Sorry for not many updates, I know it is not OSS of me. It is taking me longer to get back to speed on the dxf SOC than I expected after working to save funding for my actual research. I am trying to get an import .inx file working. The code now is only for import and is in the form of a dxf2svg file. A little help would be nice on the inx files. I have both window and linux boxes and right now it seems that I am having better luck with linux when I am playing with .inx files. Is windows more touchy when it comes to the inx files?
Please post your inx file and dxf2svg, or get them into CVS. I'll try to help in any way I am able. But I think I need a little more information. ;)
Yeah, post what you have first...then ppl. will remix it.
In the spirit of being a student I have focused on the class that is most important and that is physics. My CS class has taken a back seat to classes in my major. I will turn in the import part and will completly ignore the export part for the Sept 1 deadline. I think it would be nice to try to get dxf export working on a longer timeframe.
Do you have anything to show for export? I would think bad code is better than no code. And incomplete code is much more valueable to the project than no code at all. And will completing import be sufficient for your SoC goals?
Yeah, we do evaluations on SEPT 1 to see how you met your goals. From our report Google will decide if you should get paid.
So, that leaves few days for you to crank this out if you intend to.
I would recommend prioritizing this if you want to get paid!
I think it is most important for you to get code up ASAP! Usually we require ppl. to post a patch or some initial contribution b4 we give free reign on CVS. Please do this first and quickly!
My recommendation is to do this:
1.) provide an INX file 2.) provide your dxf2svg file
2nd thing is to provide a svg2dxf file to convert to dxf.
Then you'll be done...I think you can do this if you just focus, use the community for advice and feedback...etc...
