7:30 – 5:00

• Deployed new version. Checked to see that the XML could be modified in the details view, but didn’t do a full change, since the tables will probably change soon
• Had a talk with Mike C. He should have the new data running soon
• Tried to get FlexBuilder to recognise the MvnAssist plugin.
  • Tried dropping  the jar in the plugin directory – nope
  • Tried dropping the jar in the Users/phil.feldman/Documents/FlexBuilder 3/configuration/plugins directory – nope
  • Tried wrappingthe plugin in a feature and then placing that into an update site, which FlexBuilder connected to and loaded, but the plugin does not show under the “Views…” popup

7:30 – 4:30

• Meeting with Anne
• Helped get Tom up and running. I think he’s there
• Working on ColumnQuestions – pretty much done
• Burned a disc

8:00 -4:00

• Hey! It’s not raining!
• Had a meeting with John W. and Mike C. to work out the Pat-compatible data format.
• Imported Mike’s changes
• Starting on query building in the ColumnQuestions widget. Done. Seems to work well enough to be the new basic query. Will deploy to laurelDemo and verify tomorrow. If it’s good, it’ll go to the Fort in the afternoon
• Dong is making good progress on the MvnAssist widget
• Tom is making newbie mistakes as expected, and getting the hang of things

7:30 -4:00

• Need to write up Anne’s bullets – done
• Need to write up a paragraph for what we’re going to do for S2F, S2, and S14 – done
• Finish ColumnQuestions – done up to the point that the query gets built
• Add the ability to set the banner text in the setupxml
• When loading a stored query by another user, was unable to save a question. Fixed. The saved query occasionally had double quotes. Wrote a filter to trap them
• MSTSC works *much* better than VNC!
• Helped Tom with getting his environment set up

7:30 -4:30

• Meeting with the S14 folks, that I think went well
• Sent Nick M an email trying to set up a meeting
• Showed Pat how to get some data with the tool
• Got the table XML description working on the server. Will integrate with the Flex side tomorrow. Hopefully with fewer meetings
• Wrote up project status for Brian
• Sent Mike my thoughts on a “Trend” component of the visualizer

7:30 – 4:00

• Meeting with John, Mike, and Brian about column names
• Working on Column view. Made good progress, but realized that all teh work really should be done on the server side. Going to port tomorrow

7:30 – 4:00

• Had to reset everyone’s roles today. Not sure why
• Trying to set up a meeting to discuss data and column headers
• Working on getting checkmarks and multiple selection to work using xml – done
• Thinking about adding <options> tag, which would be a bunch of “where clauses” that could be added to the base query.
  • Make a new tab, for the time being we’ll call it “columns”. It’s king of like questions
  • In the “Edit” section, there is a “start” button that runs a “select *” query. THis is then used to build an XML document that has all the columns (minus timestamp and uid) in it as <select> elements. THe contents of each column is read into a Dictionary and used to create a set of <where> elements under the <select>.
  • The XML is used to create a tree like Questions. THere is a TextArea that allows editing of the XML
  • Clicking on the <where> tags causes the query to add to the SELECTstatement. WHere cluses are “OR-ed” together
• Waiting for Anne to get back for meeting
• Had Dong get more aquainted with Maven so that we can automate our dev process a little better.
• Mesed up my Subversion access somehow. Spent some time chasing that down

7:30 -7:30

• Deployed the latest and greates at the Fort
• Added an edgeDemo user that has access to fake data so Jeff can demo
• Meeting ith ??? at 10:30
• Need to make the Questinos interface a bit more like VIS1 – then I think we may be done?
• Spent the rest of the afternoon working on Aarons build issues.

7:30 – 3:00

• Deployed the new version, there are a few bugs with the new tree views
  • “Set Query Builder” is not causing the appropriate table to be checked – may have been related to branch problems, below. Regardless, it seems to be working here
  • Clicking on the table (blue bar, not check box) selects the table but does not check the box – fixed
  • foo_bar_baz and foobar_baz will cause two branches, one for “foo” and one for “foobar”.  The “foobar” branch is correct, while the “foo” branch will have “foobar”entries in it. – fixed
• Need to move the parser to a static method in “utils” – done

7:30 – 4:00

• Updated data and found a few bugs. See yesterday’s post for details
• Working on changing table combobox to a tree – done.
• Doing the same to the questions page – done
• Rolled in Dong’s changes and burned a disk
• Wrote up my 20% plan for Brian

7:30 – 4:00

• Getting ready for the next deploy
• Deployed – there are still a few problems:
• We need to be able to delete uploaded files
• The date in the table Combobox is still the date of first ingest, not the last
• “temp” file is left in the upload directory on the server
• The table Combobox is getting way too many entries. Need to change it to a tree like the column view
