Date: 2018/08/22
Attendee: Momiyama/Chen(AisinAW), Oki(Mazda), Hoshina(Toyota), Koguchi(Hitachi)
Agenda: Design review for Navigation APIs

About P3 of the Document, we will change async to sync for client library.
As binging is sync, we'd like to keep the policy.
Q:How about the other APPs?
A:WindowManager is async. As afb provides only async, we need intergrate the sync mechanism into the client library.

Q:What about the APIs that take long time?
A:API calls will return soon and the result will be informed by event. I think windowmanager also takes this mechanism.

Q:If APIs lock up?
A:I have to say Client will also lock up.

Next week, we'd like to discuss the C++'s class design.
About P6, we are considering MAPBOX for the OSS Navi part.
We'd also like to invite MAPBOX into our EG if possible.

Q:Maybe its better to inform Linux Japan soon if we invite MAPBOX.
A:Yes, we also realize it.

Q:CES demo's display size. Is it wide-pattern?
A:Yes, for Japan Team's demo, we use wide display. We have size info on Redmine.

Q:For meter display we may also need turn-by-turn info from navigation service.
A:OK.

Device API
OpenXC/ODB2 for data analyzation
Data needed for Product NAVI
is our next step.

Q:Will Device API be intergrated into navigation service? We have done this for windowmanager(CAN).
A:Yes.
Q:Can we get all our need for navigation?
A:Yes, low level CAN data will be converted to OpenXC, so you can request what you want.
Q:I think we need to list up all the CAN data we need.
A:Yes, we need to list up it and give our request to CAN side.

Q:Will APIs source be uploaded to github?
A:No, we will use gerrit and the repo has already been prepared.
