     50 ==== Week 01 ====
     511. What did you get done this week?
     52- Built GRASS73 from source from my local repo directoy.
     53- Stepped into a module (v.in.ascii) using the debugger to watch it work at the source code level.  This was only proving the concept of stepping into the code – just getting it to work.
     54- Talked with my mentor about the nature of the existing v.in.pdal module and what are some of the things which must be changed, fixed, or improved.
     55

     572. What do you plan on doing next week?
     58- Continue stepping through v.in.ascii to see how it works at the source level in order to understand how to write points to a vectormap.
     59- Get GRASS 73 to link to current version of PDAL.
     60- Fix broken references to PDAL data structures in the GRASS source
     61- Refactor existing v.in.pdal so that operations which r.in.pdal and r3.in.pdal will need are in a separate module and available as functions to be called from all three of them.
     62- Learn the process of calling PDAL and how to get it to do the basic operation of reading a lidar file and handing over the data to the caller.
     63- Set up a basic set of test data for PDAL, open it from pdal without GRASS, then open it using pdal through GRASS with only the most basic options in operation.
     64- Get PDAL to be able to read .laz (compressed) files.  For some reason it can’t do that after build-from-source.
     65
     663. Are you blocked on anything?
     67At the moment I can’t remember how to change the execution command so as to debug GRASS .c modules in QTCreator.  Vashek did it in a few days ago while I was there, but I did not write it down, and now I can’t find it.  I have a question in for him and Anna about this via email.

     69When I try to run v.in.ascii on GRASS73 on Linux, I just get errors:
     70ERROR: Option <input> does not accept multiple answers
     71ERROR: Option <output> does not accept multiple answers
     72ERROR: Option <separator> does not accept multiple answers
     73ERROR: Option <skip> does not accept multiple answers
     74ERROR: Option <z> does not accept multiple answers
     75
     76I am awaiting approval on the GRASS User mailing list to ask what I should do different.  Note the command is generated via dialog box on GRASS73, and when I run it on GRASS72 on the Windows side it runs just fine.
