10:31:13 <sunbiz> hey guys !!
10:31:20 <sunbiz> is everyone still at Boston ??
12:53:37 *** nribeka has joined #openmrs
13:34:47 <r0bby> sunbiz
13:35:02 <r0bby> did you by any chance write a controller for yourt patientdashboard portlet?
13:35:29 <r0bby> I had to override the controller entirely now module portlet isn't picked up
13:40:09 <sunbiz> nope...
13:40:14 <sunbiz> just with my module...
13:42:40 <r0bby> fuck
13:42:50 <r0bby> I had to override it
13:42:57 <r0bby> :X
13:45:52 <sunbiz> I dint do anything to the patientdashboard portlet
13:46:07 <sunbiz> I created my own patient summary
13:46:24 <sunbiz> and linked to the existing patientdashboard
13:46:34 <sunbiz> what did u override ??
14:02:36 <nribeka> r0bby + sunbiz: any thought on swt?
14:03:03 <sunbiz> SWT was good... swing is better these days
14:03:13 <sunbiz> nribeka: why SWT ?
14:03:45 <nribeka> just asking. i have a friend who said that swing i terribly slow and swt is faster
14:04:21 <sunbiz> JDK6 has awesome performance improvements for Swing and with JDK6_u10 it looks pretty native
14:04:50 <nribeka> that's what i said to him
14:05:07 <nribeka> swing is improving
14:05:11 <sunbiz> nribeka: that was the old swing... On the HotSpot VM, swing is very fast
14:05:20 <sunbiz> nribeka: swing has improved
14:05:54 <nribeka> he didnt't listen to me
14:06:12 <sunbiz> write him a benchmark
14:06:33 <nribeka> he keep on using swt and now he's lost in his swt (lack docs he said)
14:06:47 <nribeka> how benchmark sunbiz?
14:07:03 <sunbiz> show him a POC... ask him to build a widget and u build a same swing pane
14:07:14 <sunbiz> and then do a loop refresh
14:07:32 <sunbiz> check the CPU/memory profile on the apps
14:08:05 <sunbiz> U can look into the new VisualVM tool for a nice graphical benchmark
14:08:16 <sunbiz> I mean nice graphical report
14:08:30 <sunbiz> or use the netbeans profiler
14:09:40 <sunbiz> if u have jdk6 or jdk6_u10 or jdk7... Swing is going to kick ass !!
14:12:13 <nribeka> i will check visualVM
14:12:21 <nribeka> thanks sunbiz :D
14:14:17 <sunbiz> nribeka: actually this has been discussed to death over the last few years...
14:14:29 <sunbiz> nribeka: howz ur proj finished ??
14:14:37 <sunbiz> r0bby: and howz ur proj ??
14:15:36 <nribeka> i'm not done yet. still working on it right now. sunbiz u?
14:16:43 <sunbiz> finished... whatever was the basic target... but u can always improve
14:17:27 <r0bby> nribeka: I like swing if i have to do UI work
14:17:34 <sunbiz> the offline support is a little complex to implement... but I'll have my module on the module repository as a point release
14:17:58 <sunbiz> but I havent yet figured out ... how to put my module up there !!
14:18:14 <r0bby> my module was incomplete as of Aug 18
14:18:34 <r0bby> we can't submit code written prior to Aug 18
14:18:41 <nribeka> r0bby: i like swing better too. but my friend is trying to be a pain in the ... neck
14:18:43 <r0bby> er after rather
14:18:50 <r0bby> we can't submit code written AFTER Aug 18
14:19:00 <sunbiz> yes
14:19:13 <nribeka> who will review the code that we will submit to google?
14:19:52 <sunbiz> nribeka: Eclipse and IBM are the real fore-runners for SWT... and Sun is for Swing
14:20:39 <r0bby> prolly a google engineer
14:20:41 <sunbiz> basically... use whatever suits u... I dont believe in an idea that something is "good enough" for every1
14:21:26 <sunbiz> r0bby: I really doubt if any1 will look through all the 1100 submitted code ;)
14:21:41 <sunbiz> oops... that number got reduced by 200 I think ??
14:21:55 <sunbiz> after the mid-term evaluations...right ??
14:22:57 <nribeka> yeah, i guess so sunbiz. my friend maybe like swt :P
14:24:21 <sunbiz> r0bby: did u hear anything from the test-a-thon ??
14:24:36 <r0bby> sunbiz -- it's gonna get even smaller
14:24:55 <sunbiz> I couldnt find many tests that were committed to the repo ??
14:25:01 <sunbiz> *SVN
14:25:59 <sunbiz> mayb the internet connection there sucked or something... This is where I think distributed SCM like hg rocks !!
14:28:20 <r0bby> or monotone :)
14:28:41 <r0bby> I gotta get to learning that
14:45:35 <sunbiz> ok..guys... cya !!
14:46:56 *** sunbiz has left #openmrs
14:48:49 <r0bby> wtf

21:16:48 <Keelhaul> hai
21:16:58 <Keelhaul> is the repository not working?
21:17:18 <Keelhaul> hmm works in web
21:17:28 <Keelhaul> trunk update wont proceed though
22:09:30 <bwolfe> works for me
22:09:39 <bwolfe> make sure the svn port is open
22:09:45 <bwolfe> (not sure which port that is though)
22:09:55 *** bwolfe has quit IRC
22:09:56 <Keelhaul> it started working after a while
