| [cdt-dev] CDT Fall Conference |
|
Logistics: October 25-27 Location: Based on your feedback I have made some changes. I have
not made any adjustments based on the agenda for language symposium since I've
not received any details. I feel we should leave language topics scheduled as
they are in order to leave sufficient time for discussion during the
conference. We can also add BofFs in the evenings. Chris has suggested
a BofF on Tuesday evening on making the lives of ISVs easier.
"Currently there are a lot of hoops that we and others jump through
to make products out of the CDT, and we should try to ease that pain as much as
we can." Chris I'm assuming that you are leading this BofF. We still have two open time slots the first day for
Debugging topics, be it requirements or design. As well, there is an open time
slot on Thursday since the subject previously scheduled will be covered off
under the language symposium. Tuesday October 25, 2005 9:15-10:00 Introduction and kick-off 10:00 - 11:00 Presentation: QNX: Debugger Architecture -
challenges, deficiencies, solutions. 11:00 -11:15 Break 11:15- 12:15 Presentation: Open for other projects DSDP or
Platform. 12:15-1:15 Lunch 1:15 - 2:15 Volunteer? Debugger- Design Session: There are
a lot of requirements that have been under discussion for the past several
months from members of the CDT team as well s the DSP team. By fall it may be
appropriate to hold a Design review or session for these requirements. 2:15-2:30 Break 2:30- 3:00 Presentation:LosAlmos:Greg: Extending CDT to
debug programs in parallel- presentation of the results of this work 3:00 -4:00 Presentation:Symbian:Lars: Symbian is purposing
a contribution to the CDT called a Template Engine. This is a template based
mechanism to create projects, add items to projects, manipulate projects, etc.
that is driven by an XML file for generating wizard pages and a process description
which tells the engine how to process the data from the wizard. The UI and
process side are extensible. Assuming sufficient progress is made in the next
few weeks, Lars will give a presentation with a small demo describing the
template engine to check whether there is a case for contributing the template
engine to CDT. Wednesday October 26, 2005 9:00 -10:00 Presentation:LosAlmos:Craig: Using CDT as a
platform for Multi-language support - presentation of work they have done in
this area. The purpose of the presentation is to make everyone aware of the
issues and to try and come to a consensus about generic language support in
CDT. 10:00-11:00 Presentation -Demo:UIUC:Jeff Overbey: How to
Integrate a New Language into the CDT in 15 Minutes. 11:00-11:15 Break 11:15-12:15 Presentaion:Intel:Leo: The possibility of a
CDT-Wide concept of a "tool-chain". QNX is interested in working with
Intel on this presentation. 12:15 - 1:15 Lunch 1:15-2:15 Presentation: TI:Martin, QNX:Thomas CDT End User
Experience - Many companies are now shipping the CDT as part of their own
custom development environments. This session will present some of the end user
likes, dislikes and general comments on CDT. This session should be used as an
opportunity to help plan end-user relevant development activities for the CDT
that will benefit the widest possible audience and improve the overall user
experience. 2:15-2:30 Break 2:30-3:00 Presentation:QNX: Doug: Parser and all things
related - Architecture overview as well as current issues challenges. 3:00 - 4:00 Discussion:Intel:Leo: Discussion of
where we think CDT is with regards to scalability and performance. Thursday October 27, 2005 9:15-10:15 Presentaion:Intel:Leo & Chris - Build
system requirements 10:15-10:30 Break 10:30 - 11:30 Open time slot - This was a place
holder for a Language Development Tool subject by other projects such as LDP,
DSP or the Platform. Since this will be covered off in the language symposium
on Friday, this now becomes an open time slot 11:30 12:00 Discussion:Intel: Leo: Synchronizing project
loading so that project files (.cdtproject, .cdtbuild) are loaded before things
like indexers, builders, start running. 12:00-1:00 Lunch 1:00-2:00 Presentation: QNX:Doug: CDT and the Next
Generation C/C++ Developer - discussion around future strategy and vision for
the CDT project. 2:00-3:00 Presentation: QNX: Future Project Planning - 12

past experience, what worked or didn't as far as how we ran the projects. Where
can we improve? Numbers so far: Symbian: (2) TI:Ch:(4) Intel: (4) Nokia:(3). WindRiver:(3) QNX:(7) UIUC (3) Altera (2) Eclispe Foundation |
