Aug 10 16:38:28 nags prem: thats nice
Aug 10 16:38:42 nags Raghu: about your gedit test-scripts ?
Aug 10 16:38:51 prem Also working on implementing the new appmap generation and searching logic ...
Aug 10 16:38:52 nags Raghu: also biswa's eog scripts ?
Aug 10 16:39:02 nags kaveri: any updates from your side ?
Aug 10 16:40:26 nags shaheed, bandini: updates gnome-terminal test scripts ?
Aug 10 16:41:10 nags it seems wipro guys are bit busy
Aug 10 16:41:19 shaheed nags: not yet started, but will make it ready by the date we have planned ;)
Aug 10 16:41:28 nags shaheed: cool
Aug 10 16:41:47 nags prem: about your new pyldtp algorithm ?
Aug 10 16:42:43 prem I have sent a mail to the mailing list, describing the core logic used and its difference from the current approach
Aug 10 16:43:00 prem Sorry for the late mail ;)
Aug 10 16:43:37 nags prem: a small short note here ?
Aug 10 16:43:52 prem Sure ... For those who haven't checked their mail let me give brief note on that
Aug 10 16:44:18 nags prem: also me, who haven't checked the mail yet :D
Aug 10 16:44:45 nags what all modules this will affect ?
Aug 10 16:45:08 prem In the current approach for getting the accessible handle of an object we browse through all the objects in the entire dialog till we reach the desired one
Aug 10 16:45:52 prem This will obviously cost lot of CPU and memory
Aug 10 16:46:28 nags prem: okay, so this new approach is going to increase the execution performance. Thats a next mile stone for LDTP
Aug 10 16:47:03 shaheed prem: curious to know, in evolution for few objects the index changes after doing some operations, how you are going to address this issue with your new logic
Aug 10 16:47:04 prem In the new model we can store the child_index with respect to the immediate parent ... thus at runtime with few calls to Accessible_ChildAtIndex
Aug 10 16:47:17 prem we can get the required object
Aug 10 16:47:37 nags where we are going to store the child_index ?
Aug 10 16:48:05 prem shaheed: This new approach will help in readjusting the appmap at runtime ( thought it is not planned for the first step )
Aug 10 16:48:34 prem nags: We can store it in the attributes hashtable corresponding to evey object
Aug 10 16:49:18 prem I have planned to deliver the primary appmap generation and searching algorithm for the sept first week release
Aug 10 16:50:00 prem Other features like dynamic appmap for a particular object, a small GUI for viewing the generated appmap (like we do using at-poke)
Aug 10 16:50:09 prem can be planned for future releases
Aug 10 16:50:39 nags prem: you mean to say at run time when running pyldtp ?
Aug 10 16:50:50 prem Guys , if you have queries and suggestions please let me know ...
Aug 10 16:51:10 nags prem: sure :)
Aug 10 16:51:31 prem nags: Do you mean the GUI feature
Aug 10 16:51:54 nags prem: we will take that offline ;)
Aug 10 16:52:07 prem nags: fine
Aug 10 16:53:53 nags guys anything from your side ?
Aug 10 16:54:22 prem nags: I am done ...
Aug 10 16:54:26 nags if not we can conclude this meeting :)
