Hello,
I am trying to use GenericSetup to define permissions/roles mappings
for a product. As far as I can see, the current version of GenericSetup
does not register the permission if it does not exist. It supposes that
the permission exists and calls 'manage_permission()'. Naturally, it
breaks with new (unregistered) permissions.
All I need to do is to register this new permission, e.g. with
'CMFCore.permissions.setDefaultRoles()'. Is there any reason why this is
not done by the 'rolemap' importer? If not, I would be willing to
propose a patch.
(I am not totally sure that this is the right place to ask about
GenericSetup. If it is not, feel free to redirect me to the proper
mailing-list.)
Regards,
Can you not simply define the permission itself in zcml:
<permission
id="my.package.SomePermission"
title="My Package: Some permission"
/>
I _think_ that should then let you then import a rolemap for it.
(IMO it's a good thing that importing a rolemap for an unregistered
raises an error - imagine chasing an error because you have put 'List
Folder Contents' instead of 'List folder contents' in your rolemap.xml)
