Zhan July 25-31

• This week I have finished the main two tasks I listed last week. The chat window's improvement work was finally completed, code is submitted on subversion server and submitted the patch to weltall. Another task is to finish the work for enabling displaying images in books. This work is alomst done after I implemented the pawsDocumentView widget. So this task is not so hard. The only problem whiling woring is to update database to give the character on my test game the right book. At first I didn't know the server cached all the data after it started. I just update the database but I didn't get the corresponding result in the client side. I tried serveral times and wasted lots of time until I finally realized that some data in the database is cached by the server and then the problem was solved. For the example thing, I have already had an example before. So I created a sample directory on subversion and uploaded two sample files and gave corresponding log info to introduce how to use the sample files.
• I have just checked my proposal timeline. According to the timeline, it's time for me to start to implement the idea of using RTT to render windows and improvie crafting books. But it seems that talad want me to focus more on GUI improvements. So I think I should discuss this problem with talad and weltall to get clear about what I need to do on the next stage.
• Following is what I have done this week:
  • Finished the work on chat window.
  • Finished the work on enabling books to show images.
  • Commited codes to subversion server. Uploaded samples.

• Plan for next week
  • Dicuss with talad and weltall to plan the next step.
