Any special algos used? for this it uses oql to construct the sql like scan it in or something and convert it to text ah ok reinhard have it something common with ZODB? dunno though that's probably going to be a copyright voilation ;) violation Yurik: it stores objects of the type "dataobject" defined in geas i don't know ZODB it does not sture python objects or c objects reinhard: did anyone ever see that email I sent that odmg guy? it stores geas objects did it make it to the list? chillywilly: yes i saw it I never got a reply :( chillywilly: it is even mentioned in the kc really? ok and even the reply made it to the list reinhard does geas object have python "mappings"> no kidding reinhard does geas object have python "mappings"? reinhard: hmmm Yurik: not 1:1 reinhard: man I must've mussed that then' doh reinhard I mean can geas object be represented as python one? there is a idl for geas objects reinhard: gnue-geas list yes i mean Yurik: yes but there is only one class in python for all classes in geas reinhard: the latest KC form last week? from like you have 10 fields in geas Yurik: and you can do python call "object.getField("fieldname"); so the geas object fields don't correspond to the python object fields not sure if i am understandable... chillywilly: today's kc ok reinhard clear. Does GNUe plan to use something to store pure python objects or make a real Python mapping or anything like this :)? no chillywilly: and i don't remember which list ok well I have it in my "sent" folder Yurik: not really so I can figure it out oh, ok, clear. thank you. Yurik: because of performance issues Yurik MAIN REASON: not portable reinhard: thanks much dude :) one of our requirements is to support more than python dneighbo what is not portable? between languages? storing things as python objects hurts that :) perhaps i shoudl clarify object databases have been proven to be bad in practice for ERP solutions we do not want an object 'database' we want a relational database that can be treated like an object db to get best of both worlds before you flame i have worked for large companies that tried to use OODB to do ERP so i speak from experience not from my jowls :) in a 'perfect' world all starage would be OOP in fact, as you can remember, I like rdbms, too. And do not want to use only one method of object storage. dneighbo: what about an object->relational mapping? but we arent in that world :) like ODMG chillywilly thats what im saying ok :P relational storage object representation for application usage Does GNUe objectstore support complex objects? well if you design it right you can have whatever type of storage you want, file, database, pickled/serialized objects, etc. i.e., a persistent framework and you should not have to know they are actually in a database are a file or whatever s/are/or chillywilly right :) there's one in my softaare design book, but if ODMG is as nice as a standard as it looks I would love to implement it software although I have top read that guy's email cause if it is not "Free" then I will roll my own dneighbo Does GNUe objectstore support complex objects? Yurik: it does our gcd syntax is similar to odl syntax chillywilly so it stores any object with any possible structure? yes you specify the object in a gcd file look in gnue/packages if you have cvs checked out ok, clear no, I have no cvs checked out i've only geas downloaded :-) cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@sibversions.gnu.org:/cvs co login er cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@sibversions.gnu.org:/cvs login cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@sibversions.gnu.org:/cvs co gnue woops that's subversions not sibversions Action: Yurik opened a new bottle of juice Yurik: cvs is pretty safe to run atm chillywilly ok you can even have both C and python methods now at the same time started checking out cool :) Action: chillywilly sees the guys reply now soh!

Action: Yurik is out for few minutes.. hi mpav I havn't been able to get a clear idea of what the goal of GNUe is.. he dneighbo to rule the world :) just kidding we have 3 major goals dneighbo :-) heheh.. 1. Provide an application framework that is free as in libre for businesses to use to rapidly build business applications why would i want to use GNUe vs Java+JBoss+Tomcat, etc? because Java has freedom issues ;P and the GNU Java projects are lacking I like a lot of GNU software; however, I refuse to live and die by the GNU sword 2. With that framework build applications that are collectively put together to do something like an ERP 3. assemble in one place all 'Free Software' targeted for the enterprise so businesses can have a single entry point into GNU Solutions mpav the why not use java there are a few reasons.... I am charged with designing, developing and deploying an enterpise back end software solution for a new company a. we have used java and honestly until only recently java was for Sun and Windows only (the vm's elsewhere SUCKED) i can code C and Java, so I have the flexibility to go either way linux vm is decent b. Sun owns java and can cripple unduly anyone who uses it, look what they did to J++ and standards set forth for EJB etc... i agree w/ Sun's potential for causing licensing issues c. Java is a standard you hae NO say so in and can fall on the sword at anytime because of it however, java is very mature, i can find developers who can code it for very cheap dneighbo: Java: Write once, debug everywhere! mpav: gnue is nearly 3.5 years old a decent linux jvm (much less a free one) didnt surface until last 16mos dneigbo: interesting.. mpav: lastly the reason GNUe exists is for freedom and that is its primary reason all developer sign copyright to free software foundation psu (psu@manorcon.demon.co.uk) left #gnuenterprise. all code is GP: the application server... is it geared to be a truely middle ware system? ie you can connect fat clients along w/ web clients to it? GPL mpav yes sweat.. so when i hear, i can hire java developers cheaper i can say, i cant put a price on my freedom :) i think you will find good programmers can work with any language i agree i have yet to find (though im sure they exist) a developer that has used python for something 'real' and not pretty much fallen in love with it we have had a few ex java programmers say 'this is java done right' :) but im not here to beat up on java really however, most free software people cannot make the jump to understand the a companies succes has little to do with whether or not it used the technically superior technology in fact to prove it :) i will tell you that several good java tools exist in the free community enhydra, jboss, kaffe, gnuclass path to name a few while doing things the "right" way can save in re-code costs and hardware.. but has little effect on the bottom line i can even point you to at least one solution similar to gnue (though less modular) all written in java, it is called kontor hmm basically some people really like java and believe in EJB and J2EE i think it is very mature we dont discount that, but rather prefer the freedom and flexibility we think we will provide however, i do not like the idea that it is heavily geared towards web based presentation fwiw: technically you could use java as your biz rule language with our appserver i want both and RMI as your method transport MicahY ([u4dhbQ3YX@12.225.21.221) joined #gnuenterprise. the question is not Java vs. C. it is J2EE vs GNUe we are developing our web UI driver as we speak mpav: in fact, J2EE is a constructor, but ERP solution like GNUe or E/AS are aimed to be a constructor with very useful and big blocks for making the business solutions delivered easier, as I can understand :-) we find our customers are more happy with robust real clients than web clients but we value a good web architcture as well GNUe guys, am I right about GNUe? :) Yurik yes interesting.. Yurik you hit onthe piece pepole over look about j2ee i don tknow many companies that use j2ee that want to 'share' what they are coding in GNUe everything developed for it is shared so if i go and make some killer classes and such they become avaliable to your company so when you talke about reuse j2ee has this yes, but generally only internal to company are any of the core developers working on this full-time (ie paid by some corporate entity?) gnue is looking to have this worldwide between all companies using gnue mpav: not core team jcater is CTO of his corp and works on gnue a LOT though he isnt a dedicated programmer to gnue hmm.. B2B that would actually work. many of his staff use the tool as well we have 1 developer full time in lithunia that is just starting and we have 2 interns starting soon i for a few months was paid to work on gnue full time as well what areas need work the most? we do have a few clients that are using gnue or ar egetting ready for currently we need to start building our application base i.e. using the tools to write applications for mass consumption and our application server needs some work the other big items are get report server functioning as a 'server' how does the licensing effect if someone uses GNUe as the basis for their back office; however, does not wish to release their application? and get our integration tool up to snuff GPL is only applicable if YOU DISTRIBUTE so if you download gnue you can customize to your hearts content and never give back a dime of code AS LONG AS YOU DONT DISTRIBUTE to ANYONE OUTSIDE YOUR ENTITY yes, i know.. however, would using it in a company be classified as distrubuting? no ok.. so it stays in, you are good. hmm. there has been debate, but i believe the official position is that it goes by 'entity' i have a feeling i am re-implementing a lot of things you have already done.. so your 'company' is an 'entity' thusly a single thing :) possibly we would love to work with you :) put it this way we never set anything in stone logging service, database abstraction, etc.. we are not arrogant cocky jerks (or at least we tell ourselves that) haha rofl so if we get suggestions that make sense we try to make sure to fold them into what we are doing we also take HUGE precendence in adding features for people that are using in real life GNUe - the freindly GNU project :) not just playing with gnue hmm.. HR application would be huge Commercial HR applications suck ass don't integrate with anything else.. haha Action: jbailey is away: Buying a soundcard ie.. you hire an employee and enable basic network services.. GNUe - software for your business that doesn't suck ass mpav im working on it real time like.. email, etc.. Action: Yurik is listening CATS :-) i have two entities asking for payroll yesterday payroll would be good too.. start small.. then move up the chain to things like customer service app, trouble ticket system, etc.. chillywilly: you get anywhere with the whole object store thingy? odmg etc? mpav my goals are basic HR and then start adding payroll to it as you have to have hr data to do payroll :) well at least name and ssn :) right.. we also have lots on front for basic Maniac: ummm, no I have no cash to buy the spec yet accounting, inventory, purchase orders will have to wait until friday plus I am busy with this other thing of mine JDO spec is available yes, I was about to try and dig it up you got a url? otherwise I will have to go a looking myself however neilt (~neilt@dhcp64-134-54-175.chan.dca.wayport.net) joined #gnuenterprise. ai did go to the sun web pae page and their JDO spec looks to be proprietary they want you to click some stupid agreement to view it which turned me off dneighbo: thanks for the info.. i will be back.. ok dneighbo: do you have developer's FAQ, including coding styles, API's used, etc? yeah but they are scattered currently oh, well i clicked ok :) hmm.. yea I did too jsut for shit and giggles click user docs in the top left corner of http://www.gnuenterprise.org/ but it did not like galeon maybe it will like the newer one ;) dneighbo: is the code for the HR app in CVS? no mpav: nope a proposal is one of the last news items we will start to turn that into a package very soon :) k. hr proposal is posted to the webs site neilt: you just do that recently? http://www.gnuenterprise.org/~neilt/GNUe_HR_Package.txt yes, yesterday awesome #gnuenterprise: mode change '+o neilt' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services. neilt: I amabout to commit some changes to the country codes and currency stiff pointed out by Yurik stuff what changes this stuff has been discussed russian and ukranian stuff what changes typos i think neilt like country codes and currencies in the default sql files are wrong russia code was rs when its really ru they are ISO standard that kind of thing no big deal hmm where did you get the iso form in our db i checked the iso standard are the changes local custom or ISO standards and they werent what chillywilly said was in there I didn;'t say anything about it I am a mere pawn i told him to go off the links i gave for the iso standard :) Yurik siad it was wrong I took him for his word as he lives in that part of th eworld chillywilly: that may or may not be good enough well I haven't done anything yet the default SQL files were loaded directly from the ISO data sources neilt: you want the patch so you can check it? or is it supposed to ne iso compliant? ok In fact (I don't know exactly) ISO may differ from my proposed changes, but when the world (and business!) use RU, UA / RUR, UAH - it says something to you? :-) neilt there was "USSR roubles" - what can I say?! :-) Yurik: not opposed to having local modifications, the question is where they belong neilt USSR was broken in 1991 :) and if they are ISO or not we just have todo the homework to determine the propoer place not questioning the need and there were NO ukranian currency at all :) shall I post the patch to gnue-dev@gnu.org and let you guys hash it out? and there was NO ukranian currency at all :) Yurik: the ISO stuff is usually a little behind for lake breaking changes so should you use an outdated standard or not? neilt but ten years passed? :) its just if its not ISO then we will put it in a separate sql files so people can decide if they want it or not Yurik: yes or longerr USSR roubles will stay because it was a standard once for historical reason so the code wont be reused Anybody using USSR roubles? :-) haha neilt: how do you handle localizations then? what if your are doing historical inflation analysis you might have to have a database in russian rubles how do you propose to do it depends on the changes if you send them to me I will check ISO it si 4 lines neilt ok. but RUR and UAH should be used for current currencies :-) ok if they are ISO they go in if they are local adaptions then I will create a new sql files with an explainition header so the implementor can decide to load or not it will not be useful for ukranian/russian companies to use ERP without their currency, eh? :) Yurik: no disagreement here but this is not about use or not use its just about where it goes so we can maintain the files if we just put whatever in our standard files, we will have chaos neilt imagine you are a usual manager and trying to install GNUe and you MUST know that he must do something unusual to get your currency installed. Yurik: not at all because the russian installer will put it in if you are installing in russian neilt ok. You're in U.S. But you are working with Ukranian customer... :-) there will also be no need for US states in russia neilt: sedn the patch to neilt@gnue.org? this is a general problem that the installer must deal with send chillywilly: sure working with customer outside of U.S. - normal thing. (Our company works with companies in U.S. :-)) ) of validate that the changes are ISO Yurik: ok, for international company yes but a local company may not need it s/of/or neilt not for international only, I think. chillywilly: my only concern is that we check the data first neilt U.S. company can use ukranian/russian (p.e.) offshore software development companies to get develop their local software :-) neilt: whateve rman I wash my hands of this as this is not my doing anyway ;) you get to deal with it...it's your stuff man ;) Yurik: by definition any company that trades internationally is an international company because it raises the bar in terms of software requirements chillywilly: cool neilt ok, you may say so. neilt but at the start of the solution installation company may not to know whether it will work with other countries or not, right? Action: Yurik got an SMS i certainly would know if i were doing the installation but that does not limit the use or not in our design there are very few differences but there is different data loaded so if you configure as a local operation and then decide to branch out a sysadmin would load some adidtional data if it was not loaded initially crap i dont understand the problem crap? ok. I think that this conversation on a very slight change is very funny, to too big for the size of the problem... As for me, I've just proposed to change currencies and codes to their current state. You may include change or not - it is your task :) but, finally, I think this kind of solution (loading additional changes) - is not good one; as I can say from my experience. ok our current design is that the sql files are ISO standard designations neilt: thought you were in my aliases and we allow for local modifications neilt: had to resend with your while email no biggie s/while// Action: Yurik tired to explain, and finishing to do it. It is your area to decide whether update or not :-) Action: jbailey is back (gone 00:31:20) wb jbailey tx Yurik: it shouldn't be that big if deal it culd be just the matter of saying oh the ISo says your currency is this but we have a local module that say this....which do you wan tto use....and they click the button Yurik: thanks for the info not trying to be a pain, but we have to have some order to how we make changes a no brainer plus old ppl are ornery anyway and they don't liek change ;) Action: chillywilly runs chillywilly: :) chillywilly: keep that in mind next time also duely noted jbailey (~jbailey@Toronto-HSE-ppp3641773.sympatico.ca) left #gnuenterprise ("Client Exiting").
