Application Screenshots are mentioned at the end of this blog file

Objective

• To allow user to create room and schedule meeting using them

Languages Used

• Java
• GSON (using this to generate JSON file which is used as DB)

Features

• Add a room with max accommodation capacity
• Remove and view the created room info
• Schedule room and view the scheduled room info
• Export room info so that it can be later imported (since this pgm does not use db to store values. GSON is used here to store info)
• Import room info from recently exported room information (GSON is used here.)

Concepts I Newly Learnt & Practiced

• GSON
• Static code analysis
• Junit
• Use Files as DB (here JSON using GSON) instead of Relational DBs

Tasks 

• Add the ability to import and export the meeting, room, and schedule data to JSON a file or files, so that one can save and restore data entered from each program execution.
• Harden and enhance the program to handle errors so that the program will not crash or fail, no matter what the user does. “Make the program idiot proof.”
• Add conflict checking to scheduling a room.
• Add comments using Javadoc tools and guideline
• Run static tool analysis and correct stuffs
• Correct issues in repo reported Issues in RoomScheduler
• Documenting all the stuffs I did so far
• Resolving any issues reported

Future Code

• Little tweaks
• File Download functionalities
• Data editing functionalities
• Moving from console to better GUI
