EScope0: A "do nothing" code refactoring using packages

EScope0 is essentially the same of PreEScope4, except for the fact that source files are now organized in packages.

This application defines three panels. At the left side, when a database is open, the hierarchical structure is displayed and it is possible to navigate in the tree. When a node containing a valid signal is clicked, the corresponding waveform is displayed in the central panel. It is then possible to drag a crosshair over the displayed waveform, and the currenly selected (X, Y) pair values are printed in the upper panel.

The File Menu Bar option allows to:

To exercise this program the following steps are required:

  1. If not already running, start a MDSplus data server. On windows, click on start->programs->MDSplus->MDSDataserver. On Linux, run script start_mdsip.
  2. Change directory in  <source root>/escopes/escope0, where <source root> is the directory where you copied the source directory in the CD.
  3. Include the current directory in your CLASSPATH environmante variable. On Windows this can be done by changing the CLASSPATH definition in Control Panel/System setting, or by the command
        set CLASSPATH=.;%CLASSPATH%
    On Linux (bash shell) this can be done by the command
       export CLASSPATH=.:$CLASSPATH
  4. Compile  the java source files with the command
        javac *.java
  5. Run the program with no arguments.
        java EScope0

When the edam database is open, valid signals are listed in the SIGNALS.PB subtree.

 

Unlike PreEScopes, the source files for EScopes are organized in directories. The usage of directories is required by the package definition.
