Fwd: eGW 14.3 - PM APP - weird role members issue

[Selso_LIBERADO-2]

When editing role members, we found out that sometimes for some members
the role selection does not list correctly all roles available : instead
we have something like “integer value, blank line, non related string”.
For some members, when adding them and applying, a link to another
project is added to the edited project. We found out that it occurs when
the user and linker project have the same ID in database.We are trying
to find :

• where the combobox is populated
• where the erroneous link is created.

We found that :

• an entry is search in the link panel when adding a member (see
  attached file)
• when validating the link is added with the function link() in the
  class “egw_link”

But we don’t know how a link is search when we add member to projects.
We have searched the function called when clicking the “add” button but
can’t find it : in the XML template for “project edit”, there is an
input button whith id “add” but no action defined for this button
(onchange() missing). When inspecting this button with the browser this
id has changed to "projectmanager-element-edit_add).

How are defined actions for theses inputs without hook specified in XML ?

Best regards,
Selso.

This button causes a full submit to the server, and is handled there.
Have a look in class.projectmanager_ui.inc.php, starting around line 194.

Hello !

We found the projectmanager edit function at the line you specified,
but that not what causes the erroneous link : when using step by step
execution, we can see that the link is already added when this function
is reached.
We have found that the etemplate_widget_link::validate() function
register a link if it has been searched but not applied. And that what
is happening : a link is set in the combobox but actually addded when
saving.
So by commenting theses lines the erroneous link is not added.

We tried in vain to find which function in the API process the "add"
button, but it’s a cloud there.
Using whireshark we noticed an associated request / reply with json data
and search the following :

• where in the client dialog is sent the request
• where in the server is processed the request
• where in the client dialog is processed server response.

Well, even using Xdebug and the browser debugger for JS we can’t
identify the “main” functions, that’s too heavy… for just handling a
click on a button.
