Hi all, |

------------------project introduction-------------------------------- |
| 5 |
The project includes an improvement to current java-config and a new |
| 6 |
eclipse-plugin. The plug-in, which when clicked, lists system installed |
| 7 |
java libraries for users to select and import into projects. This avoids |
| 8 |
user manually browses and locates system installed libraries, making |
| 9 |
developing more efficient and comfortable. The existing tool |
| 10 |
java-config, with some necessary improvements, is chosen as the data |
| 11 |
retrieval backend of this project. Jython is used to integrate |
| 12 |
java-config to the plug-in.This project will mainly benefit developers |
| 13 |
using eclipse, and due to planned work on improvements to java-config, |
| 14 |
it will benefit java-config project and even non-developer gentoo users |
| 15 |
as well. |

----------------progress of this week -------------------------------- |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
1.modified the QueryEnv.java code to call api instead of directly |
| 21 |
executing the java-config-2-2.6 main script |
| 22 |
2.changed the query javadoc and javasource option of java-config-2 |
| 23 |
3.did much effort to try to modify the java-config-2 main script to a |
| 24 |
module for calling in Jython code, but meet the obstacle--distutils |
| 25 |
automatically add version number (-2.6 and -3.1) to generated script and |
| 26 |
a script that does not end with .py cannot be a module. Finally |
| 27 |
discussed a solution with my mentor Serkan--extract the necessary api to |
| 28 |
separate file src/java_config_2/java_config_2_api.py and this is done. |
| 29 |
4.Added class containing accompanying Java API that acts as wrappers, to |
| 30 |
access methods in java_config_2_api instead of directly calling them. |

------------Plans for next week ------------------------------------- |
| 35 |
Next week's plan is continuing plugin's UI development. Though I've |
| 36 |
started doing it this week, I put much effort on solving java-config-2 |
| 37 |
modularization issues. Developing plugin UI is not easy as I thought ,it |
| 38 |
can be considered another milestone and effort is planned for several |
| 39 |
weeks. I'll focus on it next week. |
