Hello everyone in the development team! My name is Yip and I am new to this project. I am a first/second year computing science studnet at sfu, and I wanted to do some volunteering jobs to sharpen up my programming skills. I have done some programming in Java. I wanted to get more experience on software development process so that it would help me to find a job easier later on. My friend introduced me to this project to me and I think it's what i have been looking for. I am looking forward to to working with all of you. Bye now. |

Good point about having an interface to implement.
However, stuff like buttonsAt[whatever]() may have restrictions, like
must be called before any buttons have been added, or must be called
while the window is not visible, otherwise it might not display/work
unless I specifically add code to fix threading issues.
I wasn't quite finished the code, I hadn't finished testing it, so it
still had some bugs in it.
I don't know what you added to know what to keep, so I might just
overwrite something you had in there.
So if you find I removed something, I probably didn't notice it.
Also, what do you think about having a small icon for the "default" buttons?
I'm thinking they're not such a good idea because they indicate that
they're "pre-built," and not just included with the programs.
In other words, because these buttons have icons, all the buttons that
your programs add need icons so they don't look out of place.

Alex, looking at your code I was confused by your use of the world "real" --- I thought it meant real numbers. :-) Someone correct me if I'm wrong (I don't know much about graphics), but "user space" and "device space" are the terms more commonly used to refer to the different types of coordinate systems. TheMatrix currently uses the device space coordinates (top left is (0, 0), y increases downwards) for the user space. TheMatrixOrigin uses Cartesian coordinates as the user space. So I think terminology should be used in the variable and method names. Also, I wonder if there is perhaps a simple trick for getting this to work? In TheMatrix.paint, g2.translate and g2.scale are used. Could those (or similar) methods be used to set the origin properly?

Alex, I've moved your package from demo to developer. It seems to be a better way to organize things. I'll look at your code a little later.

Hi all, Didn't bother touching the mouse code since I found that out.=20 However, I "updated" TheMatrixOrigin with a constructor TheMatrixOrigin(int width, int height) which just calls super(width, height) so my demo works properly. I should really add the other ones. :/I also wrote LameLineGrapher (found in my demo folder - it is fairly lame) as a demo of TheMatrixOrigin and how to use it. It is fairly straight forward, just that code needs to be written to check that you're not making anything go out of bounds. -Alex On 4/26/05, Toby Donaldson <tj...@sf...> wrote: > Alex, >=20 > I don't know if the mouse code in TheMatrix has been kept up ...

Daryl, when I run TheButtonMatrixTest, I don't see any other windows or
buttons, just the picture.
I think the calling code is still a little too complex. I think it would be
better if --- for the generic save/load/save buttons --- it worked like
this:
TheButtonMatrix bm = new TheButtonMatrix("something.jpg");
bm.enableSaveButton();
bm.enableLoadButton();
bm.enableCloseButton();
I've added an interface called GenericButtons to your developer package.
Have TheButtonMatrix implement it.

Hi, all. I've updated TheButtonMatrix extension in csimage.developers.dvanhumb to use a separate window for the buttons, showing it only when there are buttons to display. You should be able to see it if you wait a couple hours (maybe until 1pm today, but I'm not sure). I just know that commits don't appear right after you commit them. Anyway, comments and feedback accepted. Daryl. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus. Version: 7.0.308 / Virus Database: 266.11.0 - Release Date: 29/04/05 |

Actually, I was thinking of doing both. TheButtonMatrix isn't very done yet (I want to work with it at *least* a little longer, if not until it's done), so I can't leave it hanging. Maybe not a very good idea, but I'll find that out later. Daryl. Toby Donaldson wrote: >Good. What do you want to do about the TheButtonMatrix code you are working >on?

Hi all, Would anyone like to spearhead an effort to create some Jabber classes to support the creation of Java chatbots? Jabber is an open source instant-messaging system, and in the past I've used Jabber as a project in a first-year programming course. We used the Smack library (http://www.jivesoftware.org/downloads.jsp), but only for human-human messaging. A Jabber chatbot is a program that other humans (or chatbots) can talk to. What would be useful is an easy to use framework that lets people create and run their own chatbots. Any takers? Toby |

This is great Jeannie ... a tutorial and better documentation has been = one of the most requested features of the csjava package so far. A tutorial showing the use of TheMatrix and EasyInput. To see usage examples, check out some of the files in the demo package. TheMatrix is essentially a combination of a BufferedImage and a JFrame.=20 You should discuss the basic, most frequently used methods.

I would think = HTML is best because then the documentation (or parts of it) could be easily inserted into the source code as JavaDoc comments. But at this point any readable format is fine.

Jeannie, is there any specific thing you'd like to do for the csjava project? Documentation (especially tutorials for beginners) and creating unit test for TheMatrix and other frequently used classes would be very useful. For the mobile game project you've mentioned, feel free to use anything from the csjava code if it helps there ... Or vice-versa, if there is something you do for that project that you want to donate to this one (although keep in mind that this project is open source).

Dear All, Hello, I am Jeannie, a new comer to the csjava project development team. Let me do a brief introduction of myself. I am currently a third year student in SFU, double major in Computing Science and Statistics. I have just completed CMPT 275 last semester with a decent grade. I am mostly interested in coding and programming, but I would love to work with different aspects on the software development process (such as documenting or testing) to enhance my skills and experience in software development field. I also have experience with graphics things (I can work with GUI in JAVA and experience in photoshop) as I am currently a graphics director in a student club (Simon Fraser Chinese Link). Currently, I am working on a java mobile game contest with a team of four people. I think that's about it for my computing knowledge and background. Nice to meet you all!

Alex, I don't know if the mouse code in TheMatrix has been kept up ... It might do nothing! The simplest thing is to ignore it or delete it for now. By the way, can you post some sample code using TheMatrixOrigin for some basic task so that others can see how it is meant to be used. Toby ---Alex's message copied from csjava developers forum New concerns as my afternoon without World of Warcraft continues: Since all the mouse functions are done using internal coordinates in the parent class, I opted to convert them to "fake" coordinates for now. However there is something that confuses me: Currently in mouseClicked, there is a line: <b> _currentPoint = null;</b> But this is really weird to me, since _currentPoint is only declared in TheMatrix, and it's only actually used in mouseClicked and mouseDragged. However, in mouseClicked I don't think it does anything with _currentPoint but sets it to null at the end. What exactly is this supposed to be doing? |

I just created a package named "developer" and moved Alex and Daryl's code there. It's more organized than using demo packages. Toby |

I would have thought that using a panel would be less drastic. Put the original BufferedImage in one panel region, and the buttons in another region. But I haven't looked into it carefully, so I you am not certain what all the issues are. I remember in the past I tried using a Jlabel or something like that for showing the images, but that was a mistake because BufferedImage is the best and most flexible way to deal with images in Java. The labels had some weird side-effects for small images, if I recall, and they weren't very efficient for image processing.

csjava Project FAQ (version 3) What is the csjava project? The csjava project is an open source software project aimed at developing fun and instructive software for Java and CS courses. It includes (but is not limited to) the design, implementation, testing, and documentation of programs related to: - image processing - multimedia programs (e.g. MP3/MPEG players) - speech generation - 2D animation - language and string processing code - helper code for beginning and intermediate (and beyond) CS courses - a MACM package (i.e. code useful for people taking MACM 101/201) - a parallel processing package - code for creating chat-bots that run on Jabber servers - demo/example code showing off fun/interesting/important aspects of CS - anything else related to CS and Java that a csjava developer wants to contribute! In a few weeks, we may also be be looking for help setting up some a parallel Knoppix system in the Surrey labs, and possibly even creating an SFU-specific distribution of Linux for education (e.g. based on Knoppix). We'll post to the mailing list when we know more. What is the current state of development? We've already created (and used in CMPT 125 and 225) some of the image processing code, namely TheMatrix. You can download the current release of the csjava.jar file here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/csjava/ (the current release is named "stimpy"). As you can see, there is not yet any documentation for how to use this. Any volunteers willing to write an introductory tutorial? :-) If I join, how much work is involved? Since this is a volunteer project, you can do as much or as little as you like. It's up to you. You can join and just watch and explore for a while to see if there's anything that interests you. Or you could volunteer to be the lead for one of the above sub-projects, which will require a little more commitment. But imagine the glory! :-) The most useful and interesting code will be included in future releases of the csjava project. If you are inactive on the project for a long time, you will probably be dropped from it. I'm not a Java expert. Can I still help? Definitely! Helping out on this project is a great way to learn Java, or refresh your memory of it. Or, if you prefer, you can work more on the documentation aspects of the project (currently the project is sorely lacking good documentation, and help on this would be extremely useful to many people). What if I have an idea for something else that I want to do for this project? Great! We welcome new ideas, especially if they are based on code that's already in the csjava package. Suggest your idea to the group mailing list, and see what people say. Or when its done, send a request for people to try out your code --- but keep in mind that most people will probably only want to try out code that is fun/interesting or does something useful for them. Getting other people to use (and improve) your code is strongly encouraged. How do I join? The first thing to do is to subscribe to the csjava-developers mailing list: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/csjava-developer This is the place to ask questions, get help, propose new ideas, discuss design choices, announce new code for the project, etc. The project itself is on SourceForge, a website that hosts open source projects: https://sourceforge.net/projects/csjava/ How do I get started? To become an official developer listed on the project page, you must join SourceForge to get a username. This is free and easy. Once you've got your username, email it to me (tj...@sf...) and you will be added as a developer. The next step is to learn how to download code from the CVS tree. This has a bit of a learning curve, but it is very useful and learning how to use CVS now is good experience for future projects you may work on that use version control. What is the CVS tree? CVS is a popular version control system that keeps track of all the revisions to files in a project. All the csjava source code is stored in a CVS tree on SourceForge, and your first task is to get a CVS client up and running so that you can access the tree. If you want to browse the files in the tree, look at the csjava folder here: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/csjava What's a CVS client? Which one should I use? A CVS client is a program that runs on your computer, and it talks to the main CVS tree. You use the client to download code from the tree, and upload changes. Eclipse has an excellent built-in CVS client, and you are strongly encouraged to use that one. It is quite easy to use compared to many other CVS clients. You are not required to use Eclipse; you can use and IDE or CVS client you like. How do I set up the Eclipse CVS client? You must follow these steps carefully! CVS is notoriously finicky, and a single wrong character can result in bizarre and cryptic behaviour. But once you get it working, it's pretty good. - First, you must be part of the csjava project, i.e. your name must be on the developers list of the project (check https://sourceforge.net/projects/csjava/). If your name isn't there, then get a SourceForge name and get send it to one of the project administrators so you can be added to the project. - Second, run Eclipse and open the Window menu, then Show View, and then choose Other. Open the CVS folder, and select "CVS Repositories". - Third, add the csjava repository by clicking the icon for Add CVS Repository, and then fill in the form that pops up with the following information: Connection type: extssh User: your SourceForge user name Password: your SourceForge password Host: cvs.sourceforge.net Repository path: /cvsroot/csjava Select both "Use Default Port" and "use the repository identification string as the label". Double-check that you've entered everything correctly. - Fourth, if the previous step went well, you can now check out the CVS tree, or parts of it. Lets check out a copy of the csimage folder in the HEAD branch. First create a new Java project in Eclipse. Just create it, and don't add any files. Then in that project choose "import", and choose "Checkout Projects from CVS". The wizard will step you through checking out the project. I tried the previous steps, and it doesn't work. Help! As mentioned, CVS is tricky to set up at first. But it does work, and Eclipse makes using CVS about as easy is possible. The first thing you should do is check that you've typed all the CVS repository information correctly. A single mis-typed character will cause problems. Some errors may be due to temporary problems, such as a network delay. Thus, starting all over from the beginning is sometimes helpful. If you're stuck, email the csjava-developers list and ask for help. Be as specific as possible about why its not working. Give specific details, and error messages (if any!). What is updating? What is committing? In CVS terms, "updating" means updating your personal copy of the CVS tree. Committing is when you upload your changed version of a file to the CVS tree. Update frequently, and commit only when you have finished, tested changes. What rules should I follow when I start out using CVS? It takes some time to get familiar and comfortable with CVS, so when you first start out please don't modify any of the files in the HEAD branch. Make your package in the "developers" package, and practice there for a while until you get the hang of it. Who can commit what files? Anyone can modify any files. But please, don't modify files outside of your developer package without discussing your changes with others. This is especially important for code used by lots of other programs --- even small changes could break lots of code. When in doubt, please ask! Okay, I've the CVS stuff working. Now what? Now improve the csjava package! Pick one of the features mentioned in the list above, and start to work on it. You should email the csjava-developers list before you start just in case someone else is also working on the project. If you are not sure about what to work on, then email the list or one of the project administrators to get a particular task to work on. You say the project is "open source". What does that mean? All the csjava source code is freely available to anyone to use or modify as they wish. The development is done on SourceForge, which is a hosting site for open source projects. Even code that does not end up in the main release will be made publicly available. Finally, this is a shared project that depends upon the care and good will of the developers. Many people depend on the code in this project, so strive to be helpful, cooperative, and considerate. And have fun! |
