Development has started

Over Christmas I used a few days to just sit on the implementation. What has been done till yet: Client:

• Main Window Prototype
• First Localisation system
• Settings Reader/Writer
• Icon Handler
• Basic Image Handler (Still needs methods to write images as jpeg or png)
• Connection Interfaces designed (very early alpha stage)
• Many Util classes developed (File Handler, User Container,...)

Server:

• First attempts to create TCP connection

I will continuew to work intensively for a few more days and then I will start prepairing for exams.

Next Step

So, I finally finished my interim report. No the next step is to start with some implementation work. I first want to start with the main protocol and then I will look further. For now I wish everyone a merry christmas!

Interim Report

Having serious problems with my Laptop last Weekend, I finally fixed it and am now able again to continue with my work. I requested a computer from DIT just in case my machine would brake down over Christmas. As this event interrupted my work I talked with my supervisor and we arranged a later submission-date for the interim report. Having done a decent amount of work for it, I will start with the implementation stage shortly.

Interim Report

Finally the Assignments are over and I can start with the interim report. Till now I mostly did some research in case of the protocol. I have a rough Idea of how to implement it now. The propably hardest part will be the implementation of file transfers, but I will see. This kind of stuff is being used regularly all over the web and should not be too complicated.
