[ecf-dev] ECF conference call for 1/11/2009 cancelled...plus progress report
|
Hi Folks,
I cannot make the normal weekly time tomorrow (Monday 1/11/2010), so I'm
going to cancel this week's call.
If you have items you need to/wish to discuss, please either contact me
directly about them (if they need immediate attention from me), and/or
put them on the agenda for next week. See here to add to the agenda:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse_Communication_Framework_Project
See below for a progress report on some of the things that have been
going on WRT ECF 3.2 development. I will be following up on many/all of
these over the next few weeks. If I've missed things that others are
working on please let me and everyone know.
Thanks,
Scott
See below for a progress report on some of the things that have been
going on with ECF. For some of the things, I've used my 'ECF recent
progress for 3.2' note from Nov 10:
http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/ecf-dev/msg03086.html
a) Smack 3.1.0
Smack 3.1.0 is now being used for the xmpp provider. This bug
resolved: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=276879
Google Services Provider:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=287337. I have not heard
anything on the bug from Nuwan Sam. Nuwan, please contact me directly
and we will move this forward.
SIP Call Provider:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=193388. I have not heard
anything on the bug from Harshana. Harshana, please contact me and we
will move this forward.
b) AOL/ICQ provider contribution
I haven't heard anything recent from Pavel on this bug:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=293705
c) Newsreader Contribution
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=285711. I've been in
contact with Wim Jongman about this contribution, and they are doing
further additions (i.e. to the ECF nntp provider impl and test code),
and I (Scott) will be submitting Wim as a new ECF committer this week
(to support further work on the nntp and app code...and to work
on/contribute to other aspects of ECF such as zookeeper-based discovery
API impl)
d) ECF IPC Contribution
Thanks to Dann Martens, and Clarke Hobbie, the ECF IPC contribution is
moving forward. See
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=286744. See also a status
report last week from Dann at:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/ECF_Conference_Call_12.21.2009
e) Declarative Services + ECF remote services example/tutorial
I (Scott) have recently introduced a 'hello world' remote services app
that uses DS (for service registration on host, and service lookup and
injection on the client). See here in ECF repo:
/cvsroot/rt
/org.eclipse.ecf/examples/bundles/org.eclipse.ecf.examples.remoteservices.ds.hello.host
/org.eclipse.ecf/examples/bundles/org.eclipse.ecf.examples.remoteservices.ds.hello.consumer
See also this bug: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=293125
Also, Bryan Hunt has submitted an EclipseCon 2010 talk proposal on this
topic: https://www.eclipsecon.org/submissions/2010/view_talk.php?id=1454
I'm hoping that Bryan will be able to use the new hello ds host/consumer
for the EclipseCon presentation (but, of course, the content is up to
him)....assuming it's accepted, of course.
f) Transition to Remote Services from RFC 119
I've completed this work. See bug:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=290446.
I (Scott) will also be blogging about the work (i.e. describing the
implementation and it's unique characteristics) over this next week.
g) REST provider
I (Scott) did another major refactoring of the REST provider last week
(week of 12/28/2009). This was to accomplish two things:
i) address bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=297239
ii) 'move up' some of the rest apis...into the
org.eclipse.ecf.remoteserve bundle rather than the
org.eclipse.ecf.remoteservice.rest bundle...i.e. IRemoteCallable rather
than IRestCallable). This way it will be more amenable to being used
for implementing non-rest-based remote service clients (as well as
simplifying/reducing size of o.e.e.remoteservice.rest).
h) Google Wave Provider
Good progress being made on provider bundle(s) on ECF OSU Open Source
Lab site. See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=280347. I
(Scott) am going to be continuing work on this provider this week (i.e.
1/11/2010), now that the remote services work is largely complete, and
the REST implementation is complete.
I) New Directions: SOAP-based remoteservices client provider
As part of some work that I did last week on the REST provider (i.e. the
generalization of the rest client API), I've opened a bug to implement a
SOAP-based ECF remote services client provider using Axis and/or Axis2.
This should now be quite straightforward and I've opened this bug to
track: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=298720
