Hi Chintan,
Thanks for the introduction.

We have a dedicated server and the interface requires access to BRL-CAD
functionality. How would we support a user opening a .step file with Code
igniter? With the current approach, we can directly call BRL-CAD’s step-g
importer along with dozens of other tools.

I note that this is a whole lot of “how", but not “what”…
What I mean is that I don’t see what you’re proposing that will look any
different to a user. it looks like you’re proposing to essentially rewrite OGV
for a different framework. While I don’t doubt that is a lot of work and there
obviously would be tradeoffs, some good and some bad, I’m not sure I see the
value in doing that on something that is not even deployed yet.
If everything goes to plan, by the end of GSoC we’ll be … exactly where we are
now. No?
I think a proposal should primarily focus should on features and usability
myself. What user-visible enhancements are going to be implemented? What
deficiencies will be corrected or improved? What about real CAD geometry —
parametric NURBS? If back-end changes are going to be made, it should be
because it’s blocking something from being implemented in a timely fashion.
Keep the thoughts coming. Feedback from our devs that have worked on OGV in
the past will undoubtedly be more useful and insightful than my own.
Cheers!
Sean
