Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 999
move forms module to project dba
Last modified: 2003-12-06 14:52:32 UTC
The module forms (currently located in the gsl project) should be moved to the dba (database access) project, as the main focus of the module are data aware forms.
Moving a cvs modules from one project to another is not that simple: 1. We have to decide wether a: cvs remove and commit the module b: copy the archives directly on the filesystem of cvs 2. how to deal with the CVSROOT/modules file a: alias point to the new project -> it becomes impossible to access the correct module in older workspaces. b: a: gets work, if we do a copy a the repository in cvs. c: create a "new" form2 module in the new project => no conflicts.
Any further action needed or will forms stay in gsl?

(sorry for the late answer, was offline for three weeks) st: yes, we still would like to have forms in dba instead of gsl. I'd prefer a solution where we have the old as well as the new module accessible (so 2a. only seems inappropriate), and where the new module is named "forms" (not forms2).
Is there any progress here? Or do we want to let this issue silently die?
Martin, could you clarify with Frank, how we would like to proceed? Thanks Stefan
having the module available with the same name is not possible, we can not have two aliases in the CVSROOT/modules file. so if we want to move the forms module I see no other chance than introducing a new module name. procedure for that is well known.
Martin, so you are recommending 1a? What about 1b? I do not see how 2a (which is impossible as you say) prevents 1b?
1b can additionally performed to 1a, but surely have to be done before 1a
Martin, I understood that both 1b and 1a would solve the problem independently? Don't they?
