Don,

as I said in a previous mail, I would be very careful with using terminology
other programs don't use.

Image you are a genealogist, not knowing databases, and you install 
gramps. Will
you know how to proceed without reading the manual?

Even if terminology is more correct, it is of little use to people not knowing
this terminology.
If you change things to database nevertheless, I would suggest you also 
get rid
of the 'file' menu. It can be 'Database' or 'Session' or 'Location'

Sorry. This should be fixed now.

Well, that is the purpose of producing the prototype. We need feedback
to make things as clear as possible.

We had a discussion on the IRC channel the other night, and it was
thought that "Open" probably wasn't the clearest term, since there
wasn't a particular file to open.

This sounds like a good discussion for this list - what terminology
makes the most sense?

Or simply 'use [database]'?

Hi Don,

I only had a quick look at the new code... guess what I found ;-)

But first: I like the idea of having centralized folders containing all files. A first impression on my slow computer at home makes me think this is running faster now. Probably because extenting multiple files is faster than extenting the one single database file.

Now back to the bugs.

1) The window title contains the cryptic name of the database folder. That should be the nice name I entered in the database manager.

2) If you keep pressing the [New] button in the database manager multiple entries of the same name "Unnamed Database" are created. They should probably be numbered.

3) Create a new database and connect to that. Now open the database manager again. It is possible to delete the currently opened database!
Strange... after having the database deleted I can for example still add a new person. Well, when closing first the backup complains about the missing database folder, then a Traceback.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/martin/devel/gramps2_23/src/ViewManager.py", line 517, in quit
    self.state.db.close()
  File "/home/martin/devel/gramps2_23/src/GrampsDb/_GrampsDBDir.py", line 1124, in cl ose
    self.env.close()
DBNoSuchFileError: (2, 'No such file or directory -- /home/martin/grampsdb/46095ba6/m eta_data.db: unable to flush: No such file or directory')
But that is to be expected when working on deleted files.


ok, next I created a new database again for more testing.

4) The Rebuild reference maps tool gives:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/martin/devel/gramps2_23/src/PluginUtils/_Tool.py", line 254, in gui_tool
    tool_class(dbstate, uistate, options_class, name, callback)

    dbmap.open(fname, table_name, dbtype, self.open_flags(), 0666)
DBError: (20, 'Not a directory')


5) The rebuild secondary indices gives:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/martin/devel/gramps2_23/src/PluginUtils/_Tool.py", line 254, in gui_tool

When I try the GEDCOM import a encounter a little problem. My GEDCOM is
using ANSEL encoding, that's fine. When I just select the default, that's
fine too. However, when I select ANSEL I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/share/gramps/DbLoader.py", line 500, in do_import
    importer(self.dbstate.db, filename, self.uistate.pulse_progressbar)
  File "/usr/local/share/gramps/GrampsDbUtils/_ReadGedcom.py", line 70, in importData
    import2(database, filename, callback, code_set, use_trans)
  File "/usr/local/share/gramps/GrampsDbUtils/_ReadGedcom.py", line 83, in import2
    gedparse = GedcomParser(database, ifile, filename, callback, np)
  File "/usr/local/share/gramps/GrampsDbUtils/_GedcomParse.py", line 867, in __init__
    enc = stage_one.get_encoding()
  File "/usr/local/share/gramps/GrampsDbUtils/_GedcomParse.py", line 317, in get_encoding
    return self.enc.upper()
AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'upper'

This is because stage_one.set_encoding (_ReadGedcom.py line 80) is called with
number 1 instead of "ANSEL". You probably know best how to fix that.

[...]

In _WriteXML.py there is
   GrampsDbXmlWriter.__init__(self,version=const.version)

It's missing the 'db' and 'strip_photos' arguments of that __init__ call.

Hi Don,

What do you suggest that I can try? In de 2.0 code this encoding field
(through get_active) was used as an integer value. In the new gramps
code is is assumed to be text.
1) change gedcomimport.glade and make this field a GtkMenu
2) change the Python code to translate 0..n into "default", "ANSEL", etc
I prefer the 1) choice because then the texts in the glade file are not
repeated in the Python code (plus the requirement of having the exact same
order). However, I'm not a Glade expert, and I wasn't able to make that
change.

Can you send me a copy of the gedcom that you are trying to load?
