Description Noura El hawary 2008-01-08 01:59:40 UTC 
write xmlrpc function nameToId that is to be contributed to the upstream
. Please refer to the following url for details on Bugzilla::RPC 2.18 functions mapped to upstream Bugzilla::WebService and for 2.18 xmlrpc functions sorted by percentage of calls: https://engineering.redhat.com/trac/bugzilla-3.0-rh/wiki/XmlrpcCrossComparison#a2.18xmlrpcfunctionssortedbypercentageofcalls

patch to Bugzilla/WebService/User.pm

the patch contains 2 functions one to get login name from userid and one to get
userid from login name, basically those 2 functions are similar to our xmlrpc
functions in rh_bugzilla_2_18  nameToId and IdToName
Comment 2 Noura El hawary 2008-01-15 07:11:21 UTC 
we can discuss with the upstream if it is best to pass one login name of list of
login names.

patch for WebService module that includes function login_to_id

I created a bug for that in the upstream :

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=412725

Attached is another version for the previous patch I changed it to accept a
list of login names instead of a single login name. "please note that the patch
also includes function for converting id to name"
Comment 4 Noura El hawary 2008-01-18 04:51:33 UTC 
please see:

Comment 5 Noura El hawary 2008-01-22 01:05:34 UTC 
This function and IdToName function will both be replaced by User.get() 

closing this bug as its work is just will be duplicate for function IdToName
