Description

Hi,
In the toolbox when using the tool "Extract by location" (QGIS Geoalgorithms > Vector selection tools) I have no result and got the following Error message

'QgsVectorLayer' object has no attribute 'field'

With the log

Traceback (most recent call last):|Traceback (most recent call last):|

File "C:\\Users\\PC/.qgis2/python/plugins\\processing\\core\\GeoAlgorithm.py", line 202, in execute|
  self.processAlgorithm(progress)|
  File "C:\\Users\\PC/.qgis2/python/plugins\\processing\\algs\\ftools\\ExtractByLocation.py", line 77, in processAlgorithm|
  writer = output.getVectorWriter(layer.fields(),|

AttributeError: 'QgsVectorLayer' object has no attribute 'fields'|

Project and layers have same CRS,
and the spatial selection works with the ftools "Select by location" or plugin "spatial query"

I don't know how to solve it, and use it in a model.
Thanks

(QGIS via osgeo4w version 2.0.1, W7)
