Description Navid Mehregani CLA 2010-07-11 19:56:43 EDT 
Build Identifier: 

Currently there is no way to get the name of an installed module without using deprecated API.

ProjectDetails.getName() has been deprecated with a note indicating that IAbstractTigerstripeProject.getName() should be used instead.  This is how I invoke this API:

ITigerstripeModuleProject installedModule = InstalledModule.makeModuleProject();
String projectName = installedModule.getName();   

However, installedModule.getName() returns the model ID as opposed to the project name.  This is because InstalledModuleProjectHandle.getName() returns the model ID.  If I use the deprecated API 
 
String projectName = ProjectDetail.getName() it correctly returns the project name and not the model ID.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
N/A

Installed modules are always referenced by ModelId.

(We have conflicts with "name" and "label" in teh pas - especally when refacoring is used).

This is why the getName() method is deprecated. I will update the patch to use modelID.
