Notes

• Last meeting: DSDP/TM/Committer Phone Meeting 24-Jul-2007

News & Review Action Items

Current Work

• Asterisk Conferencing
  • Karl to join the call today

• DSDP/TM/Face-to-face Meeting Toronto 17-Sep-2007
  • Confirmed Toronto Mon/Tue Sep 17/18 (+Wed half day)
  • DaveD confirmed, Javier and Martin confirmed & booked flights
  • AI DaveM talk to Pete Nicholls for a room 6-10 persons Mon Sep17 - Wed Sep19

• Unit Tests / TPTP AGR
  • Xuan adding more test cases for copyBatch()
    • Martin's advice: do small tests with small data if you can;
    • For large data, generate it on the fly (e.g. create 2000 files of 2 meg size each)
    • Fuzz testing: have a random number generator; in case it fails, save the files on which it failed and/or the Random number seed
    • Platform Core Tests: AI Martin direct Xuan to Symlink test
  • Xuan knows now how to change the daemon port and avoid the UI popup
  • Calling ISubSystem.internalResolveFilterString() worked slightly different in test than interactively - related to earlier supertransfer issue: when doing unit test, there is no cache whereas interactively there is already a cache
    • To work around: query the parent of archive first (in order to get the cache), then query the archive itself

• bug 193329 First Column in Table View
  • Martin: PropertyDescriptor quirks -- filling PropertyView differently than Tableview -- AI Martin to look at it

• Bugzilla:
  • Bugzilla 3.0 deployed - Saved Searches: Userprefs, import RSE open with patch, TM Hi-Pri, TM Review Requested
  • Pls dont forget setting the contributed kwd when setting a bug with a contributed patch FIXED
  • Wiki: Template notation for bugzilla bugs, see Eugene Kuleshov's Blog
  • tm-log.csv: Pls edit in text editor; or refresh after using Excel
  • Severity Major, hi-priority
  • DaveD:
    • bug 197937 AbstractSystemWizardPage: SystemMessageLine in title area of wizard dialogs, fix OK?
      • DaveD: broadcast the change to IBM RSE Users and didnt hear back - ok to go ahead
      • For certain error messages, IBM writes two levels of text (error itself, and procedure for fixing the error); but that's not being used in wizards; this feature is embedded in the SystemMessageLine construct
      • In other dialogs which do have a SystemMessageLine, this may be important; would need at least a procedure that allows getting the 2nd level text
      • AI Martin review whether AbstractSystemWizardPage did have a 2nd level access control before; but Dave not too concerned about it for the case of wizards
    • bug 194802 Persistence issue reported by Greg Watson: UI/Non-UI
      • DaveD has 1 more week before going on vacation; wants to address hi-pri issues before leaving (substitute: Xuan?)
    • bug 197036, bug 181939 All filter pools created on startup - lazy loading - likely to go to Future
  • DaveM: bug 196632 FTP Passive Mode Setting: Dont create PropertySet in the Constructor AI DaveM add the attachment AI Javier review and apply the patch
    • bug 196662 Refresh on Dispatch thread could be tricky since already in the event handler -- getObject() is there since the adapter has no exists() method; Service level API works different for missing parent directory on dstore and ssh
    • bug 196664 Refresh does too much work
  • Kevin: bug 187735, bug 194867 SystemView vs. TableView refresh issues
  • Javier: bug 197758 FTP classify symbolic links: API change or bug fix?
  • Martin: bug 197178 (CDT) Discussing Adapter Loading (we do it synchronously in Activator.start() of the Core plugins which is problematic)
    • bug 192610 EFS to be attacked next thing
  • Xuan: bug 191374 SSH Performance on large directory - fixed
    • bug 198143 DStore performance on large directory

• Javadoc Reviews: @since tag for new API, missing @param tags, ... can be fixed now for RSE since we are rebuilding just about every RSE plugin for 2.0.1 (except discovery, terminal, remotecdt, tests right now)
