Project Report : Check Command and Overlaps Tool

The work done for the project can be split into the following parts:

libanalyze function -- analyze_overlaps and libged command -- check_overlaps

 NOTE: This was later replaced with better code by me ;)
  • The main goal behind adding a check_overlaps command was that libged's rtcheck command acted as a wrapper for the rtcheck program, and ran the rtcheck program with execvp command -- this was not desired as the execution was done in a different process.
  • I added the check_overlaps command which had the same options as rtcheck command and the logic behind shooting of rays was done in libanalyze.
  • The overlaps were processed on libged side with callback functions.
  • The submitted patches were committed by Daniel --
  • I was given commit access to the repo :) and I did the following commits:
  • Documentation work related to check_overlaps -- #497

rtcheck based on libanalyze's analyze_overlaps function

 NOTE: This was later replaced with better code by me ;)
  • Since the logic for shooting the rays was in libanalyze function analyze_overlaps.
  • My next task was to refactor rtcheck program to use analyze_overlaps.
  • #495 was submitted.

libanalyze function for grid generation

overlaps tool based on check.sh

better object selection for overlaps tool

new libanalyze API and check command that uses this API
