 16 Dec 2013, Konstantin Olchanski, Info, MIDAS on ARM

I added MIDAS Makefile rules for building ARM binaries: "make linuxarm" and "make cleanarm" will create
(and clean) object files, libraries and executables under "linux-arm" using the TI Sitara ARM SDK or the
Yocto SDK ARM cross-compilers (GCC 4.7.x and 4.8.x respectively). (Makefile rules for building PPC

31 Jan 2014, Stefan Ritt, Info, Separation of MSCB subtree
|
Since several projects at PSI need MSCB but not MIDAS, I decided to separate the two repositories. So if you
need MIDAS with MSCB support inside mhttpd, you have to clone MIDAS, MXML and MSCB from bitbucket
(or the local clone at TRIUMF) as described in

 12 Feb 2014, Stefan Ritt, Info, Custom page header implemented
|
As reported in the bug tracker, the proposed header does not work if no specific (= different from the default 60 sec.) update period is specified,
since then no cookie is present. Here is the updated code which works for all cases:

|
I am not sure what to do with the javascript snippet - I understand it should be somehow connected to /Custom/Header, but if I create the /Custom/Header
string, I cannot put this snippet
into this string using odbedit - if I try to cut&paste it into odbedit, it is truncated to the first line - nor using the mhttpd odb editor - when I cut&paste |

Just read elog:908, it tells you to put this into a file, name it header.html for example, and put into the ODB:

I made a few minor modifications to the ODB JSON encoder and implemented a javascript "ls" function to
report full ODB directory information as available from odbedit "ls -l" and the mhttpd odb editor page.

12 Mar 2014, Andreas Suter, Info, Windows support droped?
|
In the old SVN midas world it was typically such that the Windows dll's and
exe's were ready to be used when checking out. I am not so sure this is the case
for the current version, since when I use the packed dll's and exe's (e.g.

We have tested operation of MIDAS using a 10GigE network connection. Using a dummy frontend
generating fake data, we can record MIDAS data to disk at at least 700 Mbytes/sec as reported by
the MIDAS status page.

The SSL certificate for https://midas.triumf.ca has been resigned with SHA256 to fix the complaint from google-chrome about SHA1-signed certificate -
SHA1 signatures are now considered to be insufficiently secure, have to be replaced by SHA256.
