This sets an interesting precedent. Do we want third-party documentation in our doc/ directory? I think most of our dependencies retain their documentation in their respective src/other subdirectory. I'd claim that external dependencies are not ours to document; they're merely included for do

I'm fairly well along in my auto-man-page project and am on the final, and most complicated, part: option handling. As my own opt description language gets more complex, I see now that it would be very helpful to use the facilities of the popt option-handling library. Can we go ahead and integrat

[brlcad-devel] Can we get the solids within a tree without extra info?

2013-09-03 Thread phoenix
Hi! I'm implementing rt_comb_brep() which is going to convert a COMB to BREP with NURBS boolean evaluations. But currently I have to pass in a db_i pointer every time because the tree only stores names in its leaves, so we have to look up the database and find the solids referred to in the COMB
