[TYPO3-dev] $TCA: Conditional Requirment for Fields in BE-Forms

[Malte Jansen]

You don't need every thing, because in this Patch there is also the 
Patch for "Notify user where required elements are nested in IRRE or 
Tabs" (5899).

Here is a small "dataflow"

class.t3lib_tceforms.php
1. Register Condition in input-field (function call in input-fields)
2. Register Possible trigger-field (function call in 
input-,text-,radio-,check-fields)
3a. Validate conditions & trigger. (function call in JSbottom)
3b. Tansforming Condition into an Array
4. Adding Trigger & Condition (to the array)

jsfunc.TBE_editore.js
1. Instead of checking the field-value there is function which 
parse/checks the condition-array.
2. Adding trigger-check foreach field which uses the trigger field as 
condition

Perhaps it is now easier to understand.

I'm now testing the newest version of 11 tabs and 50 fields (This is why 
the 5899 patch is included, I hope that this patch will be in the trunk 
soon).
The Version 3 is running on a productive system with following patches 
on 4.1.2:
- [TYPO3-core] RFC: #6259 Disabling Tabs with no fields (does not work)
- [TYPO3-core] RFC: #6256 $TCA: Newline for Tabs (--div--)

Most editors have not very much knowlegde about working with the 
internet or forgetting to fill out something like payment-type and than 
bank-data (https ;). So the patches are very powerful buisness-models. ...
