[jira] [Commented] (YETUS-995) vote table should have access to the log filename

["Allen Wittenauer (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YETUS-995?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17198471#comment-17198471 ] 

Allen Wittenauer commented on YETUS-995:
----------------------------------------

Currently, the relevant log files end up in TP_FOOTER_TABLE via add_footer_table().  Ideally, what should have happened in hindsight, is that TP_VOTE_TABLE/add_vote_table() should have taken an additional parameter.  Then during footer expansion in the bugsystems' reporting functions, TP_VOTE_TABLE log entries should have been added to the footer.

> A big design from early on in test-patch history was that the log entry was separate from the vote.  This setup was likely done for a variety of aesthetic and practical reasons for JIRA. However, that design is flawed in that it is letting display dictate internals.  With GitHub Status (YETUS-994), this flaw is now very very obvious.
> Fixing this flaw is going to be a MAJOR compatibility break with no particularly easy way to make existing code work.  Details below.
