Re: Deletion Simulation

Re: Check if permission is inherited

I actually built two classed. One listed my permissions that I could find per user and group. The other gets all the Acos keyed by the ID since everything will be looked up by the that in the array. I'll try to come up with some code later on that isn't an exact replica of my code, thus not bre

Re: Check if permission is inherited

Recently I have been "rolling my own" to get this. I came up with a process, the work is proprietary My suggestion would be to look into the using the Aro's (user/group) getPath and using the IDs to look up the specific permissions (aros_acos table) . From there you can look up your Aco dat

Re: ControllerTestCase adding records to default database on testAction

Is it just one test case, or all. I've had this happen in one case, using the ACL tables... Have you checked the database config file (App/Config/database)? There should be an entry in there like this: public $test = array( 'datasource' => 'Database/Mysql', 'persistent' => false, 'host' => '127.
