Re: [boinc_dev] [boinc_alpha] Linux issues with BOINC 7.4.36?
Thank You Nicolas Alvarez for summing up the tracking numbers! This is Great. We will need to re-test all after I finish the Grand-redesign of the tasks tab and , because the code will be *brand new* (and a *clean code*),all the known bugs will *maybe* disappear... and we will need to re-test them all to confirm that :-) *But* some *completely new bugs* will probably appear instead...but they will be *extremely easily to fix* as soon as they will be found (so we will need some really EXTENSIVE testing of the task tab), fixed either by me or by any experienced BOINC-Manager developer , like for example David, Rom, and others... :-) I will document the new code perfectly, the internal API designed with Apiary and API Blueprint will come with FULL documentation and will be extremely simple , *something* *like 10 times simplier than pure wxWidgets code only*. :-)hopefully. Well, wish me luck and patience, I will definitely need it... *API Blueprint* and Apiary will be still *new tools* to me, so no really fast work with this tool will probably somehow magically happen. :) Thanx. A complete list of tracking tickets for Tasks tab (or added KEYWORDs to those still hidden = mistakenly *not* associated with Tasks-tab ... for the search engine of the bug-tracking system to find them all) will be greatly appreciated :-) One ring to find them all... - hehehe! OK, we need the *One keyword* to find them all ;) Filip 2015-01-08 2:06 GMT+01:00 Nicolás Alvarez nicolas.alva...@gmail.com: 2015-01-07 16:24 GMT-03:00 Nicolás Alvarez nicolas.alva...@gmail.com: 2015-01-07 1:04 GMT-03:00 Charlie Fenton charl...@ssl.berkeley.edu: Also, we want to try to get a Linux release out with the latest BOINC code. Could people give us a comprehensive list of the bugs in Linux? Please separate out the issues when static linked with wxWidgets 3.0.2 from those when static linked with wxWidgets 3.0.0. I have BOINC 7.4.23 from Debian packages dynamically linked to wxWidgets 3.0.2. I don't know if either has Debian-specific patches. - Some rows don't update. I have 10 tasks, the top 4 ones are running, and the top 3 update their progress bar. The 4th only updates when I select a row (any row) or when I focus or unfocus the window, both of which presumably cause a window repaint. I have seen similar things happen in the Projects tab. Charlie mentioned this is already fixed. I haven't tested the fix yet. - I use focus follows mouse. Moving the mouse over a window makes it get the focus, without bringing it to the foreground. BOINC Manager is the only application that jumps to the foreground when I give it focus that way; it's really annoying. https://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/ticket/1376 - Clicking the Close button on the titlebar minimizes the window. Not to the tray, but to the normal task bar. In other words it does exactly the same as the Minimize button, making it pretty useless. https://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/ticket/1377 - When I press the right mouse button on the tray icon, the menu appears, but it disappears as soon as I release the right mouse button. I have to hold the mouse button while moving it and release it over the wanted menu item. https://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/ticket/993 which I reported five years ago. Maybe it's time I research it myself :) -- Nicolás ___ boinc_dev mailing list boinc_dev@ssl.berkeley.edu http://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address. ___ boinc_dev mailing list boinc_dev@ssl.berkeley.edu http://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
Re: [boinc_dev] Official GitHub mirror?

See: https://github.com/ChristianBeer/boinc-v2/tree/travis-ci-test there is also a nice picture at the bottom of the page build information: https://travis-ci.org/ChristianBeer/boinc-v2 The current config just builds the components (libraries, server, client+manager) and fails if the compiler reports an error.

A possible roadmap for this could be: - split up client and manager - add a simple syntax test for php code - add some more elaborate tests (it should even be possible to create a project inside the VM) - add a windows build test (this seems not to be trivial and a build node should be provided for this) travis-ci is free for open source projects and uses ubuntu based VMs as build nodes by default (community supported).
