Description Nick Edgar CLA 2001-10-10 22:22:34 EDT
Request from Eclipse Corner:

Is there a capability for having a main or parent task in the task list
that could, under user control by clicking a plus sign for example, be
expanded into a list of multiple sub tasks?  If so, what driver contains
this support?

NOTES:

NE (4/26/01 10:27:40 AM) response:
The Tasks view does not support any kind of grouping or nesting as you 
suggest.  It is currently a flat list of tasks and problems.

I have logged a feature request for this.

NE (4/26/01 10:31:13 AM) RH adds:
Java Tooling should use this for Compile Errors!
Compile errors could be grouped by Compilation Unit.
Severity of the Unit would be a simple Min( children ).

NE (4/26/01 10:31:27 AM) response:
I have added your comments to the feature request.
You can currently sort by resource by clicking on the Resource column 
heading.

NE (5/2/01 10:54:28 PM)
	Deferred.

KH (8/13/2001 2:07:01 PM)
	Use as input for TaskList rework.
