What is this about?

I need to say that I'm not familiar with C++ or the source code of the client. Nevertheless, I wanted to try to patch this bug I reported (VWR-10829) since I figured that it should only be a typo in the code and therefor easy to fix.

So I downloaded the source code for the Linux build RC-1.22.9 and searched for PLAY with this query

 find . -type f -name "*" -print0 | xargs -0 grep -in "play" > ~/_play

Then I started to have a look at my findings, scrolled through the long list until I stumbled upon

./indra/test/io.cpp:953:			new LLPipeStringInjector("suckers never play me"));

I was kinda confused about this output and it distracted me of my initial goal to patch the bug... It lead me to search for similar strings within the viewer. Especially for cuss words. What I found made me either laugh or shiver (^_^)

This page provides some of my findings. I commented to some with rather unqualified notes. Please don't take them serious :p I really enjoyed these little easter eggs! Hope you do so too ^^

Source Code Quotes

./indra/newview/llvovolume.cpp:213:				// Well, crap, there's something bogus in the data that we're unpacking.
./indra/llmath/llcamera.h:124:	frustum_plane mAgentPlanes[7];  //frustum planes in agent space a la gluUnproject (I'm a bastard, I know) - DaveP

Look at the date of this one:

./indra/lscript/lscript_library/lscript_library.cpp:44:// function in the middle will lead to many sim crashes. Phoenix 2006-04-10.
./indra/llcommon/llerror.cpp:1186:			// Loop forever, in case the crash didn't work?

wait... the crash didn't work? They wanted it to crash?

./indra/newview/llappviewer.cpp:1319:	removeMarkerFile(); // Any crashes from here on we'll just have to ignore
./indra/llrender/llpostprocess.cpp:121:	//this will cause system to crash at second time login

hm... ok

./indra/newview/llappviewer.cpp:1819:	// If we have specified crash on startup, set the global so we'll trigger the crash at the right time

Now it really didn't surprise me anymore that I crashed at times... ^_^ It seems to be a feature!

./indra/newview/llpreviewscript.cpp:1251:// Save needs to compile the text in the buffer. If the compile
./indra/newview/llpreviewscript.cpp:1252:// succeeds, then save both assets out to the database. If the compile

./indra/newview/llpreviewscript.cpp:1254:// get too fucked.
./indra/newview/llviewerobject.cpp:4367:		if(!queue) // stop any current sound first to avoid "farts of doom" (SL-1541) -MG

I'll not ask about "farts of doom" since I don't want to know!

./indra/llmath/v3color.h:188:# pragma warning( disable : 4996 ) // strncpy teh sux0r

1337 5P34K ftw!

./indra/llwindow/llwindowmacosx.cpp:1433:		// Mozilla sometimes changes our port origin.  Fuckers.

Err... better not tell Mitch ^^

The following two sound like they could be part of some action movie:

./indra/llmath/lloctree.h:398:		//none of the children have it, let's just brute force this bastard out
./indra/newview/llappviewer.cpp:763:		// can't use an alert here since we're existing and
./indra/newview/llappviewer.cpp:763:		// all hell breaks lose.
./indra/newview/llpaneldirplaces.cpp:66:	// This is wrong on many levels and scares the hell out of me.

erm... I dunno what's wrong there, but when even the programmer is scared...

./indra/llmessage/lltransfersourceasset.cpp:133:		// Crap, read failure, need to deal with it.
./indra/llrender/llfontgl.cpp:961:			// Handle crappy embedded hack
./indra/llcommon/llapp.h:200:	// WARNING!  This callback is run from the signal handler due to the extreme crappiness of
./indra/llcommon/llapp.h:201:	// Linux threading requiring waitpid() to be called from the thread that spawned the process.
./indra/llcommon/llapp.h:202:	// At some point I will make this more behaved, but I'm not going to fix this right now - djs

To bad this one has no date... I'd be curious ^^

./indra/newview/llviewerobject.cpp:2940:		// _damn_, what a nice monitor!

TY! =)

./indra/llaudio/vorbisdecode.cpp:272:	// FUCK!!! Vorbis encode/decode messes up loop point transitions (pop)
./indra/llui/llmenugl.h:307:// FUCKING EFFICIENT, because it may need to be checked a lot.

Woot!

./indra/newview/llpreviewscript.cpp:951:		// *FIX: This fucked up little hack is here because we don't
./indra/newview/llpreviewscript.cpp:952:		// have a grep library. This is very brittle code.

Eeeps... better call Mc Hammer to keep track of that one...

./indra/llcommon/llstring.cpp:844:	std::string s11( "monkey in the middle", 7, 2 );

o.O ?

./indra/llcharacter/lljointsolverrp3.h:44:// This class is a "poor man's" IK for simple 3 joint kinematic chains.
./indra/newview/llvoiceclient.cpp:1645:		// So retarded.  Windows requires that the second parameter to CreateProcessA be a writable (non-const) string...

err... I downloaded the LINUX viewer... Why worry about Windows?

That's not good, huh?
