Forum OpenACS Development: Re: Error updating parameters with xotcl-core installed

Well installing xotcl-core breaks a core feature that allows you to add parameters to a package.

This should not require a restart. The xotcl-core code is broken as is.

Come on folks, this was just simple bug in an infrequently used situation, introduced 15 months ago. There is no magic involved. The cross-influence came due to the value-changed callback. Dave is certainly right, there should be no need to restart nsd in such situations.

xotcl-core is fixed in head an in the oacs-5-4 branch. It would be even better to have a callback for situations, where a new apm-parameter is created or deleted (like a constructor/destructor). Sorry, it took me 2 days to look into the problem. Shouldn't we use the bug-tracker for such cases?

btw., while i was looking at this, i fixed yet another case of the 'adding missing FROM-clause entry for table ...' in acs-admin
