autocompleteusers - customselectadmin together are broken? is trac guilty or one of the plugins?

[rupert thurner]

when enabling autocompleteusers we get the following error:

Trac detected an internal error:
AttributeError: 'CustomSelectPanel' object has no attribute
'get_htdocs_dirs'

on loading the javascript:
projects/myproject/chrome/autocompleteusers/js/autocomplete.js

if we disable http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/CustomSelectAdminPlugin,
http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/AutocompleteUsersPlugin works.

who is repsonsible for this, the plugin interface or one of the
plugins?

It looks like CustomSelectPanel implements ITemplateProvider[1] but doesn't implement the .get_htdocs_dirs method of the ITemplateProvider interface[2].  Is that method required by ITemplateProvider implementations?

You might try adding a noop `def get_htdocs_dirs(self): return []` to the class in customselectadmin.py to see if that fixes it.

thanks, this fixed it. i tried to commit it as well, but it seems i
have no rights, so i created http://trac-hacks.org/ticket/5587.

but i am wondering why trac queries the directory for static resources
which does not exist on every mouse click, or in this case, when
entering a name? i would have expected that it retrieves all the
directories when switching on the plugins, or starting up the server?
