Bug (1.8.2) : Deleting map with the API

[sebastien]

There is a bug when you try to delete a map with the API. Elements concerning this map are not deleted in the other maps.

In the file class.cmap.php, line 677, I think you have to change :
' WHERE '.DBcondition('sysmapid',$sysmapids).
by
' WHERE '.DBcondition('elementid',$sysmapids).

Thank you for the API. With python, it's a real pleasure to interface our system with zabbix.

I don't know if this is the right place to post a new feature but I added the deleteElements function in the file class.cmap.php. Is it possible to add it in the next version ?

/**
 * Delete Element from map
 *
 * {@source}
 * @access public
 * @static
 * @since 1.8
 * @version 1
 *
 * @param array $selements multidimensional array with selement objects
 * @param array $selements[0, ...]['selementid'] selementid to delete
 */
    public static function deleteElements($selements){
        $selements = zbx_toArray($selements);

        $selementids = array();
        foreach($selements as $num => $selement){
            $selementids[] = $selement['selementid'];
        }
        
        self::BeginTransaction(__METHOD__);

        $result = delete_sysmaps_element($selementids);

        $result = self::EndTransaction($result, __METHOD__);

        if($result)
            return true;
        else{
            self::setError(__METHOD__);
            return false;
        }
    }

1. You should post it at "Patches" thread.
2. Such method will be added but in future, map elements manipulation will flow through Map::update method.
