| sebras | kens: hi! | 06:48.38 |
| kens | morning sebras | 06:48.48 |
| | sigh, 9 emails marked as spam by GMail, 5 of them are not spam..... | 08:04.53 |
| chrisl | kens: Where do we stand wrt to the PJL stuff and the pending release? | 08:42.45 |
| kens | better not wait | 08:43.02 |
| chrisl | Okay | 08:43.12 |
| | kens: Secondly, doesn't your latest commit introduce another compiler warning? (ignored return value) | 08:44.19 |
| kens | Someimers yes, we have lots of those | 08:44.36 |
| | wwCan't have it both ways.... | 08:44.51 |
| chrisl | Well, if you prefix the function call with (void) you can | 08:45.17 |
| kens | The problem is I really am ignoring the return value, because it also sets the value in the font (more precisely) and I want that value | 08:45.20 |
| | Ah cna't prefdix the function with void, because other places *do* use the return value | 08:45.38 |
| chrisl | Yes, you do "(void) pdf_do_subset_font(pdev, pfd->base_font, -1)" and that tells the compiler you are intentionally ignoring the return value | 08:46.26 |
| kens | Well I suppose I only have to care about Linux | 08:47.08 |
| chrisl | There's even a macro, if you prefer: "DISCARD(pdf_do_subset_font(pdev, pfd->base_font, -1))" | 08:47.22 |
| kens | Its all a mess frankly | 08:47.22 |
| | I'll think about it later, I'm working on PJL right now | 08:47.49 |
| chrisl | It just seems pointless to remove a compiler warning by adding another...... | 08:48.22 |
| kens | pdfwrite has *lots* of the 'ignored return value' ones already, I'd rather have a warning I'malready ignoring than a new one | 08:49.14 |
| kens | will be off for a couple of hours, back later | 09:20.38 |
| Robin_Watts | can't follow kens logic there :( | 09:32.43 |
| | Electrician is ill, so testing is delayed. | 09:32.57 |
| kens | Wow, did everyone see Henry's mail ? | 13:42.10 |
| chrisl | Yeh, somewhat shocking...... | 13:43.13 |
| tor8 | ouch. | 13:48.34 |
| jogux | hm, I didn't. | 13:54.56 |
| kens | http://www.globalgraphics.com/news/2015/09/15/global-graphics-acquires-urw-design-&-development-gmbh/ | 13:56.02 |
| jogux | oh, crikey. | 13:56.20 |
| henrys | oh right I sent it to staff and jogux isn't on that list | 14:14.43 |
| | talking to Peter at URW now | 14:14.57 |
| | jogux: maybe we'll have another use for the sot fonts in the future ;-( | 14:19.17 |
| jogux | :-S | 14:19.24 |
| henrys | chrisl: he's still willing to give us GPL for a price, but that's going to be a tough sale to Miles | 14:22.28 |
| chrisl | henrys: I always thought it was a long shot, which is why I said not to push too hard. | 14:24.27 |
| henrys | we didn't discuss a mupdf release at the meeting, tor8, Robin_Watts ? | 15:32.40 |
| Robin_Watts | henrys: Tor and I mentioned it between ourselves briefly. | 15:32.59 |
| chrisl | Right, having thrown the release candidate over the wall, I now disappear before the sh*t can hit the fan....... | 15:33.23 |
| Robin_Watts | There is a problem building the current version with VS2005 that we'd like to solve. | 15:33.26 |
| kens | chrisl, you have installers done or not ? | 15:33.42 |
| Robin_Watts | chrisl: There is 1 gs bug I'd ideally like to solve before the release. A crash with the downscaler. | 15:33.47 |
| chrisl | kens: yes, installers are done | 15:34.03 |
| kens | right I'll grab them and test | 15:34.11 |
| chrisl | Robin_Watts: well, I haven't kept it a secret when the release was happening..... | 15:34.21 |
| Robin_Watts | but I think you should ignore that possibility and push ahead without me. | 15:34.28 |
| | If I get a fix done in time, and it's judged to be small enough we can parachute it in. | 15:34.45 |
| chrisl | Sure, okay. I'm really hoping for a release in a week.... | 15:35.08 |
| Robin_Watts | If I haven't solved it in a week, it'll be waiting longer. | 15:35.35 |
| chrisl | Do you want me to look into it? | 15:35.50 |
| Robin_Watts | chrisl: If you have time, sure. I'm prepared to bet it something stupidly simple. | 15:36.09 |
| henrys | and yogi berra dies, I'm just going to crawly back into bed today. | 15:36.14 |
| | s/crawly/crawl | 15:36.24 |
| kens | Woohoo, my new pdfmark code in PJL code works as far as producing a PDF/A-1b file and it validates with Acrobat :-) | 15:36.28 |
| chrisl | Robin_Watts: do you know the bug number? | 15:36.33 |
| Robin_Watts | bug 696151 | 15:37.28 |
| chrisl | Okay, I'll poke at it tomorrow or Friday | 15:38.50 |
| kens | ah I just got the email with the installer URL :-) | 15:39.12 |
| chrisl | Right - really do have to go...... | 15:39.33 |
| kens | Hmm, can't we sign our installer now to avoid the security warning ? | 15:41.21 |
| Robin_Watts | We can, and we should. | 15:41.41 |
| kens | THat's what I thought | 15:41.49 |
| | I'll mention nit to Chris after I get done testing the binaries | 15:42.03 |
| mvrhel_laptop | mq mentioned the urw thing to me yesterday and I did forgot to check on it. I was a bit shocked when he said it | 16:12.09 |
| kens | Might explain why GG share price went up a few days back | 16:12.28 |
| | I meant to check up on that and forgot | 16:12.40 |
| mvrhel_laptop | he had asked where we get our fonts and I told him and then he said oh you mean the company that GG bought. | 16:14.29 |
| henrys | reading between the lines from Peter's email it did sound like they were going to have a good deal of autonomy, he was happy about it... but who knows how it'll sort out | 16:14.38 |
| mvrhel_laptop | thats good | 16:14.51 |
| Robin_Watts | The press release says "URW will continue as an indepenent company". | 16:22.01 |
| | which made me think that long term it'll probably be exactly the opposite. | 16:22.25 |
| mvrhel_laptop | ok in-line text for forms is working now in gsview | 16:43.24 |
| | now need to add the drop down lists | 16:43.43 |
| | as well as saving the file... | 16:43.59 |
| henrys | how about some customer bugs ;-) | 16:44.01 |
| mvrhel_laptop | yes | 16:44.06 |
| | spoil all my fun | 16:44.13 |
| | ok. I promise I will work on that today/tomorrow | 16:44.32 |
| | off to dentist bbiaw | 17:14.19 |
| Robin_Watts | mvrhel_laptop: Good luck. | 17:18.08 |
| | Forward 1 day (to 2015/09/24)>>> | |
