Hi Liam and everyone. On 01/03/06, Liam Girdwood <li...@gn...> wrote: >> [--thoughts about documentation--] > This would be very helpful, as the subject matter is very difficult for > beginners to understand (it's even difficult if you have a copy of > Meeus). No argument about that. I can see why Meeus' book is held in such high regard as far as providing useful formulas, but I found it quite frustrating just trying to learn about what was going on. As well as not spending much time explaining what things were as much as specific equations to calculate them, he seemed to have a habit of arbitrarily changing units of measurement half way through examples, and so on.=20 Since starting with that, I've built up a small library of other books on the same topic, but haven't had much of an opportunity to get into them yet. > How do you propose doing this ? Would you use doxygen or do you have > another documentation system in mind ? I haven't figured it out at this point, but I've had an idea in the back of my mind for a while that I'd like to write a getting-started guide based around a big flow-chart that indicates all the steps to go through for certain calculations, probably with a some detail (not an essay) about each step, referencing the functions in the code that are applicable, as well as documenting things like how expensive a step is for calculation versus how significant it is for accuracy. I've been teaching myself about this on and off for the past six months, and I'm still learning (so I'd expect someone might need to proof-read some of the specifics for accuracy if I did write it), but I'm hoping that such a perspective might help to decide notes that could be useful. I hadn't thought as far as to what documentation system to use, but I don't see why it couldn't fit into a doxygen format. Perhaps the best thing for me to do would be to just try and write something at all.=20 You could see what you think, and integrate it into the project if it seems appropriate to do so. It's likely to take at least a few weeks for me to get into this and I'm reluctant to commit to too much straight away, plus I'd need to familiarise myself with how libnova does things. It's good to hear that there's a general interest, though. Mike. |

I agree, it would also be nice if it could be tied into descriptions of the concepts behind the functions. e.g. The documentation for nutation could have a link to the wikipedia description of nutation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nutation Liam |

Hello. Is this an appropriate place to discuss libnova? There doesn't seem to be an obvious mailing list or forum attached to it that I can find, and the project seems quite strongly connected to this one. If there's a better place, please accept my apologies (and let me know). I was wondering if there's presently a documentation effort for libnova, besides the Doxygen comments. I'm quite keen to attempt to familiarise myself with the code and write some kind of getting started guide to explain, in some kind of logical sequence, what people need to do to use the library effectively. I've been working on my own ephemeris library for a few months, primarily as an effort to learn more about ephemeris in general. I forked my own code from the Astrolabe project that was released ages ago by Bill McClain, but I've also been reading up in several books (including Meeus) to help understand what's going on. I launced my own code as a GPL'd project a little while ago, but it's very incomplete and somewhat buggy, and my main motivation was that I wasn't aware of anyone else doing the same thing under GPL. Having discovered libnova a few weeks ago, I've been wondering if it'd make more sense to try to get involved somehow in what you're doing here instead. I haven't thought this whole documentation thing through in detail, but it's something I'd like to try in my spare time (which I'll hopefully find) if it would fit the project. Any thoughts? Thanks. Mike. |

I also think it's a good idea. I'll be releasing version 0.12 of libnova at the weekend. We can add it after this. Petr, what do you think ?

I think it would be a great idea, but i don't know if the owner of the project is still persueing development. I would definately appreciate the work. -Kinglag --- lhandf <lh...@gm...> wrote: > Would the addition of surface gravity functions to > libnova be appropriate? > It's a pretty easy calculation, and as far as I > know, it does not look like > it is already in it.

Would the addition of surface gravity functions to libnova be appropriate? It's a pretty easy calculation, and as far as I know, it does not look like it is already in it. Maybe I could also include the surface gravity of majo= r bodies. Please tell me if this could be a good idea. Thanks -- Louis Handfield |

However, there is one major annoying problem:- Nova now depends on Gtk2.7.0 (for Cairo) and Gtk 2.7 will break Firefox(and Anjuta). There is a workaround for Firefox, but it's probably best to wait for Gtk2.7.1.(or better still Gtk2.8 (stable) is released in August) I'm also about to start integrating libncat (http://libnovacat.sf.net) into cvs. This means no more downloading of catalogs. There will be a new release when Gtk 2.8 is out. Liam |

Hello, strange problem while compiling nova 0.4 on ubuntu 5.04 Hoary AMD64: I started with ./configure and then that -->checking for libnovaconfig... /usr/local/bin/libnovaconfig checking for libnova - version >= 0.8.0... no configure: error: libnova is required to compile Nova. Please check config.log. Well, libnova 0.10.1 was compiled without any errors. Hmmh, any idea??? mike ___________________________________________________________ Gesendet von Yahoo!

It looks like the call to get the current JD is failing because it is being implicitly declared (most likely as a 'int func(int)') in your code. Can you try this again and also #include <libnova/julian_day.h> Liam |

I was using ln_get_earth_sun_dist( current_day ); with libnova/earth.h included and it did not report a distance close to the distance i had found using the pythagorean theorom, however when i changed my include to libnova/libnova.h it worked fine. Is this by design or a bug? -Dan __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Address AutoComplete - You start. We finish. http://promotions.yahoo.com/new_mail |

Juan Carlos, Fausto, I've just commited a bunch of changes to libnova that prefix all exported symbols with a "ln_". This will avoid any namespace clashes. I've also split the libnova headers up and they will now install in $(prefix)/libnova. This will probably affect spiderd. I would like to release libnova-0.10 sometime in the week beginning March 22nd. I've already ported Nova to the new API. Liam |

Hi Gord >stupid question time again :) I need to do some testing on the >autostar driver and don't seem to be able to get spiderd to accept any >commands. I start up spiderd and telnet to the port and get the following: >.... >How do I enter commands? > [] Please use spiderclient, it is a test client, and modify it (to delete my probes)!!. If you do not want to make any modification, only push the return key when asked for a file and then send commands. Spiderd it is not prepared to support telnet, each message has a header to support the diferent message types (plain text request, binary data, etc..), and the message system is asynchronous, that means you must have a thread waiting for the answer or to have a loop pooling, or any other technique. Spiderclient has examples of all message types. The other problem, the double call to handler_startup() in the autostar driver, is because you have defined the driver two times, one for the xy motion and another one for the focus. There is no problem with this. You can call the same driver to support more than one device, but I recomend you to atomize the drivers, transferring the common code to a library. If you wish to maintain all together, there is no problem, you only must know clearly the commands you want to process. In your case, if you codify together both the xy and focus devices you must deal with both command sets within your code, of course!. A final note: each execution of the driver runs in its own address space because they are independent threads, so there are not common vars. If you are using the same port for both devices we will have a problem because this is not supported, tell me if this is the case to try to find out a solution. Cheers Juan Carlos |

Of course, another interesting question I meant to ask was: why does it load the autostar driver (and obviously execute handler_startup) twice?
