RFE request (smpatch analyze)

I'd like to see an option added to the analyze function which forces the output to be HTML-ized, and each patch needed is linked to the appropriate patch description on Sunsolve.

Why - I have a cronjob which sends this output to an email address. It would be much more convenient to just need to click on the patch number in the email rather than logging into sunsolve and searching for each one separately.

Thanks!

I think thats pretty much what they intend the GUI to be for. So you can just click on the patches and see what they do.

If you do want to do it in an email, it wouldnt be too hard to script something that parses the smpatch analyze output and wraps it html.

A URL that will the return the desc of a given patch is

http://sunsolve.sun.com/private-cgi/getpatch.pl?documentId=118558-17
