[Flightgear-devel] Weather reporting stations
An friend of mine is asking questions about weather reporting stations (http://www.linux.org.uk/~telsa/Diary/diary.html, Dec 15th entry) and has been pointed at FlightGear for answers by someone other than me.

[Flightgear-devel] [RFC] gui/AirportList
The good news: I fixed it The bad news: I had to change plib :-/ And this doesn't even come as a surprise. I had to make puValue::getStringValue() in pu.h:538 virtual! The class inheritage is as follows: puValue() -- char *getStringValue(); | v puObject() | v puButton() | v... puListBox()---| | V ... puList()| -- virtual chjar *getStringValue(); | v AirportList()-- virtual chjar *getStringValue(); getString is only made virtual in puList() and AirportList(), but it's not virtual in puObject. copy_from_pui(), however, uses the getStringValue() method on a puObject, assuming that it will get AirportList()'s. Of course, this doesn't work and puValue()'s is used instead. One would have to make getStringValue virtual in puObject() or puValue() to make this work. Why did it work before (assuming that it did :-), and doesn't now? Probably the fact that gcc is now more standards compliant? So, what shall we[1] do? A change to plib is probably out of the question. Working around the problem with an subclass of puObject that does 'virtualization' right? Or removing the airport list altogether, as it's probably only useful for people who have the whole world scenery installed? Anyway, this should be fixed in 0.9.8. m. [1] If I write we, I do actually mean we, not anyone *but* me (which seems to be the most common interpretation these days in flightgear-devel ;-). ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
[Flightgear-devel] Bug in CVS: radio panel hot spots no longer work
Reported in the IRC channel; Melchior and I have since confirmed. Mouse-clickable hot spots on the panel were working fine for me until I updated plib/openal/simgear/flightgear from CVS and recompiled all this morning. Now *some*, but not all, of the hotspots are unresponsive. Specifically, radio stack switches (frequency swap, frequency tuning, etc.) don't work, while altimeter calibration, NAV radial adjust, etc., do work. I've observed this on the c172 and the c310. Reported on the 737 as well. -c -- Chris Metzler [EMAIL PROTECTED] (remove snip-me. to email) As a child I understood how to give; I have forgotten this grace since I have become civilized. - Chief Luther Standing Bear pgp9pP614Io8x.pgp Description: PGP signature ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d

My fault. That was caused by my patch to SimGear/simgear/props_io.cxx.

[Flightgear-devel] apt.dat.gz replaces basic.dat.gz and runways.dat.gz
I just commited a change to cvs that replaces the old basic.dat.gz and runways.dat.gz files (which were in an old depricated/unsupported format) with apt.dat.gz which is in the X-Plane format. This is the format we now officially support. Having one single format between X-Plane and FlightGear greatly simplifies the work Robin Peel has to do to maintain the database. This change required some loader changes which had some minor cascading name changes sprinkled throughout the code. Everything seems to work as before, but I haven't tested the ATC/AI/Traffic manager stuff so someone who uses that stuff should do a quick check to make sure I didn't break anything there.
