Description Pascal Rapicault CLA 2007-07-24 15:52:43 EDT 
When a property changes in a profile, there is no event associated with it making it impossible for the user level rollback support to keep track of the previous values.
It would be good to have a notification event when properties in a profile changes.

would also be good to have property change events for repo property changes
Comment 2 Pascal Rapicault CLA 2007-08-13 18:06:40 EDT 
I opened bug #199806 to keep track of the requirement in comment #1.
Comment 3 Susan McCourt CLA 2007-10-25 17:54:38 EDT 
I've just had to hack a ProfileEvent.CHANGE event.
My hack involved Profile.setInstallableUnitProfileProperty(...).
I did not attempt to address the other cases where this is needed.

See also bug #206077.

Simon, this is also becoming important now for the UI for revert.  

When I look at a "saved profile" IU (See FormerState.profileToIU), I need to be able to know what the install roots on that profile were.  So those IU profile properties need to be retained somehow.
Comment 5 Simon Kaegi CLA 2007-12-07 00:43:38 EST 
PropertyChange events are now being properly tracked in terms of commit/rollback with the code in HEAD. I'm going to add a dependency on bug 208251 as that's where I'm doing the bulk of the work and come back and close this once that's in good shape.
Comment 6 Simon Kaegi CLA 2007-12-08 22:33:30 EST 
Marking FIXED.
Profile properties and ProfileIUProperties are now persisted along with all other changes to the Profile when a transaction in the Engine is committed.
