Hi everyone,

Is it normal that call of the method dbVersion change the result of the 
method dbVersionDifferentFields ?

For instance the code :

       final String currentExtension = group.getAttributeOrNull(EXTENSION);
       LOGGER.debug(" (1) ==> " + group.dbVersionDifferentFields());

       final Group previousValues = group.dbVersion();
       LOGGER.debug(" (2) ==> " + group.dbVersionDifferentFields());

       final String previousExtension = 
previousValues.getAttributeOrNull(EXTENSION);
       LOGGER.debug(" (3) ==> " + group.dbVersionDifferentFields());

Produces the output:

    (1) ==> [attribute__Définition, modifyTime, name, displayName, 
extension, displayExtension, description]
    (2) ==> [attribute__Définition, modifyTime, name, displayName, 
extension, displayExtension, description]
    (3) ==> [modifyTime]

I am trying to use the dbVersionDifferentField to determine when my 
hooks should be executed and I have several tests but the first one 
changes the results of the other tests. I think I could work with a 
clone of the set returned by dbVersionDifferentFields but I would like 
to understand.

I have also noticed that a single change in a group (via the grouper-UI) 
can trigger several time the same method in a GroupHooks class. One time 
with the attributes and one time with only the modifyTime attribute.


Thanks,
Arnaud.
