Re: [aperi-dev] Some issues about Aperi
|
Hi,
thanks for the reply.
Is it possible to get a 'Good Build' ( ->
http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Build_and_Release_Process )?
It would be nice for me to test the plugins not on Aperi 0.3.1, but on a
newer version of Aperi.
TODD> Aperi 0.3.1 is the newest build (a couple of weeks old) that
has had a certain degree of testing and validation. Are you having
problems with it? Please share any bugs or issues you have with
it. http:// bugs.eclipse.org is the ideal place for posting bugs.
It will be great to get additional feedback as our
testing environments are limited and community validation is of
upmost importance.
The version 0.3.1 is very good (though i can't do many things, because
i have no SAN here (just a database ...))
The problem for me is that i have no binary build to test my plugins
on other machines, and i have some problems with building it myself.
The bug 191750 was opened after Aperi 0.3.1, so far i know.
It would be great to have a download possibility on the homepage at
http://www.eclipse.org/aperi/downloads.php where is already an entry for
this.
TODD> Eclipse uses mirroring (which is more scalable) for large
file download Once you click on the 'download' link, it takes you
directly to the file.
Sorry, it was not clear what i wrote. I know about the mirroring of
Eclipse, but what I meant was a link
for the newer (weekly?) 'Interim Builds'.
Is it possible to get the installer not create an Aperi database, but
use an existing TPC Database?
TODD> Interesting requirement. If this is something you need,
perhaps we can discuss further and you can help in designing that
sort of integration. You and I could work on something like that.
We'd have to spec
out all of the issues, but I'm sure it can be done.
I need this because we have no SAN, we just have a TPC database. For
now, I changed some things (mostly in the configuration) to get it
work with the TPC database.
But perhaps it would be good for others, too. Think of a situation
like this: A company wants to test Aperi and
has TPC already working. They don't want to do a whole new discovery,
because it costs time. So it would be great to use the existing data,
wouldn't it?
Where can I find documentation for extensions and extension points of
Aperi (especially for the 0.3 versions)?
TODD> For which component do you need? The best bet here is to
talk with some of the component experts. This sort of discussion
will help flesh out the appropriate documentation.
The most difficult thing for me was the GUI (-> aperiMenuPath). I
found no other way to get into the GUI, especially i couldn't get in
the BaseTree ...
The other thing is the dataserver. The documentation is good, but very
short. Some examples would be great.
Most of problems i had were with the Request/Response objects and my
own RequestHandler. It's now working, but
it was hard to get it so.
Best regards,
Benjamin
