Here is my first blog post about my progress so far for my gsoc project, a little later than it should be, but at least it's here! So, what have I been working on? Two things, basically: archiving with cross-references, and view-less layouts. I've been chatting with my mentor and things are getting revised fairly quickly, so instead of writing about implementation, I'll write about the ideas and results of what I'm working on!

Extending the media kit with the ability to read DVD is a challenge, but a unique opportunity to learn about the kit architecture and Haiku software integration. This time I'll be talking about my actual first development steps concerning DVD support.

The first objective of this project is to give Media Player the ability to play DVD's. Here's a quick introduction of the tools I chose for the job.

Moving on from exploring the Interface Kit, we turn our attention to the Storage Kit in this lesson. We take a look at the kit from a broad perspective and also begin using some of its many of the classes. We take a break from writing GUI applications and, instead, write a console directory-listing program using C++.

A summary of Haiku, Inc.'s accomplishments in the past year

Some days ago, I realized that Haiku, Inc. never gave an official status update on its progress. Looking back at where we were last year, a lot of progress has been made. While this is not an official statement from the BOD, these are just my personal observations and recollections.

Lesson 19: Resources and Pictures

Ten years ago when I first started to learn to write code using BeOS, I had a lot of questions that I couldn't any documentation to give me the answers. Luckily, there was the Be Code Talk mailing list and kindhearted members of the community, like David Sowsy (Animaxo, Vesa Accepted). Resources are one of those things that eluded me. Eventually I figured them out, but Lesson 19 lays some of it out in plain conversation.
