Ciao GNOME.Weekly Report 6:GSOC

5th July 2011 : During the sixth week of gsoc I worked on the following :-

• Added Sequence level to Louis Braille Activity :I added a level to Louis Braille Activity at the end of story to let kids re-arrange the sequence.


• Interface of New Activity Lotto Braille :This activity is a two player network.Computer acts as the master for the game.The master has control over lotto board & users are given braille coded tickets.User has to login to channel to get started with.Next week I'll make it work over the local network.Currently, I am experimenting out with socket python library and testing out the scripts.Check out the code here.Code snippet :-
  

  
  # Adress and port
  self.mcast_adress = "227.234.253.9"
  self.port = 15922
  self.mcast_timer = 0
  self.sock = None
  # Used to recognize our own network message
  self.uuid = uuid.uuid1().hex
  
  
  try:
        # Start the server
        self.sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM, socket.IPPROTO_UDP)
        self.sock.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_REUSEADDR, 1)
        self.sock.bind(('', self.port))
  
        mreq = struct.pack('4sl', socket.inet_aton(self.mcast_adress), socket.INADDR_ANY)
        self.sock.setsockopt(socket.IPPROTO_IP, socket.IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP, mreq)
        self.sock.setblocking(0)
        self.timer_interval = 10
  
        self.mcast_timer = gobject.timeout_add(self.timer_interval, self.mcast_read)
        print self.mcast_timer
  except:
        gcompris.utils.dialog(_("GCompris ERROR: Failed to initialize the 
        network interface.You cannot communicate."),None)
