In SimpleAPI and SofaPython3 (surely XML too),
if a data link is set to a data of a not-yet created BaseObject, isSet is not true.

In the newly created tests, the last one would be false without the fix in BaseData

Maybe but It was not my intention 😅 I got the problem in SofaPython3 for our own component.

This should fix #4911

It would have been convenient to have a test related to this problem 👼

auto* objdata4 = obj4->findData("printLog");
ASSERT_TRUE(objdata4->isSet());

Might be good to add a test with a wrong link ?

done.

Actually this remark leads to interesting consequences:

  • there is no message/warning whatsoever if the link is wrong (i.e point to the non-existing data). This is understandable if setting a link a posteriori is a feature;
  • more philosophical : should it be still isSet() if it is wrong ? but the link itself (no the pointed data) is set after all;
  • the only way to know the link was wrong is to test if getParent() is null... which would mean ideally that it should be tested every time...

To me this is the result of a not very well defined/consistent behavior.
Actually I'm very unconvident on the general use of links that are searched "a posteriori" and wonder if we shouldn't remove and replace that by a different (and explicit mechanism).
