Good news. Todays letter from Dr. Anderson

I made the fix but it won't appear until the next client release.

Yeah, but that isn't in the present 6.12.26 that's just been released.
BOINC XML is pseudo XML developed especially for BOINC. It's XML with extra rules, but it cannot be compared to, for instance, MS XML.

I understand but this pseudo XML easy parsed standard Microsoft.XMLDOM object.

If anybody advanced in Javascript please tell me. I have some trouble. Mayby anybody can help me....

Version 6.0 - Fixed work with wrong client_state.xml file. Added new setting. Added new projects. Remove old projects.

Version 8.0 has been released.
New:
1. Add new calculation method. Thanks for idea Richard Haselgrov
2. Allow show active WUs only. (Requested by KraftR)

[...] I still think file-scraping is the wrong way to go for the long term. [...]

Igogo, until you consider leaving the file-scraping way and take the RPC way, you should at least let the Monitor remember the client_state.xml's and boinc_task_state.xml's time-stamps and check them against the files prior to opening and reading them again.

Pepo can you help me with RPC way?

Pepo can you help me with RPC way?

Hmmmm...
If you let me know, how to debug JavaScript (or how is it exactly called) and how to open a network connection in it? I might try.

My programming experience is in a different area, but I managed to get RPC running in Visual Basic 6, so I can help with the logic - the two documentation pages I linked in the other thread aren't exactly transparent. As Pepo says, the first stage is working out how to open a network socket in your development language.

@ both - we probably ought to move this conversation away from the News area.

Let me do something for my job-tag. Moved to the original thread.

Good move, Jord.

I've been helping with modifying BOINCphpGUI a couple of years ago and trying to communicate with client over PuTTY (and Ethereal) a year or two before that. Sad that it will probably not be able to use BOINC's lib, or will it?

My "greatest" experience with .js ever is from some month ago - an attempt to shorten BOINCMonitor's progress bars (OK), add one more color definition and category to differentiate between in-memory and not-in-memory preempted tasks (failed), adding nVcuda image and tooltips with app name/number to all CUDA tasks (somehow OK)... I've always been locking my desktop for a couple of tens of minutes with unresponsible sidebar.exe striving for even more memory :-D

Guys! Thank you for trying to help me.
I finding how I can connect to TCP port using JavaScript.
Maybe some person can write wrapper for my gadget if I can't find solution.
Maybe wrapper best solution. I don't know now.
Please wait some days....

Guys! I investigate problem. In Javascript I can't use sockets. I think better way for use RPC - if some guy write special wrapper on C# or other language with sockets. If anybody can do this and WANT do this please call me for details. Thank you for help. I hope together we do BOINC Monitor perfect.
Thank you all for good suggestion.
Thank you in advance for wrapper.
