I am slightly concerned about catching all exceptions this way - I agree
catching std::exception is worthwhile, with the specialisation for sg_exception
since we can provide better logging and reporting, but I really hope no-one is
throwing arbitrary objects not inheriting from std::exception. We used to have
some bad cases of people throwing std::string but I cleaned those up years ago.
I guess it's not that this does any harm (except for more exception handling
overhead, which is probably very low), I just dislike the idea such a thing is
ever needed for us - it's not like we are calling into arbitrary plugin code
which might throw anything.
Kind regards,
James

There are still some catch(...) and catch(std::string/const char*)
around... I just wanted to make sure that no exception will every pass
on to C space, as this leads to undefined behaviour and probably also
a crash. I don't know who will use cppbind to register whatever is
needed in the future, so I think its better to throw a Nasal runtime
error than to let the whole program crash.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] download_and_compile.sh - version 1.9.12 finally ready
Geoff, Thanks for testing this. I left a set -x on line 371 which causes the double output you're seeing on -h. I've removed it. Also, I've changes the svn for plib to http://svn.code.sf.net/p/plib/code/trunk/. OSG and PLIB are slated for different treatment in a future version. If the chosen version of OSG, or the 1.8.5 version of PLIB is installed or previously built, there's no reason to reconfigure or rebuild them. In general, I'd like to be able to detect when git does not add a file to the sources. Then I could condition the configure step on whether its actually needed or not. If I find a way to do that quickly, it could be applied to any component that uses git, not just OSG. I'll be using your approach for plib at least. The latest is still 1.9.12: https://www.gitorious.org/fg/fg-download-and-compile-fgmeta/raw/master:download_and_compile.sh -Pat On Thu, 10 Oct 2013 12:50:15 +0200 Geoff McLane ubu...@geoffair.info wrote: Hi Pat, Finally got a chance to try download_and_compile.sh 1.9.12 from the ...-fgmeta repo... I think you need to adjust the svn repo for plib!

These days I have add plib as a 'system' install... In my makefg, which as you know was based on one of Brisa's original versions, circa Jan 2009, I use script like - # if NO plib installed path from user, and none from # previous configuration file, then if [ -z $INSTALL_DIR_PLIB ]; then # try the 'system' places PLIB_PATH=/usr if [ -f $PLIB_PATH/include/plib/ul.h ]; then show_plib_version $PLIB_PATH PLIB_INSTALL_OK=1 elif [ -f $PLIB_PATH/local/include/plib/ul.h ]; then show_plib_version $PLIB_PATH/local PLIB_INSTALL_OK=1 else PLIB_PATH= fi fi The function 'show_plib_version' just reads the version from the ul.h header... Anyway, just a suggestion... After the above svn correction, the script ran to the end, building fgcom, fgfs, fgrun, openrti, OpenSceneGraph, plib, simgear... great stuff... I only had a chance to try it with the ALL option ;=)) But found out later that is not really 'ALL'. I could add FGX, FGO?, FGCOMGUI, ATLAS and DATA, but I have already done the DATA separately overnight... I will try to get around to trying the others... presently doing -p FGX, but it insists on rebuilding OSG which is slow... One little thing. When I say run it with the -h help option for example my bash shell echos the echo lines, like the script has say - echo Switches: -- October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.
