06:47 < conseo> mcallan: you say that i should access the storage class (DiffMessageTable) through Cache like you did in Count.
06:49 < conseo> you have also added a PollView to the CountTable class, am i supposed to add this View as well?
06:49 < conseo> i don't understand its concept yet
07:27 < conseo> i can default the view to a poll based one for now as well, if this is reasonable...
17:26 < mcallan> conseo: i only showed that as an example of a java api that also had a web api, and how the two are *similar*.  i only want you to understand the importance of the two apis being similar, and the web api not accessing the cache (=database) directly, but through the cache api exclusively
17:28 < mcallan> in other words, the remote gwt programmer who uses the cache's web api, and the local java programmer who uses the cache's java api, will be using much the same api.  this is the goal
17:34 < mcallan> (btw Count is not primary api onto the count engine, CountTable (and esp. CountTable.PollView) is).  in truth it should be called VoteServer, because that is what it is (and VoteServer itself is just a big mess that i have to clean up someday!)
17:38 < mcallan> (ignore the last, i haven't had coffee yet.  the vote-server is really just the store of uncounted votes = InputTable)
