[10:19:33 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> athena7: you were looking into multiple-profile support right?
[10:20:02 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> not really - more just lamenting that it wasn't supported in the import/export
[10:20:07 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> ah
[10:20:23 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> so in going through the import scripts this mornign trying to find all the int issues
[10:20:26 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I was looking at that
[10:20:28 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> ah
[10:20:30 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> cool
[10:20:41 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I'm not sure I even understand looking at the data model the interrelation of everything
[10:20:50 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> from what I understand:
[10:20:56 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> a user can have N profiles
[10:21:10 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> a profile points to a structure xsl, theme xsl and layout
[10:21:22 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> multiple profiles can point to the same layout
[10:21:38 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> layouts have structure attributes which are scoped to a particular profile
[10:22:03 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> does that all sound right?
[10:25:30 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> yes, i think so
[10:25:34 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i'm not sure i understand it all either
[10:25:46 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> so if that is the case there is a fair bit of refactoring needed in the scripts
[10:25:55 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> profiles would need to be broken out into their own files
[10:26:00 EDT(-0400)] <athena7>
[10:26:09 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> and we would need to come up with unique identifiers for both profiles and layouts
[10:26:16 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> be nice if we could just nest them sigh
[10:26:20 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> we could
[10:26:29 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> but that will add a restriction
[10:26:35 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> well
[10:26:36 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> hrm
[10:27:01 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I suppose a .layout could just include all of the profiles that point to it
[10:27:35 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> then we just need a way, in that .layout to reference a specific <profile> entry from a <structure-attribute>
[10:27:41 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> i guess we really need to also add the user agent mappings, which point to the profiles
[10:27:43 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> that's still a bit of work
[10:27:48 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[10:27:54 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> those are completely ignored right now
[10:28:10 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> it sucks not having FKs in the non-hibernate managed tables right now
[10:28:17 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> makes it really hard to decypher the tables
[10:28:36 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> we could add them with the new dbloader but I'd be supprised if the code does inserts/updates/deletes in the right order to deal with them
[10:28:50 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> oh and I just committed a batch of fixes for the import scripts in trunk
[10:28:59 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I think I found all of those numeric sql type issues
[10:29:45 EDT(-0400)] <athena7> oh yay
[10:30:27 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> the scripts still need work
