    WeekWeekly Objective
    Daily progressMentor comments
    Meeting notes
    Week 1 - 14th MayImplement Transport Layer and a simple operation (eg: Ping)

    Monday: Studing hotrod protocol and existing java client

     

    Tuesday: Studing Hotrod protocol and existing java client, Implementing classes that hold hotrod header patameters and hotrod opcodes, Started Implementing TCP Transport Layer.

     

     

    Wednesday: Studing protocol furher. Specially the response frame.

     

    Thursday: Researched on various testing tools I can use to test the library. (egL NUnit and Microsoft Visual Studio Integrated Unit Testing Framework)

     

    Friday: Tried to start the server for testing (using python script) , but couldn't succeed.

     

    Note: There was a little deviation from the plan as I did not focus on implementing operations. Instead I focussed more on
    understand the protocol and researching unit testing methodologies. Transport layer implementations were carried out. (send and listen methods, connecting to remote server.)

    - Encoding/decoding variable length integers and longs would be something easy to get started with too.

     

    - Python script startup issues could be due to relative path issues with regards to where the Infinispan configuration is located. Workarounds suggested on IRC and email.

     

    - Think about connection pooling, and avoiding constant thread creation.

     

    - GitHub repo for the .NET client created.


    Week 2 - 21st May

    - write a base unit test class that can start a hotrod server from dot net

    - implementing ping, put and get operations with a single-server unit tests

    Monday:Transport Layer Implementation

    Tuesday: PING, PUT, GET Operations implementation

    Wednesday: PING, PUT, GET Operations implementation

    Thursday: PING, PUT, GET Operations implementation

    Friday: Debugging and eliminating build errors

     

    Note: Got started with writing unit tests. Pushed to Git repo



    Week 3 - 28th May

    - Add unit tests for put, get, ping

    - continue implemening operations: containsKey, getWithVersion, remove, putIfAbsent, replace, bulkGet, removeIfUnmodified, clean and stats 

    Monday: Learning about writing unit tests and writing unit tests for

    developed operations

    Tuesday: Implementing Remove, ContainsKey, PutIfAbsent

    Wednesday:Implementing Remove, ContainsKey, PutIfAbsent

    Thursday: Unit Testing

    Friday: Debugging



    Week 4 - 4st June- bug fixing, implement rest of the operations

    Monday: Solved some issues regarding transport layer by introducing

    a BufferedWriter instead of directly writing onto the stream

    Tuesday: Implemented Operations and unit tests

    Wednesday:Implemented Operations and unit tests

    Thursday:Implemented Operations and unit tests

    Friday:Implemented Operations and unit tests



    Week 5, 11th June
