Trigger dependencies in eventhistory v 1.1.2

[[email protected]]

Hi,

We have a trigger A, dependent on trigger B.
If trigger B is TRUE, then trigger A cannot become active (that's how trigger depency should work).

That works fine, we don't see trigger A in the list of active triggers, when trigger B is active, except ....

We DO see trigger A in the list "history of events" getting value ON, as if the dependency was not defined at all.

Bug ??

Greetings,

Not a bug. You will note that the triggers don't show up in the triggers page, just in the events page.

Strange ....... I thought that event-history contains a list of all trigger-status changes

I'l explain our situation.
We have 100's of triggers, but 'disabled' a lot of them during weekends.
For this, we made a 'dummy' trigger, which is only active in weekends (Sat after 7AM and Mon until 7AM); this is rather a complex expression, and we don't want to copy it in every trigger that should be inactive in the weekend.

Therefore, we use dependencies to disable all triggers that should not be active in the weekends.
When I get in the office on monday morning, I want to check if anything serious has happened during the weekend.
In that case I don't expect to see the status-changes of all disabled triggers.

If you think this is not a bug; is there another way to reach my goal (other than copying the expression into every trigger) ?
