.31brlcadsi, no ayuda directamente
15:53.44brlcadtodavia
15:54.20IngMany digamos, si tu tubieras que hacerlo que harias
15:54.25brlcades algo que tradicionalmente no hemos necesitado
15:55.12IngManpero cualquier otro programa cad lo hace
15:55.32IngMansolid edge solid work
15:56.13brlcadsi, porque incluyen "cadd" computer-assisted design and drafting ..
15:57.14IngManah, y tu que harias en mi caso
15:57.29brlcadno me entiende mal, yo lo quiero tambien ;-)  solo que nadie lo he necesitado antes que convertio al open source
15:57.58IngMana mi me gusta  mas que otros programas
15:58.09IngManpero tengo la necesidad de hacer eso
15:58.31brlcadyo computaria las distancias a mano usando nirt o el bounding box distances
15:59.31brlcadbrl-cad will import annotations from dxf now
15:59.50brlcadso if you happened to compute them in another package, they should show up I think
16:00.39IngMan<PROTECTED>
16:01.52brlcadpersonalment, si yo lo necesitaba, i'd probably modify the sketch primitive to allow an easy means to write text/numbers ;)
16:02.09brlcadyou can get the bounding box of any object/assembly
16:02.28brlcadthat's often what you are annotating, not the individual solids
16:03.19IngManvoy a probar y te cuento como me fue
16:03.39IngManya enpece con lo de las traducciones de los manuales
16:03.57brlcadexcelente
16:04.36IngManaunque la verdad es que no he tenido mucho tiempo libre, pero espero poder ahora que se acabe el semestre
16:05.01brlcadtambien aqui
16:06.09IngMany en que estan trabajando ahora
16:06.32IngMantu trabajas en brlcad de tiempo compreto
16:06.35brlcadestaba trabajando con annotations hace unas semanas -- usando el 'sketch' primitive por un basis
16:06.36IngMancompleto
16:06.49brlcadsi completo
16:07.30IngManque bien
16:07.33brlcadpero eso incluye _mucho_ tiempo gastado en administracion
16:07.56IngMany cuanto pagan, para ver si cuando termine me voy para brlcad
16:08.17brlcadpolitica y reuniones
16:08.38brlcadjeje
16:08.48IngManno es chiste es mi futuro

16:13.40brlcadde Panamá
16:13.51brlcadvivi alli por muchos años
16:14.29brlcadaunque se me va mi español poco a poco cuando no regreso por un tiempo
16:14.59brlcadlo hablo mucho mejor de que lo escribo ;)
16:16.25IngManyo soy de colombia
16:16.42IngMancreo que por ahora me tengo que ir.

16:17.26brlcadhasta luego

16:18.14brlcadta bien
17:01.27``Erikuh, burrito taco spaghetti
17:01.48``Erikhas it hit the wire?
17:08.12brlcadwaiting on the damn irix build to confirm testing
17:08.51brlcadtake a few hours, it's been going for a couple
17:09.24brlcadyou should pimp brl-cad to the .jp sites ;)
17:09.52brlcad~x en jp that would be interesting
17:22.15brlcadi really need to get this whole process fully automated

19:16.10brlcadi'm doing great, how about yourself?
19:16.45xvoomibot is a bot
19:17.13xvoomwhy he have to tell my location
19:17.15brlcad~ibot
19:17.16ibotextra, extra, read all about it, ibot is a blootbot written in perl run by TimRiker on his server. logs on http://ibot.rikers.org/<chan>/ , ibot, jbot, apt are all the same process. It uses sqlite, but mysql or other SQL storage is also supported.
19:17.29xvoomhehe
19:17.35xvoomk
19:17.42brlcadhe didn't tell your location, your IP address did ;)
19:17.57brlcadi was just wondering where .ma was .. neat ;)
19:18.08xvoomlook im looking for information about a cad software named somthing like anthek
19:18.47brlcaddoesn't ring a bell
19:19.13brlcadthis is the channel for a different cad package ..
19:19.34xvoomyes i know
19:20.04xvoomim just wandering about this package
19:20.33xvoomdo u know any site specialized in cad package
19:20.36brlcadthere is the ANTEC plastics conference, somewhat CAD related
19:21.02xvoomu tried to search on google
19:21.41brlcadnot exactly, I'm not the one looking for it ;)
19:22.08brlcada site specialized in cad packages.. hmm
19:22.09brlcadhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAD
19:22.21brlcadthere's a list there somwhere
19:23.12xvoomby the way u coded this package
19:23.15xvoombrlcad
19:23.55brlcadare you asking if I coded brl-cad?
19:24.11brlcadi am one of the core devs
19:24.28brlcadbrl-cad has been under development for over 20 years though too, many people have been involved
19:24.38brlcadmike muuss started the project
19:24.52brlcadhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Muuss
19:25.33xvoomhow is the mathematic underlying it ?
19:26.18brlcadit's foundations are based on mathematical principals, very solid
19:27.11brlcadif you're familiar with ray-tracing, brl-cad's primary ray-tracer is the first distributed raytracer that was ever written
19:27.42xvoomcoool
19:27.43brlcadthe preferred modeling technique of CSG is founded in mathematical principals too
19:28.27xvoomi think i will try it in the future r8 now i must learn some cad
19:29.04brlcadbrl-cad's supported primitves: http://ftp.brlcad.org/tmp/primitives/Primitives3_grouped_labels.png
19:29.40xvooman that mean
19:29.42brlcadbrl-cad is a solid modeler, not a drafting tool like autocad
19:30.00xvoomsorry
19:30.00xvoomwow
19:30.10xvoomi like it
19:30.18xvooma lot man
19:30.55xvoomdo u know of any training for drafting
19:31.06brlcadmore details here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BRL-CAD and here http://brlcad.org under the Documents section
19:31.36brlcadif you're interested in open source drafting, qcad might be a place to look
