Not right now – the file gets rebuilt each time the sim runs, so the comments get stripped.

Hi Michael,

I’ll ping you to sync your changes with the master repo; mroe got a static build working too.

Is it possible to add commented lines? In a large custom scenery collection these could be extremely useful when looking through the file. For instance could the parser ignore any text after a \\double backslash or a #pound sign ?

Many thanks.

Hello Ben,
I got it compiled on CentOS 6.6, which is hopefully “conservative” enough to be a good base. I’ll do some more tests to see if it works on newer distros too and post the result on the ORG…

Kind regards,

Michal

Would be really interested in the Mesh Tool , especially as making meshes for Africa would be great .

As you may know the ATC voice sound funny when the computer is abroud the US. Due X-Plane use the speech synth of Windows and not a propietary speech engine, when X-Plane is installed in a French computer, or Spanish computer, or German computer… it read the english texts from the ATC spelling like a french, a spaniard or a german
The results are things like this

Ouch!!!
In Prepar3D or FSX we won’t have these problems, because they use a propietary speech engine, so they will read english with perfect english, even if the computer is in a foreign country.
Please, fix this someday. Your international users will thank you this.

Hi Ben,

summary => how widespread is the issue with libcurl+libssl+forced certificate chain not being supported wrt popular linux distros.

details of coming to above summary =>
From your initial/original post as well as your response above as well as a very very casual/initial look at libcurl documentation, unless I am missing something, you are depending on libcurl and the back end ssl library used by libcurl to support the option of you specifiying a specific certificate (maybe self signed or …) to validate the server identity (instead of using a CA Certificed/signed certificate trust chain).

And this issue can remain as long as you are not in control of the curl and inturn the ssl library used by this curl library. But then in any scenario other than either Apr1) a full static build or a Apr2) which uses a libcurl (and maybe libssl, or may not matter actually but leaving it there as I don’t fully understand the ssl path of libcurl) provided by you, this problem will exist.

And if I understood your original situation clearly, you where already making the assumption that the system provided libcurl+libssl will support the option of you supplying the certificate to be used to validate the server identity. And the problem was mainly to do with a specific hack forced by ubuntu wrt libcurl, Which the dynamic dlopen mechanism should circumvent with out any problem and with out much effort right?

As for scenarios in linux distros where libcurl+libssl doesn’t allow self provided certificate to validate the server, cann’t you ask such users to compile libcurl manually with the required libssl library, provided most of the popular distros don’t have this problem.

And for my understanding do most of the popular distros like ubuntu/fedora/debian/redhat/suse/… support self provided certificates to be used for validating server????

NOTE: I have never worked on libcurl/libssl/etc (even thou I have used security algos directly for my own ends and needs), nor looked at how strongly these libraries try to stop bypasses if required. So all of my assumptions above may be largely invalid and or stupid, forgive me in that case.

I love using both apps.
I find the EFIS app easier to use than Xavion. BTW, Xavion doesn’t seem to work on the iPad 1 either.

Thanks a lot for keeping EFIS (networking) alive through all of X-Plane 10!
