mcq8 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Description: After the bench session, it often happens there are a lot of scores. Uploading them all can be quite a drag, so it would be easier if all that can happen at once. This application should allow mass-submission of results. - User - Hardware - Scores - Verification (screenshot or verificationlink) The application does not auto-valid scores and points are awarded only when the score is uploaded. Sketch: This is really a first brainstorm. This will probably change a lot. Language: c#.net 4.0 WPF to do some graphical magic. Already started developing? No, even the analysis isn’t done yet. what kind of help you need? Programmers who want to help can help. Svn will be provided. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psynapse Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I can help. Using Blend to generate the XAML isn't my strong point, but I can make it functional if someone else can make it pretty. I'd also recommend hosing it on GitHub. It's infinitely better source control than SVN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinster Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 This would be amazing after a weekend bench session... I can't code worth a damn anymore, so unfortunately I can't help but I love the idea. Vin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingFishy Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 I'd be happy to help with what I can, but I don't really meet any of the qualifications needed. I know Java and c++ if that helps now or in the future. I'm also quite good at photoshop if you need some graphics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psynapse Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 If you architect this properly, it should be possible to use the same model and view model source to target not only a Windows build, but also Android and iPhone (using MonoDroid and MonoTouch respectively). I've done it for MonoDroid. I'm also happy to use my GitHub account to host it, though there's no real need - GitHub is free for open source projects.

mcq8 Posted June 25, 2011 Author Share Posted June 25, 2011 It may be possible to port it to a smartphone, but is there any need for that? Will users want to add scores using a smartphone with a limited screensize. There is a lot of info to fill in and you should be able to add a screenshot or validationfile to the score.

TiN Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Opensource FTW But how you will handle system settings thru submissions? Usually scores have different clocks/settings/etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Hm. Add a "system preset" feature that allows users to config their entire system and then link scores to it afterwards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcq8 Posted June 25, 2011 Author Share Posted June 25, 2011 The first step would be to just fill it in as you would on the site. The next step is to use profiles to auto complete some fields. Ideal would be to use ocr to read the data from a screenshot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a lot of info to fill in and you should be able to add a screenshot or validationfile to the score. Quite possibly not. I guess I'm just thinking more from an OO design purist point of view. It's a good test of sound design and correct pattern adherence for code modules to be independently portable. The other thing to consider is longevity of the code assets. There's a bit of debate about the future of WPF and Silverlight given what people have seen of Windows 8 and how Microsoft has been shunting teams around. We just wouldn't want to couple any model functionality with a specific UI implementation... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GENiEBEN Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 If there's enough "audience" for this kind of tool i can help you, or even fork a new one. Ideas, suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chi11ed Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 I can assist here, I have a good couple years in C#, Not 100% sure on working with the API's but im guessing its prettyy much just a web service well be connecting to. Sounds like a really great project though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Witte Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Open source, are you not creating vulnerabilities then, anyone can just use the line that says "upload" data and throw into a worm/virus/...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
