Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 970502
chapter, section, and process should not require a nested topic
Last modified: 2016-06-17 17:11:10 EDT
Description of problem: If a section/chapter/process is a topic itself and does not contain any other topic, the content spec is invalid. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1.create a content spec map with the following: Chapter: Process Elements Defining Process Elements properties [13962] Section: Input editors [16046] Section: Forms [16722] Defining Process form [16723] 2.try to push the map Actual results: CSProcessor client version: 0.32.3 Loading configuration from /home/eko/.config/csprocessor.ini Connecting to PressGang server: http://skynet.usersys.redhat.com:8080/TopicIndex/ Starting to parse... Starting first validation pass... ERROR: Line 53: Invalid Section! No topics or levels in this Section. -> Section: Input editors [16046] Expected results: validation passes
If a Section only has "Introduction Text" then it in itself is just an ordinary topic, so you should just do the following: Chapter: Process Elements Defining Process Elements properties [13962] Input editors [16046] Section: Forms [16722] Defining Process form [16723] As for Chapter it will allow the format you specified, and the same goes for a Process.
Chapter: Process Elements Defining Process Elements properties [13962] Section: Input editors [16046] Section: Forms [16722] Defining Process form [16723] is not the same like: Chapter: Process Elements Defining Process Elements properties [13962] Input editors [16046] Section: Forms [16722] Defining Process form [16723] The Input editor topic should be nested under Defining Process Elements properties But it is not the same section as Forms which is also under Defining Process Elements properties [13962] There is no difference in rendering, but there is a difference in the semantics of the content spec. The other option is to drop the Section: thing all together and let the indenting decide... otherwise this is misleading.
It seems you are getting confused here about the syntax, anyways this is not a bug as a Section without children elements is just a topic. So, if "Input Editors" should be a child (nested element) of "Defining Process Elements properties" and so should "Forms", then the syntax should be: Chapter: Process Elements Section: Defining Process Elements properties [13962] Input editors [16046] Section: Forms [16722] Defining Process form [16723] If that still isn't right then feel free to email me with a better explanation. As for dropping the section thing, as I've mentioned to you before that is not possible.
