Implementing UNDO command

Community Bonding

  • Set up the blog and wiki
  • Decide on which approach to implement UNDO

Development Plan

  • Week 1: Decide architecture and create the required files to have an undo cmd
    • Add files to libged, make changes in Cmake files and decide on space/location to store the temporary data being generated. Write documentation on how the undo command is going to be implemented and how it will work.
  • Week 2: Start implementing the UNDO logic
    • Check for different commands like kill, make and other basic commands for proper compatibility with the UNDO command.
  • Week 3: Continue the implementation
    • Start working and testing for complicated commands like dbconcat which deal with overwriting, creating new objects and deleting multiple objects. In the partial + events method this might take more time as splitting commands into events is a big task.
  • Week 4: Get a basic review and start testing
    • Take inputs from my mentor on current progress and how I could improve the code. Write tests for various cases and check robustness.
  • Week 5: Continue testing and optimizing code
  • Week 6: Work on further optimizations / Account for unforeseen delays
    • I will keep this week as a buffer.
  • Week 7: Optimizations to UNDO
    • Depending on the method chosen, work on improving the time/space complexity of the implementation.
  • Week 8: Document work and issues faced
  • Week 9: Prepare for final evaluations
