Description Jesse Glick 2005-09-20 01:09:02 UTC 
The UI spec has the "Modules" list in the Sources panel, yet the impl has it in
the Libraries panel for some reason.
Comment 1 Martin Krauskopf 2005-09-20 04:07:38 UTC 
Ups, true indeed. Isn't this typo rather in the UI spec. I think that users
would rather try to find this in the Libraries panel than in the Source panel.
Since there is light pararelism with Single Module properties. Please Jesse
consider this.
Comment 2 Jesse Glick 2005-09-20 04:15:36 UTC 
The UI spec is intentionally the way it is, since modules in a suite are not
"libraries" the way classpath elements are - they are part of the "source" of
the suite. At least to my mind. Jano, any opinion?
Comment 3 Martin Krauskopf 2005-09-20 04:20:19 UTC 
Jano, please note, that it is not really a big problem to move the list from
Libraries(current) to the Source(UI) panel. So just really the UI/usability
issue, not laziness or developer's time issue ;)
Comment 4 jrojcek 2005-09-21 16:46:44 UTC 
Hmm, looking at it more, I see we have a selection of platform modules as well, which is in the Build | 
Module List panel. This is what I think fits better into the Libraries panel. So, can we do the following...?

* Move the current Modules list from the Libraries panel into the Sources panel. And label the list with 
"Suite Modules:" label.
* Get rid of the Module List panel and move the tree table into the Libraries panel. And use "Platform 
Modules:" label with the tree table.
Comment 5 Jesse Glick 2005-09-21 23:07:09 UTC 
I think that makes a lot of sense. I will take that into account when updating
the specs.
Comment 6 Jesse Glick 2005-09-23 00:19:01 UTC 
See new specs.
Comment 7 Martin Krauskopf 2005-09-23 10:27:39 UTC 
Fixed. BTW Jardo, this means that the Libraries panel is ready (free) for your
Module List panel. See the UI spec.
