White noise from a gearhead
D+7 : Hacking, hacking and hacking, before the end is coming
Some people left today, there’s obviously less people in the computer labs already. But, it doesn’t stop us to work on KDE! Today was very productive (attending no meeting helps).
I finished a thin layer around HAL which will be the backend for a new hardware discovery layer in KDE. It’s works nicely already. Using this small wrapper you can already list hardware with a very few lines of code. I’ll now build a full featured API on top of this to be able to do more complex manipulations in applications.
Since I needed a break on this kind of work I started to work again on my (almost) secret project… It’s something GUI based for a change, and I plan to make it as reusable as possible, I don’t know if I’ll be able to have something interesting before the end of aKademy. But I’ll continue to work on it after aKademy, I’ll blog again as soon as I have something demoable.
I’ll soon go back to the residence to have some food, and maybe some sleep (except if I continue hacking from there).
