attaching file to wiki page does not register as changed page

[Phil Mocek <pmocek-edgewall-tracwiki@…>]

When a file is attached to a wiki page, the page does not show a change in its page history and the page does not show up on the list of RecentChanges or timeline.

For example, I attached a file to SandBox/SubPage on 2005-03-10, but that page's history indicates that it was last modified on 2004-11-16.

#1498 was marked as duplicate of this one. See also #2259 which is about nearly the same issue, but for tickets.

This ticket will require some general changes on the way the attachment changes interfere with the main resource changes, and I think it's too late to do that in 0.10 now.

Post-poning.

#2725 is similar (Ticket changetime is not updated with an attachment) and has a patch.

[Christian Boos]

I closed #2725 as a duplicate of this one, as the data model changes will affect the attachments for any resources (wiki pages, tickets, and by then, the milestone and probably a few others…).

Should the attachment module really have such consequences for its 'parent' on the model level? With the current (0.11b1+) status of disconnected resources and loosly-coupled code, I suppose it is up the parent resource to decide if it wants to register the change in any way.

So, if the Wiki wants to save a new version of itself to mark the event, can't it just implement the IAttachmentChangeListener and log a new version with a comment that attachment 'somefile.txt' is added or deleted?

That should then of course trigger a call to IWikiChangeListener, show the new version in timeline and so on…

I'm using Trac 0.11.7. Any idea to fix the issue "ticket changetime is not updated with an attachment" on this version?

I have tried the patch attached on ticket #2725. But it have following error, AttributeError: 'Attachment' object has no attribute 'parent_type'

Keeping on the long term plan (comment:4).
