Bug Issues

I am having issues with my second bug. I've looked up and down through the entire file, as well as its header file, and the source and header of a couple other related files. The loops are very long and the program doesn't have code that is well commented enough to know what certain things are. I suppose at least they state where the end of loops are in their comments, although I can still see this in a good IDE by clicking on the ending/beginning brackets. I also didn't see a proper looking return at the end of the method I was looking in. It just had a blank return with nothing after it. Pinpointing the error is not appearing possible with our depth of understanding of this project.

On the bright side I did learn a few new things about C++ Operators :).

Odd Day

Matt and Glenn were not able to make it today, so our meeting was essentially cancelled.

I talked to Perry about updating our Wiki. We updated the Timeline page by saying what our remaining time would be comprised of. We also updated who was doing which bug.

I had come up with a plan for the next two weeks. We are all going to be working on individual small bugs that should be completed by next Thursday at the latest. Then that gives us one week left to finish the big bug and have a rough draft of our presentation, which we will be preparing using Prezi.

3/31/11 - Bug Acceptance VICTORY

After class on Tuesday we met and worked some more on our project. We decided to move forward on one of our small bugs and our big bug.

Another thing I did was e-mail some DIFFERENT people at ITK as far as our bugs not having been accepted yet. I also changed the subject lines. I found out putting the bug number got the messages filtered out for some reason.

And on the git page for my bug it says.....
Change has been successfully pushed.

FOSS update

Last week after class we met and attempted to work on our BIG bug. I knew we needed to stay on track with  constantly working on it so I set up a meeting.

Unfortunately we ran into some roadblocks. We had trouble with the issue of the 3gb image. We are still researching that now.

POSSCON

I received an email about POSSCON the other day asking me to confirm whether I was still going to the event. I replied that I was going Thursday. I'm hoping that today in class we will be talking about POSSCON for a little bit and what the situation is with the rides.

As far as our timeline, we had already done it before the break so that has been done.

My first bug

I fixed one of the VTK bugs tonight. The bug was 0010861 in the VTKPolyDataConnectivityFilter.

I had the source code for VTK straight on my system, so I had to install it through GIT instead. To do this I did the following:
cd VTK
git clone git://vtk.org/VTK.git VTK
git clone git://vtk.org/VTKData.git



./Utilities/SetupForDevelopment.sh
git remote add gerrit asbissad@review.source.kitware.com:VTK


git commit
git add

git push gerrit HEAD:refs/for/master/PrivateToProtected
