Summary

0011711: cdash/createRSS.php creates invalid RSS output

Description

The RSS feed created by CDash does not validate and has several other issues.

Errors:

- The <pubDate> element requires a RFC822 formatted date
- The <dc:date> element a W3C formatted date.

Issues:

- Do not provide both, <pubDate> and <dc:date>
- A <guid> element in each <item> would allow feed readers to identify items uniquely.
- A <atom:link href="..." rel="self"> element would allow a cached feed to refer back to itself.

Steps To Reproduce

See e.g. the W3C validator here for an example (the CMake dashboard):

http://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fcdash.org%2FCDash%2Frss%2FSubmissionRSSCMake.xml [^]

Additional Information

Since CDash requires PHP 5.2 you can use date(DATE_W3C) for the <dc:date> and date(DATE_RFC822) for the <pubDate> elements, respectively.

Also, adding a <guid> element (e.g. "$currentURI/buildSummary.php?buildid=$buildid" should fit the bill) would be nice to feed readers so they can distinguish items uniquely.

Adding the <atom:link href="..." rel="self"> element is trivial, just requires a namespace declaration. See http://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/warning/MissingAtomSelfLink.html [^]
