Changes

Just going to expand more features on Attachment Reminder Bug. Make it more user friendly so that a . One of the ways to make it user friendly is to allow user can to add new words to itkeywords which Thunderbird will look for in the body of the email.

== Lab 0.4: Building Thunderbird on Vista with Visual Studio 2008 Attachment Reminder ==I forgot to write about this one. If you need to read more about this click [http://cdpatel1.blogspot.com/2009/01/attachment-reminder-04.html[here]].

== 0.5 Attachment Reminder==In this release I have blogged about it addressed all the issues raised in the [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=244455#c33[comment]].I would encourage more and more people to download my [http://www.geocities.com/chinmay_patel@ymail.com/attachmentreminderPatcho5Beta.txt[patch]] and provide me some feedback. Moreover, I have created a [http://zenit.senecac.on .ca/wiki/index.php/User:Cdpatel1#Suggestion_BOX[suggestion box]] in my blog profile page. If you want help or reference, you can go feel free to the link below and look at edit it.

http== 0.6 (Attachment Reminder + LIBNOTIFY) ==This is a combined release of two BUGs://cdpatel1Attachment Reminder and LIBNOTIFY Notifications.blogspotI think, this could be the last patch for Attachment reminder.com/2008/09/building-firefox-and-thunderbird-onBut, I am open to work more if needed.html

== Lab 5 : Finding 3 Interesting Bugs 0.7 Attachment Reminder + LIBNOTIFY + Tango Icons ==These are the 3 This release was a mix of three bugs that are not perfectly related to my project but still somewhat related to it. Here they are [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=244455[Attachment reminder bug]], [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=478463[Libnotify bug]] and [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=483777[Tango Icons Bug]].

It looks like, the Thunderbird community doesn't need the integration of LIBNOTIFY at the moment. I have submitted couple of patches to the [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=232500478463[bug]], but it has no more requirement. Eventually, I have to drop the bug.

Moreover, I am going through my worst period in the [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=448971244455[Attachment Reminder]] bug because I am not having any work done. I am submitting the patches but it doesn't apply properly. They say that it the patch is bitrotten. What else can be happen if I they are checking the patch after the 2 weeks of upload date? But, I can certainly understand their busy schedule and try my best to get work done.

My prospect bug is [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=349547483777[Tango Icons bug]]. Currently, I don't have any idea what is going on with that bug. I only know that I am going to do that bug.

== Lab 0.8 Attachment Reminder + Tango Icons ==0.8 is the combined release for [https: Modifying Thunderbird With extension Lab //bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=244455[Attachment Reminder Bug]] and [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=483777[Tango Icons Bug]].

For the [[Imagehttps:addtabbeside//bugzilla.xpimozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=244455[Attachment reminder bug]], I am getting somewhat impatience. I am trying my best and still not be able to get it done. Improper apply of the patch and building errors for the patch are killing me. I am not getting the reason why my patches are creating so much issues in other machines? I guess, I have to create the patch and ask David Humphrey, if he can apply my patch and build Thunderbird. Hopefully, next will be my last patch.

== Lab 9 [https: FIRSTXPCOM =//bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=483777[Tango Icons bug]] is the most interesting bug for me. It contains some user interface stuffs that I like the most. In this bug, I have to apply the patch created by Andreas Nilsson, one of the community member, and make the patch compatible to the hg mercurial. In this bug, I have learned about combination of CSS, XUL and images in Thunderbird code.

[[Image:firstxpcom_ChinmayCurrently, I feel that I am getting all sorts of experience in the Thunderbird code. Instead of feeling overwhelmed, I am feeling more satisfied and versatile. After working on all these bugs, I am more confident that I will be able to handle everything that comes to me in terms of coding.zip]]

= Contribution Done= Final Release ==Patrick: I am so glad to announce that my Attachment reminder bug is complete. I just got the review+ from Megnus Malin. Now, I am just waiting for the UI review? I guess, there should not be any problem. Let us see how does it go?

1Plus, I have submitted a patch on the Tango Icons Integration Bug and asked for review. Provided him In this bug, I have merged the icons into big images for the data that he wanted performance purpose. Now, just waiting for his researchthe review.

6. Debug Hopefully, I will get the makefileconfirmation before my presentation on Friday.

Made automated shell scriptIt gave us a main idea, "if the code is already written, don't waste your time in re-writing it. Just Copy and Paste it !!!"

James (== Navigating the Mozilla source tree ==For navigation in Mozilla tree, I got a great tool called DOM inspector. It helped me lot in exploring Thunderbird Schedulertree. DOM inspector is the best, as far as I know, tool to have a reference for Object Model. I have blogged about how to use it but it didn't show up on the Seneca Planet.

Slokunshialgo & Sid : Checked == Chrome ==I am so sorry for not doing this lab. I am planning to do my extension0.33 release, not 0.3 release, in place of this lab. Basically, both things are working with XUL stuffs. Hence, it is better to do some 'real' stuff in place of this lab.
