Talks/Presentations
If you want to give a talk or presentation during the Hackfest, please add it to this list:
- I will present how to make use of the server for remotely testing real GPUs (and other real hardware) while having the same debugging benefits of a VM - Colin Finck (talk) 17:16, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
Ideas
Add everything you want to have discussed/worked on during the Hackfest to this list. Finish your comment with ~~~~ to add your signature.
- Let's work on definite concepts to have a SVN -> Git move by October. We can try things out at the Hackfest, show problems and workflows to other people, and get everyone on the Git train who isn't convinced yet - Colin Finck (talk) 12:13, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
- I would like to discuss the ugly structure of the sdk directory and how to clean it up, with respect to the different types (public/private/internal) of headers and libraries. Ekohl (talk) 19:07, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
- Try to look at some compiler bugs, e.g. delay-loading (CORE-6504), support for linking multiple .res files. Perhaps try a newer GCC version (they tend to regress wrt. PCH and compress-debug-sections. Building ROS with -fcompare-debug, CORE-8378 has shown compiler bugs in the past). Try to investigate why building ROS on ROS fails.
