8:00 – 4:00

• Working on getting Jetty running.
  • First, don’t add the jetty-distribution as a dependency in the pom file. It’s a zip file, and maven doesn’t know what to do with that during compilation
  • Got the simple server example running. Whee!
  • It looks like the minimum set of jars are the jetty server jar and the jetty servlet jar. Once these were in, I created a server (one line), then created a context (two lines), added a handler for the context, and then added three servlets that have three different urls. This is all working.
  • Tomorrow, figure out how to delete a servlet, then roll into the Facade class

7:30 – 4:30

• Meeting with TDTA(?) and Mike C at 1:30
• Strain Gauges are mounted and appear solid. I need to wire up and test before Friday. Well, I tried wiring one of the gauges, and the thing just popped off. Going to try the teeeeeeeeeeeeeeeny hair gauges.
• Need to tell Tom to add defaults and printing to StringEnum and derived classes
• Updated MvnAssist to attribute credit, and add some Cliff notes.
• REST from jython inside the interpreter works!
• Damn. Jax-ws only lets you have one binding per port. This means that every item that is published in the current system has to run on a separate port, which is stupid. Going to look at embedding a jetty server in the app instead. (http://wiki.eclipse.org/Jetty/Tutorial/Embedding_Jetty)

8:00 – 4:00

• Built a framework to hold two stepper motors. Going to attach some strain gauges this morning. Not sure if they’ll be ready by this afternoon. We’ll see.
• Need to add a higher level controller to coordinate the two motors
• Need to submit for reimbursement

7:30 – 4:00

• Woke up at 4:00 this morning. Urk.
• Made some arms for the stepper motors. Need to put strain gauges on them today
• Need to clean up the mess I made hunting down the r != n problem yesterday
• Let’s see what happens when I try to run a more substantial hunk of code… Success!
• Turning on the restful services. Done. Tested with jUnit, but haven’t tried to call it with jython. Kind of afraid to this late in the day. I think I’ll try tomorrow

7:30 – 4:30

• Yep, John went to the hospital on Monday.
• After finding the bill for the space on the door yesterday, Dong and I are getting nervous about the possibility of getting evicted – I.e. servers on the street. We’re thinking of moving our repositories off of the local servers and into the cloud. Maybe a dreamhost account (root account, ftp, svn, trac, wordpress and joomla)? Checked and found that vis-n.com is available
• Adding sampling to the scripting interface. Hmm. Not sure if I needed it after all. Turns out that the problem was that TextArea uses ctrl-m (CR) instead of ‘n’ to separate lines. Jython didn’t like that. Going to clean up tomorrow.

8:00 – 5:00

• Dong found a ‘past-due’ notice taped to the door this morning
• Got some data to try entering
• Working on script running today – everything works, but the method returns before stdout is filled in. Going to have to poll for it…

7:30 – 4:30

• Nothing new at the client today.
• Putting together the Scripting webapp.
• Login (the Flex side) is done.
• Working on the scripting layout.
