Weird faceted browser behavior with multivalue fields

[Victor Oomens-2]

Hi,

When adding a multi value field value to the filter list, the value will
still be listed as an option. Check out
http://cocoondev.org/main/facetedBrowser/default.
In this demo, click on the daisy collection. Here you'll see that you
can add an unlimited amount of daisy collection filters.

Second, when working with multi value hierarchy fields, filters are not
'added', but overrule each other.

Is this by design or is this a bug?

Victor.

This was fixed in Daisy 2.3. It wasn't really a bug, rather a feature
that wasn't implemented ;-)

Hi,

I've tested this in 2.3, but it still doesn't work as I would expect.

Testcase:

Suppose you have a documenttype with a multi value hierarchy field and this field is configured as facet. Now you can filter on this field, super, but if you select TWO field values, only ONE will show up in the underlying query.

A normal multi value field works OK, I've noticed a 'has all' in the query result.

Possible fix:

In FacetedBrowserApple.java:

In Method filtersToConditions, remove HAS_PATH condition.

In Condition.toString(), replace code with:

            if (values != null && !operator.equals(Operator.HAS_PATH)) {
                StringBuilder result = new StringBuilder();
                result.append(identifier);
                result.append(" has all(");               
                for (int i = 0; i < values.size(); i++) {
                    if (i > 0)
                        result.append(", ");
                    result.append(values.get(i));
                }
                result.append(")");
                return result.toString();
            } else if (values != null) {
                StringBuilder result = new StringBuilder();
                result.append("(");
                for (int i = 0; i < values.size(); i++) {
                    if (i > 0)
                        result.append(" AND ");               
                    result.append("(").append(identifier).append(" ").append(operator.getSyntax()).append(" ").append(values.get(i)).append(")");
                }
                result.append(")");
                return result.toString();
            } else {
                return identifier + " " + operator.getSyntax() + " " + value;
            }
