Yep, I moved house successfully, however it caused quite a bit of disrupution during the previous week.
Soc-wise, I’ve still been looking at code, Qt networking is pretty nice. Still have been looking at Justin’s code and thinking more about the design of the whole thing. I want to adapt his service browsing code to be [...]
My last post was complaining about QCA2, (wasn’t qmake’s fault!) that turned out to not be such a big problem after all. The linker (when compiling the tools) was looking for the qca library in the system directory, which of course contained QCA1. I solved it very ungracefully by writing over the system qca lib [...]
The headline says it all. I spent way too long last week trying to get QCA2 to compile, I still haven't found the error but I suspect it's a problem with my qmake (the Makefiles are not correct). I decided not to continue the torture into the weekend so instead did some reading on Bonjour [...]
So, just at the end of a bank holiday. I didn't get as much done as I'd have hoped but I needed to rest from just having finished exams!
Set up my linux box perfectly for development and got the psi sources and compiled it. Then tried playing around with eclipse to build it and after [...]
And no, I'm not going to continue numbering the days.
So I finally just got my tax form sent to Google, and all it required was running all around campus to use a printer in one lab and then to find a scanner in another. But it's all done with now.
I also went and collected my [...]
So I've just been looking around today and I discover this: http://www.porchdogsoft.com/products/howl/ -howl is dead.
So I need to reconsider and talk to my mentor about what to go with at this stage for the mDNS implementation. Avahi is not multiplatform and Bonjour is licensed under the "Apple Public Source LIcense", which I'm skeptical about but [...]
So I got accepted for Google summer of code!
It'll be nice working with all the Jabber guys; but first I need to finish my exams. Two down already, but four more to go!
I plan to hopefully take part in the Google summer of code. I want to work on implementing zeroconf networking and the link-local messaging protocol in the Psi Jabber client.
Update: Got it!
