search() is not called when name_search() not defined

[Cuong]

Hi,

I face an issue with search() method. Let me take an example for more clear. There are 2 classes: A, B

===
class A(osv.osv):

    def search():

    return super(A, self).search(....)

A()

class B(osv.osv):

   _columns = {
      a_id: many2one('A')....
  }

B()
===

Now, I open the form of model B and edit it, I choose a value of a_id. A.search() is not executed.

But if I define name_search() for A as follow:

===
def name_search():
    self.search(...)
    return self.name_get(cr, uid, ids, context=context)
===

Then A.search() is executed due to explicit called by self.search() inside name_get().

This is actual issue when I do some customizations on search of A. For example, I define a domain for a_id as [('code','child_of','abc')]. Without name_get(), it will fail with domain error. With name_get() defined, it can do as expected.

After many tests, I see that search() of a model must be called explicit through other methods (name_get() here), otherwise it will fail, can't do any customizations on domain search.

I think that orm should call search() overriden method of model at any time. my above tests show that orm calls search() of osv.osv.

Thanks,
