| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | = We need to rethink what actions we offer to open a view/transaction = | ||
| + | * This must be related to the repo modes normal|auditing|branching. Generally a view must be configured with branch/time, and a transaction only with branch. If branching is not supported the branch is always the main branch. We shouldn’t offer a way to configure it. | ||

| + | |||
| + | = The view icon should be changed to the CDOSession icon = | ||
| + | * Maybe mirrored horizontally to indicate the REMOTE aspect. | ||
| + | * The CDO Remote Sessions View should have an explicit “Subscribe/Unsubscribe” toggle. Maybe we should call “unsubscribed” as “Do not disturb” mode. That’s more common. On the other hand it not only affects ability to receive messages and state changes, it also affects ability to send messages. You will want to ask me about the details of the remote sessions API ;-) | ||
| + | * The linking with the CDOSessions view seems buggy at the beginning, i.e. viewer disabled until a session is clicked | ||
| + | * If “unsubscribed” show a description text instead of an empty list: | ||
| + | * '''''Here you can collaborate with remote sessions. You must explicitely subscribe to be able to send or receive messages to/from other subscribed sessions. Your subscription status is visible to other sessions.''''' | ||

| + | * [[Image:img41.png]] | ||

| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | = “CDO” should be removed from all labels/tooltips if the context is clear = | ||
| + | * Here from “CDO Sessions”: | ||
| + | * [[Image:img43.png]] | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | = We should configure a credentials provider for session authentication = | ||
| + | * Default should be an interactive CP that opens a userID/password dialog. | ||
| + | * When trying to delete a CDO project in CNF this dialog pops up. | ||
| + | * [[Image:img44a.png]] | ||
| + | * Since I don’t know what it wants to delete I press Cancel. Then the correct dialog appears: | ||
| + | * [[Image:img44b.png]] | ||
| + | * Project will be properly deleted. But Session and views stay open. See “Close Project” issue above. If I then close the left session manually I get an exception in the log'''.''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | = Title and descriptions are odd = | ||
| + | * [[Image:img45.png]] | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | = Description is odd = | ||
| + | * Error message is odd. (not “introduce”) | ||
| + | * Dots missing. | ||
| + | * Maybe “Server Description” should be “Server URL”. | ||
| + | * [[Image:img46.png]] | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | = After creating a “New CDO Project” it shows up like this = | ||
| + | * [[Image:img47.png]] | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | = Add a “Merge…” action to transaction nodes in CDOSessionsView = | ||
| + | * The subsequent dialog is the same as in “Change Target…”. Currently we can choose from three CDOMergers: Default|PerFeature|ManyValued. Later we can contribute other mergers like Interactive. | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | = In CNF, if current view is a transaction, add “Merge from…” action to branch nodes = | ||
| + | * The subsequent dialog is the same as for “Change Target…” (but with branching disabled. I.e. it only shows the time component choices. | ||

-
We need help pages for all UI elements like dialogs
A CDOSession in the sessions view should show the branch tree (see CNF)
- A CDOSession in the sessions view should show the “Packages” node (see CNF).
-
We need to rethink what actions we offer to open a view/transaction
- This must be related to the repo modes normal|auditing|branching. Generally a view must be configured with branch/time, and a transaction only with branch. If branching is not supported the branch is always the main branch. We shouldn’t offer a way to configure it.
- Same for the time in non-auditing repos.

- Add icons to the register package actions. See CNF menu:
-
The action “Load Resource…” seems pointless
- Since the resource structure is shown the user must assume that all resources are already loaded. I suggest to rename the first two actions to “Open Editor on Root Resource” and “Open Editor on Resource…”.
- The “Export Resource…” action should have the export icon.
-
Contribute property sources for CDOViews/CDOTransactions
- Like the ones for CDOSessions.
- Add configurable label decorations for CDOSession and CDOView nodes.
- Offer patterns like these:
-
Change title to “Package Registry”
- Make description nicer “Packages of session [6] on repository “repo1”.”.
-
The view icon should be changed to the CDOSession icon
- Maybe mirrored horizontally to indicate the REMOTE aspect.
- The CDO Remote Sessions View should have an explicit “Subscribe/Unsubscribe” toggle. Maybe we should call “unsubscribed” as “Do not disturb” mode. That’s more common. On the other hand it not only affects ability to receive messages and state changes, it also affects ability to send messages. You will want to ask me about the details of the remote sessions API ;-)
- The linking with the CDOSessions view seems buggy at the beginning, i.e. viewer disabled until a session is clicked
- If “unsubscribed” show a description text instead of an empty list:
- Here you can collaborate with remote sessions. You must explicitely subscribe to be able to send or receive messages to/from other subscribed sessions. Your subscription status is visible to other sessions.
-
Better element icons
- Remote session ID in square brackets (see CDO Sessions view).
- Maybe better: “Session 7 (userID@repoName)” . Omit “userID@” if user unknown/null.
-
The CNF “Sessions” node should display the remote session
- Just like the “CDO Remote Sessions” view.
-
“CDO” should be removed from all labels/tooltips if the context is clear
- Here from “CDO Sessions”:
-
We should configure a credentials provider for session authentication
- Default should be an interactive CP that opens a userID/password dialog.
- When trying to delete a CDO project in CNF this dialog pops up.
-
- Since I don’t know what it wants to delete I press Cancel. Then the correct dialog appears:
-
- Project will be properly deleted. But Session and views stay open. See “Close Project” issue above. If I then close the left session manually I get an exception in the log.
Title and descriptions are odd
Description is odd
- Error message is odd. (not “introduce”)
- Dots missing.
- Maybe “Server Description” should be “Server URL”.
-
After creating a “New CDO Project” it shows up like this
Add a “Merge…” action to transaction nodes in CDOSessionsView
- The subsequent dialog is the same as in “Change Target…”. Currently we can choose from three CDOMergers: Default|PerFeature|ManyValued. Later we can contribute other mergers like Interactive.
In CNF, if current view is a transaction, add “Merge from…” action to branch nodes
- The subsequent dialog is the same as for “Change Target…” (but with branching disabled. I.e. it only shows the time component choices.
The error dialog after failed commits looks awful
- Can currently not be tested as we’re having general problems with conflict handling in the core ;-(
