Locked file in folder view

[steinm]

In standard, the fact that some file is locked is only visible in document view (of the locked file), which is not very usable.

This modification adds an icon of locked file in folder view and in the "title text" is the lock owner name (see "locked_file_preview" - ).

To implement modification:

• copy attached lock.png to out/images :
  
  
• add new text item ("lock_by") to language file:
  
  PHP Code:

  $text["lock_by"] = "Locked by"; 

  
  
  
• apply the patch to file out/out.ViewFolder.php:
  After line 125 ($status = $latestContent->getStatus();) , add line:
  
  PHP Code:

  $doc_obj = getDocument($docID); 

  Change line 136 (print "<td>".getOverallStatusText($status["status"])."</td>";) to:
  
  PHP Code:

      print "<td>";
    if ( $doc_obj->isLocked() ) {
        print "<img src=\"".UI::getImgPath("lock.png")."\" title=\"". getMLText("lock_by").": ".$doc_obj->getLockingUser()->getFullName()."\"> ";
    }
    print getOverallStatusText($status["status"])."</td>";
