### Analysis
|
||||
> Will you use data abstraction? How?
|
||||
|
||||
TCP communication will be abstracted away so will only deal with Hermes
|
||||
definition of a message.
|
||||
We will try to encrypt the messages passed around. The encryption will be
|
||||
abstracted away so we only have to think about it once during implementation
|
||||
|
||||
> Will you use recursion? How?
|
||||
|
||||
The server will continually loop waiting for connections from clients.
|
||||
The Gui will continually loop to handle input with the user, and to and fro
|
||||
Hermes.
|
||||
|
||||
> Will you use map/filter/reduce? How?
|
||||
> Will you use map/filter/reduce? How?
|
||||
|
||||
Map will be used for dealing editor area of clients.
|
||||
|
||||
> Will you use object-orientation? How?
|
||||
|
||||
Keeping account of the number of clients will require an object of some sort.
|
||||
With procedures to increment and decrement the number of users
|
||||
|
||||
> Will you use functional approaches to processing your data? How?
|
||||
|
||||
The communication part of Hermes is over tcp which uses a lot of functional
|
||||
approaches e.g. you start a listener which you can then pass to tcp accept.
|
||||
The result of tcp accept are two pairs of ports which we can then bind to some
|
||||
variables.
|
||||
|
||||
> Will you use state-modification approaches? How? (If so, this should be encapsulated within objects. `set!` pretty much should only exist inside an object.)
|
||||
|
||||
State-modification will be used e.g. keeping count of logged in users requires
|
||||
state modification via set! to maintain the true user account
|
||||
|
||||
> Will you build an expression evaluator, like we did in the symbolic differentatior and the metacircular evaluator?
|
||||
|
||||
Users will type their input into a text field from the GUI. We will retrieve
|
||||
the command and evaluate it to see if its a message, or a command to change
|
||||
GUI state. We will do something that resembles the metacircular evaluator.
