Round and round

I am starting to round a first corner where I think I am ready to start testing my first test case. Well test one of my first test case ... failed! :( Well at least gump is listening (It was a gump error not a gump crash). Time to build up some debug code and get test underway.

Maven I read you - gump

Well after a couple hundred print statements I think I have figured out the Gump3 process for parsing workspaces. I have inserted a check for a new maven flag into the gump module file/descriptor that allows maven files to be transformed in gump project files (which I actually create). I have made a skeleton output that gump will run, although many dependences are still waiting to be identified and transposed.

All connected guess I have to work now

Like any good CS nerd I needed more. Well more for less that is. Cause like any CS student I have no money. So how do you accomplish more for less you ask (in the computing world). Well hold on i am getting there. Its simple

1) borrow
2) borrow (kinda like the first and second rules of fight club but now really)
3) synergy
4) VNC
Alright the quick rundown, I had a 1.3GHz vaio (ya I know ... I was high when I bought it) then borrowed a half working shuttle w/ an AMD 64 bit processor (and got it working) and a half working IBM thinkpad (works most of the time). Then hooked the shuttle (running fedora) to the thinkpad (running XP) over synergy. Next connected the shuttle to the vaio (running XP) over VNC. Hey 3 computers, 2 monitors, and one mouse and keyboard, I am excited. Well i got it working guess I will do some work now.

Hey look ... a blog ... quick honey grab the shotgun

Wow, can you believe it, I have been a CSE major for going on 5 years now and this is my first blog/blog post. No wonder I am taking 5 years to get out of school. Anyway I have been and will be, busy at work this summer working on my summer of code project. I am making Gump3 run maven projects! Easy now don't get that excited try and contain yourself.

~ v. 3.0-alpha-3 ~

Anyway after only working on my first open source project for about a week and a half I can say that academia has got some explaining to do. In the thousands of hours of lecture and programs I have done/sat through, academia forgot the lesson plan titled "K, all that crap aside, this is what you are really going to be doing." For which I only have never ending thanks to google for paying me to learn this valued lesson. And people say nothing is free ... hell this one is not only free but I'm gettin paid bitches! (that wasn't directed at anyone cool enough to actually read this). Well I don't want to say everything at once, don't want my first blog post to be my last, so I will go retire now to and run and then maybe a beer.
