searching bug tasks by linked_branches not exported in the API

[Brian Murray]

Its possible to search for bug tasks that have, or do not have, linked branches but this is not exported in the API. This would be tremendously helpful.

[Brian Murray (brian-murray)]

This is likely fixed by the branch attached to LP: #510704.

Abel, can you help Brian get his branch cleaned up and landed? Weren't you already working on this a little?

[Brian Murray (brian-murray)]

I've a new merge proposal available for review at https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~brian-murray/launchpad/api-export-bug-linked-branches-take2/+merge/20592.

I've changed the schema for linked_branches from IHasLinkedBranches to IBranch and that seems to be working now.

[Brian Murray (brian-murray)]

My branch has been merged and landed now but I'm still not really clear how it will fix this bug. It seems that something more is needed.

[Abel Deuring (adeuring)]

Sorry, I misunderstood this bug: Its not about exporting the property IBug.linked_branches to the API -- it is about exporting the parameter linked_branches of IHasBugs.searchTasks(). I'll take care of it.
