Subject: WEEK 19 Objectionary

Hi all,

Last week achievements:
jeo-maven-plugin:
- Added concurrency support for disassembly/assembly goals to speed up integration test by 2 times [#578]
- First attempt to localize AllLabels usage by introducing a centralized class to manage method labels efficiently [#244]
- Optimized bytesToHex method for efficient byte to hexadecimal conversion [#578]
- Fixed bug related to handling char values in annotations and added support for char data type conversion [#576]
- Simplified XML comparison in 'disabled' integration test by updating comparison logic to directly compare XML files [#228]

opeo-maven-plugin:
- Added 'disabled' configuration to switch 'spring-fat' test and introduced Storage abstraction to separate decompilation/compilation logic from working with the file system [#219]

Next week plans:
jeo-maven-plugin:
- To solve the performance issue causing OutOfMemoryError during the disassemble phase in the spring-fat integration test [#578]
opeo-maven-plugin:
- To enable the Opeo Spring Fat Integration Test by fixing failing test steps and adding it to the merge workflow [#229]
- To add PHI printing to the 'spring-fat' integration test using the xmir-to-phi goal of the eo-maven-plugin [#226]
- To enable Bytecode Verification for the Spring Fat Integration Test to ensure correctness of transformation [#220]
- To add attributes to the Super class for defining 'descriptor' and 'interfaced' operands of the INVOKESPECIAL opcode [#209]
- To remove the 'appendInterfaced' method from Opcode to address optimization implementation issues [#208]
- To fix the 'staticize' optimization by ensuring the 'interfaced' attribute is added to specific methods [#207]

Risks:
jeo-maven-plugin:
- The code in the repository is suboptimal, leading to potential future maintainability issues [#44].
- The server may fail to deliver the dataset, risking missing the report milestone [#487].

opeo-maven-plugin:
- The XML file comparison logic was simplified in the 'disabled' integration test, improving test accuracy [#228].
- There is a risk of failing to deliver the dataset, potentially impacting the report milestone [#487].
