Submitting QtDevNet bug reports and suggestions

abhijeet

I can say one thing about the http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com is that, it is a mess.

It is quite difficult to find my bugs if "watch" option is not activated while submitting the bug.

"http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com":http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com is rather feature rich and it can take some time before you get 100% comfortable with it. On the other hand it's one of our core systems where hundreds of people are hard at work, it's bound to be a busy place.

Try looking around; I have a link called ""My Unresolved Reported Issues":http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&reporterSelect=issue_current_user&resolution=-1" on the dashboard that could be the one you're looking for?

If all else fails there is always the user guide: "http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/JIRA+User's+Guide":http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/JIRA+User's+Guide

It wasn't immediately obvious for me that despite I just created an account and logged in the Qt Dev Network I need to create yet another account to report a bug with QTDN :) Can these two accounts be linked somehow?

Not yet, sorry.

Okay, I submitted the bug report. Two more notes:

Could you at least visibly indicate for newcomers that the QtDN account and the bug reporter account are in no way connected?

I know it's not your fault, but sending out the user's password (not even a temporary or a randomly generated one) in plain text via email, which JIRA does, is a no-no.

I found the QT_DEBUG and QT_NO_DEBUG macros in Qt source. I currently use these in my Qt applications, but they cannot be found in Qt documentation.

The doc for these macros is just missing or these macros should not be used ?

Update: Our bugreport site will support OpenID in the future.

Hi Marius,
maybe the original post here could be changed to cover suggestions too? As far as I know, not only bugs, but suggestions should be reported in the tracker, too?

Is there any plans to add a possibility to send personal messages?

dangelog

Open a user's profile and click on "Send email"?

qxoz

Yes it can be done by this way.
But i mean messages inside site engine.
Maybe it is not nessesary but however, communicate using only one resource is more convenient.

I think it is considdered "Out of Scope" for devnet. Sometimes, that is a pitty, but on the other hand I understand very well the team needs to prioritize. They don't feel like duplicating webmail into DevNet.

mgran

Andre is right, we disabled private messaging during the closed beta because webmail is done better by others so we didn't want to spend time on that. Small team and all.

I noticed a small bug on Rate UP.
Some times(probably when internet is not stable) after pressing button "Rate UP" new point added to rating but rating not checked as marked, and you can rate it by second time.

This is only a visual glitch due to latency as you note, the actual points awarded will be correct as they are based on the final tag log. This is recalculated from scratch every night.

Thanks for reporting though :)

qxoz

Nice :)
Then i lose few points ;)
