[TYPO3-mvc] DataMapper does not respect TYPO3 4.3 default values in TCA

[Felix Oertel]

Hey guys,

Looking at 
http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/core-documentation/doc_core_api/4.3.0/view/4/2/ 


-> ['columns'][fieldname]['config'] / TYPE: "select"

we see that the default value for "maxitems" is 1. Anyway not defining 
"maxitems" in TCA columns config[*] for fieldtype "select" will produce 
an "Could not determine the type"-exception running into 
"$columnMap->getTypeOfRelation() === 
Tx_Extbase_Persistence_Mapper_ColumnMap::RELATION_HAS_MANY" 
(Classes/Persistence/Mapper/DataMapper.php:325)

If you specify maxitems => 1 everything works fine, so I think it should 
work with the default value 1 as well. ;-)

I don't know if this is a FLOW3 problem we are "in sync" with, but I 
think it's more an extbase problem since FLOW3 is not bound to the 
default values of TYPO3 v4. So where to file the bug?

Regards, foertel
