[xwiki-users] Back-links for custom class instance properties? More general back-link functionality

[Andreas]

Is there a way to get the back-links for properties of a custom class instances?



The current backlinks infrastructure seems to work only over links of
ordinary Documents.
In particular, on line 1507 of com.xpn.xwiki.storeXWikiHibernateStore,
in the saveLinks function of a recent SVN checkout it says:

                XWikiRenderer renderer =
renderContext.getWiki().getRenderingEngine().getRenderer("wiki");
                renderer.render(doc.getContent(), doc, doc, renderContext);
                links = (List) renderContext.get("links");
How can this be parameterized, so that links contained in property
values of custom Class Instances are being included into the links
variable?



Example:
Class Car:

Instance Space1.car1
  Property "carsThatAreFaster": values: "Space1.car2"

where Space1.car2 is a link to another Car instance. The above
saveLinks function does not update the BackLinks table with the
Space1.car2 link.

Any ideas are appreciated.
Thanks,
Andreas
