Can't compile

[Julio Jerez]

I'm not totally sure, but I think the dVisualDebuggerServer isn't even needed any more (Julio?) - I will check asap and update the CMake files accordingly..

yes this is correct, we should probably remove it for the build and remove altogether.

[d.l.i.w]

Ok. I will remove it from the CMake files and create a pull request tomorrow.

It probably would be a good idea indeed, to also remove the actual code and enet - less code means better overview.

[Julio Jerez]

agree. I will do when you submit the request.

Latest revision does not compile - again:

Code: Select all

In file included from coreLibrary_300/source/core/dgSPDMatrix.cpp:25:0:
coreLibrary_300/source/core/dgSPDMatrix.h: In member function ‘bool dgLCP<T, Size>::SolveDantzig()’:
coreLibrary_300/source/core/dgSPDMatrix.h:672:38: error: there are no arguments to ‘CholeskyFactorizationAddRow’ that depend on a template parameter, so a declaration of ‘CholeskyFactorizationAddRow’ must be available [-fpermissive]
    CholeskyFactorizationAddRow (index);
                                      ^


I will create a pull request as soon as I can test my changes.

I wrote release build - I meant a binary release.

My understanding is that as Newton is Open Source and that you can get free versions of Visual Studio/etc that Julio doesn't bother with binaries as people can compile there own.

It was only really when Newton was Closed Source that you saw alot of Binaries from Julio.

Yes - and it's ok as is.

But you initially wrote:

It may be a good idea to have some stable Work In Progress builds

So I wondered why you want to have stable WIP builds if there even are no release builds (which is totally ok for me).
Probably you wanted to suggest stable WIP releases or git tags.

Sorry for nitpicking, but there is a difference

I didn't mean to use the word builds (People do at times make mistakes). I just meant stable source code people could compile which is of the current wip version.

While you seem to be able to view the entire repository from a point in the past, you have no real way to know when it was last stable.

Git "tags" can do, what you suggest, with little effort:
One could for example create tags for beta versions like "newton-3.14-beta1".

On Github the list of all tags can be found at
https://github.com/MADEAPPS/newton-dynamics/tags
and one can easily download the whole source code for each tag.
The git command line tool can also checkout the source code for a specific tagged revision.

Btw. "releases" on Github also are git tags, that are additionally marked as release.
