(Potential) Issue with setFieldsToUpdate() method

Describe the bug and add screenshots

Regarding the setFieldsToUpdate(), there is something that I don't test yet and that we need to verify cause I couldn't see it.

It's seems that once you have call this method, it's never emptied after an update or a save. So, if you want to re-use the same ObjectModel later with a full save, it will not save all fields.

Hi @PrestaEdit

Thank for your report, This issue is too technical for me, ping @PrestaShop/prestashop-core-developers, can someone please reproduce this issue ?

Thanks

@PrestaEdit We can add

$this->setFieldsToUpdate(null);

somewhere around here:

https://github.com/PrestaShop/PrestaShop/blob/434137b764ab0faa9de420a0a8ec54a039165dd0/classes/ObjectModel.php#L871

and it would be solved.

I agree, should be good :+1:

Thank you for the ping. We need to create a module so we can have an easy scenario to reproduce (if needed).

If there is an issue, I think we could agree on having a fix in the next patch.

On the other hand, should we really reset the fields before the hook? Hook represents the action that was done, so in case the update() action was done with the "fieldsToUpdate" set, maybe its alright to leave them intact and let the module decide what to do with them (or decide what to do depending on them)? e.g. new product page has lots of "update" actions firing during single product update. Maybe module needs to know which was the action that updated the name or the reference etc. ?

Also, just a note - if you try to update() the same object in the hookActionObjectModelUpdateAfter, you will get into infinite loop (the update hook will fire over and over again), so maybe the issue is irrelevant in this case and we should indeed just reset the fields after the hook?
