I was thinking of completing the Report Engine , but somehow the Rule Insertion Module seemed simple enough to be completed first.
So, now i am sitting just thinking over the Rule Insertion Scenario .!

Theres not really much to think of except for the DB Design which has changed once again.

Heres my latest design :

RuleMetaData:

Rule_Meta_data_ID	Rule Description	FLAG_ID
1	Any description about the rule	2

Rule_Set

Rule_set_id	Rule_Meta_data_ID	Field_id	Logic_id	Value
1	1	1	1	mysql.sheeri.com
2	1	2	1	3306

Field:

Field_id	Description
1	Port
2	Hostname

Logic:

Logic_id	Description
1	AND
2	OR

Flag:

Fag_id	Description
1	Use
2	Read

So, Sheeri gave me a handful of rules which i would be using in creating the Rule Creation Module of the Reporting Component.

This is the Db Design which we finally came up with :

Rule:

Rule_ID	Rule Description	FLAG
1	Any description about the rule	USE

Rule_Desc

Rule_desc_id	Rule_ID	Fld	Value	Logic
1	1	hostname	mysql.sheeri.com	AND
2	1	Port	3306	AND

The link to the rule set is :

I should now be able to integrate these requirements with my existing code of Rule Creation Module.
The module should be able to create 1 or many RULES with each RULE having exactly 1 Rule Description.


It should'nt be that hard !

Can you imagine, this is my first ever Blog !
I always hated Blogging and still do.
But then, right after i had a conversation call with Sheeri (my Manager for Google Sumemr of Code) and Warren (My Colleague for the MSYQL Auditing Software which we are working on), i decided to write all the points that i had in a word file.

But then i thought, why not post em up here.
Both ov them had been pushing me hard to go for blogging.
Not to forget that almost 99% of the GSocer's do blogging, with me being the only 1% hating to spend any time on blogging !

Anywayz,
Long Story short, Here i am writing down my first blog in the history of my internet usage !


Gosh...i really dont know wot to write now ..!!
lol
You see, it seems as if i am writing one of those lengthy emails to my girl friends !!
Lets see how this e-gf turns out to be.
