Bug #65621 for EmbedIT-WebIT: soapdemo/WebService.pm is indexed by CPAN

Thu Feb 10 11:02:56 2011 dolmen [...] cpan.org - Ticket created

Subject:

soapdemo/WebService.pm is indexed by CPAN

The sample module soapdemo/WebService.pm is indexed by CPAN as can been seen here (in the "Modules" list): http://search.cpan.org/~devmorfo/EmbedIT-WebIT-1.6.3a/ So when looking for "WebService" on search.cpan.org, this distribution appears in the results. This should not be the case because: - soapdemo/WebService.pm is only a part of sample code - "WebService" is a namespace on CPAN used by other modules -- Olivier Mengué - http://search.cpan.org/~dolmen/ http://github.com/dolmen/

How to fix this? * Move the soapdemo and webdemo directories into an 'examples' directory: this is the usual layout for CPAN distributions. * Then mark 'examples' as 'no_index' in the distribution metadata. -- Olivier Mengué - http://search.cpan.org/~dolmen/ http://github.com/dolmen/

Also it will be necessary to delete all the old releases that contain WebService.pm from the CPAN. Your users will still be able to find the old releases on the BackPan. -- Olivier Mengué - http://search.cpan.org/~dolmen/ http://github.com/dolmen/

@devmorfo Please fix this issue. MRVT's solution is the simplest fix to apply. If you can't now, you could alternatively add me as a co-maint so I can upload a fixed release 1.6.4. https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=share_perms -- Olivier Mengué - http://perlresume.org/DOLMEN

Although your request sounds correct, WebIT is being used for publishing webServices, and this is mostly because it matches on the CPAN index ... Suggest something else. Όταν Πεμ Φεβ 10 11:02:56 2011, DOLMEN γράψε: Show quoted text
