[09:47:42 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> i'm trying to pass args to a listener

[09:47:59 CDT(-0500)] <yura> oh

[09:48:16 CDT(-0500)] <yura> i think you cant do it without boiling

[09:49:17 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> yura: really.. i'm doing it in the tests and it seems to be okay..

[09:49:23 CDT(-0500)] <yura> hmm

[09:49:25 CDT(-0500)] <yura> weird

[09:49:34 CDT(-0500)] <yura> never seen that

[09:50:17 CDT(-0500)]

[09:58:08 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> yura: I found the problem

[09:58:16 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> i had spelt listeners wrong ;(

[09:58:35 CDT(-0500)] <yura> haha

[09:58:39 CDT(-0500)] <yura> yes that's the one

[10:30:28 CDT(-0500)] <thealphanerd> yura: have you ever made an npm module that was a binding for c / c++ code?

[10:31:58 CDT(-0500)] <yura> thealphanerd: myself not really, but we might have something similar in our GPII Code base : https://github.com/GPII/linux/tree/master/node_modules/gsettingsBridge

[10:32:23 CDT(-0500)] <thealphanerd> I'll take a eak

[10:32:31 CDT(-0500)] <thealphanerd> I want to write a wrapped for i2c-tools

[10:32:46 CDT(-0500)] <thealphanerd> my research so far has shown that i am in over my head

[10:42:18 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> fluid-everyone: sorry i missed standup again!

[10:42:32 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> grants happening today: Dept. of Ed with ISKME, IBM, and RtF

[10:42:47 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> it's moving along pretty smoothly and will be finished by end of day today

[10:43:02 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> jameswy: i need to touch base with you about the loan form, and might have time to do that this afternoon

[10:43:04 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> i'll ping

[10:51:21 CDT(-0500)] <anastasiac> cindyli, I've just issued a couple of pull requests (which work together) for the IDI site. If you have a few minutes, would you be able to review the changes? The final content is not yet available, but I'd like to at least get the new stuff onto the dev site so that people can review what I've got so far: https://github.com/inclusive-design/idi-theme/pull/59 and https://github.com/inclusive-design/wordpress-fss-theme/pull/8

[10:51:45 CDT(-0500)] <cindyli> sure, anastasiac

[10:51:48 CDT(-0500)] <anastasiac> thanks

[10:52:22 CDT(-0500)] <cindyli> np

[11:03:59 CDT(-0500)] <boyan> Bosmon: are you there to join us for an architectural cloud4all weekly?

[11:08:18 CDT(-0500)] <cindyli> anastasiac: your pull requests look good. since I don't have the push access to the idi repo, perhaps Justin_o can help with the merge?

[11:10:21 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> cindyli, anastasiac: which pull request are you referring to?

[11:14:29 CDT(-0500)] <cindyli> thanks, Justin_o: nvm, anastasiac told me she has push access to that repo.

[11:15:56 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> cindyli: okay..

[11:31:21 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> yura: do you have any thoughts on this issue.. i have an invoker.. it gets triggered by an event from another component.. it fails though because all of the arguments are undefined.. including the one set by IoC.. however if i put a breakpoint in the preInit function of the component with the invoker, then it works fine after i play through it.

[13:29:38 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o_> fluid-everyone: today's community meeting is on Interaction Design would anyone who is remote like to join?

[14:58:21 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> michelled: ping

[14:58:33 CDT(-0500)] <michelled> hi jessm

[14:58:36 CDT(-0500)] <michelled> how's it going?

[14:58:39 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> going

[14:58:42 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> can you jump on skype?

[14:59:18 CDT(-0500)] <michelled> can it wait a few minutes? I can leave the community meeting if it's important

[15:01:35 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> it can wait a few

[15:12:27 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o_> Bosmon: do you have a quick minute for a question?

[15:16:53 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> Hi Justin_o

[15:16:59 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> I saw a little about your IoC problem earlier

[15:17:04 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> Have you managed to characterise it any more?

[15:18:13 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> Bosmon: yes.. a bit.. here's the summary

[15:18:44 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> it seems that it is a problem with the resolution of the arguments to the invoker

[15:19:21 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> unless i put a break point on either the preinit or finalinit functions. the component argument passed into the invoker will not resolve

[15:19:53 CDT(-0500)]

[15:20:14 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> component there would resolve to undefined.. even though it is the component that the invoker is attached to

[15:20:46 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> note also that the invoker is called as a listener to the event of some other compoent

[15:21:04 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> sorry i don't have the code in at the moment, so there isn't anything i can show you

[15:21:13 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> anyways.. any thoughts on that

[15:21:33 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> oops.. supposed to be a "?"

[15:23:12 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> ok

[15:23:20 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> Is the component part of the same tree?

[15:23:52 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> That is, are the component which holds the invoker, and the component which fires the event, part of the same tree?

[15:23:58 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> yes.. the event is passed through the parent, so it is listening to the parents event

[15:24:30 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> Bosmon: ^

[15:24:35 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> Yes

[15:24:40 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> Hard to say what is going on without an example

[15:24:42 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> It may be a bug

[15:25:07 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> Bosmon: okay.. i'll try to work on it a bit more tomorrow and if it doesn't pan out.. i'll try to make the code visible somehow for you

[15:25:11 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> you'll be around tomorrow?

[15:26:05 CDT(-0500)] <Bosmon> Yes, I'll be here

[15:27:59 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> thanks.. talk to you tomorrow
