Rehema Kyeyuneon December 10 2013 22:47 UTCdoing the task

I spent the first day of this task looking up information on bug reports and how to reproduce them . i then attempted to familiarise myself with the sites stated above .


  i then Joined sourceforge and opened up the bugs listed . i then clicked on the open bugs one by one and read comments and their status , i decided to continue on with the bugs only if it showed in the comments that they hadnt been fixed and then attempted to do as the instructions written in the bug report and found that they were indeed bugs.


Some of the instructions were hard to follow as i didnt know the meanings of some words and phrases and i had to first look them up on google or ask people on the internet . I also had to download a few things

Sean on December 11 2013 07:35 UTCPCMan File Manager

I'm not sure what to make of the .docx file that you submitted.  It includes six links to the PCMan File Manager project, which has nothing to do with BRL-CAD and provides no indication what the status of those links are or should be.


As noted in the task description, you're expected to find 5 bugs, any in our tracker that are unonfirmed (most of them), and reproduce the bug.  If you can reproduce it, you leave a comment on the bug and let us know which 5 you confirmed here and how you confirmed each one.

Rehema Kyeyuneon December 11 2013 23:28 UTC

My bad , i missread the instructions .


 


DO I Leave a commernt on the actual bug on the BRL CAD page ?


DO i get a LINK the for the bug i found and post it on here as a document or do i just  type it inot the comment section ?

Rehema Kyeyuneon December 11 2013 23:38 UTCquestion

Do i need to use the first link above (https://sourceforge.net/tracker/? ) for anything . Because i had previously used it to reproduce the bugs i found on it .

Rehema Kyeyuneon December 12 2013 21:06 UTC

this task is too hard , i can hardly follow the instructions ,if this results are wrong then i think i am giving up on it . sorry

Sean on December 27 2013 20:04 UTCquestion

Sharan, nice work but one question regarding your comment on the last one, https://sourceforge.net/p/brlcad/bugs/160/


How exactly were you able to reproduce the bug? It's unclear if you're saying that the command window was still open (in which case MGED was still running) or if you reproduced it by closing both the graphics and command window.


 

Sean on December 27 2013 20:04 UTCTask Closed

Congratulations, this task has been completed successfully.

Sharan Narayanon December 27 2013 20:08 UTCReply

I closed the MGED by pressing the cross or x button of the graphics window and command window


But there was still a black cmd in the background,which is often ignored by most people
