Filter by project messages

[Kevin Reed]

As noted by one of WCG's community admins (Sekerob):

When filtering by project, the global messages should probably be left visible(such as follows):

2/26/2009 10:28:16 AM General prefs: from World Community Grid (last modified 26-Feb-2009 10:28:05) 2/26/2009 10:28:16 AM Computer location: home 2/26/2009 10:28:16 AM General prefs: using separate prefs for home

The above is not visible if filtering on WCG. This is likely to cause confusion and support difficulities when members report logs when they don't want us to see what else is attached and missing some important bits.

• client: show fetch share rather than run share in wfd message

[Nicolas]

That's the wrong solution. Those are global messages, not per-project messages, so they should be still passing NULL.

But the manager should show NULL-project messages even if filtering by a project.

Replying to Nicolas:

the manager should show NULL-project messages even if filtering by a project.

Or like Kevin said in the original report, "When filtering by project, the global messages should probably be left visible".

[Kevin Reed]

An example of a NULL message that should be displayed is

2/25/2009 8:15:19 AM BOINC can't access Internet - check network connection or proxy configuration.

That is applicable to all projects and would critically impact how we view a support issue.

romw, please remove the "(fixes #xxx)" when merging changesets. It has happened before that I reopened a ticket and it got closed again because of a merge, instead of because of a better fix...

[romw]

r17491 did what you wanted, and was merged into 6.6.

[Nicolas]

Yes it did, and thanks. It's still bad to leave the 'fixes' in the merge log ¬_¬ See #430
