Things To Do

These are the bugs and restrictions for the current version of Scheduler. For an older version, check out the history of Scheduler.

Bugs

  • The task parameters are not updated after changing them in the editor window.
  • The Help window is not accessible when run from the About window, since the latter is a modal window.
  • No error messages when icebrowserbean.jar is not in the classpath.
  • No error messages when a .tasks file is not readable.

Restrictions

  • It looks impossible to link tasks with each other, in order to create a task which execution would depend on another task (with a behaviour such as "execute during 2 time units, then waits for task A to complete, and execute during 4 units of time").
  • The method to save a .tasks file is very simple; it saves the class in a file "as is". As a result, if TaskContainer.java or Task.java is altered, it may not be possible to load the older .tasks files.

Enhancements for future versions

  • status bar in the bottom of the window
  • pop-up menu on the list of tasks
  • use of Swing widgets
  • support of file filters "a la Windows"
  • update of all deprecated code
