malc_ | tor8: around? | 10:48.11 |
tor8 | morning | 10:48.17 |
malc_ | tor8: hi, are comments allowed inside attribute lists in xml? | 10:49.18 |
tor8 | you mean <tag foo="bar" <-- hi! --> one="two"> ? | 10:49.55 |
| I doubt it | 10:49.58 |
malc_ | aye | 10:50.06 |
| both xmllint and xmlwf do complain about it.. | 10:50.15 |
| sigh.. and i have implemented them and wanted to bitch about your code not being conformant enough.. | 10:50.41 |
tor8 | I don't think it's allowed, and I doubt many parsers can handle it even if it is | 10:50.42 |
| :) | 10:50.53 |
malc_ | mine (well yours in ocaml) can.... | 10:51.00 |
| to be reverted in a jiffy | 10:51.04 |
| that's 25 deletions for me.. cool | 10:52.07 |
| tor8: http://repo.or.cz/w/llpp.git/blob/3dcaa14870c6a3768421b142bbf43b48c5b5100d:/parser.ml i made it sax like though... | 10:52.48 |
chrisl | Robin_Watts: around? | 14:47.42 |
Robin_Watts | just. | 14:49.37 |
chrisl | Only a quicky: is the GoDaddy account really unlimited for downloads? | 14:49.59 |
Robin_Watts | I get picked up in 40 mins :) | 14:50.02 |
| chrisl: Seems so. | 14:50.07 |
chrisl | So we might be able to deprecate the wisc site with that in place. | 14:50.29 |
| Robin_Watts: thanks, I'll let you get back to last minute packing confusion ;-) | 14:52.33 |
Robin_Watts | Just waiting for steam to finish downloading so I can pack the laptop. | 14:52.54 |
chrisl | Poxy, stoopid google - they really are the new Micro$oft :-( | 14:59.13 |
Robin_Watts | Right. powering down. See y'all from hotter climes. Or heathrow. | 15:03.26 |
alexcher | Our mirror of OpenJPEG repository picks just one directory and leaves out all configuration files. Who can comment on this? | 15:11.48 |
henrys | I didn't know we had a mirror, I think it should just be sucked into gs like casper. | 15:19.50 |
| s/casper/jasper | 15:22.54 |
chrisl | henrys: any objections to deprecating the wisc site for Ghostscript/GhostPDL downloads? | 15:25.38 |
henrys | as long as we are braced to handle the downloads. | 15:26.27 |
| where does the download live these days? | 15:26.43 |
chrisl | GoDaddy, which is allegedly unlimited bandwidth | 15:27.06 |
henrys | no objections here. | 15:27.26 |
| is the web page ready? | 15:27.58 |
chrisl | It's up. | 15:28.07 |
henrys | login, password and all that stuff... | 15:28.14 |
| I guess a login isn't needed. | 15:28.32 |
chrisl | Yes, although currently only I know the user name and password | 15:28.37 |
| Yes, for the commercial release | 15:28.52 |
henrys | I don't think there is any security problem with sending it plaintext to staff@artifex.com | 15:29.52 |
chrisl | I was going to do so, but the current username and password are also on casper:/home/customer/access.txt | 15:31.38 |
| Grr, my ssh sessions keep dropping...... | 15:32.12 |
henrys | so just the download is at godaddy right? - we can track stats on ghostscript to see what is getting pulled right? | 15:52.55 |
| chrisl ^^^ | 15:53.02 |
chrisl | henrys: I guess so, I didn't setup the godaddy account, and I don't have full access to it. | 15:53.30 |
henrys | tor8:do you remember the errors/error.h "throw/rethrow" history? Wast there some object to just putting the contents gserror.h in gserrors.h? Most of gs already include gserrors.h - this would save adding an include every time we want to use the new (not so new) api. | 15:57.16 |
tor8 | I believe it was stefan who added the throw/rethrow error tracing functions | 16:28.24 |
| I don't know what reason he had for putting them in another file | 16:28.39 |
henrys | thanks | 16:34.53 |
tor8 | I think we should merge them, if you want my opinion. fewer header files with similar functionality can only be a good thing. | 16:39.43 |
henrys | chrisl:it looks like you were the last to poke around in gsiodev.c - see around line 107 it would seem we are freeing table[-1] reading the code. | 16:39.55 |
| tor8:yes I'll do that. | 16:40.10 |
chrisl | henrys: strange. I didn't change that, but I'll look at it tomorrow - it surely looks wrong! | 16:42.06 |
henrys | okay no big deal just happened across it. | 16:42.48 |
| chrisl:also your commented hack doesn't work, if you fail at the "first goto fail" presumably, there was a memory problem which would prevent you from putting the mem pointer in the table in the first place. | 16:51.08 |
| this is all fairly petty since it is not something we can recover from anyway. | 16:51.44 |
chrisl | henrys: if we fail at all in there, the point in question is NULL'ed and we'll never get to the finalize that needs that extra pointer. | 16:53.35 |
| s/point/pointer | 16:53.45 |
henrys | I don't see where the table is null'd | 16:58.07 |
chrisl | Line 109: libctx->io_device_table = 0; | 16:58.30 |
henrys | I am talking about a crash in the finalize procedure for the gs_free_object on line 108. | 17:00.07 |
chrisl | Oh, I didn't think the finalize would be called, there. The memory pointer assignment can be moved above the loop, then. | 17:01.42 |
henrys | chrisl:I'd like to think about how to get rid of the hack, the "FIXME". | 17:03.13 |
chrisl | henrys: I'd like to pass a memory pointer into the finalize method so sort that out. | 17:03.55 |
henrys | that does seem like what should happen. | 17:05.04 |
chrisl | henrys: I just didn't want to be making that many edits immediately before a release. | 17:05.50 |
henrys | well it does have a "FIXME" so if you've got more important stuff leave it. | 17:07.45 |
chrisl | henrys: no, it was always my plan to sort it out soon after 9.04 was done, the next couple of weeks or so. | 17:08.39 |
| henrys: one problem I had forgotten about wrt the release is changing the IRC message to say 9.04. | 17:30.42 |
henrys | it is at 9.02 now - leave it for ray. | 17:32.33 |
chrisl | We'll have to - I don't think we ever worked out how to make the rest of us permanently able to change it...... | 17:33.17 |
henrys | next move should be to simply remove it. | 17:34.17 |
chrisl | that would seem wise | 17:35.56 |
| Right, I'm done for the day - I will keep an eye on mail and the IRC logs for a few hours in case anything important comes up regarding the release | 17:37.43 |
henrys | robin_watts_mac:heathrow? | 17:44.17 |
robin_watts_mac | yeah. | 17:44.29 |
| the joys of Terminal 3. | 17:44.35 |
henrys | have a good time! | 17:44.51 |
robin_watts_mac | thanks, I'll try. | 17:45.20 |
azv4 | how do I navigate filesystem from gs prompt? | 18:42.22 |
alexcher | azv4: you can create, open, and delete files and enumerate directories. That's all. | 19:25.33 |
azv4 | Id like to open a file, but I do not know how to navigate to the file to open it, do I simply use the full path from C:/../..? | 19:27.17 |
alexcher | (c:/full/path/to/file.txt)(r) file | 19:29.27 |
| (relative/path/to/file.txt)(r) file | 19:30.02 |
| Forward 1 day (to 2011/08/09)>>> | |
