Trying to check-out item that has no checked_out property.

[hadevos]

I needed to catch an error in a component I am creating and therefore set my own php error handler. I was surprised how many (otherwise ignored) errors I got from the Joomla 2.5.18 core when I added the following code to my component:

Code: Select all

set_error_handler( function( $errno, $errstr, $errfile, $errline, array $errcontext ) {
  JError::raiseWarning( 0, "$errstr (no. $errno) in $errfile (line: $errline)" );
} );

I think it could be a good idea to set an error handler as above, when testing new Joomla releases...

One of the errors is about checking-out items. My component uses a database table without columns 'checked_out' and 'checked_out_time'. It gives me an error no. 8 when I choose 'Save' (= task 'apply', not 'Save & close') to store an item that is put into this table.

Cause: JControllerForm::save() calls $model->checkout() on line 749, without checking if the table has a property 'checked_out', like it is done on line 714.

Same case in JController::edit() on line 461.
