Greetings,

I was wondering, is it possible to wrap lines in the config file ?

I have to add a dropdown lost which is kinda long and typing everything on one line will make ik kinda unreadable.
Somehow wrapping the line so each entry will get on a separate line would make it much better readable. (which
makes less errors).


What I do is to use an editor with automatic wrapping functions, like the free PSPad editor. It nicely wraps line and indicates that:

Hello

I have the following in elog.cfg :

Attributes = Author, Author Email, Category, Customer, server, Subject ,  Change Window Begin , Change Window End
List display = ID,Author, Author Email, Category, Customer, server,  Subject , 
Change Window Begin , Change Window End

Type Change Window Begin = datetime
Type Change Window End = datetime

So I want to be able to give a start and end date to the user.  However : If I open a find/Search I see this :

There are for each  Change Window <item>   we get  Start: and End: time entries. Was expecting only one date entrie .

Why is this ? Seems to be a feature of datetime  or am i missing something.

 

 

Right, that's a feature. Many people want to specify a range when doing a query on a date. Like Change Window Begin after Jan 1st, 2009 and before Jan 5th, 2009. If you just want a single date, set both Start: and End: to the same date, or actually the End: to Start+1 Day to cover all 24 hours of the Start: date. Otherwise when you have data + time, you would have to match the exact second to retrieve a certain entry. So having a range there is more powerful.

Hmmm... I have to use vi and was hoping an \ at the end of the line (before the LF) would be supported.

Use a real editor Wink

I seem to remember that Emacs can be configured for automatic line wrapping.

Hello

I have a config file  :

Attributes = Author, Author Email, Category, Customer, server,HPSD_ID, Cust_ID ,Subject ,  Change Window
; which fields will be shown !!
List display = ID,Author, Category, Customer, server, HPSD_ID, Cust_ID,Subject ,  Change Window

Type Change Window  = datetime
# Type Change Window End = datetime
Options Category = Network , Server ,
Options Customer = Arag{A}, Frieslandbank{B}, Super de Boer{C}, NRE{D}

{A} Options server = arag-lin1,arag-lin2,arag-lin3,arag-lin4, arag-lin5, arag-lin6, arag-lin7
{B} Options server = rc1upas02, rc1upas22,rc1upas03,rc1upas04,rc1uptsm01,rc1upas07,rc1upas08
{C} Options server = xia61031,xia61032 ,xia61033,xia61034,xia61035,xia61036,xia61037,xia61038,xia61039,xia61040,xia61032 ,xia61033,xia61034,xia61035,xia61036,xia61037,xia61038,xia61039,xia61040
{D} Options server = server27,server32,server34 ,server37,server38,server40
Extendable options = Category , Customer,server
Required Attributes = server , customer, Subject, Change window Begin , Change Window End
 

This works OK, However when I change the {A} Options  to {A} Moptions in the above code i get an error which tells me that a required field is not selected. So, with the pull down it works, with Moptions ( select boxes )  it will say that a required field is not selected.  Any hints ?

regards Arno

Thanks for reporting this bug. I fixed it in SVN revisoin 2213.

Hello !

Is any posibility to  set  quick filter, for fields with atribute "date", to exactly value, like 15/07/2009, instead of drop menu with values like - last day, last week, etc ?

Tnx in advance !

No, this is not imlemented. But you can go to the "Find" page, and select the "Start" and "End" date with the calendar picker tool. This are a few more clicks to do, but puttting this all into the quick filter would not fit there.
