Hello all,

I am sorry for the 48 hour delay in sending the update for the week 7. I
met up with an unexpected emergency and had to rush out of station because
of which I didn't have access to my laptop for the past few days.

This is what I did during the past week.

I got some errors while integrating, such as :

*bin/monkey: symbol lookup error: <path to monkey source
code>/plugins/cache/monkey-cache.so: undefined symbol: je_malloc*


I had to enable the *--malloc-libc* to get it fixed. But with no result. I
used PLUGIN_TRACE to find out location of errors. I then tried to play
around with the header files in the dependencies folder by including them
in the necessary files this seemed to workout for me !

The next issue that I faced was that of a segmentation fault.  I again used
PLUGIN_TRACE to debug and find out the location and it turned out that it
was being caused due to a null point exception.

These were a few among a list of  other errors that I got.

I then did a basic integration of the caching plugin with the server - just
an extra feature to look up files from the cache. I tried testing the
performance of the server with and without the caching plugin, with the
help of weighttp (a lightweight web server performance benchmarking tool)
and found that I have done some grave error because of which the
performance of the server deteriorates even more, when I run the server
with the caching plugin (which is not supposed to happen !). I am looking
into it right now.

Parallely I also tried out some basic tutorials for creation of GUI using
Twitter bootstrap and Angular JS. This was the easiest part. But since as
of now, the caching plugin is not yet ready, I will be concentrating on it
till I get it fixed.

Hope I get it ready soon !
