[Bug 655] New: Strange rendering bug involving case of skin name

http://helma.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=655

           Summary: Strange rendering bug involving case of skin name
           Product: Helma
           Version: CVS trunk
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: Web Support
        AssignedTo: helma-dev@...
        ReportedBy: interface@...


In Antville code I currently have the situation of not being able to render the
desired skin except if I change the case of the skin name.

As there are various Helma specialities involved (an extended Root prototype, a
dynamic skin path and repositories), I'll attach a test app that demonstrates
the bug.

The app needs to be mounted like this:

test
test.appDir = ./apps/test/code
test.repository.0 = ./apps/test/code
#test.repository.1 = ./apps/test/repository


The last line will be enabled after we took a first look at the result without
it. Pointing your browser to the URL of the application should output similar
to the following:

app.repositories:
   FileRepository[/Users/tobi/Projects/helma/./apps/test/repositories-2/code]

res.skinpath:
   /Users/tobi/Projects/helma/./apps/test/repositories-2/code/../layout

app.getSkinfilesInPath(res.skinpath).Site.Site:
   <% #main %>
   This is #main in layout/Site/Site.skin

Rendered output:
   This is #main in layout/Site/Site.skin


All is well. However, if I enable the last line that is commented out above,
restart the app and reload the URL I get this:

app.repositories:
   FileRepository[/Users/tobi/Projects/helma/./apps/test/repositories-2/code]
 
FileRepository[/Users/tobi/Projects/helma/./apps/test/repositories-2/repository]

res.skinpath:
   /Users/tobi/Projects/helma/./apps/test/repositories-2/code/../layout

app.getSkinfilesInPath(res.skinpath).Site.Site:
   <% #main %>
   This is #main in layout/Site/Site.skin

Rendered output:
   This is #main in repository/Root/Site.skin


Here, #main subskin of repository/Root/Site.skin is rendered although neither
res.skinpath contains a path to the repository nor does
app.getSkinFilesInPath() contain the rendered skin contents!

I would expect Helma to render the skin according to the skinpath, ie. to
render layout/Site/Site.skin as she does when the additional repository is not
loaded.

But there is more! If I now change the case of one letter of the argument in
the call for this.renderSkin() (last line of Site.main_action body), suddenly
everything works again as it should:

Site.prototype.main_action = function() {
   // ...
   this.renderSkin("site#main");
}

Rendered output:
   This is #main in layout/Site/Site.skin


How strange... Could it be that there is still some confusion with
uppercase/lowercase equality around in Helma?
