# Done:
* Library is supporting rosella(winxed), rosella(nqp) and perl5 test system languages
# Doing:
* done api more and more smart(clean old zip project)
sa1 Util: ping 19:31
denis_boyun: hello 19:32
denis_boyun sa1: hi
Util Hello! Who all is in attenance?
sa1 Hello, Util
Util has apparently had a alarm failure 19:33
Done: Helped denis_boyun with rosella. Problem resolved! 19:34
denis_boyun Util: hi'
Util .end
Hello, denis_boyun
Looks like good progress from everyone. Do you all feel that you have made up the lag from earlier in your projects? 19:35
In other words, are you on schedule now?
sa1 I'm sorry for the lack of posts. I've had 2 intern interviews from visiting campus companies this week, and had a couple of crypto assignments too. 19:36
I'm not on schedule, no. But its a git api you can work with. 19:37
Util I was just about to type: "We are missing last week's reports on Parrot.org from pmurias and sa1."
sa1 There are a lot of things that are missing, but I guess the the last couple of weeks should be used to polish, make things usable, and keep adding tests. 19:38
denis_boyun Util: Library template has almost done and i'm working on hll template again 19:39
Util FYI: This is something you will find in the commercial world; progress reports are even *more* important when progress has stalled. Annoying, but true.
denis_boyun: sounds good
denis_boyun Util: Yes, I have questions when you are take me some advice i can continue my work 19:40
sa1 Util: I'm looking at the plumbing commands that can be done using whats working. 19:41
denis_boyun Util: i've sent email with question about perl 5 build system languages and hll tests
sa1 ls-tree was a simple enumeration of objects
Util sa1: In general, I agree that what you have working should be polished so that it is usable by others, rather than adding more features. However, you should verify with dukeleto.
sa1 True. 19:42
Util denis_boyun: Do you mean your email from August 29th?
denis_boyun Util: yes 19:44
Util: How to test a hll-project?
Util denis_boyun: To test your HLL, I see two different approaches: 19:46
1. Use a harness program (written in winxed, or Perl 5) to execute `hll.exe test_script_1.abc`, and capture its output, and compare it to the expected output. You would use Winxed's (or Perl 5's) Test libraries for this.
2. Have your code write a harness library in the new language, and also provide skeleton test scripts in the new language that will use the harness library. 19:47
I do not know if #2 is too ambitious, since you do not know everything about the generated language until generation-time. 19:48
Also, #1 is more in line with what you are already doing with library testing. 19:49
denis_boyun Util: yes, #1 like me more than #2 19:50
Util: ok i undestand
Util sa1: a perfectly working, well-documented ls-tree will be a great outcome, in my opinion. 19:51
sa1 The index example was more my aim. ls-tree is a small thing really.
Util denis_boyun: In your email, you asked dukeleto about whether building the module to provide build utilities was needed or not. I have no new thoughts on that, so I will leave it to dukeleto to give you his answer. 19:52
sa1: Do you think you can complete the index example in the timeframe of the project? 19:53
sa1 I won't consider it successful unless I do that, since I've been working towards it. 19:54
I would say yes to that end.
Util sa1: Even better. Let me (and dukeleto) know what help you need.
Any other blockers, from either of you? 19:55
denis_boyun Util: no 19:56
sa1 No blockers.
Util Anything else to discuss?
sa1 No
denis_boyun no 19:57
Util GSoC students: Remember to post to Parrot.org and parrot-dev. pmurias: This means you too!
Thank you all for participating!
Meeting adjourned.
