Re: Bazaar Anjuta Plugin

Week 5
-----------------------------------------------

First off I will be gone all of this next week on vacation so next weeks report should be empty. Also I won't have internet until about this time next week so if anyone needs to get a hold of me I will email back as soon as possible.

This week I didn't get anything done with the log parsing like I said I would in last weeks report. I found that I shouldn't continue working on that until I got a lot of my previous stuff to a more stable point. So that has been what I have been doing the last few days. Mainly going through my commands and making sure that it is impossible for a user to execute a command that will fail by alerting them in the GUI of any problems they have.

This will continue when I get back to the point where I feel stable enough to continue with commands that needs their output parsed.

Week 4
--------------------------------------

This week I switched a lot of my commands to use the command line interface. I figured they should stay the most stable over time. Along with that I started putting in some of the more advanced options into the GUI. This will be an ongoing process.

This next week will be mainly trying to get log output working and parsed correctly into the GUI. That should round out the application to the point where I can hopefully open it up for people to start testing next week.

Week 3
--------------------------------------

This week was mainly getting setup for Week 4.

I broke my plugin away from the Anjuta base so instead of it taking 5+ minutes to test a change, now it takes 20 seconds. Which I should have done a long time ago. I think the reason why is because I was dreading the use of autotools.

I came to the conclusion I couldn't do everything from the C/Python API for Bazaar so I took at James Liggett's Git plugin and saw how we was doing his command line stuff and he made it seem really nice. So I am going to work on getting it figured out this week so I can work on the commands I can't do from C/Python.

Also I got a lot of the help from the author of the xml-output plugin for Bazaar. It basically takes typical Bazaar output and puts it into XML form for easier parsing. Which will save me a lot of trouble with parsing the output which would be sure to change between Bazaar versions.

Week 2
---------------------------------------

This week I finished getting the basic UI up for some of the most common operations.

Commit
Revert
--------
Push
Pull
Export
--------
Tags
Log
Status
Changes
--------
Branch
Merge
--------
Add
Remove
Ignore
--------
Init

A lot of them are already operational and some of the others have a lot of the code done they just need to put everything together.

This week I will continue to start filling in the features.

I decided to open a new thread for my reports then just reply to it in the following weeks.
