Leap2A import ignores studentid internal artefact

[Darren James Harkness]

When importing a student's LEAP2A file in Mahara 1.2.6, the studentid internal artefact appears to be ignored, and no data is stored in the user's usr.studentid field in the database.

We rely on the value stored in usr.studentid for some additional functionality in our installation, so this causes noticeable issues.

Below is the relevant XML from the leap2a.xml file (with dummy student ID):

        <leap:persondata
            mahara:artefactplugin="internal"
            mahara:artefacttype="studentid"
            leap:field="other"

            leap:label="Student ID"

        >11111111</leap:persondata>

Hi Penny,

Temporarily assigning this to you because I'm wondering whether this is something you might have fixed in the Leap2A work you did on 1.2 or 1.3.

Cheers,
Francois

No I have no idea about that sorry, never looked at that code before now.
I had a quick look at htdocs/artefact/internal/import/leap/lib.php (line
436 or so) and can't see any obvious good reason this doesn't work, unless
that method isn't being called.

I can get a working copy set up and try and debug this but not for a week
or so since I'm in the process of moving right now. If someone wants to
have a look before then I'm happy to help.

Attached is the leap2a file being generated by our instance of Mahara 1.2.6 in case it's useful for replication. This is a vanilla user on the system.
