Baby-demo: In order to make sure that we integrate the current efforts before the end of this term and everybody is gone, we will have two integration steps, done as demos. The first one is a baby-demo, to be completed by May 1. The baby-demo will contain: - the wrapped megamodule Roomreservation - a simple megaprogam without any control structures - I/O Things to be done for the baby-demo: - wrapping Roomreservation (Hao, Pankaj) - making compiler output compatible to wrappers (Woody) - finishing conversion function for output (Hao) - finishing the I/O-megamodule for output of datablobs: integrating conversion function and making the I/O-megamodule CHAIMS-compliant (Kazuki) - integrating it: writing, compiling and executing small megaprogram (Woody) Parameters of INVOKE and SETATTRIBUTES: Apart from the method-name in INVOKE which is a string, all other values are ASN.1-datablobs. If such a value should be hard-coded in the megaprogram, then the compiler has to convert it into an ASN.1-datablob by calling the appropriate converter routine. Open points/tasks to be dealt with at a later point: - exception handling and error reporting in wrappers - EXAMINE right now just returns a boolean, later on we might need more than two possible values Any remarks, changes, add-ons to these minutes?
