Hi,
Just looking to see if I've got any conceptual problems here prior to
submitting a proper bug report/patch.
In Zend_View_Helper_Url the reset parameter is documented as:
"Whether or not to reset the route defaults with those provided".
I've always taken this to mean that if the route being assembled is the
same as the one matched on the current request, do not use the values
extracted from the current request when assembling if this argument is true.
So question one is, is this assumption correct?
Assuming I am correct, when I look at the assemble() method of
Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Regex it's clearly evident that the $reset
parameter is completely ignored and $this->_values is always used.
So under this logic, it is impossible to e.g. link to the same route as
currently matched but with different values for some params, but leaving
others to be filled in by their default values when said missing params
were actually supplied in the currently matched route!
Phew, that last sentence was a hard one to follow, so I'll do an example.
Say I have a route:
new Zend_Route_Regex(
'foo(?:/([\w-]+)(?:/([0-9]+))?)?',
array('module' => 'blah', 'controller' => 'blah', 'action' => 'blah',
'arg1' => bar, 'arg2' => 1),
array(1 => 'arg1', 2 => 'arg2')
);
If the following URL is matched
/foo/bar/42
And I use a view helper to create a new link on that page via:
$this->url(array('arg1' => 'oink'), null, true);
Then I'd expect a route of:
/foo/oink
to be produced (because null will match the current route, and true says
the current values should be ignored.
However this actually produces a route:
/foo/oink/42
As the value matched in the current route is not reset as you would expect.
This is the same regardless of the $reset parameter so:
$this->url(array('arg1' => 'oink'), null, false);
will also produce the same result:
/foo/oink/42
So, my second question: is this a bug, or am I misunderstanding what
$reset should do?
Thanks
Col
