Well, it’s been over 5 weeks since my last post (eep). The good news is that development in this time has been going just as strong as ever. Development actually sped up towards the end of the coding period of the Summer of Code, and the code is pretty much ready for a 1.0 release. [...]

BIRT ODA Driver GUI Milestone 2
Posted in birt, eclipse, oda on July 17, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Well, that was quick. I’ve reached milestone 2 of the GUI for the OpenMRS ODA driver. There were few changes that needed to be added. However, the code is starting to look less like a hack, as functions start to be called from the right place and such.
Now one selects an entity on [...]
BIRT ODA Driver GUI Milestone 1
Posted in birt, eclipse, oda on July 17, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
I have reached the previously mentioned GUI Milestone 1 today. Milestone 1 was letting the user select a filter/cohort, but make it only work with Patients, and for it to select all tokens. This is close to what is now committed. The slight difference is that it selects from all the tokens [...]
Midterm Update
Posted in birt, eclipse, oda, reporting, web service on July 13, 2007 | 1 Comment »
So I find myself just past the midterm of the program, at the end of week 7, looking back at the progress that I’ve made so far. I’m quite happy with what I’ve achieved so far. Not because I’ve got a monstrous load of code written, or because I’ve finished ahead of schedule. [...]
Recapping Lots of Stuff

It’s been a fairly long time since my last entry, so I figured it’s time to write another one. A good amount of work has been getting done.
Firstly, actual work on the plug-in has started. I most recently committed code letting the user ping the server with their connection settings. I’ve also [...]

Edit: It’s come to my attention through @danielroy on twitter that the walkthrough I mention below is no longer available. Sorry about that! I’ve included what was the text of it at the bottom of this entry. Thank goodness for Google Docs
The last few days have been spent learning about and understanding the [...]
A Shell of a Plug-in
Posted in birt, eclipse, oda, reporting on June 9, 2007 | 2 Comments »
Well, I’ve finally got a basic, no-functionality plug-in. I tried copying various aspects of other ODA adapters, such as the Flat File and JDBC ODA Plug-ins. However, nothing worked better than just going with a lot of pre-set-up options. So, here is a walkthrough on how to get a shell of a [...]
Working with Eclipse and Plug-ins
Posted in birt, eclipse, oda, web service on June 5, 2007 | 2 Comments »
Over the past few days, I’ve been experimenting with the plug-ins and the ODA API. I finally got a nice Javadoc set up of the ODA API, generated from getting the source to the ODA interfaces and getting it into Eclipse and generating the Javadocs from within Eclipse. I’ve put them on the Internet [...]
Background Reading
Posted in birt, eclipse, oda, reporting, web service on June 2, 2007 | 2 Comments »
Over the past few days, I’ve been getting set up. I’ve mostly got up an Eclipse development setup, and I’ve been reading up on various API documentation. Not the most glamourous part of this summer’s project, but I’ve got to gain background.
As for the Web service side of things, I’ve been reading on the Javadocs [...]
