This is not the same as "What were the lease recent actors accessing '/home/markus/seif.txt' One will give u the oldest events and the other will give u the latest events sorted ASC. > With the current definition of LeastRecentActors the query would look like > >>> template = Event.new_for_values(subject_uri="/home/markus/seif.txt") > >>> events = FindEvents(TimeRange.Always(), [template,], Any, 3, > LeastRecentActor) > >>> actors = [e.actor for e in events] > > This would not work anymore if we do the change you propose.

Status in Zeitgeist Framework: New Bug description: In an attempt to work on bug #641968 I discovered that we some of us defer on the understanding of LeastRecentActor The documentation stated that LeastRecentActor = enum_factory(("The first event of each different actor")) Let's assume we have sequential events. (The actors are defined by numbers) 2, 1, 3, 2, 1, 4 So we have 4 different actors (1,2,3,4) and we want to sort them by least recent. the least recent is not 2 or 1 since they are used again at the end. the least recent is 3 This means LeastRecentActors should return the latest actors sorted ASC: 3, 2, 1, 4 and not 2, 1, 3, 4 When we look at LeastRecentSubjects = enum_factory(("One event for each subject only, " "ordered with oldest events first")) My understanding according to Siegfried is: <seif_> RainCT, <seif_> LeastRecentSubjects = enum_factory(("One event for each subject only, " <seif_> "ordered with oldest events first") <seif_> so i f i have <seif_> the subject <seif_> 1, 2, 1, 3, 4 <seif_> what do i get returned <seif_> 1, 2, 3, 4 <seif_> or <seif_> 2, 1, 3, 4 <seif_> ? <RainCT> seif_: the later <RainCT> for each subject you only look at the most recent one <seif_> ok then we should do the same for the actors :) <RainCT> Yes. Isn't it like this already? <seif_> no In that case if we follow this convention I can update the doc strings and already have the bug fix for both this bug and #641968 _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~zeitgeist Post to : zeitgeist@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~zeitgeist More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
