Gnatsweb 4 ChangeLog
- To: gnats-devel at sources dot redhat dot com
- Subject: Gnatsweb 4 ChangeLog
- From: Yngve Svendsen <yngve dot svendsen at clustra dot com>
- Date: Wed, 08 Aug 2001 15:03:12 +0200
Major work has been done on Gnatsweb in the last few weeks, and several
much-requested features have been added (a top-of-the-page navigation bar
and logout functionality among them). I believe that we're now almost
feature-complete with respect to what I plan to put into Gnatsweb 4.0. The
current version number is now 3.97. Please note that this version of
Gnatsweb will only work with GNATS 4.
Gnatsweb development is hosted at the savannah.gnu.org CVS repository, but
since version 3.97 represents a bit of a milestone, it has also been
committed to the contrib directory of the head branch of the GNATS
repository at sources.redhat.com. See http://sources.redhat.com/gnats/ for
further information on how to get GNATS 4 from CVS.

ChangeLog since last posting to this list about two weeks ago:
2001-08-08 Yngve Svendsen <yngve.svendsen@clustra.com>
* gnatsweb.pl: ($VERSION): Change to 3.97 -- we're nearly
4.0 feature-complete now.
* gnatsweb.pl: Replace the Login Again functionality with a Log
Out function:
- Replace all occurences of "login again" with "logout".
- (main_page): Change the "Login Again" label to "Log Out / Change
Database".
- (cmd_logout): New subroutine. Clears the db_prefs cookie and
redirects the user to the login page.
- (main): Call cmd_logout instead of going directly to login_page.
* gnatsweb.pl: Add a navigation bar just below the page banner:
- $site_button_background and $site_button_foreground. New
variables initialized to black and white resp.
- (page_start_html): Rewrite to display button bar and generally
clean up the code, with clearer style declarations.
- (login_page): Call page_start_html with an additional parameter
set to '1'. Prevents the button bar from being displayed on this
page.
2001-08-07 Yngve Svendsen <yngve.svendsen@clustra.com>
* gnatsweb.pl (download_attachment): Fix a syntax error which
prevented attachment downloading from working properly.
* Cleanup to get rid of strict warnings:
gnatsweb.pl: Change initial definition of
$no_create_without_access from undef to ''.
- (submitedit, main, mark_urls, display_query_results, unparsepr):
Add some || '' constructs. Fixes a bunch of 'uninitialized
value' warnings.
- (param2field): Correctly translate 'PR' to 'Number'. Remove
warn statement as it makes little sense with GNATS 4
configurable fields.
2001-07-26 Yngve Svendsen <yngve.svendsen@clustra.com>
* gnatsweb.pl (display_query_results): Use cellspacing 0 and
cellpadding 1. Makes table a tad more readable.
* gnatsweb.pl (page_start_html): Redesign the banner. Different
typeface, different size. This is done so that we no longer need
to keep separate styles based on browser and platform - things
will look fairly similar across the board.
- Also, we now print user and access level info in the banner
itself, along with the database name.
- (page_heading): Stop printing user and access level info in the
heading (it now appears in the banner). We now print the page
heading inside a simple <H1>, instead of in a table. This makes
for cleaner HTML and less space between heading and page content.
- Remove the third parameter in calls to page_heading. This used
to control whether to print user and access info in the page
heading.
