Re: [ptp-dev] PTFw: two tool XML questions


Wyatt,

Thank you for the clarification on this - it makes complete sense now.

Yes, if you extend the xml file the new components will show up and
use the default values in existing configurations.  Any values already
saved in existing configurations will keep their saved values.

Ah, that makes sense actually. You don't want to "restore defaults" and
reread xml default values all the time, that would lose the user input.
If there are new parameters in the XML will it pick up those, with new
default values?
Perhaps we need a "restore defaults" button which *would* reread the xml and
reset everything.

Re: [ptp-dev] PTFw: two tool XML questions
It's actually not a bug (It's a feature, yay!).  Once you make a new
configuration and apply or close that configuration its values will be
saved.  The values in the saved configuration will stay the same until
they are manually changed, so long as they map to values specified in
the xml file.  So the configuration with the checked option wasn't
loading it from an old version of the xml, it was loading a state it
had saved earlier.  The defaults in the xml file only apply when the
configuration is first created.

That's interesting, as I had already realized the potential for a "refresh
problem."  I did try actually copying the XML into a new file, and
selecting
that file in the "Performance Tool Configuration" interface.

However it looks like things may not truly get refreshed unless one makes
a
new launch configuration - unless, as you say, we are missing a step.

Either way, this clears things up for now.

Maybe Wyatt can remind us how to force a refresh on the same one, or
perhaps this is a bug.
