Legacy code?

[Flowman]

Hi guys,

I'm trying to figure these lines out.

https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/blob/e82bed675b4127443c14bc52eb8245e865e14154/administrator/components/com_content/controllers/article.php#L52

https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/blob/e82bed675b4127443c14bc52eb8245e865e14154/administrator/components/com_banners/controllers/banner.php#L40

They exist in all Joomla components, but there is no way to trigger them.

Tried to filter by a category in the articles view and then create an article. Question if it is they way it is supposed to work, or when you call the link directly with a filter on it?

Cheers

Peter
