Development
Environment
- Effectively, you can only develop MPSGui inside Eclipse on lcls-builder.
- Check out the CVS module physics/mps/mpsgui into your workspace
- From now on, the root of project is referred to as $MPSGUI_ROOT
Dependencies
For library paths, see the scripts $MPSGUI_ROOT/mpsgui or $MPSGUI_ROOT/mpscud
- ezJCA (version R0-0-10)
- javainterfaces (current version)
- MPS Config (current version)
- Oracle JDBC driver
- Sqlite JDBC driver
- SwingUtil (current version)
- jgoodies.jar can be added at runtime for the Matlab look & feel
- xal4lcls
- ext.jar (current version)
- xal.jar (current version)
Run inside Eclipse
- Select $MPSGUI_ROOT/src/edu.stanford.slac.mpsgui/MpsGuiLauncher
- Right-click => select Run As... => Java Application
- If you run the app for the first time, it should fail
- Go to Run in the Window menu
- Select "Open Run Dialog..."
- Select "MpsGuiLauncher" in the window on the left
- Select the "Arguments" tab
- Enter

jdbc:sqlite:/usr/local/lcls/epics/iocTop/MachineProtection/mpsConfiguration/algorithm/
jdbc:oracle:thin:MPS_HISTORY/current_password@mccqa.slac.stanford.edu:1521:MCCQA - Replace current_password with the current password (can be found in the $MPSGUI_ROOT/mpsgui script)
- Press "Run"
Release from Eclipse
- Update the application version in $MPSGUI_ROOT/src/edu.stanford.slac.mpsgui.MpsGuiProperties
- Add a note in $MPSGUI_ROOT/RELEASE_NOTES
- Increment the tag version accordingly
- Commit to CVS
- Tag with mpsgui-R###
- Check out the tagged version into production
cd $PHYSICS_TOP/release
cvs co r mpsgui-R### -d mpsgui-R##-# physics/mps/mpsgui - Select File => New Java project => Create project from existing source
- Select $PHYSICS_TOP/release/mpsgui-R###
- Name the project mpsgui-R###
- Press "Finish"
- Right-click on the new project mpsgui-R### => Export...
- Select Java => JAR file
- Check mpsgui-R### in "Resources to export"
- Check "Export generated class files and resources"
- As the export destination, select and/or type
$PHYSICS_TOP/release/mpsgui-R###/jar/mpsgui.jar
Immediate Release

- Ignore/unignore truth tables by writing 0 or 1 to YAGS:IN20:211:IN_LMTSW_BYPV
caput YAGS:IN20:211:IN_LMTSW_BYPV 1 to ignore caput YAGS:IN20:211:IN_LMTSW_BYPV 0 to unignore
- Default solution etc. is "--"
New States
- If the truth table's state can't be found in the Logic DB, make an alert panel that shows the truth table's name, the raw state value from the IOC:BSY0:MP01:TTBLST array, and a message saying "Send the above information to the controls group."
- Documentation
- Highlight new truth table state when selected
Stuff
- Convert all JTables to MpsGuiTables
- MpsLe to remember previous directory
- Make A, B, and potentially C flexible
