8:00 – 4:00

• Spent some time with Dong walking through using Interfaces for what he’s trying to do. Not sure if it worked because-
• Meeting with Anne and Yonald Chery of SID, 10:30 – 1:00. Which I had totally forgotten about. Had to scramble a bit to get Appboard running on my box and get it over to the site.
• Anne called. The demo went well. Apparently there are some next steps.
• More work with Dong, chasing down the reason why wrapped display objects had no parent.

8:00 – 4:00

• More Freaking Fantastic FlexText!
• 1:00 meeting with Theresa Norris Ops1 3N075-1 – Postponed to next Tuesday
• Dong needed to be able to delete ObjectWrappers, so I added WrapperManager.removeWrapper(name:String)
• Making progress on TextFlow – can now flow text between two objects
• My car is leaking radiator fluid. Getting it towed.

8:00 – 3:30

• Ingested the Infotek data successfully, but the trend widget chokes on it. Asked mike to fix.
• Looking at the TextLayoutFramework as a way to build reports. Made some progress.
• It turns out that my badge has expired, which is why I can’t get through the turnstiles. Fixed

7:30 – 4:00

• Got an “Access Denied” going through the turnstiles today. I’m guessing that this is a side-effect of switching over to FGM. Need to work this out with Brian(?) and our security officer. Talked to Brian and Angie about this. Angie’s looking into it.
• Realized over the weekend that ObjectWrappers need a “clear code buffer” so they don’t store every call for relaunch. Done.
• Commenting serializing code and adding to the Utils class
• Mike’s back!
• Installed the “Dina” programming font, which I like a lot: http://www.donationcoder.com/Software/Jibz/Dina/
• Need to deploy a new version of VISIBILITY incorporating Mike’s changes to LaurelDemo and S2F. Disk is burned and Laureldemo is up
• Looking at the TextLayout library for Flex (http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/textlayout/). And heads up! Flex 4 is in Beta2 and due out early this year!

8:00 – 4:00

• Working on reading in generated XML – done!. The code parts are definately going to be needed for setting up percentWidth and so forth. THe serialized object records the static dimensions
• 11:00 Meeting with ITK

7:30 – 4:00

• Deployed new version of IngestManager that keeps “illegal” characters out of table names
• More Serializer work – got most of the writing out done, now I need to read in.
• Meeting at 12:15 – 1:45 get aquanted meeting with Scott Gessay (FGM CEO)

8:00 – 5:00

• Showed John W how to upload and ingest files. We need to prevent hyphens in table names- fixed
• S14 meeting at 10:00 – Need to get some data ingested and shown in Visibility. Not sure what that means and also how much of the trend widget we’ll need mere.
• Showed some more folks in S2F how to use visibility and ingest files
• Moved actual parsing of code from the WrapperManager to the ObjectWrapper
• Talked to Anne, she has a demo next week that might also have a dashboard component. Maybe the best thing to do is get the TUMMS codebase. I wonder if I have any screenshots.

7:30 -3:30

• Forgot to drop off the user docs today. Burned a disk and stuck it in my coat. That should help
• Working on reading in a Data Provider. Works – generalizing. Added and then deleted ArrayCollection, since Arrays are easier to work with. Added Object as a “simple” type.
• Added a WrapperManager to the XmlSerializer package. Still only at about 500 lines.
• Next, update the serialization so that the data includes the “code”.

8:00 – 4:30

• Darn, missed the chance to enter a date of 01.10.10 yesterday. Now we have to wait for October for more binary fun.
• Working on seeing how to connect to runtime defined data as a dataprovider to an instanced class. Oddly, this is the third time I’ve done something like this, first in C++, then in Java, and now in Actionscript. Need to go look for a documented pattern.
• Tried to do my timesheet, but no luck getting charge numbers
• S14 Meeting on Wednesday at 10:00
• Dev meeting meeting here on Thursday at 12:30
• Am now reading in XML and using it to set proerties and passing arguments to functions. Next, handle arrays for dataproviders and serialize the whole thing out.

8:00 – 4:00

• More serializer work.
• Put the serializer code in EdgeUtils
• Looks like I’m not going to be able to get much more out of the serializer without wrapping it so that I can pass in data providers and such. Started on the wrapper – more tomorrow.

8:00 -4:30

• Working on the serializer – done, though I’m not dealing with hooking up data providers, etc. THis might require filling in the Array structures, which I’m not doing yet.
• Reconstituter – done. Same issues as above.

9:00 – 5:00

• Dentist appt.
• Gave Ray Scott an account this morning.
• Dropping documentation effort, since it looks like NG has been charging S14 for the S2F work
• December status report.
• Started working on Dong’s “serializer”

8:00 – 4:00

• Hmmm. 2010. Still waiting for the lunar colony.
• More documentation. Going to try to get the first draft this week.
• Timesheet’s broken. Can log in, but can’t create charge numbers. Ah, it’s a feature…
• Note, make a “Default” Screenshot, with UserLogin and Cars selected. Done.
• About halfway through the QueryBuilder section

8:30 – 4:30

• Snow!
• Deployed new version at site
• Working on documentation – but from home, since there is still no water pressure here…
• Finished Desktop and Menubar.
