GSOC: Week 8

This weekend I worked on “polishing” the GUI, removing a couple of issues/bugs found in the application as well as further improve the whole application.

What I did this week:

  • Adapted the layout to start with a File browser screen and have the analysis functionality as a button

  • Settings panel can now be triggered from a menu bar so that you get rid of IntroJPanel

  • Leading to previous two changes, I created a general screen to replace the limited functionality of three screens we previously had

  • Allowed double click functionality to open a new window

  • Created a Filtering text field within data browser

  • Added settings into a menu and improve the response when settings are changed

  • Fixed couple of bugs (JFileChooser, button functionality)

  • Added a new look and feel

  • Refactored the buttons panel to include more general functionality

What I aim to do next week:

  • add a shortcut for closing a window (control + w or escape)

  • refactor the way settings are stored (use Java Preferences API)

  • Fix JTable column width to be more flexible

  • Update the Hadoop data model

  • develop and test a full JAR for all platforms

Blocks:

  • None
