* '''Top priority''' this week is getting API things done for M5. Plan items are currently more important than bug priorities.
+
* '''Top priority''' this week is getting M5 stable.
 +
** [[TM 2.0 M5 Testing]]
 +
** New build on [http://download.eclipse.org/dsdp/tm/downloads/drops/I20070220-1126 I20070220-1126]
 +
*** New wizard problems fixed
 +
*** Please test thoroughly today!
 +
** We'll have more I-builds at least once every day until M5. But lets find the issues first before we start fixing minor ones
 +
** Invest 2-3 hours of testing before starting the bugfix cycle
 +
* '''Current plan items and API things:'''
 +
** Changes in Platform M5 and M6:
 +
*** Official API for ssh prefs
 +
*** ssh now part of cvs feature
 +
*** Helpserver changed, Userdocs not accessible right now; DaveD will check
 
** ([https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=173772 Bugzilla#173772]) '''RSE New Connection Wizard Rework'''
 
** ([https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=173772 Bugzilla#173772]) '''RSE New Connection Wizard Rework'''
−
*** Work started. Goal is to make the new connection wizard looking and behaving like standard Eclipse new, import or export wizards. This should and will include support of categories in the new connection dialog. Current newConnectionWizardDelegate extension point and implementation is duplicating more or less existing Eclipse wizard framework functionality (via WizardDialog.setWizard(...) and IWizardPage.getWizard()). Fallback to use as much of standard Eclipse interfaces and existing functionality as possible (IWizardNode, IWizardRegistry, IWizardDescription, IWizardCategory, WizardSelectionPage and related).
 
−
*** Does any one has a problem with reworking newConnectionWizardDelegate extension point to be a newConnectionWizard extension point contributing a standard IWizard??
 
−
** [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=173042 173042] (Uwe) Improved / pluggable Refresh

 +
*** Attached on bugzilla; '''AI Martin''' will upload refactored version after M5
 +
*** No need to rush anything into bugzilla, DaveD to work with Kushal on finishing the contribution
 
** [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=170923 170923] (DaveD) UI/Non-UI splitting
 
** [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=170923 170923] (DaveD) UI/Non-UI splitting
−
*** OK for martin to continue this work as outlined?
+
*** Preferences finished, these were the hardest; more stuff to do - DaveD really wants to get it done soon after M5
−
*** Be able to do ssh non-ui only? Would need an API for password / passphrase prompting in RSE core.
+
 
** [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=170627 170627] (DaveM) ISystemFilter in SystemViewElementAdapter.getChildren()

−
*** Tobias looking at a solution where SubSystem.resolveFilterString() returns wrapper objects which also hold a context
+
*** DaveM wants to get rid of the FilterString stuff in IRemoteFile now that IContextObject works
−
*** Doing this for Windriver now; looking at a solution that can be shared by RSE
+
*** getImageDescriptor, getLabel should also get the context
 +
*** more to do to get closer aligned with Platform (bugzilla bug exists)
 
** [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/showdependencytree.cgi?id=170922 170922] (DaveM, Martin) Making as much as possible "internal": SystemView, SystemFilterReferenceAdapter, Subsystem Impls

−
*** AI: component owners to come up with a list by thursday!!
+
*** What should be the recommended way of re-using existing subsystems against a new systemType
 +
*** Registering FTP or ssh against Windows will not be case insensitive; roots, drives etc are all unix-style
 +
*** DaveM: Dstore overrides SubSystemConfiguration for Windows in order to provide different filters etc; The SubsystemConfiguration defines the filters etc
 +
*** If we make SubsystemConfiguration public, we'll also need to make stuff API that is being returned; probably make some methods final that return non-API interfaces
 +
*** What people win: createDefaultFilterPools(), isCaseSensitive(), for UDA it might also be important
 +
*** '''Decision:''' make the SubSystemConfigurations API again for M5, '''AI Martin''' make it API
 +
*** Kushal: API Scanner? - Martin: too early to use yet, do it for M6

=== Other Stuff to Do ===
 
=== Other Stuff to Do ===
−
** '''1. API Improvements'''
+
* Reduce number of plugins (once UI/Non-UI separation is done, have e.g. ssh.core and ssh.ui but not more)
−
*** SystemType improvements; retargetable actions/commands;
+
** Prerequisite: need to be able and disable registered stuff; TBD through Capabilities
−
*** Asynchronous API/callbacks; How is the client informed about job completion?
+
** Move org.eclipse.rse.connectorservice.local into org.eclipse.rse.subsystems.core
−
*** IHostShell changes for Terminal;
+
** org.eclipse.rse.subsystems.core (collapse files.core, processes.core, shells.core)
−
** '''2. Make EFS work'''
+
** org.eclipse.rse.subsystems.dstore (collapse files.dstore, processes.dstore, shells.dstore)
−
*** Kushal looking at it - problem is the strictness of resource locking / scheduling rules
+
** Have it split up now in order to allow people "get what they need"; and as an example for ISVs "here's how to do your processes" - having stuff bundled together gives people the impression that they can't change it
−
*** What about putting EFS directly on top of IFileService without using the cache? Might avoid scheduling rules; might require further extensions of IFileService
+
−
** '''3. Play well with the Platform'''
+
−
*** get rid of platform "internal" access; this may also mean getting rid of customized extension points for adding actions
+
−
*** retargetable actions/commands; capabilities; icu4j; Orbit; ssh prefs; drag&drop
+
−
** '''4. Improve overall quality (unit tests; special characters; long filenames; background jobs; parallel access; logging; ...)
+
−
** '''5. New Features'''
+
−
*** Terminal-in-rse; Persistence-as-xmlfile; Service enablement
+
−
** Remove RSE Performance Logging; place contents of logging into core
+
−
** Reduce number of plugins (once UI/Non-UI separation is done, have e.g. ssh.core and ssh.ui but not more)
+
 
* Add Montavista shell processes subsystem
 
* Add Montavista shell processes subsystem
 +
** Martin wants to put it into processes.core
 +
** DaveM: confusing for people who want to use it
 +
** Would it be better to have a Process Service to interface with the Shell Service rather than doing a subsystem --> Allows to take the ProcessServiceSubsystem and choose which service to use
 +
** '''Decision:''' Put it into its own plugin but part of the core feature for now, think about consolidating plugins in next iteration
 +
* Other stuff
 
** Orbit bundles to be added differently

* General code cleanup -- to do right after M4:

** Get rid of unused icons, e.g. rse.ui/icons/full/obj16/system390_obj.gif, IBM_logo.gif
 
−
** Get rid of commented out source code
