Diary:

2008-10-23
- Starting setting up the project skeleton
- Got a window rendering, including menus and status bars
- Large grid now renders, will be used for showing serial communications
- Basic interface for sending/requesting data

2008-10-24
- Read through the serial docs

Screenshot:

Next task is to get it to send basic (e.g. interface/version) requests and display both the request and acknowledgment packets in the grid.

It has python bindings and can be embedded and interacted with from what I have read/seen. Here it is running from python on my machine:




If I can't embed it into wxPython, an alternative is Matplotlib

Well, progress has stopped as I have joined the club of broken laptops. Had the same problem with it before tho so should have it fixed pretty quick.

- Most of the FreeEMS protocol library is complete - pretty much all the code is there to send interface/firmware version requests
- The UI is now loading its layout from a customisable file (see http://www.diyefi.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=474)

Next is to set up the serial / debugging modules - I have set up a "comms" interface that can be either for debugging, serial, or the java messaging service. Just need to fill in the logic now.

Config and data files are now implemented.

Logging to terminal, and file now works!!

Oh, and serial is go!

Pluggable comms backends are implemented. Built the serial plugin including error handling, and have been testing it on a virtual serial port.

Implemented the watcher pattern for comms, which lets the gui elements monitor packets.

Built up the interface utility packet classes, have a few more bits to implement - but not far now!

Could have had a working example running, but have been thinking of the future as I go and making it extensible as possible

Preparing the code for release after Fred tests!!!

Gui now updates showing sent packets (does not recieve packets yet)

Hardware Reset button in gui

All interface utility packets implemented!
