Labs This Week: • Monday • Demos • Wednesday • Assignment 2 • Resources for Eclipse • Demos
Reflections for Assignment 1 • Assertions don’t tell me anything • Justify your statements with examples, anecdotes • Talk intelligently, critically about your solution • Explain what your solution does, not what it is. • Saying it’s evolvable, or not bullet proof is not enough • You need to do the coding to understand the solution • Division of labor issues for larger teams • Too short is just as bad as too long • The best reflections were • Roughly 3 pages long • Had something interesting to say
Assignment 2 Overview It’s Assignment 2, but now it’s a plugin! • Plugin for Eclipse 3.2 • Version matters! • Java Language Spec 2nd edition • Roughly equivalent to the Java 1.4 SDK
Assignment 2: Use Case New Context Item: Concrete Declarations
Assignment 2: Use Case Need to insert a root entry for each method invocation This will be your list of associated method declarations

argument field access fighter bar Eclipse Architecture Same as Assignment 1 You’re responsible for doing the cross referencing
Assignment 2: Priorities • You must have a plugin working in Eclipse 3.2 • Get your Assignment 1 working in Eclipse • A text-based printout should be a good starting point • Good GUI implementation + non-functional back-end is not a good thing.
Before you panic • Eclipse is • Open Source • You can actually look under the hood if you want • Get the Dev Kit • Developed by IBM • And they’re pretty anal about documentation • Focused on Plugins • So there’s lots of plugins out there • Fairly popular • So there’s lots of tutorials and help out there
Some Resources • Eclipse • Plugin central http://www.eclipseplugincentral.com/ • Getting started with plugins http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-PDE-does-plugins/PDE-intro.html • AST’s in Eclipse • Plugin for Java AST’s in Eclipse http://www.eclipse.org/jdt/ui/astview/index.php
Some Resources • Strathcona http://lsmr.cs.ucalgary.ca/projects/heuristic/strathcona/ • Strathcona tries to recommend relevant code examples based on the your current context. Use at your own risk. • Installation http://lsmr.cpsc.ucalgary.ca/projects/heuristic/strathcona/installing • Usage http://lsmr.cpsc.ucalgary.ca/projects/heuristic/strathcona/using
Suggestions • You definitely want to have a plugin working by next Monday • Version your code via e-mail • You MAY need to backup entire change sets. • Play GMail against Hotmail • Use pair programming if you’re having problems keeping everyone involved
Labs Next Week: • Monday • Open • Wednesday • Open • Let me know what issues you’re still facing
