- Major Issues
- ------------
- Open/Pending
- ------------
- - read-expenses/install-expense doesn't return the string of Type
- for 'Train, Airplane', etc.
-
- - Check RPC code (something broken on large-endian machines?)
-
- - pilot-xfer -f fix (support '-f FooDB' as 'FooDB.p{db|rc|qa}
- - Split out "Sync" from Backup function
-
- - "strict-ify" pilot-sync-plan.pl
-
-
- Fixed/Closed
- ------------
- - Fix DLP to understand multiple return arguments.
-
-
- Minor Issues
- ------------
- Open/Pending
- ------------
- - Add current date/time to dlp_AddSyncLogEntry();
-
- - install-hinote duplicate note detection, export of notes from
- Hi-NoteDB.pdb into desktop text files. Can we easily handle
- images?
-
- - Add progress callbacks to libpisock so that you can find out how
- far a file transfer has gone (this is complex, as you also need to
- instrument PADP and perhaps SLP transmissions, receptions, and
- calculating exactly how many bytes is needed to transfer a file
- won't be fun.)
-
- knghtbrd: this is partly done now.
-
- - Update Java bindings to use Ant instead of {g|n}make
-
- - Rewrite Perl bindings to take advantage of MakeMaker
-
- - There's a small perl problem with writing the binary character 11
- to the end of a record. The following example illustates this:
-
- #!/usr/bin/perl -w
- use diagnostics;
- use PDA::Pilot;
- # it's the last value which makes the program fail;
- # and it fails only for the value 11!
- @rec = (0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,11);
- %info = ("type"=>"Data","creator"=>"XXXX","name"=>"test");
- $pdb = PDA::Pilot::File::create("test.pdb", \%info ) or die "Oops!\n";
- $rec = join('', map(chr, @rec));
- $pdb->addRecordRaw($rec,0,0,0);
-
-
- Tweaks/Enhancements
- -------------------
- - Add proper curses updates to pilot-xfer -b -f -i -s -p to look
- something like:
-
- .--------------------------------------------------------------.
- | File: /tmp/palm/Alpha-Lg.pdb Successful |
- | Size: 3,462 bytes, 3.38k 1,028,492 bytes total |
- | Progress: [==========================> ] 62% |
- | Overall: [=======================> ] 50% |
- | Time: 00:11:23 |
- | Files: 234 remaining, 468 total |
- `--------------------------------------------------------------'
-
- knghtbrd: suggest wget-style output? curses not required.
-
- - Start to condense the install-* binaries into one binary called
- pilot-install. getopt() is a prerequisite for this, so we can do
- 'pilot-install -memos -todos' for example. Too much duplicated
- code in there. Symlink the rest of the apps to pilot-install, and
- just test argv[0] to run the proper functions. Multi-call binary.
-
- - 'pilot-xfer -f Foo' to pull 'Foo.prc' from your Palm works.
- Additional option to pull by CrID would be nice as well (and
- faster, since we can use the DLP equivalent of
- DmOpenDatabaseByTypeCreator())
-
- - Add Tcl 8 specific code to allow retrieval of raw records, and
- optionally use Tcl routines for packing and unpacking; Add all dlp
- functions, clean up the channel code rats nest. Somehow. (Separate
- source file?)
-
- - Perl bindings: Change record representation from string to object
- to match Python implementation. Add packers. Document.
-
- - Collapse: read-todos/install-todos, memos/install-memos, etc.
-
-
- New Features
- ------------
- - pxd, first cut at a pilot-xfer'ized daemon
-
- - Standard output format for the "4 Magic Buttons". XML? csv?
- iCal/vCard?
-
- - Teach pilot-sync-plan.pl about the other repetition types that are
- convertable from Plan to Pilot.
-
- - pilot-xfer --daemon. Would be a good test to get it listening on a
- port in a non-scripted hacky way. All applications which return
- should have this functionality. Interactive applications should be
- left alone.
-
-
- Documentation Updates
- ---------------------
- - Reference IP_FORWARD=yes in /etc/sysconfig/sysctl for the ppp HOWTO
-
