Re: [Flightgear-devel] fun with nasal ai
* Melchior FRANZ -- Friday 29 June 2007: Here's a new, adapted ai.nas version: http://members.aon.at/mfranz/ai.nas [1.7 kB] If you try this out with CVS/HEAD and it doesn't work, then just download it again from here, as I'll upload new versions if necessary. I just did that, as a commit to $FG_ROOT/Nasal/io.nas broke it. I won't mention updates here anymore, but I'm confident that it's final now. It was only a short demo anyway. :-) The commit to io.nas implements an io.writexml() that can be used to write parking.xml (and other non-standard XML) files back to the disk. m. - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] fun with nasal ai
* Melchior FRANZ -- Friday 29 June 2007: http://members.aon.at/mfranz/ai.nas [1.7 kB] It's a bit faster, too, although 8.7 seconds for EHAM/parking.xml is still a lot (was 12.8 before). And that comes from bad Nasal code, not from the c(++) expat/EasyXML parser code, which is very fast. Fixed in $FG_ROOT/Nasal/io.nas. Reading EHAM/parking.xml, parsing and converting to property tree: Before -- 9.015211 s Now-- 0.619772 s Placing the models still takes several seconds, and I'm afraid I can't do much here. We'll see ... What the bad Nasal code was, you ask? Using size(n.getChildren(foo)) to determine the index of the next foo node to generate. That's the standard way of doing it, but in a case like mine where I don't add to an unknown node dir, but generate *all* of the nodes myself, anyway, I can just count them. A lot faster. :-) What we learn: don't use props.Node.getChildren() if avoidable. m. - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

* Melchior FRANZ -- Thursday 28 June 2007: And what is it good for? For *nothing*. Well, for showing off some recent Nasal additions: [...] the xml parser. ... which I just removed. We have an interface to the built-in parser now. Here's a new, adapted ai.nas version: http://members.aon.at/mfranz/ai.nas [1.7 kB] It's a bit faster, too, although 8.7 seconds for EHAM/parking.xml is still a lot (was 12.8 before). BTW: the idea was to import the parking files into the ufo model editor, so that one could add taxi (and other) node points, edit existing ones, and finally dump new files. Maybe later ... m. - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML. No limits. Just data.

If you put it into $FG_ROOT/Nasal, start fgfs with the ufo and press the g-key, then you get a file-select dialog where you can select a parking.xml file. When you click the Load button, then an object is placed at every TaxiNode of the chosen airport. And what is it good for? For *nothing*. GREAT addition for debugging the ground network following code. THX. :-) (Haven't tried it yet but sounds promising.) Thomas -- PhD Student, Dept.
