- Upcoming Work
- M4 bugs: PLEASE REVIEW M4 BUGS!!
- Inbox: REVIEW Assigned to Inbox
- Timing: Martin on vacation most of October; Release Review Sept.27, M5 is Sept.22
- Martins fixes will be in by Sept.27; manual test plans will exist
- Executing the test plans, and bugfixing after that to be done by IBM mostly
- Currently 142 bugs open, 18 P1/P2: P1/P2 bugs MUST be fixed by Sept. 15!
- Fallback for Martin on Sep27: DaveD or Michael Scharf
- Source Code Style & Cleanness
- We deliver not only a "working product" but also source code
- Clean source code increases contributor confidence, improves code readability, helps avoiding bugs
- Compiler Warnings: See Committer Howto
- Currently 484 Java warnings + 642 Javadoc warnings (Martin already fixed about 150 + 250)
- Code Ownership:
- See (and edit) DSDP/TM/Code Ownership
- Code Style and Format -- defer to next week
- Not been a focus so far
- RSE itself is inconsistent - e.g. if... without {} block is problematic
- Use JDT autoformat as much as possible: perhaps define an RSE-style and check in with the projects?
- Or use the standard eclipse style: might be problematic when merging RSE7 code into openRSE
- Change Requests
- Default colors for command view - white background, black or dark blue foreground
- Remove rseConfigDefaults extension point - Kushal
- Remove passwordPersistence extension point - Kushal
- Deprecated getRemoteProperty() --> Document property namespaces, reserve "org.eclipse.rse" namespace
- Features: Jakarta-commons, JUnit-framework, Discovery, EFS-Experimental, WR-Terminal (bug 152826)
- Jakarta-commons still important for Symbian
- Refactorings: DaveM did most important stuff; consider "finished" for now, continue with hi-pri bugs
- Subsystem Factory vs. Configuration: Going with Configuration for now, Martin started renaming *factory where he found it while working on compiler warnings.
- Kushal IConnectorService
- API Things
- Martin did some minor extension point cleanup (rename), see build notes of N-builds
- Service Error Reporting - bug 149472 - DaveD - API ok so far, final resolution? --> Create new different bug id for that one.
- Parallel Services - bug 142478 all queries in background - DaveM
- SystemRegistry.createHost for Javier
- bug 150168 dont commit immediately - DaveD
- Javier: not important at the moment; DaveD: probably fixed already
- bug 150265 allow specifying subsystem types - DaveM - wait for Javier to return
- Example: 1 Host providing shell and FTP (different categories)
- Problem: createHost() only creates a host with 1 service -- See video for service discovery, DaveM to take a look at it
- Need createHost() with a list of services
- Look at this again next week
- bug 150168 dont commit immediately - DaveD
- Making stuff internal - ssh, ftp: Martin; Core: List of candidates from DaveD?
- Obsolete API that's in the Platform now --> See RSE 2.0 Planning page
- Cleanup: API Doc (duplicates in interface and implementation!), JUnit tests, Context help, Test Plans, RSE-7-migration-docs, Copyrights, licenses
- Bug Work - please observe priorities
- DaveD: Team stuff
- Open bugs: P1, P2 bugs, API bugs, Open with Patch,
- Legal: JUnit (next monday?); Jakarta-commons (deferred!); WR Terminalview (passed!)
- Other items
- Tutorial: Update at the end of the release process, change instructions (re-use example code: We dont want to teach PDE)
- Manual test plans - in work by Martin
- EFS Experimental feature to be created by Martin
- Free discussion -- feelings, comments, critics
