From Revision 1039 to 1020

Rev	Summary	Authors	Date
1039	Trampoline: Make trampoline remove any signal masking done b... Trampoline: Make trampoline remove any signal masking done by the calling process (Caused by Apache mpm-worker or python when using threads)	dcoles	16 years ago
1038	ConsoleService: Fix small regression. Ensure that the consol... ConsoleService: Fix small regression. Ensure that the console is restarted if the response from the console process could not be understood.	dcoles	16 years ago
1037	Console: More clean up work to try and prevent coding errors... Console: More clean up work to try and prevent coding errors from getting cmdQ and lineQ out of sync (that's very bad!). We now use functions to handle each request and the top level loop does the queue management. In short, don't mess directly with the queues unless you know what you're doing! Also added in a ExistingConsole class (extends Console) which can be used to connect up an existing console process rather than a new one with most of the functionality of the Console class. (Basically you can't start a new console)	dcoles	16 years ago
1036	TutorialService: Fix up bug in setting of stdin (would crash... TutorialService: Fix up bug in setting of stdin (would crash scripts)	dcoles	16 years ago
1035	Tutorial: Added in stdin support for exercises (sets them up... Tutorial: Added in stdin support for exercises (sets them up in console)	dcoles	16 years ago
1034	Console: Refactored the code to support supplying of stdin t... Console: Refactored the code to support supplying of stdin to the console. Renamed and unified a few call in the module - inspect is now execute since stdout is written to the console.stdout file-like object rather than being returned as part of the call. __chat becomes split into __chat which deals with the low level chat protocol issues and __handle_chat which deals with console's own protocol. Updated tutorial service to use these new calls. Still have to fix the 'add_stdin' function but should be very simple now. (Just write to console.stdin)	dcoles	16 years ago
1033	python-console: Move incomplete_utf8_sequence() into common.... python-console: Move incomplete_utf8_sequence() into common.util, where it probably belongs.	wagrant	16 years ago
1032	Tutorial: A first approximation of the help lovingly copied ... Tutorial: A first approximation of the help lovingly copied from the first worksheet of 'Informatics 1'. It's not perfect but it's a great starting point.	dcoles	16 years ago
1031	Example worksheets: Fix the element names in worksheet 1 to ... Example worksheets: Fix the element names in worksheet 1 to be actually correct. Also fix the first exercise so it too functions properly.	wagrant	16 years ago
1030	common.util: Don't drag conf.root_dir into the global namesp... common.util: Don't drag conf.root_dir into the global namespace. That's just strange.	wagrant	16 years ago
1029	Tutorial Service: Ported the tutorial service to the console... Tutorial Service: Ported the tutorial service to the console so that all student code should now be run inside the jail. This means that the code will also be contrained by trampoline's ulimits and will no longer need to run as the webserver (with all the badness that entails). * TestFramework has been modifed to make eqvivalent calls to the console. * Tutorial service now starts up a console for each attempt. * Modifications to python-console script and console module to allow new calls needed. * Added a FakeObject class to util to use to represent things that can not be pickled. (Ideally should be in the console module, but the console module can't be imported into the jail at the moment - relies on a full lib/conf/conf.py). Might be possible to make these fake objects able to call the console too?	dcoles	16 years ago
1028	tutorial.js: Removed accidental debug code which turned off ... tutorial.js: Removed accidental debug code which turned off "readonly" property of the "view previous" text boxes. (Sorry - this isn't a serious issue; it just means you can inexplicably edit this box for no reason).	mattgiuca	16 years ago
1027	Tutorial: Added new feature - previous attempt viewing. Allo... Tutorial: Added new feature - previous attempt viewing. Allows users to see code they have previously submitted to tutorials. A new button ("View previous attempts") appears on each exercise box. This uses the getattempts and getattempt Ajax services checked in previously. Note once again: Students are not (for the moment) able to see deactivated attempts (this is a conservative approach - the ability to see deactivated attempts can be turned on by setting HISTORY_ALLOW_INACTIVE = True in tutorialservice).	mattgiuca	16 years ago
1026	CSS: Fixed up 'a' elements as follows: CSS: Fixed up 'a' elements as follows: All 'a' elements now have blue, hover, underline and pointer cursor behaviour as if they were links (to facilitate "fake" links like in file browser). But the IVLE tutorial headings mysteriously seem to have <a> elements in the headers (from the ReStructured Text) - styled that so it doesn't look like a link at all.	mattgiuca	16 years ago
1025	tutorialservice: Added two new GET actions: getattempts and ... tutorialservice: Added two new GET actions: getattempts and getattempt. getattempts retrieves a list of all attempts the user has made for a particular question. getattempt returns the code for a specific attempt. Note that BY DEFAULT, these do not allow you to browse disabled attempts (but this can be easily activated via a flag at the top of tutorialservice/__init__.py). db.py: Added get_problem_attempts and get_problem_attempt methods to do the DB queries for the above actions.	mattgiuca	16 years ago
1024	tutorialservice: Refactored the handler for this service, to... tutorialservice: Refactored the handler for this service, to allow potential new actions which don't all have "code" arguments. Also made it refuse GET requests to "save" or "test" (since these mutate the server). The client uses POST, so this doesn't cause any trouble.	mattgiuca	16 years ago
1023	tutorialservice: Removed 'run' action from tutorialservice (... tutorialservice: Removed 'run' action from tutorialservice (wasn't actually being used -- was just a dummy, then run was implemented a different way).	mattgiuca	16 years ago
1022	Tutorials: Now inspects active status of a problem attempt b... Tutorials: Now inspects active status of a problem attempt before counting it towards your mark for this semester or showing it as a 'partially completed' question. This allows problems attempts to be 'removed' without actually loosing the history of a students attempts (for possible access in the future).	dcoles	16 years ago
1021	Database: Adds active column to problem_attempt table. Database: Adds active column to problem_attempt table. This allows a group of problem attempts (ie. from previous semesters) to be marked as 'inactive' and thus counting toward a problem being assessment for the current semester.	dcoles	16 years ago
1020	common.chat.chat: Unbreak messages longer than 1KiB. Please,... common.chat.chat: Unbreak messages longer than 1KiB. Please, please never ever ever use unconditional excepts, or you hide errors like this (an undefined local).	wagrant	16 years ago
