[TYPO3-mvc] redirect in Tx_Extbase_MVC_Controller_AbstractController should respect the page typeNum

[Marco Huber]

Hi everybody,

I think the redirect funtion in the class 
Tx_Extbase_MVC_Controller_AbstractController should respect the page 
typeNum.

As I don't know much about git here is the changed function:

public function redirect($actionName, $controllerName = NULL, 
$extensionName = NULL, array $arguments = NULL, $pageUid = NULL, $delay 
= 0, $statusCode = 303, $pageType = NULL){
	if (!$this->request instanceof Tx_Extbase_MVC_Web_Request) throw new 
Tx_Extbase_MVC_Exception_UnsupportedRequestType('redirect() only 
supports web requests.', 1220539734);

	if ($controllerName === NULL) {
		$controllerName = $this->request->getControllerName();
	}
		
	if($pageType === NULL && $GLOBALS['TSFE']->type > 0){
		$uri = $this->uriBuilder
			->reset()
			->setTargetPageUid($pageUid)
			->setTargetPageType($GLOBALS['TSFE']->type)
			->uriFor($actionName, $arguments, $controllerName, $extensionName);
	} else {
		$uri = $this->uriBuilder
		->reset()
		->setTargetPageUid($pageUid)
		->uriFor($actionName, $arguments, $controllerName, $extensionName);	
	}
	$this->redirectToURI($uri, $delay, $statusCode);
}

There is a new parameter $pageType so that you can specify the pageType 
when you call the function. If $pageType is not defined the actuall 
typeNum from the TSFE is taken.

I stumbled upon this problem when I wanted to call a page with a special 
page type wich only has my plugin as content element in an ajax call.

Is there a better way to do that? Is this a bug or a feature?

Marco
