I am working on a hook where, if a group is deleted but is a member of another group in a certain folder, delete the sync attribute in that target group before it can sync the emptied out memberships. The source groups are from a loader, so they can go out of scope and get deleted at any point, so it's not normally a manual delete. Maybe there is something built in to do this, but I thought it would work with a hook.

 

I've spent a number of hours trying to track down why a simple membership query works fine to find a group's memberships, all except where it is used in a preDelete hook. After boosting the db trace levels, I can see that the group.delete() is deleting from memberships and group_set (without committing) before calling onPreDelete(). That explains why the membership query looks different within the hook.

 

Any ideas on the approach I should take to this? Maybe this function already exists elsewhere?

 

Thanks
