I got the basics nailed down considering OpenGL in Java so I will start making some prototypes of the Magnetic Transports game.
The class diagram looks much like it did before with some improvements, nothing big though. The current class diagram will be stored in the project's menu under "Images". The Images section is a new project section module that I have made for the projects as I want somewhere to quickly show how the projects...
The meenu has now been replaced. The thing I didn't like about the old menu was that it was absolutely positioned on the page, it caused a fair bit of problems when the page, for one reason or another, would be offset as the menu would not follow the page. The absolute positioning was done because it allowed me to place the menu code last (making it load last), but I really don't think it makes much of a difference if the menu loads before the body...
I have added the possibility for users to comment news entries. So people may now, if they wish, comment a news entry by clicking the link at the bottom of the entry. This is mostly to compensate for the loss of the forums, so there's still an alternative to e-mail.
I also attempted to change the menu so that it appears differently in the code (but about the same to the user). Though it was only partially successful, so the projects will lack...
I couldn't resist improving MPLF (now version 1.1.1) and JUpdater (now version 0.3.1) a bit, so I did. The changes are not crucial, but they do improve the experience with the programs.
MPLF's parsing has been vastly improved. It still works like before but it's now a lot faster, it doesn't lock the main thread and it now shows the result as it's filtering. This is especially good for large logs (>5MB) as it's not fun waiting 10ish seconds...
Version 1.1 of the Multipurpose Log Filter is now complete and available from both the download page and from the version updater inside the program.
The major change is the inclusion of the online filter archive into the program. One can now directly access the archive from within the program and download filters from the online archive. The program's interface features the same functionality as the website's, so one can also upload filters...
I have begun on the online filter archive, which is one of the things on my todo list concerning improvements to MPLF. There are three major parts to the archive:
The backing library, table architecture and moderation system.A web interface.An XML-RPC interface for the program to use.The first and second items are finished, the web archive is currently accessible through the web interface at http://www.lokorin.com/mplf/archive.php. The interface...
You might have noticed that the link section did not survive when lokorin.com was rebuilt . That was mainly because I felt that I didn't update it often enough.
If you look at the menu you will however see that the links tab is back and well, while the forum link has been removed (but not the forum itself). The forum link was removed because I felt that it had no major purpose to the visitors, I mainly used it for discussing private projects...
Multipurpose Log Filter has now been fully tested and version 1.0 has been released. The new version can be downloaded from the download section or via "Miscellaneous->Search for update" in the program's menu if you have 0.91+ installed. The major changes made during the tests were improvements to the regular expression generator. It should now be a lot faster and more resource efficient. Also it can now handle all tests I throw at it,...
I have made some smaller adjustments to the Multipurpose Log Filter (the current version is 0.91).
The path of the config file has been changed to $HOME/.mplf/conf.xml .The default filter dir now also resides in $HOME/.mplf .The config editor inside the program should now work a bit better.The Up/Down buttons for the rule list now use graphical arrows instead of the texts 'Up' and 'Down'.The regexp generator has been improved, it still needs more...
The program is nearing completion, I have some known bugs to sort out and then it's time for some real testing. Everything in the current version (0.9) should work okay except for the updater frame for which I haven't set up a server side yet. The new version (and its source) can be downloaded from the Multipurpose Log Filter's download section, the javadoc has also been updated.
I decided to abandon the originally planned idea of using serialised...
