Hi
1.Developing a Calendar Application
- I will learn about Haiku API
- Creating Applications in Haiku
- Will of coarse brush by C++ skills
- but I doubt that if I will be able to complete this project as I am
new to Haiku API and Advanced C++.
You should check out Eventual [1], it is quite far along but has been
abandoned and does not compile correctly after Haiku's package management,
it needs design Improvements and conversion to the layout API. You can find
a design overview [2] and other documents that might be of help on the net
[3].
You can also find the more basic applications Organizer [4] and A-Book [5],
which might be of interest.
2.Improving 3rd party Applications
- Same points but this will help me get started into Haiku API
- and also I am quite sure that I will be able to complete this project
- I believe fixing issues, updating applications to use layout
management will buildup my skills enough to take up another project for
Haiku after the end of my first year (College days are best, you get a lot
of time to contribute to Open Source & learn apart from the books).
It would be better to focus on a single larger application with a bigger
codebase, than on lots of smaller applications. You could pick Eventual as
mentioned above or work on UltraDV [6] with Dario (Barrett17). There is
also Paladin [7], ArtPaint [8], Becasso [9], Pe [10] and Sequitur [11] that
are bigger projects that need some TLC.
You could also backport Binder to Haiku [12], which you can read about on
OSNews [13] and in its online documentation [14]. You can also find
information about Google's implementation called AndroidBinder on the web,
which might be helpful when working on HaikuBinder.
Regards,
Richard.
