Community Bonding

  • May 2
    • Downloaded the source code of the latest revision from svn checkout and got more familiar with subversion.
    • Compiled and built the source both in Ubuntu and Windows (Visual Studio 2010) successfully.
  • May 13
    • Found and fixed a small bug in eto_brep (the rotation axis of eto is wrong), and submitted a patch on sourceforge.net.
  • May 15
    • Modified the eto_brep patch with the test case provided by Cliff.
  • May 16
    • Continued working on the conversion of eto.
    • Tested the brep conversion of hyp, but found the raytrace result of implicit CSG hyp quite strange.
  • May 17
    • The raytrace of implicit hyp is wrong when H is not perpendicular to A.
    • Fixed the conversion to brep of hyp (havn't commited yet).
  • May 18
    • My first SVN Commit: fixed the shearing direction of hyp.

Week 1

  • May 21
    • Fixed the bug of wrong id & od for pipe b-rep, by changing some prevp to curp.
    • Dealt with duplicated points by deleting them from the linklist.
  • May 22
    • Added some control to deal with special cases in pipe_brep.cpp and add a few comments.
  • May 23
    • Read and tried to understood the code in revolve_brep.cpp, but got confused by the implicit definition.
    • Changed the revolution axis and origin of the sketch plane of revolve_brep.
  • May 24
    • Changed the position of the sketch in extrude_brep according to the parameters.
    • Fixed the plane direction of circle arcs in sketch_brep as well as in revolve_brep.
  • May 25
    • Dealt with non-full revolution of revolve_brep. It took a long time to get the expected result, but I got more familiar to NURBS/BREP during that procedure.
  • May 27
    • Tested and examined the implemented brep conversions. Checked the current status of my work.

Week 2

  • May 28
    • Added the implicit -> brep conversion to conversion.sh, so that massive testing will be more convenient.
