Added the possiblity of deleting waiting reservesm or setting them back to not waiting.
uses UpdateReserve now, instead of updatereserves from Reserves2.pm
long is the road to 1.4.0
* MARCadditem and MARCmoditem now works
* various bugfixes in MARC management
!!! 1.3.0 should be released very soon now. Be careful !!!

* fill_usmarc.pl => fills db with MARC21/english data structure. The modifs now maps koha item fields to 995 MARC tag.
* updatedb2marc.pl => builds MARC data from old-DB. WARNING : this script translate around 30rows/seconds, which is neither good nor bad (if you consider that 1 biblio+1 item = more than 50 record in the MARC-DB). But if you plan to migrate a 30 000 books db, launch script and go for lunch ;-)
MARC API continued...
* some bugfixes
* multiple item management : MARCadditem and MARCmoditem have been added. They suppose that ALL the MARC field linked to koha-item are in the same MARC tag (on the same line of MARC file)
Note : it should not be hard for marcimport and marcexport to re-link fields from internal tag/subfield to "legal" tag/subfield.

fixed up the CheckReserves.pm routine so that it does not put Referece items into "waiting" status if there is a reserve. Also fixed a bug in detail.pl.

added a Boolean: $norequests whhich is set on the template detail.tmpl so that the "requests" button only apears if it is actually possible to make a request. This is set by checking against the "notforloan" field on the itemtypes table.

Fixed a really terrible bug! Took out the fixpriorities call in FillReserve. This is not necesary because the priorities are fixed up when the item is set to waiting in ReserveWaiting.
finlayt [Wed, 14 Aug 2002 05:35:53 +0000 (05:35 +0000)]
all items are listed in the returned items list, regardless of whether they were issued or not.
Changed some messageing stuff as well, but will be back to fix that up some more.
Now, the acqui.simple system...
marcimport.pl has been almost completly rewritten, so LOT OF BUGS TO COME !!! You've been warned. It seems to work, but...
As with my former messages, nothing seems to have been changed... but ...
* marcimport now uses HTML::Template.
* marcimport now uses MARC::Record. that means that when you import a record, the old-DB is populated with the data as in version 1.2, but the MARC-DB part is filled with full MARC::Record.
<IMPORTANT NOTE>
to get correct response times, you MUST add an index on isbn, issn and lccn rows in biblioitem table. Note this should be done in 1.2 too...
</IMPORTANT NOTE>
<IMPORTANT NOTE2>
acqui.simple manage biblio, biblioitems and items tables quite properly. Normal acquisition system manages biblio, biblioitems BUT NOT items. That will be done in the near future...
</IMPORTANT NOTE2>
what's next now ?
* bug tracking, of course... Surely a dozen of dozens...
* LOT of developpments, i'll surely write a mail to koha-devel tomorrow (as it's time for dinner in France, and i plan to play NeverwinterNights after dinner ;-) ...
Now, the API...
Database.pm and Output.pm are almost not modified (var test...)
Biblio.pm is almost completly rewritten.
WHAT DOES IT ??? ==> END of Hitchcock suspens
1st, it does... nothing...
Every old API should be there. So if MARC-stuff is not done, the behaviour is EXACTLY the same (if there is no added bug, of course). So, if you use normal acquisition, you won't find anything new neither on screen or old-DB tables ...
All old-API functions have been cloned. for example, the "newbiblio" sub, now has become :
* a "newbiblio" sub, with the same parameters. It just call a sub named OLDnewbiblio
* a "OLDnewbiblio" sub, which is a copy/paste of the previous newbiblio sub. Then, when you want to add the MARC-DB stuff, you can modify the newbiblio sub without modifying the OLDnewbiblio one. If we correct a bug in 1.2 in newbiblio, we can do the same in main branch by correcting OLDnewbiblio.
* The MARC stuff is usually done through a sub named MARCxxx where xxx is the same as OLDxxx. For example, newbiblio calls MARCnewbiblio. the MARCxxx subs use a MARC::Record as parameter.
The last thing to solve was to manage biblios through real MARC import : they must populate the old-db, but must populate the MARC-DB too, without loosing information (if we go from MARC::Record to old-data then back to MARC::Record, we loose A LOT OF ROWS). To do this, there are subs beginning by "ALLxxx" : they manage datas with MARC::Record datas. they call OLDxxx sub too (to populate old-DB), but MARCxxx subs too, with a complete MARC::Record ;-)
In Biblio.pm, there are some subs that permits to build a old-style record from a MARC::Record, and the opposite. There is also a sub finding a MARC-bibid from a old-biblionumber and the opposite too.
Note we have decided with steve that a old-biblio <=> a MARC-Biblio.
WARNING : YOU MUST DO THE FOLLOWING IF YOU EXPECT THE MAIN-BRANCH TO WORK.
* install MARC::Record package, from cpan or sourceforge
* OVERWRITE File.pm and USMARC.pm. The original misses 1 functionnality we absolutly need in koha (reading a MARC from a variable, not from a file). Thanks to Steve, who modified MARC::Record.
* modify your DB by adding marcschema.sql tables
* populate new tables by launching fill_usmarc.pl
Then, it should work...
What works exactly will come in the next commit, in a few minuts (hitchcock suspens...)
Fixed up the Print module. Added a function printslip that takes a string as an argument. It is easier to prepare the slip and then call the print function.
in circulation.pl I have moved some javascript out to the circulation-top.inc
