Hi List,
I wanted to use a similar config to this one:
define contact{
register 0
use generic-contact
name foobar-admin
contact_name foobar
}
define contact{
use foobar-admin
pager +12345
}
to separate pager/mail addresses into another config file.
Unfortunately this doesn't work - the second contact definition is
silently ignored.
I had a look at xodtemplate.c and this shows that even though the
contact gets correctly added to the global xodtemplate_contact_list, it
is not added to the appropriate skiplist because skiplist_insert() is
only called when contact_name is directly specified.
However, xodtemplate_resolve_contact() tries to inherit contact_name so
I guess this behaviour was introduced with the skiplists.
A possible solution would be to add the call to skiplist_insert() into
the resolve function where the inheritance takes place, or to maybe
entirely move skiplist_insert() calls to
xodtemplate_end_object_definition().
Thoughts?
Matthias
