Description

If I have a field defined like:

'mitglieder_ag' => array(
'exclude' => 1,
'label' => 'LLL:EXT:cronmm_ratsinfo/locallang_db.xml:tx_cronmmratsinfo_gremium.mitglieder_ag',
'config' => array(
'type' => 'group',
'internal_type' => 'db',
'allowed' => 'tx_cronmmratsinfo_ausschussgemeinschaft',
'size' => 20,
'minitems' => 0,
'maxitems' => 100,
'multiple' => 1,
'selectedListStyle' => 'width:100px',
'MM' => 'tx_cronmmratsinfo_gremium_mitglieder_ag_mm',
)
),

that is with "MM=1" and "multiple=1", I am able to have a list where the same record occurs multiple times, e.g:

uid_foreign=45, sorting=1
uid_foreign=44, sorting=2
uid_foreign=44, sorting=3

After moving the entry 45 down one item (to get the list "44, 45, 44"), and I save the record, I end up with the following list:

45, sorting = 1
44, sorting = 3
44, sorting = 3

So not the desired sorting. I cannot separate the same uids: they will end up always being sorted in a "block".

The problem comes from t3lib_loaddbgroup::writeMM(), which cannot handle "multiple=1".

oldMMs:
45, 44, 44

the new itemArray in t3lib_loaddbgroup::writeMM():
44, 45, 44

In t3lib_loaddbgroup::writeMM() TYPO3 will execute the following UPDATEs:

UPDATE tx_cronmmratsinfo_gremium_mitglieder_ag_mm SET sorting = 1 WHERE uid_local=1026 AND uid_foreign=44
UPDATE tx_cronmmratsinfo_gremium_mitglieder_ag_mm SET sorting = 2 WHERE uid_local=1026 AND uid_foreign=45
UPDATE tx_cronmmratsinfo_gremium_mitglieder_ag_mm SET sorting = 3 WHERE uid_local=1026 AND uid_foreign=44

Notice that the last UPDATE will override what the first one did, so that we end up with the MM-table containing:

45, sorting = 2
44, sorting = 3
44, sorting = 3

and we would expect:

44, sorting = 1
45, sorting = 2
44, sorting = 3

Solution for "multiple=1" is to delete all records before we start and just write the new ones in the order they come in (with INSERT).

The problem is not present in TYPO3 4.2, because of this change done by Kasper in January: http://code.typo3.org/v4/changeset/3002. The solution here was to add a "uid" field for every MM table that needs "multiple=1", to be able to identify each record uniquely even if they contain the same uid_local/uid_foreign combination. I would like to fix the bug in 4.1 like suggested above, because else we would have to backport a new feature from 4.2 (new TCA setting "MM_hasUidField") to 4.1.
