Bump to dev revision after tagging 7.46.0. We already have enough changes pending for another minor - if 7.46 needs a patch release it will come from the rel-7-46 branch.

Update ChangeLog, set release date

+This release expands geometry conversion and improves modeling
+reliability.  STEP support adds AP203e2, AP214, and AP242
+import/export, native CSG round trips, and AP242 product and
+manufacturing information (PMI) import.  IGES and JT conversion is
+expanded, and new OpenSCAD CSG import/export tools are available.
+
+Facetization is more reliable, NMG solid ray tracing is 10-20 times
+faster, CSG ray tracing is faster, and BoT, DSP, and point-cloud ray
+intersections are corrected.  MGED gains numerous fixes to primitive,
+sketch, and combination editing, drawing, dialogs, and preferences.
+
+New tools support object nesting with arrange, building generation
+with mkbuilding, annotation editing, and primitive repair.  Geometry
+analysis, image utilities, Windows support, documentation, and bundled
+dependencies also receive substantial updates.

 The LIBRT_DEBUG environment variable may be set to the hexadecimal bit vector as described by the DEBUG_* flags listed in the raytrace.h header. Similarly, many LIBRT applications provide a "-x #" command-line option which will take precedence over the environment variable.

-The RT_DEBUG_RTCMP flag (0x10000000) (set with LIBRT_DEBUG=10000000) appends
-one high-precision rtcmp JSON record per ray with final hit partitions to the
-file named by LIBRT_RTCMP_FILE. Misses produce no record. librt never clears
-the file; the caller must clear or rotate it before a new comparison as needed.
-Separate processes must not write to the same file concurrently. Pending
-records are flushed within two seconds under normal operation and during normal
-process shutdown. A process terminated abnormally may lose pending records.
-rtcmp comparison files should use the same hit-only capture mode on both sides;
-its generation mode also includes misses.  The output can be expanded to also
-include primitive segments if the environment variable LIBRT_RTCMP_PRIMITIVES
-is set to 1.
+The RT_DEBUG_RTCMP flag (0x10000000) (set with LIBRT_DEBUG=10000000)
+sets up rtcmp capture, but recording starts disabled. Set
+LIBRT_RTCMP_FILE before enabling the flag, then call
+rt_rtcmp_capture_set_enabled(1) from the application or a debugger to
+record selected rays. Call rt_rtcmp_capture_set_enabled(0) to stop
+recording. Enabling returns -1 if the debug flag is unset or the output
+writer failed to initialize; disabling returns 0 even before setup. A
+ray must begin while recording is enabled, and leaving recording
+disabled when it finishes suppresses its record. The debug flag must be
+set before concurrent ray shooting; use the setter to change recording
+state while rays are running.
+
+Captured hits append one high-precision rtcmp JSON record per ray with
+final partitions. Misses produce no record. librt never clears the
+output file; the caller must clear or rotate it before a new comparison
+as needed. Separate processes must not write to the same file
+concurrently. Pending records are flushed within two seconds under
+normal operation and during normal process shutdown; call
+rt_rtcmp_capture_flush() to wait for pending records when using a
+debugger. Disabling recording does not discard records already queued. A
+process terminated abnormally may lose pending records. rtcmp comparison
+files should use the same hit-only capture mode on both sides; its
+generation mode also includes misses. The output can be expanded to also
+include primitive segments if LIBRT_RTCMP_PRIMITIVES is set to 1 before
+capture is set up.
+
+For example, run a single-threaded ray tracing application in a debugger
+and stop at `rt_shootray` for the suspect ray. Capture just that call,
+then compare it with a capture of the same ray from a reference build:
+
+[source,shell]
+----
+$ LIBRT_DEBUG=10000000 LIBRT_RTCMP_FILE=trial.json \
+    gdb --args ./ray_application model.g
+(gdb) break rt_shootray
+(gdb) run
+(gdb) call rt_rtcmp_capture_set_enabled(1)
+(gdb) finish
+(gdb) call rt_rtcmp_capture_set_enabled(0)
+(gdb) call rt_rtcmp_capture_flush()
+(gdb) quit
+$ rtcmp -c reference.json trial.json
+----
+
+Continue to the suspect ray before enabling capture if the breakpoint
+first stops on another ray. Produce `reference.json` with the same ray
+and the same capture mode; set LIBRT_RTCMP_PRIMITIVES=1 for both runs
+when primitive segments are needed to locate a difference before Boolean
+evaluation.

 The LIBRT_V4FLIP environment variable may be set to a true or false value to respectively force or disable endianness interpretation of v4 geometry database files. The default behavior is to automatically detect whether flipping the endian interpretation will help LIBRT read a binary-incompatible v4 geometry database file. Setting LIBRT_V4FLIP will override automatic detection.

-# To use this package,  create a text widget (say, .text)
-# and set a variable full of html, (say $html), and issue:
-#	HMinit_win .text
-#	HMparse_html $html "HMrender .text"
-# You also need to supply the routine:
-#   proc HMlink_callback {win href} { ...}
-#      win:  The name of the text widget
-#      href  The name of the link
-# which will be called anytime the user "clicks" on a link.
-# The supplied version just prints the link to stdout.
-# In addition, if you wish to use embedded images, you will need to write
-#   proc HMset_image {handle src}
-#      handle  an arbitrary handle (not really)
-#      src     The name of the image
-# Which calls
-#	HMgot_image $handle $image

Clifford Yapp	84be85a74d	Make github.com bext sha1 query non-interactive This is an optional check, so we never want it to go interactive if anything is weird with upstream. `credential.helper=` prevents credential-manager/browser prompts, `credential.interactive=false` disables Git credential interaction, and the `GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT=0` environment variable blocks terminal prompting and helps with older Git versions	2026-10-07 11:05:52 -04:00
Clifford Yapp	3fd9ec8f4b	Isolate GCV regression outputs Give each GCV regression target a distinct output path so parallel tests cannot remove one another's results. Validate and clean every input immediately, and update companion-file cleanup paths.	2026-10-06 18:21:05 +00:00
Clifford Yapp	7d2392d754	Fix conditional datetime conversion constant Derive nanoseconds per microsecond from the existing unit constants. This avoids an unused file-scope constant in clock_gettime builds.	2026-10-06 18:20:41 +00:00

Clifford Yapp	e91023f354	Disable rtcmp tests for a BRLCAD_ENABLE_RUNTIME_DEBUG=OFF build rtcmp logging in librt is in the hot loop for rt_shootray, so even the enabled/disabled conditional check imposes about 1.5% performance overhead in an optimized build configuration. Since that isn't acceptable when we're disabling debugging support for maximum performance, disable the tests in that particular case.	2026-10-05 13:50:34 -04:00
Clifford Yapp	303b90f7f1	librt: handle empty and instanced trees during bounds traversal rt_gettree can succeed for an empty combination with no primitives, leaving its imported tree null. The old traversal reached RT_CK_TREE. With runtime checks enabled, that bombs and facetize's setjmp catches it. Builds with runtime checks disabled compile out the magic check and dereference null instead. This explains the different outcomes across build configurations. Return an error for null or NOP trees at every recursion level, so nested empty combinations also fail without a bomb. Carry each member's accumulated transform when selecting a prepared solid; matching only the name chose the wrong instance when one primitive appeared at multiple locations. Release imported combinations after recursion, use a stack tree for direct primitives, and return lookup errors instead of exiting the process. Cover empty and nested combinations, direct primitives, repeated transformed instances, and transforms through nested combinations.	2026-10-05 16:45:33 +00:00

Clifford Yapp	5e873e5081	Fix MGED live view panning and solid edit lookup View-mode mouse panning now honors view coordinates even when MGED is set to object coordinates. Correct the solid-edit lookup so live geometry queries work during dragging. Exercise numeric live and saved geometry for primitive, combination, ARB, pipe, BoT, BREP, ARBN, and raster edits. Cover menu selection, mode switching, repeated mouse edits, and BoT triangle picking under Xmin.	2026-09-25 14:17:01 -04:00
Clifford Yapp	3beed70eb8	Fix MGED mouse edit modes and interactive feedback Middle-click rotation and some Edit menu choices could move the view or leave solid editing in a stale mode. Keep edit flags and modes aligned so mouse actions change geometry, including snapped drags. Defer button release while a pick is running to avoid a background command-busy error. Extend MGED and Xmin regressions to verify primitive mouse edits, live redraw, menu modes, and picking.	2026-09-25 17:00:00 +00:00
Clifford Yapp	73258d4264	Fix MGED interactive edit redraw and mouse routing Object-edit transforms now update cached display matrices and mark views dirty, so geometry moves visibly without a manual refresh. Synchronize transient solid-edit flags with librt edit mode so mouse and rate controls manipulate the solid instead of the view. Add an Xmin mouse regression covering object and solid pan/spin, direct transforms, redraws, and unchanged view state.	2026-09-25 17:00:00 +00:00

Clifford Yapp	917ce5554c	Preserve primitive edits across failed saves and restores A failed checkpoint could discard the last saved state, and a failed revert could discard the current primitive. Restoring selected pipe or NMG geometry could also leave stale handles. Stage exports and imports before replacing live state, clear selections and refresh the keypoint after restore, and preserve SPH and REC types. Consume rejected edit input so a later command cannot reuse it, and prevent view-update counts from accumulating. Cover failed saves and restores, repeated revert, selected geometry, and default and non-default database units.	2026-09-24 14:52:59 -04:00
Clifford Yapp	58ab0d5496	Prevent rejected primitive edits from changing geometry Rejected height moves in TGC, CLINE, and EXTRUDE could replace valid geometry; NMG edge moves could partly change faces while reporting success. BOT edge splits could leave unused vertices, and malformed parameter text could partly overwrite seven primitives. Stage edits before applying them. Reject invalid REC and uniform scale inputs without changing geometry, and report scale failures. Cover these paths in default and non-default units, including CRLF parameter text and NMG selection remapping.	2026-09-24 14:52:59 -04:00
Clifford Yapp	13b0699349	Prevent rejected ARB edits from corrupting geometry Mouse face drags and several ARB edit helpers could change points or planes before detecting invalid geometry. Subsequent edits then began from inconsistent state and could produce unexpected shape changes. Validate candidate geometry before committing it, restore state on rejected edits, and cover repeated mouse drags with non-default units.	2026-09-24 14:52:59 -04:00
