Description Malcom Zung

The first time XPath analysis is done, the Symptom catalog is compiled and this takes a long time.  Would it be possible to provide some indication to the user that the lengthy process happens only on the first time, and subsequent analysis runs faster?



This request is from an IBM customer.

Here is the info from the customer:

The first time the LTA is using the symptom catalogs/databases there is an unusual delay in response and there is no feedback to the user that this is a one time event and the next time this is done it would take less time to do, maybe a pop up is in order?

The customer team is requesting this fix for the TPTP 4.2.1.1 fix pack.

This did not make the cut for inclusion in 4.2.1.1.  Because this is not a critical issue and because the fix is not available in 4.3, it cannot be contained in the 4.2.1.1 fix release.  Also, because 4.2 stream was translated, any new message or change to the UI needs to be translated which adds additional effort to this fix.  Targetting it for 4.4 to develop a fix.

I'll take care of this Eugene

This problem depends on the outcome of https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=162562.  If the compiling function of the Fast XPATH implementation is removed from TPTP due to internal JDK API usage, and a builder is used to compile the XPath rules offline then there will not be a delay the first time symptom analysis is done.

hm, I already started working on this bug.  I guess I'll wait until bug 162562 is addressed first.  In the meanwhile, I'll target this bug to future.

As a note to myself, the classes that are responsible for the XPath compilation are located in:
org.eclipse.tptp.platform.provisional.fastxpath.compiler* in the models plugin.

This is required from AC perspective.

Although  bug 162562 has been fixed there are still cases in which the catalog won't be compiled so a task label in the analysis job would need to provide a clue to the user that first the rules are compiled when running analysis.

Reassigning defect to monitoring lead.

No support will be provided for the Log and Trace Analyzer post 4.5.

Closing.
