Subject: 24.0.50; Paging in tabulated-list-mode
Date: Mon, 11 Jul 2011 10:34:04 +0200
I am using tabulated-list-mode in debbugs-gnu.el. Due to the amount of
bugs, they must be presented on several pages (buffers). There are
widgets which allow navigation between those pages.

It would be nice, if tabulated-list-mode would support paged
display. Alternatively, a hook in tabulated-list-print would be welcome
where I could arrange the page widgets myself.

Was this something that debbugs-gnu had in earlier years?  I just get
the entire bug list presented to me, and it doesn't look like I have any
customisations in that area.

In the beginning, debbugs-gnu retrieved only up to 500 bugs, and showed
them. The user could ask for the next (up to 500) bugs afterwards, and
so on.

Today, debbugs-gnu knows how many bugs to retrieve at all. It raises
several soap-invoke-async requests in parallel, every call limited to
500 bugs. The results of the calls will be merged and shown - thats what
you see as long list.

Best regards, Michael.

Right; thanks.

But this does make the requested feature unnecessary in this use case,
doesn't it?  I mean, it does sound like something that'd be nice to
have, but in general we don't add stuff to Emacs until we have (at
least) one concrete use case.

The current incarnation of debbugs doesn't need this feature, indeed. So
I'm closing the bug.

Best regards, Michael.
