all members of another group. Such a capability would be very useful to
us, so I've had a look at how it could be done in 2.0b3.
I would add a "member_hostgroups" attribute to the hostgroup config
object, and the content of this attribute would be passed to
xodtemplate_expand_hostgroups_and_hosts() (instead of NULL) from
xodtemplate_recombobulate_hostgroups().
Then we would have to make sure all hostgroups depended on were in fact
expanded first, so recombobulate_hostgroups() should do a topological sort
of hostgroups first.
This also implies the "process all hosts that have hostgroup directives"
loop should be moved first.
Would there be any annoying side-effects to sort
xodtemplate_hostgroup_list in-place, or any other thing I would have
missed at first look ?
If not, it looks like it would only be an half-an-hour coding session to
get this running
