[Flightgear-devel] Cygwin/Terragear/nurbs problem

2005-08-06 Thread Buchanan, Stuart
Hi Ralf,

My terragear source doesn't include that README (I've
got the 0.9.8 release as opposed to a CVS version).
What version were you using? Any chance you ould point
me at the README and replacement .h files?

I've also managed to trash my cygwin trying to go back
to gcc 3.3.3, having finally managed to work out how
to do it (I was using a mirror that didn't keep
previous images). So, one step forward, two steps back
right now :(

I also hit the "unqualified-id" in stl_bvector. I got
around it by remove the "std::" qualifier on a couple
of types IIRC. Seemed to compile OK, but as I've not
got anything running

The patch is here: 
http://cvs.terragear.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi/TerraGear/PATCH-nurbs%2B%2B-3.0.11-with-gcc-3.4.x?rev=1.1&cvsroot=TerraGear-0.0&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup


and the README is here:
http://cvs.terragear.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi/TerraGear/README.nurbs%2B%2B?rev=1.2&cvsroot=TerraGear-0.0&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup

alternatively you could install CVS on cygwin and checkout the current 
CVS version of TerraGear ;-)

BTW great pictures Curt.  Sharp looking crew as well :-)   And a very exciting flight story.  The scariest jet airline flight I've been on was one that landed on Corfu and it was 100% routine.  I have serious doubts that this jet could have stopped on the runway if an engine was out and beyond one end of the runway is water and buildings (houses, etc) on the other end.  No room for overruns.  When the aircraft finally braked to a stop, I actually thought we were a little off the end of the runway from the poor viewing angle I had in the cabin.  The takeoff later was equally interesting, although by then I had convinced myself that they did this every day and we would make it,  which we did. 
 



I had a flight out of Cuzco, Peru (we were up to see Macchu Pichu) that 
was interesting.  The Cuzco airport is up about 11,500' MSL and we were 
flying out of there in an old beater Boeing 727.  I had a stop watch so 
I started it when we began our take off roll.  We got airborn and 
everything was normal, but because of the geography of the area, 5 full 
minutes into flight we were still seeing terrain straight out our window 
and still very close.  That's not something I'm used to seeing around 
here in Minnesota.



Anyway after all the exciting stories, is there anything more you are able to 
say about the simulator project mentioned top of the page?
 



Let's see.  The NTPS has some simulator software that is their own 
proprietary product.  The strength of their software is that it is 
really well suited and tuned towards developing and evaluating the 
performance of a modern fly-by-wire aircraft (and is well proven in 
action.)  However, it has only very basic out the window graphics.  I'm 
doing a (hopefully quick little) project to build an interface from 
their software to FlightGear in order to use FlightGear as the visuals.


Regards,

Curt.

..me, I'm just wondering how their J22 would have done at altitude with 
turbos off interned B-17F|G's. http://anycities.com/user/j22/j22/  ;o)

  Scenarios always come in sets of three: 
  best case, worst case, and just in case.

Just about all of the Swedish jets from the Tunnen onwards have 
been pretty interesting and capable aircraft for their day.  
Almost surprisingly so for such a relatively small nation.
