Planning of workshop about separation of backend/frontend

• Strategic workshop, (as short as possible)
• Now: Define duration and create appointment
  • 90 minutes, 10. November - End of november 'TODO: Stephan will schedule an appointment
• Call would be sufficient, otherwise Stuttgart travels to Karlsruhe
• Preparation tasks should be done before at dev meeting:
  • Archeology: how are things coupled
  • Identify points to work on, agenda for strategy meeting

Organization of developer meeting

• We have a room.
• First lunch at 12, meet afterwards (~13)
• Agenda:
  1. Identify points to work on, agenda for backend/frontend strategy meeting
  2. Release planning
  3. Integrate testing day
     • Things that are not covered by manual tests
     • Measurements-UI
  4. short point: SoMoX (JaMoPP/Modisco)

Future of SoMoX

• Which versions usable in 2019-06 and Java 11?
  • JaMoPP/SoMoX version
    • Used from update site / GitHub is the update version. Migration not started yet.
    • For example, log4j, slf4j, grapht, com.wohen....; update site should be updated, because with Maven a lot of the dependencies could be solved.
    • Used Eclipse version:
      • 2019-03 worked fine
      • 2019-09 problems occured
      • 2018-06 worked for student
    • Maintenance should be continued. Build has to be fixed for dependencies.
    • Discuss further at dev meeting in Würzburg
  • MoDisco-Version
    • no update
    • Version on GitHub was up-to-date, but there was a commit (October) in SVN by Stephan?
    • TODO: MM look at changes in SVN/git

Deprecation of SimuCom

• Not yet remove from default product. Postpone decision until after the dev meeting
• Status of Measurements-UI
  • should be stable enough, documentation should be fine
  • needs to be built and integrated into release
  • you can still manipulate monitoring manually
• TODO: Stephan add it to the aggregated update site
• TODO: Stephan Integrate Measurements-UI into the product build

Status of recently assigned tasks

• Stephan: StoryDiagramInterpreter Build: PR created, build after merging - done
• Steffen: Commit of working SoMoX version to Github - no update
• Dominik: Logging: a) report prototype logging, b) example where logging doesn't work?, c) introduce Activators for all plugins?
  • SDK: Reproducable by logging from a QVTo transformation
  • Activators are fine
• EDITORS-225 (FR)
  • Ongoing. Apparently not trivial. Anchor points are there but still needs time.
  • Should be possible without extensive Sirius improvements, Misha said it is not easy for beginners.
  • Might help to write to mailing list.
  • Might be delayed/put off, feedback at next concall.
• EDITORS-226 (JH)
  • Resolution: Won't fix
  • Sirius does not currently support this for compartments, not elements. Code deregisters from these events.
  • We couldd create an issue for Sirius. Problem appears to be on GMF side.
• SoMoX-JaMoPP build migration
  • see above
• EDITORS-223 / EDITORS-220
  • Both not reproducible
• SimuLizar PR-6
  • in progress
  • issues adressed, currently still needs feedback from Steffen. Floriment will remind him again.
  • make clear in comments who is currently required to act
• EDITORS-227
  • minor bug, fixed.
• KAMP build migration
  • Should KAMP build part of Palladio? --> KB: no.
  • Started move to separate Travis build, student will finish it.
• PALLADIO-436
  • ConcurrentModificationException while validating -> Fixed
• SIMULIZAR-98
  • in progress
• PALLADIO-432
  • in progress
  • Palladio dev environment would be more helpful, then check for suitable locations in code

• Assignment of new tasks
  • Decision: Discuss/adress at next dev meeting, fix other stuff until then.
