17:35.47Notify03GCI: Andrei Popescu: Create a Torus Model and Diagram - iming   Sharon, it's best if you log on IRC and ask questions whenever you encounter issues. As for the review part, there isn't a fixed time when mentors review student submissions and it's not only brlcad that can review your work. Also, I believe you can get an e-mail notification... http://www.google-melange.com/gci/task/view/google/gci2012/8059206
17:50.43SilvrousHow do I make a test for a function writing to a file?
17:51.02SilvrousI assume I can't read it as I would a string
17:51.45andreiwhat do you mean?
17:52.12andreiyou want to unit test a function that writes something into a file?
17:52.27Notify03GCI: Sean: Investigate performance of setting thread affinity - read through what bu_parallel() does   You'll need to read through and try to understand what bu_parallel() does, at least for the pthreads case. Pay particular attention to the pthread_create() function and what every parameter means (man pthread_create). http://www.google-melange.com/gci/task/view/google/gci2012/7960222
17:52.38SilvrousI need to unit test test the bu_vls_fwrite function, for instance
17:52.57Silvrousyes
17:53.30andreiwell, you can see what happens if the file pointer is bad(there is no opened file) for example
17:53.45andreiI assume you could write something into a file, then read what you wrote and compare results
17:57.22SilvrousSo I do FILE *f , for instance, call f in the function
17:58.14Silvrousthen how do I read from that?
17:58.24Notify03GCI: Sean: Integrate new thread affinity interface into LIBBU and LIBRT - you may need to take this one step at a time   So know that you may be a little out of your depth taking this task on which is why I was going to do it instead of making it a task anyways, but you're welcome to try.

18:02.09andreione moment, I m looking for exact C syntax
18:02.15andreiI think read and write are the functions
18:02.27andreihttp://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cstdio/fread/
18:02.29andreihere
18:11.45andreiSilvrous: by the way, you should avoid using FILE* as much as possible as it isn't " very portable". However, if the function receives a FILE* parameter there is no simple workaround for that :)
18:13.12SilvrousI'll keep that in mind in future.
18:15.46SilvrousCould I get another extension on this? I've done about 350 lines of code so far, but I've still got about 10 functions left to test, and then debug the whole file.
18:16.09andreiyes, I will extend the deadline now :)

19:20.20brlcadSilvrous: if you need to write to a file, I suggest using bu_temp_file() when you can
19:25.36SilvrousAh, so it won't remain there after the tests are done. Sure.
19:28.12brlcadbe sure to still call fclose() when you're done
19:30.31Notify03BRL-CAD:brlcad * 54067 brlcad/trunk/include/bu.h: the fclose() isn't particularly optional on windows as the program will still have a file handle open
