235479 - html templates assume cvsroot heirarchy of 'mozilla'

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Webtools Graveyard :: MXR, defect)

Description

[Chris Yeh]

The mozilla LXR assumes that all indexed trees exist under a 'mozilla' directory
at the toplevel of /cvsroot. This causes the generated bonsai urls to be fixed
one, and only one main directory from the cvsroot.

I.E. if you have a new project which sits in:

/cvsroot/newproj

The urls from the template-* files will all generate bonsai urls that start with
http://bonsai/cvslog.cgi?file=mozilla/$pathname



Which is wrong, because we really want a generated url that has:

http://bonsai/cvslog.cgi?file=newproj/$pathname

Attachment: patch to LXR config and template system

Patch creates a new config variable named 'bonsaicvsroot' that will determine
the correct starting directory name for bonsai urls by finding the last element
of the path to the source and inserting that into the template dynamically
using the existing variable replacement system.

the callback lists appear to be aligned as a two column list, please either
realign them or change the whitespace to the more traditional single space.

mxr is gone, mass closing.
https://searchfox.org/ is a much better alternative.
