−
**** SystemView, SystemFilterReferenceAdapter, Subsystem Impls
+
−
*** UI/Non-UI separation (Condition of Satisfaction: be able to do a headless launch; try to reduce number of plugins? - DaveM be able to use service layer without profiles, persistence etc.; DaveM could envision service layer as part of ECF or similar; put subsystem.files together with subsystem.files)
+
−
*** Be able to do ssh non-ui only? Would need an API for password / passphrase prompting in RSE core.
+
−
*** SystemType improvements; retargetable actions/commands;
+
−
*** read-only flags [java.io: cannot change a file to writable] want a capability API for services to report if they can set r-o or not? - Not yet, just report an error.
+
−
*** timestamp, ro-flags: still TBD for ssh and ftp
+
−
*** Streams for IHostShell, IFileService - upload already allows an InputStream; download will need new API; may be a problem for dstore since the agent "pushes" the file; ftp allows canceling the download
+
−
*** Asynchronous API/callbacks; How is the client informed about job completion? Event? Callback? Progressmonitor? - Progressmonitor is created by the job typically, so we have no control over the progress [could use a SubProgressMonitor]? Use Java5 Concurrency classes?
+
−
*** IHostShell changes for Terminal;
+
−
** '''2. Make EFS work'''
+
−
*** Kushal looking at it - problem is the strictness of resource locking / scheduling rules
+
−
*** 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

*** DaveM to check
−
*** Import/Export & User actions; Terminal-in-rse; Persistence-as-xmlfile; Service enablement
+
** '''2. Make APIs usable for clients, harden the APIs, improve documentation'''
−
* Think about '''limiting the API''': Make APIs internal along the way of updating documentation, and making Unit tests, we'll see some API we want "internal".
+
*** Make stuff internal: SystemView, SystemFilterReferenceAdapter, Subsystem Impls
−
** 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
+
−
* '''Fix N-builds''' (second workspace, use Ted's scripts)
+
−
** Orbit bundles to be added differently
+
−
** Unittests to run every night
+
−
** Version Number Changes to be done by Martin

** Copyright Year Changes
