Hi,
I have now a better proposal for Google Soc 2008,
if someone could take a look at it and provide some feedback ;)
thanks
PS: I think issues 870 and 2115 are still solved, aren't they?
I'm considering that issue 4946 will be solved before 05/2008
*maas*

Improving the Profiles & Critics Subsystem
Abstract
The Profiles part of the UML2 specification allows the language to be extended
in order to be applied in diverse domains (such as Multi agent systems,
real-time
systems and so on). This feature of the language is also important when defining
platform specific extentions to the UML2 language, like the existing profiles
for
C++, Java, and so on. In this case, a sound support for Profiles will increase
the
extensibility of the ArgoUML code, since it will allow the definition of them
in a
uniform and standards compliant way.
Althought the Profiles subsystem in ArgoUML has successfully been implemented
during
last year's Summer of Code there is still some work to be done. The objectives
of
this project are: (I) solve all current open issues on the Profiles subsystem
(II)
Improve the current GUI for Profiles (III) Improve the documentation for this
subsystem (IV) Improving the critics subsystem
Project Goals
(I) solve all current open issues on the Profiles subsystem
(II) Improve the current GUI for Profiles
(III) Improve the documentation for this subsystem
Timeline
26/05 - week 1
02/06 - week 2
Objectives: discuss and fix the issues 4885, 4993 and 4994
4885 - refactoring org.argouml.profile
4993 - Reloading a profile does not undo edits
4994 - Editing profile does not update diagram
09/06 - week 3
16/06 - week 4
Objectives: improve the current GUI for Profiles
Suggestions:
- full profile management from the explorer
- rewrite the gui for Edit->Settings->Profiles
in a more "professional" style
(like the Configure Perspectives frame)
- create some kind of "wizard" for creating projects
following some profile and for adding new stereotyped
elements
- make the profiles provide special settings tabs for
their stereotyped classes
(these should be used to edit indirectly and correctly
the tagged values defined in the profile)
23/06 - week 5
30/06 - week 6
Objectives: work on the critics subsystem in order to:
. correspond to the needs of the whole set
of wellformedness rules of uml
. correspond to the ideas in the issue 1255
07/07 - MID TERM EVALUATIONS
14/07 - week 7
Objectives: test current implementation and write test cases
21/07 - week 8
28/07 - week 9
04/08 - week 10
Objectives: Write cookbook section for Profiles (issue 4991)
Write manual section for Profiles (issue 4992)
11/08 - PENCILS DOWN DATE
About me
I am a computer science masters student and one of my research group's
goal is to utilize UML modeling to define artificial intelligence problems.
After 5 years of participation I have acquired a very deep knowledge in the UML
2.0 standard (specification level knowledge). I was a GSoC student last year,
when I implemented the support for UML 2.0 Profiles in the ArgoUML. I have at
least 8 years of experience with Java, 5 years of experience with UML, and more
than 10 years of experience with Open Source development.
I have an active knowledge in programming languages as Java, LaTeX,
XML, Javascript and Prolog, however I have some dormant knowledge in many other
languages such as C/C++, PHP, C#, Haskell and so on.
I am currently on the last phase of my master's thesis, where most of
my work is writing my dissertation. I am currently doing a six month research
internship in a research group in France, and plan doing most of the work at my
spare time (I have no fixed daily timeschedule) and at home. I have access to
the internet during most of the day.
