Description Jan Lahoda 2006-08-04 18:40:24 UTC 
[recent sources]

It seems to me that if a project is added into a group, its display name is used
as a filename for a link/shadow in config/projectGroups/<group-name>/. This is
not correct, as the display name may contain characters that are not allowed in
filenames (like '/' on UNIX).

Please either use some artificial name, or use ProjectInformation.getName()
(please note that the project name is not required to be unique).
Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2006-08-04 22:26:15 UTC 
I have a bunch of projects in groups in my userdir. Up until Jan 26 2006 they
use the display name. Starting Feb 06 they use the folder name, e.g. fs.shadow
for openide/fs. Not sure exactly which versions I was running when, but
apparently this was fixed at some point (cannot find anything wrong w/ original
version of code so not sure when). If you can reproduce with a current build
please reopen.
Comment 2 Jan Lahoda 2006-08-05 09:44:35 UTC 
Ah, sorry, I found the problem: the situation with display names occurs only
when one adds the projects through the "Add Projects to <foo>" dialog. The code
that seems to be using project's display name as name of the shadow is in
PortfoliosTopComponent:624.

Ah, thanks. I had searched for that but for some reason did not find it.
