Absentee(s): No plausable reason, despite being on campus. |

The way in which CORBA will be sending information around |
| 12 |
< |
the server system was discussed. |
| 13 |
< |
|
| 14 |
< |
The filters will parse incoming XML sent via UDP and create |
| 15 |
< |
an XMLPacket object. These objects are used to convey each |
| 16 |
< |
host's information around the CORBA system. The object will |
| 17 |
< |
provide accessors to an array of parameter name/value pairs. |

ajm4 noted how drunk he had been over the weekend and |
| 20 |
< |
was surprised to find a lady in his bed when he got home. |
| 21 |
< |
|
| 22 |
< |
Strategies for configuration distribution were discussed. |
| 23 |
< |
The Logger class from last year's project is expected to |
| 24 |
< |
make a reappearance in this current project. The main |
| 25 |
< |
core of the server will have work put into it this week. |
| 26 |
< |
|
| 27 |
< |
For the timebeing, we shall only be sending XML data that |
| 28 |
< |
*does not* contain nested values. |
| 29 |
< |
|
| 30 |
< |
|
| 31 |
< |
Things that must be done before next Monday: - |
| 32 |
< |
(oh yes, we're starting to implement bits...) |
| 33 |
< |
|
| 34 |
< |
ab11: - |
| 35 |
< |
In this person's absence, it was decided that they may write |
| 36 |
< |
the test host application (in Java). This program shall |
| 37 |
< |
connect to a specified server and send arbitrary non-nested |
| 38 |
< |
XML data via UDP. |
| 39 |
< |
(As per the first XML example at minutes/minutes-20001101.txt) |
| 40 |
< |
|
| 41 |
< |
ajm4 and tdb1: - |
| 42 |
< |
Define a method of configuration distribution and produce |
| 43 |
< |
the core configurator. Adapt last year's Logger class as |
| 44 |
< |
appropriate. |
| 45 |
< |
|
| 46 |
< |
pjm2: - |
| 47 |
< |
Create the server's Filter class. This will accept incoming |
| 48 |
< |
UDP connections and parse the XML data received. Create a |
| 49 |
< |
separate XMLPacketMaker class to be used by Filter - this |
| 50 |
< |
will be used to create the XMLPacket object for each incoming |
| 51 |
< |
connection, providing a way of passing information about the |
| 52 |
< |
CORBA system. Complete as much of this as possible before |
| 53 |
< |
next Monday. |

also be ncessary to write the CORE module of the server on |
