Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Address Book & Contacts, defect)

Description

[Ninoschka Baca]

Trunk build 2001-11-30-03: WinMe

Overview: When a mail list is selected then the Edit menu either shows a Delete
Card or Delete Address Book menu item. It should state Delete List.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Select a list in the results pane (or the directory pane)
2. Select the Edit menu

Actual Results:
- If the list selected is in the results pane then it dispalys Edit|Delete Card
- If the list selected is in the directory pane then it displays Edit|Address Book

Expected Results:
Anytime a list is selected, either from the results pane or directory pane, then
the Edit menu should display a Delete List menu item.

I have a fix for this bug - therefore taking and cc'ing Seth, I'm also seeing it
on Linux (build id below) so setting OS to all.

Attachment: Patch to dynamically update the delete item menu.

This patch dynamically updates the delete item menu correctly according to the
currently selected item(s).

There is also a modification to ensure that the menu is updated as soon as the
selection on the results pane is changed (this didn't work before - you had to
focus on another window and then go back to it for the menu item to change).

Ideally this should still be fixed, so don't delete the comment...

This is a bad place to put this, because this function gets called a fair
amount; perhaps you could inline the call in the cmd_delete case?

Patch v2

Right, this way should work too (I only tested attachment 167347 [details] [diff] [review]).

Patch v2

+	   if (GetDirectoryFromURI(selectedDir).isMailList)
+	     goSetMenuValue(command, "valueList");
+	   else
+	     goSetMenuValue(command, "valueAddressBook");

can be

goSetMenuValue(command, GetDirectoryFromURI(selectedDir).isMailList ?
"valueList" : "valueAddressBook"; 

sr=bienvenu with that nit.
