Better error handling in File->Open

Carlos Rueda — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 20:29:08 -0000

Context: File -> Open (used to open an existing mapping file in local filesystem).

If the file refers to ontologies that cannot be opened, VINE intially shows a meaningful message (<file> cannt be open); OK.
But then it continues and then it also fails to create the corresponding Editor panel.

Expected behavior: Just report the initial error message. Do not try to open editor (similarly as how File->New currently works.

- New mapping wizard: If the user selects an existing file, ask for confirmation to overwrite.

upload after save as does not take new filename

Carlos Rueda — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 19:16:16 -0000

an example:
- create a mapping file, named "originalname"
- choose Save As to save it as "savedasname"
- upload mapping to registry
- in registry, the entry appears with "originalname"

broadMatch, narrowMatch: no way (+ other concept issues)

Anonymous — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 16:21:10 -0000

The concepts broadMatch and narrowMatch are subtle and difficult to use until people have more experience. For this purpose they are far less satisfactory than (and totally different meaning than) broaderThan and narrowerThan.

If they are used, they need to be last on the list, not first, and they need to have more appropriate icons. (They probably also need to have links to help, because no one will grok the difference.)

Suggest the first icon in the list be '=', the next two be broaderThan/narrowerThan.

Do we want a term called 'is_a'? And would that be any different than 'subClass_of'?

opening VINE 2nd time, no welcome

Opening VINE 2nd time did not bring up splash page or Welcome page. Window for Welcome page was open but blank. This was not repeatable.

ontology doesn't open

Anonymous — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 16:09:37 -0000

Selected the argo qualityflag.owl file in setup, but after OK I get the message "Not able to open ontology: http://mmisw.org/ont/argo/qualityflag.owl"

inferred mappings not removed

Carlos Rueda — Sat, 27 Sep 2008 04:13:00 -0000

- create a new mapping file
- create a single mapping
- open mapping results tab: 2 mappings appear: the explicit and the inferred one
- delete the explict one
- the inferred one remains there

Check that the model is actually updated but that the tabular panel is not.

progress dialog creating a new mapping

- Vine 1.4.0.20080904a and previous versions.
- No OS- or arch-specific

Progress information should be improved for better visual feedback. Currently the progress bar does not properly reflect the progress and the dialog window often disappears well before the task is completed (for example when creating a new mapping file).

NPE when double-clicking non-leaf in mapped statements tree

A NullPointerException message is displayed without any other exaplanation for the user.

vine 1.4.0.20080904a

Ontologies:
- CF
- GCMD

Did a couple of exactMatch mappings. Went to the Mapping Results tab. Double-clicked an inferred mapping. A window popped up with title "Derivation information" but empty contents.
