8:00 – 4:00

  • Built a framework to hold two stepper motors. Going to attach some strain gauges this morning. Not sure if they’ll be ready by this afternoon. We’ll see.
  • Need to add a higher level controller to coordinate the two motors
  • Need to submit for reimbursement

  • Woke up at 4:00 this morning. Urk.
  • Made some arms for the stepper motors. Need to put strain gauges on them today
  • Need to clean up the mess I made hunting down the r != n problem yesterday
  • Let’s see what happens when I try to run a more substantial hunk of code… Success!
  • Turning on the restful services. Done. Tested with jUnit, but haven’t tried to call it with jython. Kind of afraid to this late in the day. I think I’ll try tomorrow

Dong 03.10.2010

  • struggled with RoleTreeItemRenderer for a while… manual update of the selected array is required
  • tried tweaking the heap size of FlexBuilder; 1024m made FlexBuilder to crash on Design view…. reduced to 512m
  • continue working on User Permissions

  • Yep, John went to the hospital on Monday.
  • After finding the bill for the space on the door yesterday, Dong and I are getting nervous about the possibility of getting evicted – I.e. servers on the street. We’re thinking of moving our repositories off of the local servers and into the cloud. Maybe a dreamhost account (root account, ftp, svn, trac, wordpress and joomla)? Checked and found that vis-n.com is available
  • Adding sampling to the scripting interface. Hmm. Not sure if I needed it after all. Turns out that the problem was that TextArea uses ctrl-m (CR) instead of ‘n’ to separate lines. Jython didn’t like that. Going to clean up tomorrow.

Dong 03.09.2010

  • got user/role management pretty much functional
    • add, delete, modify users

  • Dong found a ‘past-due’ notice taped to the door this morning
  • Got some data to try entering

Mike 3.8.10

  • Added a Flex service for accessing uploaded icons
  • Added a simple TileList panel with a few buttons for uploading and managing icons

Dong 03.08.2010

  • cascade delete working on all tables; roles, users, and user_roles
  • changed the SuperUser’s id and parent_id to 1; points to itself to fix cascade errors. Deleting SuperUser deletes all roles in the table!!!!!!
  • add, delete, update roles working
  • add, delete, update users working
  • roles in the tree are now pre-selected for assigned user
  • working on user roles and role users

  • Nothing new at the client today.
  • Putting together the Scripting webapp.
  • Login (the Flex side) is done.
  • Working on the scripting layout.

Feldman Project Log Day 2

  • Worked with Phil to get framework together
  • Got it working.  Need to declare Enum completely in parent class so all states that children are going to use should be declared there.
  • Must use parent variables for Enum.  If not they will not be able to set equal to the other.
  • Made angleToSteps formula _angle/1.8 * 16 this seems to work very accurately.  Obviously the Stepper with the gear box will need a separate formula to move it correctly but this will work for the other 2.
  • Tried to get it to loop the movement not working currently.  Only move once per run.

Phil 3.5.2010

8:00 -4:30

  • Tried to log into the demo this morning. Couldn’t reach the meeting site because of certificate errors, and could call in because the conference system couldn’t parse my phone’s keypad entry

  • Working on building an RCS hierarchy
