This is my second time diving into the vast ocean of Poco Cache library source code. And since this is my second time studying it, I actually get a much better understanding and overview of how the Poco Cache really works. It works by event handling. The moment there is a need for the elements to be removed, it will fire an event to notify the strategy on which elements it would like to remove, and it will then pass Read more
This week I worked on the front end of Boards and Projects. This two has different front end. For Boards the front end is quite simple because all the information are in list. Meanwhile for Projects Dr Shawn decided to make it in Card style. But the functionalities for both are quite similar. To help me understand how to build the front end I refer a lot to admin on rest demo because there are a few same functionalities in Read more
After having much fun with the PIC32 Starter Kit, I am currently moving on to the real boards. As expected, the previous USB code that worked on the starter kit no longer work properly on the real boards. Got the 2 LEDs to work on the boards and hence started debugging the code but not much progress was made besides the fact that the computer detects it as a HID Keyboard. A quick check at the board documentation did hint Read more
Last week was my final week in AESTE and I managed to wrap up all the C++ Drivers to spec thanks to Dr Shawn’s guidance as he nudged me ever so slightly in the right direction by questioning my thought process and making me reflect on the naming conventions that I’ve chosen. Fair enough, I’ve been inconsistent in some parts of my code in following the Camel Casing convention therefore I had to spend some time correcting them. However, when Read more
I started this week by working on the bugs that I overlooked and it took me 2 days to solve all the bugs. After that I straight away working on the other project with another intern. We start working on the authentication part first which took us quite a while to fix it. Then we worked on CRUD (Create,Read,Update,Delete). Dr Shawn told us that he wants the front end to be in Card style but to be safe we started Read more
This week started off with me making a terrible mistake. Dr. Shawn asked me to restructure the code as we need to start pushing any work related to front-end to the remote repository. I was instructed to download the zip file from admin-on-rest, unzip the file and push the whole thing into the remote repository. However, I went on git cloning the admin-on-rest repository and pushing it to the project repository, as I had always thought git cloning and zipping Read more
Last week I successfully completed the Gpio and Spi driver heavily inspired by a third-party API so that there is consistency in the way the code is written and how it is called. Referring to the latter, I’ve alse included a T3 namespace so that functions are now called via the format, T3::Gpio::Write(int dvalue) for example. This week I will be wrapping up by internship in Aeste, it has been a tremendous learning experience so far, I’ve managed to hone Read more
This week I have fixed the last bug. I thought I have check and fix all the bugs but when Dr Shawn checked my works he said that there still a few bugs that he found in the project. I have to recheck and fix the bugs. It is my mistake for not being meticulous when checking the project. I also have started working on Admin on Rest for new project. I have to handle the front end of the Read more
Upon receiving the board, I started by getting the typical Hello World program to work (i.e. getting LEDs to light up). Of the 2 methods that can be used to toggle a pin which are 1. Directly writing values to TRISDX and RDX and 2. Using the PLIB Library which is provided by Harmony, Dr. Shawn thought about the pros and cons of both methods and decided to make our lives easier by going with the PLIB Library method which Read more
First of all, I’m glad that the days of digging into POCO library and locating the code segment which removes elements upon exipration didn’t go wasted. I managed to get the caching expiration mechasmin done without any error despite having run into several problems before. For example, the actual code implements class template which is nested. I was initially quite confused by this but I managed to understand it and implement it at the end. The other challenge was constructing Read more
