[Flightgear-devel] MacOSX FlightGear patch and question
Hi Mac developers,
I decided to get rid of the message
2010-12-06 21:32:32.569 FlightGear[26052:903] ***
__NSAutoreleaseNoPool(): Object 0x10020a330 of class NSThread
autoreleased with no pool in place - just leaking
coming from the Mac flightgear start up GUI. The Net wisdom seems to be
that there is a NSAutoreleasePool missing somewhere. Looking into main.m
(https://macflightgear.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/macflightgear/trunk/FlightGearOSX/main.m)
there is a line containing 'detachNewThreadSelector' that causes the
problem. I have modified the code to get rid of the message (see
attached patch).
However I am confused about the code in main.m. Why is the
LauncherThread implemented? In my test set up main.m can be 5 (five)
straightforward lines:
--- working main.m ---
#import
int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
{
return RBApplicationMain("rb_main.rb", argc, argv);
}
--
Is there any need to include LauncherThread? The main.m code is four
years old, maybe there was plans to do something that never was
finished? Or maybe it is remains from old code? My Objective-C knowledge
is very limited so can someone confirm my findings and, if appropriate,
update main.m to something like the above or at least to apply the
attached patch to remove the annoying message about leaking.
Cheers,
Jari

[Flightgear-devel] OpenRadar Adoption
Hi All, After reviving an interest in Java, after finding a book in the hospital library during a recent unscheduled stay, I have decided that OpenRadar is a project I'd like to see updated and advanced, and I'd really like to give it a go. I've spent a few days picking it apart and settling it in with my IDE I'm trying to do as much research on it as possible, hard to find anything though in the mailing list archives and forums etc. I was wondering if there was anyone on here who could shed some light on how it was left and what the goals of the project were etc? some obviously may be defunct now etc and If I can get as much an understanding as possible at the start it will hopefully avoid wasting time as it goes on. My first step was going to be getting a repository set up for it on gitorious, unless there are any objections to such? Anyone who can help with history, advice or even lending a hand will be more than welcome.
