I just took a look through the 0.6 code (still have to look at the NetBeans
editor component). I see that the XPipe XComponents element no longer has a
ScheduleType which was the bit that I was waiting on the code for to
complete my understanding. So with that missing, I guess I fully understand
XPipes now.
Apart from what's in the development plan, there seem to be a number of
things left to take care of in the existing components:
- Parameter passing.
- Testing of pre- and post-conditions.
- Generalizing unit testing so that it extends to XPipes.
Is there a plan for these? I know that my Java implementations don't
currently fit the 'unpack an XComponent' model. If it's desired to have
these implemented in Java, I could presumably rework a version in Java that
acts on unpacked components (although it's my personal preference to try and
avoid unpacking) and add some of the items mentioned above. I could also
give a shot in Jython, although I'm pretty inexperienced there. I can also
wait, if these are already in the works.
