#4280 closed patch (wontfix)

Allow defining different versions of the XML without having to increment the protocol version.

Reported by: Andrew Ruthven <andrew@…> Owned by: dblain
Priority: minor Milestone: 0.24
Component: MythTV - UPnP Version: head
Severity: medium Keywords:
Cc: Rob Smith Ticket locked: no

Description

Currently the only way to determine if the XML formatting is different is look at the MythTV Protocol attribute and see if that has changed.

It is unlikely that the developers will want to change the protocol version just because the XML format has changed. This patch adds a new XmlVer? attribute which can be changed independently from the main protocol version.

Example output is:

<Status version="0.21.20071202-1" protoVer="36" xmlVer="1" ISODate="2007-12-07T11:14:30" time="11:14 AM" date="12/7/2007" >

Pushing to .24 since we are in feature freeze. May no longer apply once dblains upcoming changes are applied?

Just don't think there is any interest in this-- we don't do anything with the status XML and nobody that I know of wants to increment yet another attribute.

This may all come out in the wash if/when we redesign the protocol stuff anyways.

Hi,

In which case, please increment the protocol version if the XML format changes, it certainly complicates things for consumers of the XML if the format changes with no version change.

Cheers!
