Description Jesse Glick 2007-06-21 00:52:56 UTC

Some folders, such as Templates, are ordered in part yet contain children, such as Project, which do not need to be
ordered (e.g. because they are hidden from view). If you omit the position attribute on them, you get a spurious
warning. So it is desirable to add some position attribute, yet the actual value is irrelevant (but there should be no
warnings about several such children having the same arbitrary position).

Simple solution is to suppress the warning about multiple children sharing a position in case that position is 0 (zero).

Comment 2 _ rkubacki 2007-06-24 18:58:29 UTC

Personally I do not like this too much. Can't we move all this testing to tests where we can filter all the stuff where
our logging is false warning alarm?

Comment 3 Jesse Glick 2007-06-25 15:03:08 UTC

I am already preparing a commit validation test for folder ordering. (Runs but has a lot of failures yet to be
corrected.) The test just tries to order every folder in SFS and checks for logged warnings. But that is useless for
third-party modules.
