| RE: [higgins-dev] fixing the component row templates |
I noticed that someone is already auto-generating (at least it appears that way) the info in /dependencies.html pages off the lastNightlyBuild pages. Do we need more than that?

Jim,
Please provide more detail on your ideas for auto generating the dependency info. We really want this info to be complete and up-to-date. We had been writing dependencies used in the build process to the wiki in one iteration of the build process.
I updated all the tables for y'all. Some of the dependency links are broken now. If you care, you can look at an old version of the page like http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php?title=Components&oldid=60587 to find your old dependencies and copy them to the new dep page.
Personally, I think the dep column should go away. I mean, the dependencies can be generated in a much easier and complete way.

I did some very hacky stuff in the template using default params and got it to allow dir=<somedir at the root of the higgins tree>, appdir=<somedir under /app>, or plugindir=<somedir under /plugin>
I think people can convert over to the templates now

I took a stab at changing the template to do what we want, and it works in sort of a limping way.
I really wanted to be able to have the viewcvs point at the proper place regardless of whether the project is under /api, /plugins, or at the root. To do that, we need the mediawiki extension ParserFunctions loaded.
I logged a bug but it's one of 84 on the webmaster's plate, so I dont' know how long it will take for it to be addressed.
