[TYPO3-commerce] RFC: #26552 Can't store addresses when using select field with value list

[Michael Knabe]

This is an SVN Patch request.

Type: Bug

Bugtracker references: http://forge.typo3.org/issues/26552

Branches: trunk

Description:

You can define a select box with a value list, which is working fine in
the edit/create-form:

tx_commerce_pi4.formFields.gender {
type = select
values {
m = Herr
f = Frau
}
}

However, when you store the address, pi4 tries to fetch the label for
the selected value from the database, which fails as no table is defined
here intentionally.



Solution:
One solution I saw on some systems is, to create a static table that
contains nothing but the value/label-list. A cleaner solution is done in
the attached patch: If the select-field has no table defined, but a
value list, use the value list from TS-configuration to get the label.
It also throws a more descriptive exception than TYPO3 does, if no
values are configured at all.

Steps to reproduce:
- Add the config above to your TS.
- Add the marker ###FIELD_GENDER### to the pi4-template.
- Log in.
- Try to create a new address in checkout process.


Cheers,
Michael
