[Soc-2014-dev] Weekly Report #2: NURBS Modernization

[Jonathan deWerd]

This week's progress:
- I can successfully load order 2, 3, and 4 NURBS curves! To be clear: no surfaces yet and I haven't added support for a bunch of .3dm features, from small ones (not-open curves with irregular knots) to big ones (trimming). But I'm not held up on these, I'm hung up on...
- Integrating opennurbs into cmake. I got my first result by manually tweaking the Xcode files that came out of cmake but this is no good in general. I've put opennurbs in the "extern" folder and I'm still working out how to persuade cmake to generate the appropriate build files.
- Got a stakeholder .3dm testfile. It's not production data but it tests for a specific cut that was needed in production. I have lots of .3dms now: I have 3dms that I made, 3dms from stakeholders, and lots of 3dms from the Rhino example libraries.

Things that were done this week that weren't progress:
- Reading trimming literature

What I want to have done by next Friday:
- Integrating opennurbs into cmake
- Surface import (ideally including trimming although I suspect it will slide another week)
- Midterm proposal (didn't really work on it this week)


Cheers,
Jon
