One-to-One Chat Issues

October 19, 2006

I’ve finished integrating the one-to-one chat (i.e. private message) in the application, but there were issues that surfaced after the module was done. I’ve also implemented the tab-based system on the one-to-one chat (like the session chat) so all conversations will be placed in one frame/window (for better management).

Issues:

  • Opening and closing of the one-to-one chat window. It seems that an error happens somewhere in the code that I can’t seem to track.
  • Close button on each of the tab page. I’m looking for a way to add a close button on each of the generated tab page. I’m currently relying on the menu that would be used in removing the tabs.
  • Duplicate tab pages. I don’t know if it has any adverse effects on the sending and receiving of messages though.
  • Recipient of a message won’t see any messages being sent to him, unless he opens the window himself. This is of highest priority among the issues since a message must be delivered and seen on the recipient’s end.

All of these issues are GUI-related, unfortunately for me. But I’ll fix it. Although I’m going to move to the MUC part since it’s one of the required features. I’m still waiting for Hannah and/or Reah to finish the Roster part, so at least someone could help me with the MUC part.

:keeping my fingers crossed: :kinda sleepy as well:

Demo blues

October 15, 2006

So we weren’t able to present everything on the demo, just the login, logout and account creation part. To make things worst we had to make last minute changes because we weren’t able to use jabber.org due to lack of connectivity in JRDC. I found out at home that they too had problems with our DSL so I guess something really happened. I thought for a moment that the higher beings were convening against us. Good thing we were able to use Wildfire as a local server. I wanted to use this laptop as the server and the Solaris pc’s as the client stations, but for some reason, the connection always timed out. I ping-ed the IP address of this laptop at that time using Josiah’s group’s Windows pc and still had timed out results.

Well, at least we still have until Friday to finish this. Two modules left until this sem is done. I’m thinking of redesigning the whole look and feel of the application during the break to make it our own. I guess you can say that I’m tired of the usual Java look and feel of the GUI’s, not that I’m against it.

Preparation for the demo

October 12, 2006

well, the second presentation was over and now we’re hustling over the completion of the requirements that needs to be done for tomorrow’s demo.

Thesis draft is being buffed up (especially the RRL part)

Pisara Editor application modules (integration with prototype–meaning functional):

  • Login (ongoing) (done)
  • Account Creation (done)
  • One-to-One Chat (later) (ongoing)
  • Multi-User Chat (later) (ongoing)
  • Logout (uh… yeah, probably tomorrow) (done)

yeah, cramming… i know. apparently i had some last minute issues with my other cs subject. go figure, right?
