Re: [boost] [gsoc2017]Satyam Pandey Copy GSoC 2017 Proposal writen by Ruoyun Jing

Hi Boost, Vissarion, Adam, Niall, David Sorry for disturbing you at this time, I experienced a very bad thing that Satyam Pandey, a student who sent proposal yesterday copied too many sections of my proposal. I marked the sections red in the given PDF.* I think the same pattern of GSoC proposal is common, and it does not matter, but his proposal has too many same description as me. * And I received two emails from google docs. I will transmit these two emails in the following emailsThe meaning of one email is Satyam Pandey do a replace:replace “Dev Environment Visual Studio for C# development Eclipse for JAVA development Code Blocks, Sublime T…” to“`+” The meaning of another email is Satyam Pandey reject the comment of "Proposal" from his own, replace “Dev Environment Visual Studio for C# development Eclipse for JAVA development Code Blocks, Sublime T…” to“`+” I sent an email to him, but he did not think he did the copy work. But the actually thing is* he forked the whole proposal and then change some words to fix his condition.* 2017-04-03 7:42 GMT+08:00 Satyam Pandey <satyampandey0009(a)gmail.com>: > Hello Ruyong, > I just wanted to explain my part here.

Hello Ruyong, I just wanted to explain my part here. I did not copy as per what I understand.I have tried answering your queries.I hope you will read it calmly and would try to understand. 1. As far as I could guess we share similar background of competitive programming and have no experience in contributing to any large orgs . So I used your proposal as reference for writing my proposal. 2. Our Programming interest are same cause they are, I will end it here. This cannot be called a copy-case because thats-what I feel are the things that I like. How can you question that? Every guy that loves maths and programming would have written it in the same way and I'm not faking my interest toward them as you can check by following the links that I have given about different contest that I have participated in. Or do you want to say no-one other than you can like both. 3. The Timeline was, one feature that I liked in your proposal, so I used it. How its copying ? Your exact timeline will not even make sense for me,cause we are applying for different Projects. 4. And I did not understood "And you did not code for programming competency test, but have the same idea of implement of test" . What does this mean ? . Firstly I haven't read your proposal after you start describing "*far enough*" . So ,I did not know what you were doing in your test. Even if I knew what you have done or written there, do you think, you have claimed that way of solving the problem by putting it in your proposal ? And even after reading your proficiency test idea, the only thing that matches with my idea is the Basic-Distance function which is the first result that we get after googling the problem ? So , have we both copied from google ?? And please before going public with this, you could have at-least talked to me personally. I don't think Boost-Developer mailing list is meant for such discussions. Mailing list are made for communication that concerns the whole org not any individual. You could have directly mailed to me, before creating this nuisance. Genuinely you should be happy that people are following your style and if not, at least think a little before calling someone cheat because borrowing ideas are not equivalent to cheating , in anyway.

BOOST license & GPL
by Oliver Kowalke 02 Apr '17

02 Apr '17

Hi, I encountered a open source project that is released under GPL and uses Boost - that's OK, because GPL and Boost license should be compatible. But the developers of those project copied code from Boost into their own library. The question is, is this new library now GPL or Boost license? Additionally, because they copied the code from several Boost files into one, they mixed up copyright statements. As a result, some people get copyright on code they never wrote. Seams to me that's not correct. Oliver

Dear Vissarion and Adam, My name is Guillermo- a Computer science student at UCLA. I am excited at the possibility of contributing to such a useful library! My application is not yet complete, but I will post my draft on here to demonstrate my intent to participate in the program. For the competency test, I began to implement a representation of points on earth and used the great-circle formula to calculate the shortest distance between two points. I will have a more in-depth explanation of the code by the final iteration of the draft along with the complete proposal and application.

[Stacktrace] Review 2 Manager report
by Niall Douglas 31 Mar '17

31 Mar '17

Many thanks to all those who participated in the second review of proposed Boost.Stacktrace. I received the following formal reviews: 1. Peter Dimov (ACCEPT) 2. Vladimir Batov (ACCEPT) 3. Artyom Bellis (CONDITIONAL ACCEPT) 4. Bjorn Reese (ACCEPT) 5. Edward Diener (ACCEPT) Extensive comments without a formal recommendation were also made by: 1. Mark Bartosik 2. Florian Weimer Some of the more important conditions for acceptance as judged by the review manager are: * Problems on FreeBSD (and by inference OS X?). * Per frame execution of addr2line rather than calling it once. * Throw-with-trace was asked for by a lot of people. * One reviewer suggested that the addr2line backend was async signal unsafe. My reading of the code is that it is async signal unsafe to parse a stacktrace (and unavoidably so on any platform), but the capture of backtraces is now fully async signal safe. * Some disliked the bringing in of windows.h and the COM headers on Windows. For a header only library I consider this acceptable, Stacktrace when configured in non-header only mode does not inject windows.h into everything including stacktrace. Congratulations to Antony on getting yet another library of his into Boost! Niall -- ned Productions Limited Consulting http://www.nedproductions.biz/ http://ie.linkedin.com/in/nialldouglas/

[Beast] Redesigned HTTP algorithms and parser!
by Vinnie Falco 31 Mar '17

31 Mar '17

Background: Websocket connections start with an HTTP UPGRADE request/response sequence. Often people want to customize this handshake so I added code in Beast to read and write HTTP messages. Upon reviewing the HTTP RFC (rfc2616 and rfc7230) it seemed to be logical that the HTTP message could be modeled as a single class. And there could be free functions implementing the algorithms to serialize and deserialize these messages in th HTTP/1 format. I took this as far as I could and I was pretty happy with the result. You have functions like read, async_read, write, and async_write which take beast::http::message objects as parameters. Example: http://vinniefalco.github.io/beast/beast/ref/http__read/overload3.html The innovation here is the "Body" template type which controls not only the type of container used to represent the body but also the algorithms used to transfer bytes from the message body on the wire into and out of that container. The Body concept, and its nested Reader and Writer concepts, are documented here: http://vinniefalco.github.io/beast/beast/ref/Body.html http://vinniefalco.github.io/beast/beast/ref/Reader.html http://vinniefalco.github.io/beast/beast/ref/Writer.html Previous efforts and HTTP implementations focused heavily on the representation and parsing of the headers. To my knowledge Beast is the first implementation to provide caller flexibility in the body representation. Now the Beast websocket implementation has a reasonable set of primitives it could use to perform the handshake, and users could get control of that process. The Problem: Unfortunately, while treating the message as an object that can be read/written atomically works great for example programs and trivial use-cases, it fails in the real world. These are issues with it: * The caller must commit to a Body representation before receiving the HTTP Header * No way to properly read and respond to Expect: 100-continue * An efficient HTTP relay function (one that does not buffer the entire body up front) cannot be implemented by the caller * The caller cannot reasonably set a timeout, for example what if the body is 2 gigabytes received over a slow connection? * The parser interface forces algorithms to perform an unnecessary buffer copy for body containers that are entirely stored in memory (e.g std::string or boost::asio::streambuf). These issues sparked quite a bit of discussion on GitHub: https://github.com/vinniefalco/Beast/issues/154 https://github.com/vinniefalco/Beast/issues/265 In October of 2016 these problems became apparent. I tried a lot of different ideas to improve the design to solve it, but none of them worked. Some of my co-workers looked at it but we didn't really find anything great. One user in particular, on GitHub, had strong ideas involving the concept of "completion conditions" to augment the read/parse algorithms but it didn't feel right to me. The Solution: After suffering from writer's block for 5 months inspiration hit and I tried a combination of interface changes that got the design to where it needs to be to solve these problems. * The Reader concept is refined into two types: "indirect" readers, and "direct" readers. This is described here: http://vinniefalco.github.io/stage/beast/beast/ref/Reader.html * The parser exposes a small number of internal states, informing callers of where it is at and giving the caller control over if and when the parser advances to the next state: https://github.com/vinniefalco/Beast/blob/http/include/beast/http/basic_par… * The parser is rewritten to work only on linear buffers (allowing it to be optimized to become 20 times faster if SSE2 instructions are allowed). To facilitate this requirement, the flat_streambuf class is provided which works just like a basic_streambuf except it guarantees a single buffer. If the parser is given multiple buffers, it allocates memory to flatten it: https://github.com/vinniefalco/Beast/blob/http/include/beast/core/flat_stre… * New functions parse_some and async_parse_some allow the caller to perform incremental parsing. This allows for the implementation of relay functions, or reading just the header (for Expect: 100-continue): https://github.com/vinniefalco/Beast/blob/http/include/beast/http/parse.hpp… With these changes callers can get control of the inner loop that reads the body off the socket or stream, so they can do whatever custom steps are necessary if they want. They can set timeouts, and write their own loop that calls parse_some repeatedly. I think it solves all of these issues. I've written some test code which demonstrates how direct and indirect body readers are implemented, and what calling code looks like. I've also written a prototype "relay" function (read a message from one socket and efficiently write it to another socket). And there's an example of how Expect: 100-continue might be implemented. These prototypes are located here: https://github.com/vinniefalco/Beast/blob/http/test/http/design.cpp#L30 How to Help? These are some controversial changes and I think they could use some polish and vetting before I merge it to the master branch. Maybe there is something I haven't thought of, or a use-case it doesn't address. Perhaps there is a better way, or perhaps there are tweaks to make it even more usable and understandable. If some kind soul(s) would look through it and offer some feedback, positive or negative, that would be enormously helpful. The formal review for Beast is now scheduled for the first week of July and like an expectant father I am anxious and would like everything to go just right! My only objective is to polish up the library and its documentation so it is in the best possible shape for review. Thanks for listening!

Boost.SIMD review
by serge guelton 30 Mar '17

30 Mar '17

Hi Boost Dev, I'm the core maintainer of Pythran[0], a python-to-native-code compiler focused on numeric computations. For more than 3 years, we've been using Boost.SIMD [1] as a generic backend for SIMD code generation, without much worries. Basically our compiler generates C++ code that includes Boost.simd calls. The big plus to us are: + Performances. The generated code runs at the same speed as the one written with intrinsics; + Target abstraction, esp. concerning the vector size and the various arithmetic operations; + Complete libm API, vectorized, which is a big plus when porting existing code (or when matching an existing API as we do); + Header only, which actually makes it easier for us to ship; + Low requirements (it does not require us to ship a large part of boost).? The compilation time is sometimes a worry, but it has decreased over the year. We don't use complex data movement like shuffle or pack, so I don't have any feedback on that. All in one, if that ever matters, I would be happy to have it integrated in Boost! ++ Serge [0] https://pythonhosted.org/pythran/ [1] https://github.com/NumScale/boost.simd

I just released version 1.0.0 of my header-only C++11 library NuDB. Its quite a mature library, haven't had to make any changes in a while. Its been running on production servers for 2 years or so with no problems, managing ever-growing databases of 2TB. I'm wondering what the level of interest, if any, there would be for making this a part of Boost. You can check it out here: https://github.com/vinniefalco/NuDB

[build][geometry][regression] Geometry develop regression tests are blank
by Adam Wulkiewicz 29 Mar '17

29 Mar '17

Hi, Boost.Geometry develop tests (http://www.boost.org/development/tests/develop/developer/geometry.html) stopped showing around 22.03. The first blank run (teeks99-03-dc3.9-1z-Docker-64on64) is from Wed, 22 Mar 2017 01:20:13. Do you have an idea what may be the cause? I see that many changes in Build and Regression was done around 22.03. Geometry was also modified that day but the first commit is from 12:40+1 so later than the first blank run. I checked the XML of one of them (teeks99-09-n-win2012R2-64on64) and it seems that the revision attribute of <test-log> tag is not set for the most of the tests. I'm currently running the regression.py myself in hope of finding the cause. I see that in bjam.log the only tests that are dumped are: boost-test(RUN_PYD) "geometry/__boost_check_library__" : "status/boost_check_library.py" boost-test(RUN_PYD) "geometry/extensions/__boost_check_library__" : "status/boost_check_library.py" boost-test(RUN) "geometry/index/varray_old" : "libs/geometry/index/test/varray_old.cpp" boost-test(RUN) "geometry/index/varray" : "libs/geometry/index/test/varray.cpp" boost-test(RUN_PYD) "geometry/index/__boost_check_library__" : "status/boost_check_library.py" varray tests are the only ones that are run at the most top level of Geometry Jamfiles (of sublib geometry/index in this case) with test-suite: https://github.com/boostorg/geometry/blob/develop/index/test/Jamfile.v2#L24 The rest of the tests is run with build-project, also for the main part of the library: https://github.com/boostorg/geometry/blob/develop/test/Jamfile.v2#L26 The varray tests results are shown on the regression page and can be found in bjam.log and in XML file with revision set. The rest of the tests is neither dumped nor has the revision set, however they are run during regression testing so can be found in bjam.log and also in XML file but with empty revision. Adam

Hello, I run into a compile problem with [Boost.Test] DataSet. I can reduce it by re-using the example provided by the docs: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_62_0/libs/test/doc/html/boost_test/tests_or… #define BOOST_TEST_MODULE dataset_example68 #include <boost/test/included/unit_test.hpp> #include <boost/test/data/test_case.hpp> #include <boost/test/data/monomorphic.hpp> #include <sstream> namespace bdata = boost::unit_test::data; // Dataset generating a Fibonacci sequence class fibonacci_dataset { public: // Samples type is int using sample=int; enum { arity = 1 }; struct iterator { iterator() : a(1), b(1) {} int operator*() const { return b; } void operator++() { a = a + b; std::swap(a, b); } private: int a; int b; // b is the output }; fibonacci_dataset() {} // size is infinite bdata::size_t size() const { return bdata::BOOST_TEST_DS_INFINITE_SIZE; } // iterator iterator begin() const { return iterator(); } }; namespace boost { namespace unit_test { namespace data { namespace monomorphic { // registering fibonacci_dataset as a proper dataset template <> struct is_dataset<fibonacci_dataset> : boost::mpl::true_ {}; }}}} // Creating a test-driven dataset BOOST_DATA_TEST_CASE( test1, fibonacci_dataset() ^ fibonacci_dataset(), fib_sample, exp) { BOOST_TEST(fib_sample == exp); } error: no match for 'operator^' (operand types are 'boost::unit_test::data::result_of::make<fibonacci_dataset>::type {aka fibonacci_dataset}' and 'fibonacci_dataset') fibonacci_dataset() ^ fibonacci_dataset(), My use case has to load input and expect files provides by two datasets.

[review queue] What to do about the library review queue?
by Niall Douglas 28 Mar '17

28 Mar '17

Dear Boost, I see that new candidate Boost libraries entering the review queue have exploded in recent years, with no less than *twenty-three* proposed libraries awaiting a review. As the ongoing strength and vitality of Boost is inextricably linked to new growth, I think that waiting around for years for someone to volunteer to manage a review is not healthy. If a library author has invested the very significant effort to develop a Boost-quality library, the least Boost can do is to try harder to provide timely reviews and that means persuading more people to volunteer to manage reviews. In the past people have argued that for every library you submit for review, you should manage a review in return. Myself, Antony and a few others have adhered to that rule, and if every library author did so there would be no outstanding review queue. However there are problems in that in itself in terms of moral hazard, and also because the review manager needs to usually be fairly expert in a library being reviewed, else it can be very hard to judge the worth and validity of reviews. A shortage of suitably expert review managers will always be a problem for some types of library. I therefore ask boost-dev what to do? Some options: 1. Pay US$1000 (one thousand) dollars to each person who manages a review. In case you're worried Boost doesn't have the money, it does in spades, that's not a problem. For $23,000 we could clear the current review queue assuming none of the problems mentioned yet. 2. Pay US$1000 dollars to the manager and 2x $500 dollar payments to those writing the top two most useful reviews as judged by the review manager. That makes the cost $2000 per library accepted or rejected, or $46,000 to clear the current review queue. 3. In my own opinion from reviewing the review queue, a good 25% of the libraries in the queue are not ready for review due to obvious glaring deficiencies in the documentation or code. Spending a grand on those libraries which will very obviously be rejected isn't worth the money. What should we do about those? One approach could simply be to trust review managers to not abuse the thousand dollar fee. Another could be that before each new review, the prospective manager needs to write a single line comment on why they did not choose the other libraries in the queue and publish that here before starting a review. That would quickly identify those libraries in the queue which a majority of managers think have serious problems and could never pass any review. If say a library in a queue accumulates three single line black marks, the author might be encouraged to withdraw it. 4. Finally there is the problem of libraries of high quality, but not a good fit for Boost because they are so esoteric and niche that nobody could provide a useful review, and without useful reviews the review manager can't really recommend acceptance. This will be an increasing problem with time anyway as more of the low hanging C++ library fruit is picked, but I suppose one could just kick that decision can down the road and see if 2x $500 payments might help scare up more high quality reviews. 5. We could try guilting more people into review managing, and redouble banging the drum to scare up more volunteers. I look forward to seeing what people think.

[1.64] Can't configure msvc-14.1

Clang 4.0.0 MPL error in Boost next.hpp and prior.hpp
by Paul A. Bristow 28 Mar '17

28 Mar '17

I am trying to check code that works on VS2015 update 3 and GCC 6.3.0 using Clang 4.0.0 I am using the CodeBlocks IDE (though I don't think that is relevant). The code indirectly uses next.hpp and prior.hpp There are several warnings like this (after adding the -Wignored-attributes option) C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\include\immintrin.h|45|warning: __declspec attribute 'intrin_type' is not supported [-Wignored-attributes] I:\modular-boost\boost\mpl\next_prior.hpp|44|error: too many arguments provided to function-like macro invocation| Following suggestions in this thread, I have added -Wno-invalid-token-paste http://clang-developers.42468.n3.nabble.com/invalid-token-paste-td4025526.h… and also -DBOOST_PP_CONFIG_FLAGS=1, but I get a blizzard of errors - see below It would seem that this may be because of a misconfiguration in Boost mpl? If I understand right, the thread above suggests that this is MS pre-processor-specific MPL code because of code in boost/preprocessor/config/config.hpp that determines the MPL code? Is this correct? Target: x86_64-pc-windows-msvc -triple x86_64-pc-windows-msvc19.0.24123 Complete log attached in case this helps. Can anyone say what I am doing wrong and/or suggest a workaround for this?

Constructing string_ref from rvalue string
by Simon Sasburg 28 Mar '17

28 Mar '17

I've just tested our codebase with the 1.64.0 master snapshot, and i've encountered an issue which i've tracked down to this commit: https://github.com/boostorg/utility/commit/9960d9f395b79ee860e39064cd4696 1f76d2cb55 Basically this removes the constructor which allows constructing a boost::string_ref from an rvalue std::string. I am wondering if this is really that dangerous. In our codebase we almost exlusively use boost::string_ref as function parameters, with the understanding that passed string_refs parameters are only valid within the function body. (so you need to copy it into an std::string if you need to access it afterwards) With these constraints i think it is OK to construct a string_ref from an rvalue std::string because the temporary should live long enough. (but please correct me if i'm wrong here) Is the safety (?) added by this commit worth it if it breaks working code? Simon

Hello, I took the trivial example from http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_63_0/libs/log/example/doc/tutorial_trivial.… and try to compile it. boost 1.63 is compiled by myself without any special options, besides --prefix. % echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH /home/lindnefn/software/boost/lib: % echo $LIBRARY_PATH /home/lindnefn/software/boost/lib: % echo $CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH /home/lindnefn/software/boost/include: the LIBRARY_PATH contains all the *.so and *.a files, the INCLUDE_PATH/boost all the headers. but compiling fails: lindnefn@helium ~ % g++ -std=c++11 -DBOOST_ALL_DYN_LINK -pthread -lboost_log_setup -lboost_log -lboost_thread -lboost_filesystem boostlog_trivial.cpp /tmp/ccUc6CtH.o: In function `main': boostlog_trivial.cpp:(.text+0x48): undefined reference to `boost::log::v2_mt_posix::trivial::logger::get()' boostlog_trivial.cpp:(.text+0x76): undefined reference to `boost::log::v2_mt_posix::trivial::logger::get()' boostlog_trivial.cpp:(.text+0xe8): undefined reference to `boost::log::v2_mt_posix::trivial::logger::get()' boostlog_trivial.cpp:(.text+0x116): undefined reference to `boost::log::v2_mt_posix::trivial::logger::get()' boostlog_trivial.cpp:(.text+0x188): undefined reference to `boost::log::v2_mt_posix::trivial::logger::get()' /tmp/ccUc6CtH.o:boostlog_trivial.cpp:(.text+0x1b6): more undefined references to `boost::log::v2_mt_posix::trivial::logger::get()' follow /tmp/ccUc6CtH.o: In function `boost::log::v2_mt_posix::record::reset()': boostlog_trivial.cpp:(.text._ZN5boost3log11v2_mt_posix6record5resetEv[_ZN5boost3log11v2_mt_posix6record5resetEv]+0x23): undefined reference to `boost::log::v2_mt_posix::record_view::public_data::destroy(boost::log::v2_mt_posix::record_view::public_data const*)' /tmp/ccUc6CtH.o: In function `boost::log::v2_mt_posix::record boost::log::v2_mt_posix::sources::basic_composite_logger<char, boost::log::v2_mt_posix::sources::severity_logger_mt<boost::log::v2_mt_posix::trivial::severity_level>, boost::log::v2_mt_posix::sources::multi_thread_model<boost::log::v2_mt_posix::aux::light_rw_mutex>, boost::log::v2_mt_posix::sources::features<boost::log::v2_mt_posix::sources::severity<boost::log::v2_mt_posix::trivial::severity_level> > >::open_record<boost::parameter::aux::tagged_argument<boost::log::v2_mt_posix::keywords::tag::severity, boost::log::v2_mt_posix::trivial::severity_level const> >(boost::parameter::aux::tagged_argument<boost::log::v2_mt_posix::keywords::tag::severity, boost::log::v2_mt_posix::trivial::severity_level const> const&)': boostlog_trivial.cpp:(.text._ZN5boost3log11v2_mt_posix7sources22basic_composite_loggerIcNS2_18severity_logger_mtINS1_7trivial14severity_levelEEENS2_18multi_thread_modelINS1_3aux14light_rw_mutexEEENS2_8featuresIJNS2_8severityIS6_EEEEEE11open_recordINS_9parameter3aux15tagged_argumentINS1_8keywords3tag8severityEKS6_EEEENS1_6recordERKT_[_ZN5boost3log11v2_mt_posix7sources22basic_composite_loggerIcNS2_18severity_logger_mtINS1_7trivial14severity_levelEEENS2_18multi_thread_modelINS1_3aux14light_rw_mutexEEENS2_8featuresIJNS2_8severityIS6_EEEEEE11open_recordINS_9parameter3aux15tagged_argumentINS1_8keywords3tag8severityEKS6_EEEENS1_6recordERKT_]+0x3c): undefined reference to `boost::log::v2_mt_posix::core::get_logging_enabled() const' /tmp/ccUc6CtH.o: In function `boost::log::v2_mt_posix::aux::record_pump<boost::log::v2_mt_posix::sources::severity_logger_mt<boost::log::v2_mt_posix::trivial::severity_level> >::~record_pump()': boostlog_trivial.cpp:(.text._ZN5boost3log11v2_mt_posix3aux11record_pumpINS1_7sources18severity_logger_mtINS1_7trivial14severity_levelEEEED2Ev[_ZN5boost3log11v2_mt_posix3aux11record_pumpINS1_7sources18severity_logger_mtINS1_7trivial14severity_levelEEEED5Ev]+0x4b): undefined reference to `boost::log::v2_mt_posix::aux::unhandled_exception_count()' [...] I also tried to omit -DBOOST_ALL_DYN_LINK, add -static instead or use clang++ instead of g++.

Hi Adam and Vissarion, During these days I discussed the ideas of project 1 and begin to write my proposal. Here are what I learn about these project. 1.For the approach of compute the 3D cartesian distances first and if these numbers are not "far enough" then fall back to expensive geographic distance calculation otherwise return the result by comparing those numbers obtained by less expensive cartesian compuation. The main problems is declare the "far enough". To figure out this problem, I would implement the method, test the result between function compare_distance and this method, then adjust parameter to limit deviation in an acceptable range(maybe it would be 1e-6 correapongs, the accurate value should be discussed by specific condition) 2.For the approach of perform a local spheroid approximation and return the 2D distance. The main problem is to test the acceptable range of using spheroid approximation. The solution is same as answer above. 3.For the approach of getting 2 intersections of plane (which would be ellipse) with the help given points and compute the respective distances using those ellipses. In my understand of these approach, it means we need to get cross-section through the center of ellipsoid and the geodesic segments. But I am not sure that the geodesic segments of two points whether can get a cross-section through the center of ellipsoid, and whether the cross-section is ellipse that we can calculate the sectorial area easy to compare. After check out the geodesic knowledge from differential geometry for a long time. I got some prove, but I think it isn't very reliable. 4.I have an reliable approach is that we could use the algorithms in "map projection" just like Lambert Conformal Conic, Gauss–Krüger projection, Mercator projection...etc, Those projections make the point on 3D to 2D with reliable functions, although most of these projections use longitude and latitude, we could transform our cartisian coordinate into Spherical coordinate then transform them into longitude and latitude then use the projection to approximately calculate. All of above is what I discussed during these days, Could you please provide me some advise about them so I can strenthen my proposal?And if there has any problems about my poor English description please tell me, I will try my best to explain more clearly:) Thanks all for your reading! Looking forward from you.:) Ruoyun -- Northwest University of China Software Engineering jingry0321(a)gmail.com <jingry0321(a)163.com>
