LDCheck - part checking program (1.0)

[Steffen]

"HELP entry length": didn't we decide that help entry length was not limited?

I think yes there is no limit.
You could issue a warning if a line is "ridiculously" long, but other than that I would not limit the length.

[*]"Filename ending does not match declared LDRAW_ORG file type.": what does this mean? How do filename endings correlate with LDRAW_ORG file type? I guess subfiles have 's01' and so on but other than that I don't really get it.

No, this is about the file extension. It is very simple:
- models must have *.ldr
- everything in our library is parts, shortcuts, subparts and so on and therefore must have *.dat

[*]"Filename ending does not match declared LDRAW_ORG part type qualifier." likewise...?

I think this is simply a duplicate of the above.

[*]"Wrong BFC command found." What is a wrong BFC command?

for example:
0 BFC CERTIFY INVERTNEXT
. This got inserted by older MLCad versions automatically sadly.

[*]"T-Junction detected." T-junction detection can be very difficult to implement and only a small minority of T-junctions are actual problems. Do we really want to automate this?

I agree that implementing it could be difficult. We should not hold up the integration of your checker into the Parts Tracker
because of this. Something like this can be added later if really desired.
