Won't populate foreign table items when the link table is empty

gjwesteneng

When trying to populate a checkbox based on a link table fails when the link table is empty. If I manually insert 1 record in the linktable it starts working properly. However, until that first record exists it doesn't show the checkboxes containing the records of the foreign table.

The issue can be reproduced in the example project/database that comes with the package. You can assign access to users in the datatables example (JoinArrayController), but when the link table is empty (user_access table) the checkbox dropdown won't populate.

Is this a known bug, am I mistaken somewhere....Is there a workaround?

Hi Gertjan,

Thanks for letting me know about this. I'm afraid I don't have an immediate fix - but let me look into it in more detail and then get back to you.

Hi,

Sorry for the massive delay getting back to you about this. This is indeed a bug that is specific to the C# libraries for Editor (the PHP version doesn't suffer from the same problem).

I've fixed it now and will ship it in Editor 1.6.0 in early December. If you like, I can send an updated dll with the fix before then?

Regards,
Allan
