This issue is caused by the odd default behaviour of Zend_Date, which attempts to parse yyyy-mm-dd format date and times as though they were yyyy-dd-mm.
DataObject::validate() is currently set to protected, but this means
you can't call validate() from outside the context of itself unless
you overload the method to use a public visibility and then call
parent::validate()
As it would turn out, most classes that overload this method already
set the visibility to public, so it would make sense the parent matches
that as well.
- Document the format for descriptor arrays
- Implement the behaviour that developers have come to expect for
string descriptors of indexes
- Add test for handling of unique indexes (MySQL & sqlite3)
- Resolve#2403
Versioned needs to convert unique indexes to non-unique for its suffixed
tables, such as Foo_Live and Foo_versions. Because DataObject accepts
string descriptors such as array('UniqIDX' => 'unique (Uniq)') as well
as array-based descriptors, Versioned needs to recognize string
descriptors. This patch accomplishes that. Before, Versioned would fail
to convert string-described indexes to non-unique, resulting in run-time
errors when creating a new version of an object.
If more than two $from were added through SQLQuery->addFrom(),
the getOrderedJoins() comparison kicks in. It assumes all $from
parts are in array notation, which isn't always the case.
For legacy reasons, and because we don't have full API support,
you can still add literal joins through addFrom('INNER JOIN ...').
On PHP 5.3, the ordering comparison still works because it
allows array access in strings, with string rather than numeric indexes.
Thankfully that's no longer supported in PHP 5.4.
DataQuery::initialiseQuery() will add a default sort to a query,
and when calling up an aggregate it will make a query like this
which doesn't make sense:
SELECT MAX("LastEdited") FROM "Member" ORDER BY "ID"
In this case there is no need to add the ORDER BY, and it will
break databases like MSSQL in cases such as
GenericTemplateGlobalProvider
which provides a default List() function for adding aggregates
into SSViewer template cacheblocks.
If we add a limit, however, then it does make sense:
SELECT MAX("LastEdited") FROM "Member" ORDER BY "ID" LIMIT 10
This fixes SQLQuery::aggregate() to NOT add an ORDER BY to an
aggregate call if there is no limit.
