Extension Permission Hook Changes with 4.6

[lee.gooding]

I upgraded my test server to 4.6 and now permissions for my extensions are not loading properly. I get the following error on the drupal permissions page:
Warning: array_shift() expects parameter 1 to be array, string given in civicrm_permission() (line 66 of C:\xampp\htdocs\drupal\sites\all\modules\civicrm\drupal\civicrm.module).
Warning: array_shift() expects parameter 1 to be array, string given in civicrm_permission() (line 67 of C:\xampp\htdocs\drupal\sites\all\modules\civicrm\drupal\civicrm.module).

The permissions rows for my extensions are there, but there is no string showing for the permission name.

I tried changing how my permissions are set by modeling the format in CiviVolunteer, but that didn't seem to fix it. What am I missing?

Thanks!

Solved my own problem. It had to do with a lack of description for the permission. In previous versions this would not throw an error. Now I use the following when setting my permissions:

 

Code: [Select]

       $prefix = ts('CiviCRM SmallGroup Tracking', array('domain' => 'org.namelessnetwork.smallgrouptracking')) . ': ';
        $permissions = array(
            'access SmallGroupTracking' => array(
                $prefix . ts('access SmallGroupTracking'),
                ts('View and select discipleship community groups, small groups, and add attendance records'),
            ),
            'edit SmallGroupTracking' => array(
                $prefix . ts('edit SmallGroupTracking'),
                ts('Manage the creation/deletion of Discipleship communities & small groups'),
            ),
        );

Lee - A fix was submitted today by Andrew Hunt to accommodate both situations (permissions with or without description).

It looks like you've updated your extension to pass arrays in any case, but wanted to update this here for others.
