8:00 – 4:30 VISIBILITY

Got a note from Jim M this morning, saying that Trish hhad to cancel the meeting and would reschedule. Also, he wants to know how much more we can do for how long with our current funding
Got some of the SSL issues fixed on site. Still can’t get subversion to behave. The tech support folks are working on it. We’re supposed to resync tomorrow.
Putting together a an xml generator to produce a network file in SOLR format – done

Continue working on Contracts management
- created ContractFormWindow for adding contract data
- contracts now can be saved and removed
- created _budget_centers_contracts table for Budget Centers and Contracts relationship management
- pretty much done, need to fine tune the displaying data

7:30 – 1:30 VISIBILITY

SSL for Firefox is misbehaving. Waiting for that to be fixed. All the deployed apps are working fine though
Catching up with Dong. Looks like I’ll demo the version installed last week
Working on the “Sailor” display
Burning a new Vis disk
Power failed at Columbia, went to the client. Spent a few hours doing the newest Visibility deploy. Since my certs were misbehaving, the svn transfer trick didn’t work any more. Joe set me up with a remote disk which works very nicely.

1:30 – 3:30 FP

Reinforced the azimuth component of the main support so the strain gauges should work better
Added the base
Discovered that the arms that come off the large motors are not strong enough to grip the shaft. Part of this is that there is no standard drill bit that corresponds to 8mm, so the holes for the shaft were too large. Wound up having to order a metric drill set from McMaster. You would think that Harbor Freight would have that, but nope.

Continue working on Contracts
- got reponses back from Trish
- changed Funding to Year and Budget Center specific – moved it to FinancialDataSet
fixed maximize problem on ProjectViewer
null trap added to FinancialDataDataGrid

tried to duplicate the exception when editing Financial Data
- couldn’t get it to happen on my laptop
- happens on Phil’s consistently, same version of Flash plugin
- may need to trap NULL exception
Working on Contracts
- modified contract table to map correct names
- added Manage button to ContractsCanvas to dispatch event to ProjectViewerPanel to start ContractMgmtWindow
- create ContractMgmtWindow

7:30 – 12:00 VISIBILITY

Deployed the new PPM, but the server was having SSL problems. Joe got that fixed, but in a semi-related side issue, the meeting was postponed
Rolled Mike’s changes into the new deployment package.
Tried restarting my computer to see if that’s what causes my out of memory exception. No joy. Going to try deleting the projects and reloading them. Wow! That worked. WTF?
- Setting the project up as a server app again – let’s see what that does…
- Changed the .flexProperties to make this a server project: <flexProperties flexServerType=”64″ serverContextRoot=”” serverRoot=”C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Tomcat 6.0/webapps/VisDashViewer” serverRootURL=”https://127.0.0.1/VisDashViewer” toolCompile=”true” useServerFlexSDK=”false” version=”1″/> – still working…
- Changed the output folder: C:Program FilesApache Software FoundationTomcat 6.0webappsVisibility3 – still working
- Enabled HTML wrapper – still works.
- Chalk it up to a FlexBuilder unreproducible result.
Virtually attending Aaron’s presentation
