Hi

Since updating to RC2 recently, i've noticed that context components permanently show as "overridden" in the Features interface. If you have a context in an existing feature (ie built prior RC2), then update the feature (via 'drush fu' for example), you will see that the context reports as being overridden by Features.

Checking the diff, the only change seems to be in the lines

-  $context = new stdClass;
+  $context = new stdClass();

Any help/suggestions appreciated, otherwise it might be a case of rolling back to RC1 for me

Drupal version: 7.12
Features version: 7.x-1.0-rc1

This is a flaw in how features determines overridden state. CTools reports the flag specifically but Features is not using it. Nothing we can do about that.

Ok well the issue still remains so i dont see the sense in closing it.

If its more applicable to Features i'll move it there for review.

Can you install the latests 1.x-dev version of Features to verify the problem still exists? rc1 had an issue with context.

This might be relevant: #1505044: features_var_export adds additional prefix to multiline strings contained in objects

Thanks for the input.

As far as i can tell, upgrading to latest Features dev release fixes the issue. I'm also now running the newer version of CTools that was released recently, ie 7.x-1.0

Needs review implies there's a patch

being that this sounds fixed, sounds like it was a dup of an earleir issue.
