Description Patrick Tasse CLA 2011-12-08 14:08:11 EST 
In the default Open Trace handler, a trace is created using the empty constructor, then initTrace() is called providing the trace path. The trace name is set to the final part of the path (ie. the file or resource name).

The added initTrace() method signature allows for providing a trace name which can be different than the resource name taken from the path.

Pushed to master branch.

Reopening the bug to update the solution.

The default behavior of using the final segment of the trace path for the trace name can produce undesired results when the trace resource is a linked resource with a different name than the local content.

The initTrace() method signatures are all updated to add a mandatory trace name parameter.
