Bug #4457
closed
Workflow Run Manager - past Report Layouts don't open
Added by Derik Barseghian almost 15 years ago.
Updated almost 15 years ago.
Description
If in WRP you create a report layout, run the workflow, quit and restart kepler, and then "Open Workflow in New Window" for this run, the workflow and report for will be viewable, but the report layout does not show up.
We found out today that the ReportLayoutKAREntryHandler was serializing the ReportLayout object to the cache as xml instead of a java serialized object. The solution was to update the entry handler to write the ReportLayout to the cache as a Java serialized object. It is now being serialized properly but is still not opening quite right because the GUI is not being refreshed from the open method of the entry handler (the workflow is opened first, then the ReportLayout; due to the dependency mechanism that was added to the KARFile.openKarContents() method).
This bug likely depends on #4132, which I should fix before more work goes into this one.
r21539 should fix this, going to leave open for a bit for others to test...
Turn out this was a problem with multiple report layouts being exported to the KAR: the one "in memory" was blank and so we'd always see that, rather than the one that we saved during the execution we are opening.
