7:00 – 3:30

  • Customer site is really quiet this morning. Everything is working, including the fixed querylog script
  • More maven today.
    • Pulling out Create Project to make it its own component
    • Going to have the “flexmojo” 4.0 xml components on the webserver so we don’t have to bundle the xml with the jar.

7:30 – 4:30 VISIBILITY

  • Deployed new PPM
  • Meeting with Trish
    • Ran into errors saving contract information in Financial data. Exceptions follow:
      • Duplicate Entry
      • Lock wait timeout exceeded
    • This seems to be tied up with data already appearing in the Project Contracts table. I had created a project earlier with multiple components. I had then added two contracts with Amounts of $500.  Trish then created a similar project, and the same data was in the first non-summary view. Deleting and re-selecting the data caused each item to then be shown twice. I have a screenshot of this
    • A new item entered in the “AddNew” combobox should be the selected item on close. Currently it is the first alphabetical item.
    • Summary data just needs the project name.
  • Had an error with PublishSupportObject line 130. “Data too long for column ‘content’ at row 1”. Workaround was to change the pull so that it only grabs the last 10 days of data for display.
  • Working on getting Flash4 and Maven to work together

Visibility Deployer

  • Have cleaned up the code significantly for the installer.
  • Simplified the configuring method so it doesn’t need special instructions for each file.
  • Made it so that it reads information about the program its deploying from a config file.  This way if you want to use it for another program, you only have to change the config file not the code.
  • The program requires that you make .template files of the the .xmls with special tags in the spots that may need to be changed.  The currently supported tags and more information on how to set up the template files will be included in a help file.
  • There are a couple of hard crashes that are happening at the moment under certain circumstances.  Have to add in a bit more error checking.  Also the Printed status report for the user is not publishing all the actions that it did before the changes.
  • Was having a problem getting the visibility database set-up.  After talking to Phil, I don’t think its a problem with the installer at the moment.  Need to ask Dong about servlet that assists with database set-up.

Strain Guages

  • Attached 10 strain gauges
  • Wired all but 2 “hardest” ones(can only strain my eyes like that for so long)
  • Tested horizontal axis strain gauges.  Need to turn gain all the way up to get significant readings, however, there was not nearly as much leverage as there wil be with the whole arm attached.
  • More testing tomorrow and if all goes well seal it with epoxy

  • Contract Management modified to use ContractManagementDG
  • Added Create BF45 Email button, replaces Request and Send to BF buttons
  • MIPR Request Form and Statement of Work details added to Funding Request
  • Highlight editable column (amount) in the Project Contract Management
  • configured laptop-13 for Windows test server
    • installed Tomcat, set up SSL
    • installed XAMPP
  • packed up PPM and test deployed to laptop-13, looks good.

7:30 – 4:00 VISIBILITY

  • Sent a follow up note to Yonald, showing a 3D visualizer plugin I did for Eclipse
  • Printed out the Greek God presentation so that I can do a writeup of new capabilities to send to the VISIBILITY users
  • Install Flashbuilder today!
    • Installed Flashbuilder
    • Installed Plugin
    • Installed Eclipse 3.6
    • Added MvnAssist 1.8.3 to both
    • Copied all project files over to a directory I can break
    • compiled EdgeUtils with warnings
      • Application is now FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication
      • It turns out that the warnings are due to the fact that the pom file is requesting older versions of things. Looks like it’s time to update MavenAssist
  • Updated the maven repository with the latest swfs, now that it’s working again…
  • Added an archetype setting for flexmojos to the user settings. You add it to your settings.xml file like so:

<profile>

<properties>
<flexMojoArchetype>4.0-SNAPSHOT</flexMojoArchetype>
</properties>

</profile>

  • Now getting the following error: “Error resolving version for ‘org.sonatype.flexmojos-maven-plugin’ : Plugin requires Maven version 3.0-beta-1” Looks like it’s time to try upgrading Maven too.

7:30 – 4:00 VISIBILITY

  • 8:00 meeting with Trish. We are under 1 page of notes! Need to go over with Dong – done
  • Need to test and burn a new version of VISIBILITY with the fixes from yesterday in. I need to have enough time to install and fix the dashboards I made for the presentation yesterday – done
  • Added the ability to store and reload physics settings in a panel
  • Panels now open in the correct tab.
  • Meeting with Yonald Chery. Went well, I think. He’s going to look for funding.

Mike 7.13.2010

Things done recently:

  • Added new widget buttons to the GIS Map as well as the status list.  Both will attempt to create a new query widget for only items currently selected by matching on ALMOST all available fields.  Several fields must be left out because they are reserved or may change if the data is updated (uid, timestamp, etc.)
  • Fixed an issue on the status list where if ‘name’ was not an available column, no text would appear under each icon.  Now if name is not available, a column is picked at random and used until the user picks one themselves

Things to do:

  • Check on issues caused by Phil’s data sheet
  • Add the following to save / loading:
    • Make sure it opens to correct tab (data, unique count, map, status list, network map, etc.)
    • Record which column user selected for status name
    • Save Network Map force settings
  • Issue with blank rows in status list widget?
  • Automate default force levels on Network Map or at least add a threshold to prevent odd behavior

Dong Shin 07.13.2010

  • continue working on MySQL Browser
    • added Database/Table navigator

  • created SVN and Blog account for Keil
  • Amount in the Project Contract Management is editable
    • added amount in _budget_centers_contracts table
  • changed Summary Data title (all names separated by , )
  • Add New ComboBox preselects first available one
