[Dolibarr-dev] PDF generation

[anthony . poiret]

Hi,

I'm working on a specific developement to adapt a dolibarr to advanced  
food logistic management (we work on a version 3.1).

I get some troubles with pdf generation and display processes. For  
now, I reached my goals by the use of some tricks that doesn't affect  
core, but I get some comments (I'm sure Eldy already noticed that, but  
a remind won't be bad)...

1 - I noticed a lot of if ... elseif in showdocuments function, and  
document.php that look a bit ugly (I wonder if they may disappear from  
later version) and make the understanding of these files work a bit  
blurry (especially because the generic part of these conditions should  
be applied for all of their part I guess).

2 - There's a point more troubling, on the way the getting of  
documents works with rights: subpermission able us to do a clean job  
while we use only one kind of document in a module. The point is that  
in our case, we need at least five in our; consequently, we can't use  
the global var _SUBPERMCATEGORY_FOR_DOCUMENTS to define rights to  
check (see lines 426 to 439 in document.php), as modulepart seems  
needing to be the module name. I doesn't get a generic solution for  
this problem, but I guess it could be useful to having a reflection on  
it. For now, we just recreate the documents.php in our module to not  
affect the core and satisfying our needs.


Thanks for readding,
Regards,
