[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-1800?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugi... ] Brian Stansberry updated WFCORE-1800: ------------------------------------- Description: If an attribute defines an {{OperationStepHandler}} the global {{read-attribute}} operation will execute the handler regardless if the resource exists. -Here's an example that will successfully execute and return the name {{invalid}} for the {{name}} attribute even though the resource does not exist. /path=invalid:read-attribute(name=name) - (Note: example ^^^ no longer fails as the specific OSH for the read does the resource check.) For attributes that use the default means of reading the attribute value the {{context.readResource(PathAddress.EMPTY_ADDRESS, false)}} is already invoked which will cause a failure. For attributes which define a custom read OSH the outcome is unpredictable as the existence of the resource is not validated before invoking the OSH. The attached patch simply invokes the {{context.readResource(PathAddress.EMPTY_ADDRESS, false)}} before the invocation of the custom OSH. was: If an attribute defines an {{OperationStepHandler}} the global {{read-attribute}} operation will execute the handler regardless if the resource exists. -Here's an example that will successfully execute and return the name {{invalid}} for the {{name}} attribute even though the resource does not exist. {code} /path=invalid:read-attribute(name=name) {code}- (Note: example ^^^ no longer fails as the specific OSH for the read does the resource check.)
