TYPO3.Fluid

I can confirm this bug. The patch works fine for me. Thanks Steffen!

I got a similar problem when trying to display a field
of TCA-type 'select' with items defined in the TCA.

The values of the field will get stored as CSV list
in the backend, so the type of the property in Extbase
is 'string'.

The problem is, that the checkbox viewhelper isn't aware
of handling this CSV list. If I enhance my model to return
an array, the whole thing will screw up when the model
gets persisted, as the SQL generated is something like:
"UPDATE table SET csv_field=()"

This happens if the field comes from a form, where
no checkboxes where selected.

Sorry for the sloppy description, but I'm not really aware
of where Extbase/Fluid messes this up or transforms the
variables into other types, etc. It's just I got huge
problems setting/getting 'select' fields (as defined in TCA)
inside my model, for displaying them with Fluid and persisting
them after form submission.

Is there any news about this issue? Unfortunately in 4.7.2 this problem still exists which might extbase/fluid show up like it was still in beta-state to extension-developers. Is it possible to sponsor parts of the fixing of this bug respectively integrating the offered patches into core?

Using the rewritten property Mapper, adding the following three lines of code to the view helper helped me:

if ($this->configurationManager->isFeatureEnabled('rewrittenPropertyMapper') && $this->hasMappingErrorOccured()) {
    $propertyValue = (boolean)$this->getLastSubmittedFormData();
}

I added them right after assigning the line:

$propertyValue = $this->getPropertyValue();

I don't know whether this will work in all other situations.

Basically it does the same as all other fluid form fields like textfield.
It retrieves the content of the property in the current request.

Perhaps this will help some of you.
