00:00.49jack``Erik: but why? (macports > fink)
00:01.06jackdo you love fbsd and/or tcl that much?
00:01.17``Erikmore ports, more up to date, and yes, I love fbsd that much
00:01.49jackmore ports is wrong ;) fink has ~10k packages
00:02.17jackyou shouldn't count every variant of a macports package on its own
00:02.19``Erik(a fair bit of the mac's software stack was grabbed from fbsd, and several fbsd developers were hired by apple... it's fairly fbsd)
00:02.28jackof course
00:02.32``Erikwithout variants, macports has 13272
00:02.44jackwow? ok
00:02.51``Erikwell
00:03.06``Erikwait, let me look at the file more carefully, it might not be as sane as the fbsd INDEX-8
00:03.30``Eriksorry, 9618
00:03.42jacksee ;)
00:03.47jackstill not bad
00:04.53``Erikdamn, there're more keywords tacked in there *hangs head* unless my regex fu is off, only 6636 :(
00:05.16``Erika few years back, macports (or darwinports at the time) was a hair ahead, iirc
00:05.28jackthat's more like what i expected ;)
00:05.46``Erikran both for a while, but macports had everything he wanted, fink did not *shrug* did a slow migration over time
00:06.15jackbut...do they have brlcad? ;p
00:06.18``Erikat the time, my feeling was that fink was kinda on life support
00:06.32jackit's very alive atm
00:06.55``Eriknope, and it doesn't have BRL-CAD, either :D
00:06.58brlcaddo they have "me"?
00:07.03brlcadI sure hope not
00:07.07jack:)
00:07.39``Erikthey went all cher on your ass, dude... <macports (in a horse voice)> I got you, babe!
00:07.52jacki'll call my package brlcad though, not BRL-CAD
00:08.02jackcaps aren't allowed
00:08.16``Erikponders cooking a package for macports... needs to update the fbsd one :/
00:08.35brlcadjack: doc/description.txt talks about the name and ways to use it, recommended reading if you're packaging
00:08.51``Erik7.14.8 had some breakage that prevented sane fbsd porting :/
00:08.55jackbrlcad != good? ok
00:09.21``Erikno, he's not good, he can't even figure out how to migrate servers or get sun machines up... :D *duck*
00:10.02jackphew...imagine 2 cute quotes around my brlcad ;)
00:24.31starseekergroans
00:24.49starseekerrealizes he was an idiot about how he set up the helix angle tilting in the coil tool
00:34.08``Erikheh

00:41.57starseekervastly complicated length calculations needlessly
00:42.19starseekerstarts threading through the logic to fix it...

01:22.56brlcadhehe
01:40.19CIA-85BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r37756 10/brlcad/trunk/src/shapes/coil.c: Start reworking the coil logic to be easier to deal with algorithmically. Plain coil should function but all the endcap types are messed up.
01:46.24CIA-85BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r37757 10/brlcad/trunk/src/shapes/coil.c: Going to need to do a little option reshuffling now that length is going to be a parameter.
04:28.55CIA-85BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r37758 10/brlcad/trunk/src/shapes/coil.c: This seems to fix the squared off coil variation - needs more testing.
04:50.44CIA-85BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r37759 10/brlcad/trunk/src/shapes/coil.c: This should straighten out squared ground cap, which is just squared with subtracting rccs.
05:28.08CIA-85BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r37760 10/brlcad/trunk/src/shapes/coil.c: Ground ends for non-squared working, if helix angle = 0.

14:56.05starseekerIIRC, that has to be an official gentoo dev
14:58.47brlcadso become one ;)

20:51.10CIA-85BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r37771 10/brlcad/trunk/ (configure.ac include/common.h): C99 says uintptr_t is optional, so make sure we provide something. configure has a matching test that should provide a define if the type doesn't exist.

21:10.53CIA-85BRL-CAD: make bu.h include stdint.h in order to get basic int types. this is needed by
21:10.53CIA-85BRL-CAD: the magic number checking, which uses the optional uintptr_t but the checks are
21:10.53CIA-85BRL-CAD: pervasive so it makes the most sense to include it here or in common.h
21:12.52CIA-85BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r37775 10/brlcad/trunk/include/magic.h:
21:12.52CIA-85BRL-CAD: size_t will not necessarily be big enough to hold a pointer address. on current
21:12.52CIA-85BRL-CAD: uniform memory hardware, that's certainly a reasonable assumption, but not
21:12.52CIA-85BRL-CAD: necessarily with 16-bit systems and not with fragmented/partitioned memory
21:12.53CIA-85BRL-CAD: systems. instead, use the c99-optional-but-we-provide-it-regardless uintptr_t
21:12.53CIA-85BRL-CAD: type which is specifically for holding a pointer address value.
21:17.46CIA-85BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r37776 10/brlcad/trunk/src/libbu/ (bomb.c crashreport.c): apparently the cast is not enough to shut gcc 4.1 up from complaining about write/fwrite return values not being checked. this is failure code, we don't care.

21:30.47CIA-85BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r37778 10/brlcad/trunk/src/libbu/htond.c: pull out by_byteorder() from the switch() due to a warning about not being able to inline the function.
21:43.16CIA-85BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r37779 10/brlcad/trunk/include/bu.h: gcc doesn't like this function being declared inline. complains about not being able to find the implementation, so just remove the inline label on the decl (but keep it on the impl).
21:50.57CIA-85BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * r37780 10/brlcad/trunk/src/libbn/ (plot3.c tabdata.c): more fwrite/fscanf unchecked return value warning quelling.
21:50.59CIA-85BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r37781 10/brlcad/trunk/src/shapes/coil.c: This gets pretty close to working ground caps with different helix angles - not quite perfect symmetry between top and bottom, but should be good enough.

22:19.00CIA-85BRL-CAD: to dicate the 1/8 pitch factor is needed at the ends, but in this case the gross
22:19.00CIA-85BRL-CAD: length isn't impacted anyway due to it being a ground coil - just a (slight)
