8:30 – VISIBILITY

  • Installed Dong’s new software onto the dual-facing server and added redirects to the instances on Jeff’s server.
  • Notes from meeting with Tangie
    • PA
      • Identifier dropdown needs some kind of labeling, like id:foo, name: bar, etc. The currne tscheme with all the commas doesn’t work
      • The entry screen is getting too busy. We need to clarify the layout
        • Move help to a popup?
        • Choose the visible navigation?
      • Add Kristi’s help and splash screen link to tutorial
      • The grid of attributes sometimes stretches outside the containing panel, we should make the panel wider
      • Incomplete projects should not be listed
      • Too many plurals
      • Confusion between “current” state and “current” month. Let’s change “current” month to “reporting” month
      • Is the cumulative or monthly amount in? I didn’t see it.
    • PPM
      • Add Name to browser tab. Currently it’s “#”
      • Add a button that allows data to be filled on the Edit Project page, not just the financial reporting page

  • Finished fixing up the arduino side to nto depend as much on the data dictionary
  • Finished the command class which handles commands
  • In the process of fixing the PC side.  The data seems to be passing ok but still not displaying.  Its not getting lost on the arduino side anymore though

  • Going through Phil’s GWT book step-by-step
  • Found a workaround for the broken dialog in the GWT Eclipse plugin (when trying to create a new HTML page and nothing happens):
    • create a new file at ‘myproject/src/com/google/gwt/user/tools/AppHtml.htmlsrc’
    • put the following 1 line in it: ‘<!doctype html>’
    • The dialog should not finish correctly

8:30 – 4:30 VISIBILITY

  • Starting off the day from home. Which means I’m installing GWT. Might as well try it on the new (3.7) Eclipse while I’m at it.
  • Working through the GWT RPC Tutorial, which is not one of their better ones. I think its not been kept up to date. It’s good enough though.
  • Here’s the result. The server is now computing the stock price and sending the result to the client
