Community Bonding: April 25-May 22

• Studied swig's development documentation, particularly the sections on extending swig to support new languages.
• Skimmed over implementation of a few modules. (PHP, Python and JS)
• Set up repo and started out with basic skeleton.

Coding Week 1: May 23-May 29

• Added support for constants of primitive types
• Started out with functions
• implemented and tested basic functions (will later configure test suite)

Coding Week 2: May 30-June 5

• Handled default parameters of primitive types. (Will have to reiterate on this)
• Scrapped previous functions model in support of swig's default dispatch function.
• Trying to modify existing dispatch mechanism
• Added custom dispatch mechanism (Will have to reiterate on this, depending on the feedback)
• Basic overloading mechanism complete

Coding Week 3: June 6-June 12

• Started on configuring test suite and examples
• Examples configured and set to make on make-examples and make-hhvm-examples
• Configured examples: simple and overloading (function).
• Used default variable and global variable handler to handle them.
• Started out on classes, stuck on handling class pointer (and the approach to wrap classes)

Coding Week 4: June 13-June 19

• After rounds of discussions on various approaches, implemented a small wrapping class for pointers.
• Used swig's proxy class approach to wrap classes.

Coding Week 5: June 20-June 26

• On a small leave (Graduation)
• Classes: restructured to fix some bugs

Coding Week 6: June 27-July 3 (Midterm deadline June 27)

• Static methods and variables
• Restructured dispatch function's code gen to support overloaded methods
• Handled a few corner cases of overloading global functions
• Implemented overloaded methods

Coding Week 7: July 4-July 10

• Inheritance skeleton implemented
• Class example added
• Implemented References for basic data-types
• Implemented handling of objects as parameters

Coding Week 8: July 11-July 17

• Reimplemented pointers to be handled like references
• Implemented pass by reference for Objects
• Implemented returning of Objects from functions (this took much longer than expected because of segfaults)
• Added Value and Reference Examples

Coding Week 9: July 18-July 24

• Changed accessors to be handled inline. (using php magic methods)
• Changed accessors again to be handled using HHVM prophandlers.
• Updated and tested all the examples to pass with above changes.

Coding Week 10: July 25-July 31

• Added special handling for member constants.
• Added support for global enums.
• Added support for member enums.
• Added examples.
• Started with typewrapper classes.

Coding Week 11: August 1-August 7

• Implemented class caching.
• Completed typewrapper classes (similar to Java and C# typewrappers)
• Added typemaps for std::string
• Set up test-suite, enlist failing test-cases
• Fixed several bugs to get some test cases to pass

Coding Week 12: August 8-August 14

• On Leave for relocation (informed olly on irc)
• Re-implemented overloading to use swig's overload dispatch
• Fixed bugs for examples and a few more test cases to pass
