7:30 – 3:30

  • Swung by the fort on the way in – everything is working fine
  • Working on color picker – the pick part is pretty much done, but needs some fine tuning. Need to be able to read in xml to configure, and update the UserInfoObject next.
  • Fixed a bug in mvnAssist. The method that calculates the <classifier> tag bails if it sees SNAPSHOT in the name, since that seems to not conform to the mvn naming conditions
  • Traffic court – no cop == not guilty!

  • Starting on the profile addition to UserInfoObject. It’s going to be XML so it will be easily extensible
  • Exchanged email with Mike K about trending widgets
  • Integrating programmatic styles. The styles are working, now I need to build a color-setting widget and then tie back into XML and upload to table_user

  • Finished up with the fixes to mvnAssist by adding support of the <classifier> tag to the local rep scan as well as remote repos
  • Working on making Ingest manager lay out better on smaller screens
  • Went to the S2F Thanksgiving lunch and deployed the new version
  • Tom is making good progress on getting mvnAssist to work with the new project. He’s through the Flex code and starting on the java.

7:30 – 6:30

  • Deployed new banner version, so hopefully the domain people can add a “go visibility” redirect
  • Need to make the VISIBILITY2 banner shorter
  • Make the IngestManager panel a little shorter
  • Have the IngestManager use the same stylesheet as Vis2
  • Add color preferences
  • Fixed a bug in mvnAssist – needed to split off <classifier> data (i.e. “en_US”) from the name of the file in the repo

8:00 – 4:00

  • Changed Basic and Advanced forms to use VDividedBox and fixed follow on formatting issues
  • Dong is adding a “Run Now” button to auto ingestor
  • Making some more slides for Boeing presentation
  • Helping Aaron with integrating CheckboxRenderer into Appboard
  • Deployed newest version

7:30 – 4:00

  • Spent most of the morning at the fort helping John W look at data. He’s becoming quite the power user of VISIBILITY2, using the advanced tab and typing sql. He wants more room for row selectino in the advanced tab
  • Talked to Charlie about putting together a proposal to mimic the enclave at edge – he’s working on it now
  • Putting together Boeing presentation
  • Showed Clift how to use EdgeUtils tree navigation tools

7:30 – 1:30

  • Walked John through producing a report using the tool
  • Integrated my file-based spooler for mvn help:describe
  • Worked with Dong to find out why flexmojo is creating circular references

Phil 11.12.2009

7:30 – 5:00

  • Deployed latest version at the fort and turned off the old VISIBILITY app
  • Make it so “clear text” clears the console for the selected tab
  • Add “Step 1 of 3, 2 of, 3… to Create Project”
  • Keep from importing yourself in the pom navigator? Or at least post an alert with a warning
  • Do not inset multiple identical dependencies with pom navigator
  • Look for the [ERROR] string in the output. There are two cases. The first is where there is an error that does not cause a build failure. These should be stored in a list and sent to the “Problems” plugin. The other is an “[ERROR] BUILD FAILURE”. This should store the lines that follow the error and present them in a dialog.
  • Spent the rest of the day getting the flexbuilder plugin to actually get its help printed to the console window.

7:30 -3:30

  • Needed to make a few changes to the details xml, but that was it. Autoingestors are working, proxy is behaving. Will take down VISIBILITY1 on Thursday
  • Fixed a subtle bug in tree view that would have redundant labels if the order of strings provided did not go from simpler to more complex
  • Adding backticks to quote out column headers so that they can be reserved words – done

Phil 11.9.2009

8:00 – 4:30

  • Spent most of the morning rearranging data (well, the names of the data, anyway) for Pat
  • Looked into why roles vanish sometimes. Barring learning something new tomorrow, it’s because when a new role is added, the old roles are deleted, which in turn causes the mapping tables to get deleted as well, since the numbers may change. IN other words, it’s a desired feature
  • Made it so that which tab is the default in the QueryBuilder settable by editing the setupXml file. Mike had a confusing experience, which we should keep from happening…

Phil 11.6.2009

7:30 – 4:30

  • Spent most of the day nailing down the SSL problem. It turns out that the problem was that the keystore that the Tomcat server was depending on before the box was bounced on Tuesday PM was no longer where Tomcat expected it. This meant that SSL/amfsecure didn’t work any more. In chasing this down, The SAs turned off SSL from the proxyand enabled http, amf would work inside the enclave, while https was still running outside. THis was fine with Firefox, but not IE. So after a day of running around, we got a keystore running on the Edge box that Tomcat now points to explicitly, and turned on SSL from the proxy to the edge box. Tat fixed it
  • Deployed a new version of Visibility with some bug fixes and the ability to alias in Details, which should make things *really* interesting when all those pieces are changed. Ah, well
  • Spent some time with Tom trying to get him set up with MvnAssist. His system hung on the ingestion. Not sure why.

Phil 11.5.2009

7:30 – 4:00

  • Set up the xml for the 4 details tables that S2F is interested in
  • Discovered that VISIBILITY is still not working in IE. Waiting on a fix
  • Got the tree problem fixed
  • Back to the fort to work on the SSL problem. Burned a disk for the new version to deploy while I’m there

  • Came in to a broken VISIBILITY2. It looks like the proxy server is no longer routing requests to the edge server. The old domain still works, but I can’t get the endpoints to work. My guess is that the fix is going to take a while, since the last person who fixed the proxy is gone. It took most of the day, but all is fixed.
  • Discussed the new file layout for VIS2. We will be on full auto-ingest with the legacy VISIBILITY turned off.
  • Seeing if I can figure out how to get the following to show up properly in a tree view: foo, foo_bar. Right now, only foo_bar will show.
