SleepyHead: Updated Version 0.7-4229 Alpha

[robysue]

Mac is go on PRS1.. We just need a fresh build. Troy & Jimbo are now running Mac builds and following source code from git.. (They can both attest to how difficult it was configuring the build environment) Both however are ResMed users and can only play with my data.. I'll ask Troy if he can post a slightly more up to date Mac binary.

Is the Mac stuff only available as source code, or will there be a package to download that installs itself, like the .exe file on Windows?

And---if Troy and Jimbo need that BiPAP Auto data I sent you to debug the anything for Mac support of the PR S1 BiPAPs, please send it along to them!

I'm impressed--and grateful--for all the work the team has done.

I love the idea that oximetry could be integrated. My Contec 50E has an option of setting the time in 24-hr format before recording. Would that help synchronize the data?

Can't get it to work, it hangs after trying to import data. I see the window with the progress bar, seems to load all data very quickly, and then doesn't do anything and all menus stay inactive.
Maybe it doesn't like:
- french version of xp
- french time zone
- french regional settings
- french user
I'll change my regional settings when I have a bit more time (probably not until next week).

Great idea.. Comparisons against Encore will help find bugs and make both SleepyHead & Onkor better products for everybody..

It's done. A true novel in the works. Hopefully got all the proper screen shots.

I have not been as frequent at posting here as some but am working away in the background testing things on the Mac and passing information along. The app has been developed to behave the same, and offer an almost identical user experience (some bugs differ) on Linux, Windows, and Mac operating systems. The Mac build process is a bit lagging as it was only last weekend that things actually got to a point that a full build could be accomplished using the Apple compiler. There has been some minor Mac related cleanup and on this coming weekend I will upload a new application bundle, so it can be ran without having to build from scratch, for Mac users to test out as long things don't get broken too badly before then.

There is quite a bit of new things to get added to the application, and the ResMed data handling is one of my top priorities. Unfortunately my day job seems to get in the way of me having fun working on things as much as I would like, but my wife and I have the bad habit of wanting to eat and we have grown to appreciate having a roof over our heads so the day job that must take priority as well.

I've seen some good comments and it is nice to see that people are glad to start seeing some options in how they can look at their data. I do hope that the growing pains of a shiny new application that is still very much a work in progress does not cause anyone to feel that things will never be ready for general use.

Yes.. In those cases It does read the time field.. When I wrote the code, I didn't know if any models used it.. But figured some might, so parsed it properly anyway.

It won't automatically sync just yet..

Later on I will set it to try to force a link when the oximeter does bother to provide a time field, only if the time overlap between them (cpap & oximeter) is neat enough.

I need a new oximeter, my povo 50D+ won't be able to do this (unless I log via USB)

The PRS1 data import hang has been located.. Troy found and fixed that bug, so next version should work.

Sleepyhead foundation is multilingual.. It will have support for other languages provided someone writes the translations (I've gotta learn how the tool works).
I speak no French and would probably end up insulting you if I tried

Timezones are fine as long as your operating system is set to the right one. Internal data is handled in UTC.

There will be a few date areas that need fixing to locale formatting. I'd appreciate if you could screenshot and circle/or otherwise point out exactly where it's wrong for you.

Problem with French users? Nope. I'm only allowed to make fun of Aussies and the Dutch.

Thank you Jedimark, that's great!!
I'll try the next version and outline on a screenshot if anything seems weird.
I can help with the french translations.

Hi,

A new windows build #4229..

See the first post of this thread for details on where to get it.

Featuring:
Some mouse control improvements..
The little green bar underneath is more than pretty now. Click on it and drag it from one side to the other of all that days data.. Left/Right click on it without moving the mouse to zoom in/out.
Linked CPAP graphs. Try it.. If your computer is too slow, you can dumb it down with an option in the View menu.
A serious Import loader hang fixed (which happened if you had any other files than PRS1 stuff) Thanks Troy.

It is no longer necessary to delete the SleepApp folder when changes are made to the internal database format. Changes are now versioned as they should have been in the first place.
When the machine data record is older than the new programs loader version, It presents an MessageBox asking if you want to automatically purge the old machine data from SleepApp folder, so you can import it again without problems.
If you only have one PRS1 data card/source, you don't have to click yes. Just import again and it will overwrite and update it's old files.. It's better to Click yes though and do the cleanup first..
If you click no, you can safely exit out and still run an old version.

Bugs? Plenty..

I've been focusing on the Daily tab the last few days, so the poor Summary tab is being neglected.. It still works.. but nothing new apart from the improvements to the graph controls. There will be some glitches with empty data.
I'll start focusing on that when Daily tab is solid and awesome.

yAxis Ticks could be improved a bit. The tickers (both X & Y) are pretty darn complex little suckers..

Plenty of other things. I'm particularly interested in data accuracy issues.. Please report them when you find them..

Enjoy..

Now I feel stupid. That's claered it up for me

I'm very interested in trying this out, but whenever I try to download it Microsoft security essentials goes haywire. Why is there a trojan/keylogger of some kind in this program?

No.. It's built with wxWidgets and mingw.. You can check the source code..

On Windows, It is packed with UPX executable packer to make it smaller to download..
Some security programs unfortunately don't like this as asshats package their crapware and hide it this way.

Edit: My sole reason for using the open source UPX software, is it would be a 10mb download vs just a 2mb one.

ps.. If your going to post something implying that I'm distributing crapware, please have the decency to log in first otherwise no-one will take you seriously..
My code is open to review by anyone.. Nothing de-motivates an open-source developer like implying they have sinister purposes or an ulterior motive.
(Do you work for Respironics? Encore sucks, and I'm providing a free alternative.. Get over it.)

You are correct in your anger, sir. I was hasty with my words and could have phrased my post better. Perhaps the mods will do us a favor and remove it. Upon further review, your program is excellent. I thank you for your service to this community and hope I have caused you no burden of mind. Perhaps a small blurb addressing this issue could be pasted somewhere so that others may not make the mistake that I have.

No worries.. Us programmer types get a bit defensive about our hard work..

That's a good idea.. This project is in an raw alpha state, a "developer preview".. so what you see now in no way reflects the final product.. It may very well end up having the usual installer, it's just very easy this way to get out to testers..

I personally prefer UPX packed binaries considering the amount of disk space they save.. (Trust me, you don't even want to know how big a windows Debug build of this project can get)

By the way, please don't be offended by this, but as an IT guy, I would like to recommend you consider security product that actually works.. "Microsoft" and "Security" are two words that generally don't belong in the same sentence.. Let's just say they don't have a very good track record.

You can compile our project yourself with MingW & wxWidgets & CodeBlocks to avoid this issue.. Not an easy process, but we are open source, and anyone is welcome to build it / review our code..
