Coding Period


1 June : Today, officially my all exams are over and from now onwards I will give my 100 percent to my GSoC project. I have written TODO tasks for upcoming two weeks.

2 June : I have found a couple of shortcomings bugs in my scripts which I have shared before community bonding period. Also discussed these bugs with my mentor.

3 June : Yesterday, Yorik (my mentor) gave some suggestion that how to fix these bugs. Today, I was trying to make the logic which will work on any type of reinforcement and trying to implement that logic through programming. Also, explored functions like face.normalAt(), face.CenterOfMass().

4 June : Today, I designed the taskpanel UI of straight rebar in Qtcreator by using FreeCAD widgets.

5 June : Today, I have integrated the task panel UI of straight rebar with backend scripts. This script will take input values from task panel and then pass input values to makeStraightRebar() function which will create reinforcement of straight rebar in the structural element. For more detail, here are my commits.
