Target platform option got deleted

[manu.blot@…]

from branches/experimental/trac-0.11

From the Builds/Configurations? admin panel:

1. Select "Add platform"
2. Enter a new rule (property name, match pattern) pair
3. Click on the + button to add a new rule

-> The Rules group is cleared up, losing the first rule.

Workaround: From the Builds/Configurations? admin panel:

1. Select "Add platform"
2. Enter a new rule (property name, match pattern) pair
3. Click 'Add'
4. Re-select the "Add platform" button
5. The platform rules can now be edited / augmented without losing content

Yes, I'm aware of this one. It's a problem in the 0.10 version as well. It will take a little refactoring to fix, but it's definitely worth addressing.

Yup, this UI glitch needs fixing. Problem is that rules cannot be submitted and stored as the platform does not yet exist. My preference would be to follow similar Trac admin web pages, and put a simple "Add Platform" fieldset to the right of the platform listing on the config page. A simple form with just 'name' and 'create' button, and then after creating the user is redirected to the platform edit where the rules can be added.

Any better ideas? I'll prepare a patch for the my idea anyway.

Adds a "New platform" fieldset to the right of the platform listing.

Just applied the patch and it works nicely

I've reworked the UI in [681] based on last patch.
