[izpack-devel] subgroups in ShortcutPanel

[Joachim Hofer]

Hi again,

I don't know why I've been ignored completely before, but anyhow,
another attempt at getting the syntax for the ShortcutPanel definition a
bit more clean...

I have recreated the patch I had submitted before based on the current
revision of the ShortcutPanel source file (attached as subversion patch).

The patch changes the way shortcut subgroups are defined in
ShortcutPanel.xml, see the following example:
> <programGroup defaultName="someGroup" location="startMenu" />
>   <shortcut name="docu1" subgroup="documentation"
>      target=[...]
>   </shortcut>
>   <shortcut name="docu2" subgroup="documentation"
>      target=[...]
>   <shortcut name="docu3" subgroup="documentation"
>      target=[...]
>   </shortcut>
>   [...]

Currently (without my patch) it's done like this:
> in comparison with this (as it has to be done currently):
> <programGroup defaultName="someGroup" location="startMenu" />
>   <shortcut name="docu1" subgroup="\documentation"
>      target=[...]
>   </shortcut>
>   <shortcut name="docu2" subgroup="\..\documentation"
>      target=[...]
>   <shortcut name="docu3" subgroup="\..\documentation"
>      target=[...]
>   </shortcut>
>   [...]

I think this is very unintuitive and would still hope that you included
my patch (or at least told me why you don't want to).
