Hi, When setting the target for a bugreport, what is the difference between "Target" and "LazTarget"?

LazTarget was created before Mantis had a Target Field itself and is used much the same way in custom query. The built-in target field is used for the Roadmap page in Mantis.

The built-in target field has one problem: it cannot be used with multiple projects. So that is why to know all issues with target 1.0.0 in Lazarus and all its subprojects, I use the LazTarget Field. I was not able to use the built-in target field.

Hi Vincent,

Thanks for clearing that up.

The built-in target field is used for the Roadmap page in Mantis.

I noticed that.
I set the target to 0.9.30 of one bug, because it was a regression and used LazTarget instead of Target, which had no impact on the "roadmap" page.

I'll use Target then in the future.
