CODESO READTHIS FILE ====================== This file created 2006-06-02 to track changes to the CODESO source code. Release WHT-RELEASE-633 ======================= This is the "ground zero" of the CODESO observing software. Based on OASISOBS_V2 release WHT_RELEASE-624. Functionality ------------- Provides a basic working system. The following commands are available:- start/shutdownserver start/shutdowngui start/shutdownoasisserver start/shutdownoasisgui config servercmd resourcecmd The following scripts are important:- add/delete_codeso_resources add/delete_codesoapp_resources Bugs and Limitations -------------------- This V1 release still does NOT implement the IDL as specified in the document:- "CODESO: Overview and IDL Interfaces (Revision 1)" This will be left to a later V2.xx release. This release stil lincludes the codeso applications. These will be moved to a separate codesoapp package in a separate release. Still To Do's ------------- Changes ------- Files Added :- not yet applicable Files Deleted :- not yet applicable Files Modified :- not yet applicable Placed into CVS Repository under release tag WHT-RELEASE-633 ============================================================ Release WHT-RELEASE-641 ======================= Added support for servercmd. Added event throttling to EpicsPvStatusMonitor in an attempt to reduce machine loading when EPICS mechanisms are moved. Functionality ------------- Provides a basic working system. The following commands are available:- start/shutdownserver start/shutdowngui start/shutdownoasisserver start/shutdownoasisgui config servercmd resourcecmd The following scripts are important:- add/delete_codeso_resources add/delete_codesoapp_resources Bugs and Limitations -------------------- This V1 release still does NOT implement the IDL as specified in the document:- "CODESO: Overview and IDL Interfaces (Revision 1)" This will be left to a later V2.xx release. This release stil lincludes the codeso applications. These will be moved to a separate codesoapp package in a separate release. Still To Do's ------------- Changes ------- Files added:- jb_local_idl_depend added idl depend task for use with jb proj Files deleted:- none Files modified:- ServerTool fixed to use server resources known by ResourceManager ResourceManager slightly improved diagnostic messages. WrappedSyslog modified confusing comment about Syslog being initialised. now says interface library initialised. ServerRunner now associates unique syslog string with each server. build.xml turned off default excludes when zipping - ensures CVS files also get zipped. codeso.jpx.local changed minor details associated with jb proj resourcecmd.bat reduced number of command line args ControlGui.java changed syslogging to show all GUI information with GUI identifier EpicsPvStatusMonitor now discards oldest items if more than a certain number of items in the status changed queue. Currently max items in queue is set to 2. WrappedPv.java removed superfluous debug. CorbaInterface.java upgraded initialisation messages to ENG status Placed into CVS Repository under release tag WHT-RELEASE-641 ============================================================ Release WHT-RELEASE-643 ======================= The previous release had a concurrency bug which could occasionally cause lockup. A new class - the DiscardingQueue - has now been implemented which throws away its oldest elements when the queue becomes full. The EpicsPvStatusMonitor has now been modified to use this class instead of its previous internal homegrown solution. Functionality ------------- Provides a basic working system. The following commands are available:- start/shutdownserver start/shutdowngui start/shutdownoasisserver start/shutdownoasisgui config servercmd resourcecmd The following scripts are important:- add/delete_codeso_resources add/delete_codesoapp_resources Bugs and Limitations -------------------- This V1 release still does NOT implement the IDL as specified in the document:- "CODESO: Overview and IDL Interfaces (Revision 1)" This will be left to a later V2.xx release. This release stil lincludes the codeso applications. These will be moved to a separate codesoapp package in a separate release. Still To Do's ------------- Changes ------- Files added:- src/es/iac/ing/codeso/gen/DiscardingQueue.java new class that never blocks on put, but which discards its oldest elements when full. test/es/iac/ing/codeso/TestEpicsPvStatusMonitor.java added support for testing EpicsPvStatusMonitor Files deleted:- none Files modified:- READTHIS this file src/es/iac/ing/codeso/epics/EpicsPvStatusMonitor.java modified to use new DiscardingQueue test/es/iac/ing/codeso/TestEpicsPvStatusMonitorNcuSlide.java modified to remove hard coded dependence on codesoapp. Placed into CVS Repository under release tag WHT-RELEASE-643 ============================================================ Release WHT-RELEASE-686 ======================= First release of CODESO Version 2.0. This is development software and is not yet of production quality. This is the ground zero on which the production release will be based. Functionality ------------- Provides a basic working system. The following commands are available:- start/shutdownserver start/shutdowngui start/shutdownoasisserver start/shutdownoasisgui config servercmd resourcecmd The following scripts are important:- add/delete_codeso_resources add/delete_codesoapp_resources Bugs and Limitations -------------------- This is software and under development and is not yet of production quality. Still To Do's ------------- Changes ------- Files added:- Files deleted:- Files modified:- Placed into CVS Repository under release tag WHT-RELEASE-686 ============================================================ Release WHT-RELEASE-702 ======================= Fixed broken javadoc and improved commenting and structure associated with resource manager. Functionality ------------- Provides a basic working system. The following commands are available:- start/shutdownserver start/shutdowngui start/shutdownoasisserver start/shutdownoasisgui config servercmd resourcecmd The following scripts are important:- add/delete_codeso_resources add/delete_codesoapp_resources Bugs and Limitations -------------------- This is software and under development and is not yet of production quality. Still To Do's ------------- Changes ------- Files added:- Files deleted:- Files modified:- Placed into CVS Repository under release tag WHT-RELEASE-702 ============================================================ Release WHT-RELEASE-709 ======================= Upgraded IDL for compatibility with Python/C++ bindings. Note: this change has required fairly extensive (though straightforward) changes to the internal implementation of CODESO. The API to users of the framework remains substantially unchanged. Functionality ------------- Provides a basic working system. The following commands are available:- startserver shutdownserver startgui shutdowngui config servercmd resourcecmd The following scripts are important:- Bugs and Limitations -------------------- This is software and under development and is not yet of production quality. Still To Do's ------------- Changes ------- Files added:- Files deleted:- Files modified:- Placed into CVS Repository under release tag WHT-RELEASE-709 ============================================================ Release WHT-RELEASE-713 ======================= Updated action handler interface. Action handlers are now relieved of the responsibility of explicitly updating their associated action. This is now done automatically by the new ActionExecutor class. Functionality ------------- Provides a basic working system. The following commands are available:- startserver shutdownserver startgui shutdowngui config servercmd resourcecmd The following scripts are important:- Bugs and Limitations -------------------- This is software and under development and is not yet of production quality. Still To Do's ------------- Changes ------- Files added:- Files deleted:- Files modified:- Placed into CVS Repository under release tag WHT-RELEASE-713 ============================================================ Release WHT-RELEASE-718 ======================= This is the candidate release for the CODESO 2 "beta" release. IDL Changes ----------- Server: IdlServerStateCode enumeration - changes to constants. IdlServerListener interface changed name to IdlServerSubscriber for coonsistency with other subscriber interfaces. IdlStartupException and IdlShutdownException now contain support for CODESO-style error information. isOk operation now supports CODESO-style error information. added the following methods: restart, terminate standby server can not be passed arguments when starting up. CodesoErrorInterface.idl: Updated for CODESO2. Added new ERRFIX field providing concept of remedial action advice which may be associated with each error condition. StatusItem.idl: Minor formatting change. Action: ACTION_REQUESTED --> ACTION_PENDING added new validate method improved comments JAVA API Changes ---------------- Quite a lot of changes here, mainly to the JAVA API to improve the transparency of the interface, to limit the scope of what has been public, to improve the documentation etc Interface has been substantially changed to make use of getters. Thus, where previous one called descriptor() now one has to call getDescriptor(). What was previously value(), and descriptor() have now become getValue() and getDescriptor(). On the proxy side these can now throw the NotConnectedException. Alternative, unchecked forms of these functions exist. See getUncheckedDescriptor() and getUncheckedValue(). These return null if the proxy isn't connected. Client-side of actions, status items and servers has now been substantially simplified. StatusItem has been modified to make use of generic methods. This considerably eases the code maintenance. The interface to the user remains unchanged. Object lifecycles is now supported in the via new activate and shutdown methods and their observers (isActive, isShutdown). The concept of objects groups has been added. This allows one to perform bulk operations on collections of statusitems and actions, and their corresponding proxies. Logging is now controllable via setLoggingState function. Default for actions is to log all changes; default for status items is to log nothing. The functionality in the server package has been improved. It is now possible to remotely start and shutdown the server "body". The server shell remains running. Error interface has now been updated to reflect the current reality. Old errors that are no longer relevant have been discarded from the catalogue. Functionality ------------- Provides a basic working system. The following commands are available:- startserver shutdownserver startgui shutdowngui config servercmd resourcecmd The following scripts are important:- Bugs and Limitations -------------------- This software is still under development and is not yet of production quality. However, it is getting very close now. When compiled under versions of java earlier than 1.5 update 6 you may get a single unchecked cast warning. Unfortunately, this in unavoidable. Other known problems: No cacheing on statusitem proxy - potential performance enhancement Suspect startserver and startgui might not work - need to test. publisher quality-of-service statement needs updating. CStatus widget was modified some time ago to support image information. However, it was a bit of a crude hack and needs tidying up. ServerProxy and ActionProxy are not wrappers around an info field. This is inconsistent with the way its done for status items. Still To Do's ------------- Changes ------- Files added:- Files deleted:- Files modified:- Placed into CVS Repository under release tag WHT-RELEASE-718 ============================================================ Release WHT-RELEASE-720 ======================= This is the candidate release for the CODESO 2 "beta" release. setActive and setExceptional: bug fix. awaitActionCompletion now fixed. improve parameter argument validation. IDL Changes ----------- Server: Added errorCode and extraErrorInformation srtrings to IdlServerValue struct. StatusItemIdl: Improved commenting on STATUS_TYPE_UNCONSTRAINED.

The workaround is to set a system property but really this should be a property of the widgets themselves. The control widget adapter will only work with a single CODESO Action. This provides a restriction on the way that CODESO server applications are designed. Still To Do's ------------- Changes ------- Files added:- gui/iGuiControlPanel.java Defines the capabilities that must be implemented by any class which wishes to provide a control panel for the CODESO combined GUI. server/client/ServerProxyGroup.java Added for consistency with actions and statusitems and as required for GuiLauncher. widget/basic/CBasicErrorPopup.java A new popup error window prviding more information about the cause of error, together with a possible remedy.

Release date: 2006-12-28 Placed into CVS Repository under release tag WHT-RELEASE-723 ============================================================ Release WHT-RELEASE-743 ======================= Summary: a number of changes that became necessary/desirable when refactoring ING CODESO applications. See JAVA API changes (below) for more information. IDL Changes ----------- None JAVA API Changes ---------------- A number of small changes. Most notable is the removal of the getState method from xxxProxyInfo objects. This was a rather broken attempt at a convenience method. Instead you should use the getUncheckedValue method and query that instead. EPICS isActionSuccessful method was broken resulting in incorrect operation on some EPICS instrumentation. startgui previously did not work as it wasn't passing the -loadresource switch. added support for poll-on-demand status item connection policy. startserver now properly turns on syslogging.

This is intened to smooth the transition to the OmniNames Naming Services at ING (for a limited period we need to operate two naming services). See below for details of a few other minor improvements. IDL Changes ----------- None JAVA API Changes ---------------- Minor (backwards compatible) Java API changes Functionality ------------- Provides a basic working system.

The workaround is to set a system property but really this should be a property of the widgets themselves. The control widget adapter will only work with a single CODESO Action. This provides a restriction on the way that CODESO server applications are designed. Sometimes all channels don't connect. Seems to be some problem with initialisation common to all CODESO StatusItems and Actions. "Data Model not initialised problem seems to be common error". When exiting a ComboBox after editing a value there is a bug - the ComboBox text remains in white and editable. DBaccess is hardwired to whtics. config command no longer available/untested. CODESO needs howtobuild documentation in READTHIS file. Actionhandler javadoc. doesn't show all methods which are called. Quality of Service statement needs updating. Needs test validation suite. Need to check works with Java 6. The lifecycles of CODESO widgets are not currently controllable All CODESO widgets talk to the local CORBA Naming Service. Still being built with Sun IDL compiler which generates IDL which is NOT compatible with Python. StatusItemProxyGroup should allow adding proxies and associating them with a particular name. Should probably introduce snapshot() objects ServerCommandTool throws error when activating/shutting down some clients Might want to review all error message and proposed remedies. Still To Do's ------------- Changes ------- Files added:- lib/idldepend-1-1-0.jar Files deleted:- lib/idldepend-0-8-0.jar Files modified:- READTHIS - this file build.xml - added lib/idldepend-1-1-0.jar to IDLCheckerTask codeso.jpx.local - updated src/es/iac/ing/codeso/action/server/Action.java - added getActionHandler src/es/iac/ing/codeso/action/server/IdlActionImpl.java - added support for getActionHandler Now catches RuntimeException rather than Exception. src/es/iac/ing/codeso/gen/CorbaInterface.java - changed default port to 35778 src/es/iac/ing/codeso/gen/ResourceTool.java - tidied up command syntax src/es/iac/ing/codeso/gui/GuiLauncher.java - Now treats all resources as upper case. Improved control logic. src/es/iac/ing/codeso/server/server/ServerRunner.java - Now treats all resources as upper case.

Release date: 2007-01-28 Placed into CVS Repository under release tag WHT-RELEASE-761 ============================================================ *** The above was the last release committed before Simon Rees left ING *** Release WHT-RELEASE-809 ======================= This was an OSCAR release that was never put under CVS. Release WHT_RELEASE_845 ======================= Sergio Pico first CVS CODESO release. :-) Changed default Naming Service connection back to port 35777. Fixed synchronisation bugs within widget adapters which was causing some widgets not to connect. Changed default state of CORBA ORB cacheing so that for every Naming Service connection a single ORB instance is used. Sergio says this significantly improves connection times ("by a factor of 20").

Still To Do's ------------- Changes with respect to WHT-RELEASE-761 --------------------------------------- Files added:- .cvsignore - Change is presumed not significant: an artifact of the way the version was CVS'd. Files deleted:- None Files modified:- lib\syslogd-2.2\source\com\ice\XXX\XXX.java - CVS $Name: WHT_RELEASE_865 $ keyword was expanded. Change is presumed not significant: an artifact of the way the version was CVS'd (27 files changed in total) src\es\iac\ing\codeso\gen\CorbaInterface.java - Changed DEFAULT_CORBA_NAMING_SERVICE back to 35777. src\es\iac\ing\codeso\widget\adapter\ControlWidgetAdapter.java - Added synchronization blocks in both enable and disable commandwidget methods to resolve a concurrency problem, that made widgets not properly update. src\es\iac\ing\codeso\widget\adapter\StatusWidgetAdapter.java - synchronized updateWidget method to resolve a concurrency problem, that made widgets not properly update src\es\iac\ing\codeso\widget\composite\CLabelledStatusCombo.java - a few blank lines added (between the two releases a couple of CVS deltas were made in which a method 'makeItWork' was used in an attempt to solve the widget update problem. This change was backed out because a better solution was found by making synchronisation changes to StatusWidgetAdapter and ControLWidgetAdapter). src\scripts\startserver codeso845\src\scripts\startserver - added -DCODESO_GEN_CORBA_CACHE_ENABLE=true. It increases 20 times the the items connection speed. Release date: 2007-04-29 (approx - this is the date the OSCAR package was committed). Placed into CVS Repository under release tag WHT_RELEASE_845 (should really have been WHT-RELEASE-845 for consistency ============================================================ with ING CVS tagging convention) Release WHT_RELEASE_865 ======================= Minor change to Message configureSyslog method to strip spaces from identifier when sending messages to syslog. This change requested by Niko for compatibility with the new talker package. Everything else is same as previous release (WHT_RELEASE_845).

Change is presumed not significant: an artifact of the way the version was CVS'd (27 files changed in total) src\es\iac\ing\codeso\gen\Message.java - Modified configureSyslog method so that all spaces are stripped from the 'identifier' parameter. This change was requested by Niko for compatibility with the new talker system. This change potentially affects ServerRunner and GuiLauncher. In practice it only affects ServerRunner which will strip spaces from the string returned by the servers implementing getServerName() method (paret of the iServerBody interface).
