Re: Fortnight report (week 5-6)
Hi Marnie and Aidan,
- After finishing implementation to support all the MBeans which are
already instruemented in the broker with list command I tried to expose some
more objects which are not already registered.While I'm trying to do that I
realized that I should go through the qpid code and started on reading qpid
java broker source code.Tried to import Qpid Java broker on to Intellij Idea
because I wanted to debug the broker, with the help from the mailing list I
was able run the broker successfully on Intellij Idea and I bloged about
that in my blog<http://lahirumanaya.blogspot.com/2008/06/import-apache-qpid-in-to-intellij-idea.html>.I
was informed that there's not much usefulness of monitoring Publisher and
Subscriber by Martin and Aidan so I start on concentrating on Connection
Object.(y Somehow I will try instrument those two objects too )
- I was able to add the Connection object type to monitor using list
command. Martin helped me to figure this out since although that was
instrument on the broker it was not displayed in Jconsole. I have tested the
list command implementation for Connection object by running some samples
and it works fine.
- With the instruction from Aidan I started on writing Test cases to all
the possible methods in the current code.I have finish writing test cases
for almost all the methods.(Aidan please have a look in to my test cases)
- Change the build of the project in to more easier way.Now user doesn't
need to set classpath or anything other than QPID_CLI environment
variable.Added another target to ant script to build test.(Still working on
running test cases using Ant at the moment Test cases can be run using an
IDE)
- As Aidan asked about releasing the CLI I have added another ant target
in order to create a jar for the project and now working releasing the
CLI.Following thing have to be done before releasing the CLI.
- Implement --help option for list command.
- Add some more details about the product in to README file.
Please inform me what else to do before releasing the CLI.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Lahiru

No, I don't think you need to do that for 0.1, I was just using it as
an example. Sorry for the confusion!
The helps are the important one, once those are done I'd get it out ASAP :)

I'm sorry.I haven't implement info command. I'm suspicious on how user
specify particular object with info command. Do you want me to implement
this before releasing 0.1 or not.I will start implementing help command and
--help option for list command.

Sadly not, because we currently export our wiki as our website, we
can't give write access to it to non-committers. Probably easiest if
you put the page on your google code project for now.
It would be good to get a 'help' command implemented so you can see
what commands are available, something like:
qpid-cli$ help
list - list all objects of a specific type
info - provide information on a specific object
help - print the list
run <command> -- help for more information on each command
qpid-cli$
other than that, I think you're good to go for 0.1! :)

Thanks Marnie for the reply :-)
That's cool. But do I have wiki access in Apache Qpid wiki.

Hi Lahiru,
Thanks for your status update, very useful.
Your progress is very encouraging, and I'm pleased to see that you have been
getting on well working with Aidan & Martin. You've overcome some obstacles,
and great to see such persistence !
I think a useful next step would be a wiki page which says - here's how to
run the CLI (including a how-to-build/install) which coul dbe used by the
Qpid dev community to look at it (ultimately) and we three mentors could try
out ? What do you think ?
Kind Regards,
Marnie
