eventually, it will allow all subsystems to update by time rather than
by framerate.
beginning of main() for the exceptions that can be enabled (only
divide-by-zero is enabled by default, but you can uncomment any ones
you want); eventually, FlightGear should run cleanly with all FPEs
enabled.

These will log trace messages whenever a specific property value is
read or written through the property manager. They do not cause
FlightGear to poll bound values, so if a class variable that is bound
is changed directly, no trace message will be displayed.
These options are also useful in conjunction with a debugger.
--trace-read will cause the private SimGear SGPropertyNode::trace_read
method to be invoked, and --trace-write will cause the private SimGear
SGPropertyNode::trace_write method to be invoked; in a debugger
session, a user can set breakpoints on these methods then get a
backtrace to see what specific points in the code are reading or
writing properties.
works like this:
1. Parse preferences.xml, which will usually specify a default
aircraft using the /sim/aircraft property.
2. If /sim/aircraft is specified and not empty, parse the properties
in $FG_ROOT/Aircraft/{/sim/aircraft}-set.xml to set up a default
aircraft.
3. During command-line parsing, whenever the --aircraft option appears
set /sim/aircraft appropriately and parse the properties in
$FG_ROOT/Aircraft/{/sim/aircraft}-set.xml. Any --config, --prop, or
--aircraft options afterwards will take precedence.
more intuitive. We switch to an include in the preferences.xml to include
the default model, and then if the user specifies --aircraft=, that is
expanded immediately so portions can be overwritten by subsequent command
line options.
Here's an unusual patch for FlightGear -- I've created .cvsignore
files for every source directory, to make CVS output more informative.
This is especially nice when using cvs-examine from (X)Emacs to look
for changes.
a top level aircraft def file (c172-set.xml)
preferences.xml or --aircraft= or any other property setting mechanism can
be used to set the property "/sim/aircraft". After all options and config
files are parsed, the contents of /sim/aircraft is expanded into a *-set.xml
file and loaded.

- /sim/logging/classes takes a value like "terrain|astro", where the
names are the macros from simgear/debug/debug_types.h with the
initial "SG_" removed and converted to lower case; for none, use
"none"
- /sim/logging/priority takes a single name like "warn", where the
name is a macro from simgear/debug/debug_types.h with the initial
"SG_" removed and converted to lower case
fix startup sequence problems where we initialize the FDM before we know
the desired starting altitude.
These changes delay fdm initialization until the local tile has been loaded
and we can do a real intersection and find the true ground elevation.
In order to do this, I depend more on the property manager as glue, rather
than the FGInterface.
There are some glitches still when switching to a new airport or reseting
the sim. I will work on addressing these, but I need to commit the changes
so far to keep in sync with other developers.
meaning of "win_ratio". I've removed win_ratio and added fov_ratio and
aspect_ratio, as it seems both are needed.
n.b. The multi-line changes in fgReshape comprise:
extracting common code,
removing an apparently arbitrary "+1" on the view height,
changing "set_win_ratio" to "set_aspect_ratio".
through the controls interface and the running and cranking flags through
the engine interface. This has no current effect on LaRCsim (other than
to make the code neater) but is necessary to add engine startup to JSBSim
which is now underway. I've also put in main.cxx which escaped getting
committed in the previous round of changes - adding this will add
the cranking sound to LaRCsim during engine startup.
one I sent yesterday. I have re-zipped all four files so you can
neglect the last lot but only io360.cxx has changed if you've
already committed. It's untested since I can't start the engine until
John has committed his update with separate properties. Should
work fine though.
