Hello
I read the thatsquality.com tutorial on Symfony-1.1 forms but apparently
their examples do not cover the saving of embedded forms. While trying it out
myself I found a solution but am still wondering if this is the intended way.
It seems a bit superfluous to me that I have to cache the names of the
embedded forms in $sub_forms to update them one by one myself although
symfony should be aware of them and update them in $main_form->bind()
automatically, or?
Do you have suggestions or pointers to better examples?
bye,

public function executeEdit() {
// load data from database
$invheader = InvheaderPeer::retrieveByPK(
$this->getRequestParameter('id') );
// create an empty form+subforms skeleton
$sub_forms = array();
$this->main_form = new InvheaderForm($invheader);
foreach ($invheader->getMyinvlines() as $myinvline) {
$sub_form = new MyinvlineForm($myinvline);
$sub_form_name = 'myinvline-' . $myinvline->getId();
$sub_forms[$sub_form_name] = $sub_form;
$this->main_form->embedForm($sub_form_name, $sub_form);
}
if ($this->getRequest()->isMethod('post')) {
$invheader_postdata = $this->getRequestParameter('invheader');
// Update main form
$this->main_form->bind($invheader_postdata);
if ($this->main_form->isValid()) {
$this->main_form->updateObject();
$this->main_form->save();
$this->getUser()->setFlash('message', 'main_form saved');
// Update sub forms
foreach ($sub_forms as $sub_form_name => $sub_form) {
$sub_form->bind($invheader_postdata[$sub_form_name]);
if ($sub_form->isValid()) {
$sub_form->updateObject();
$sub_form->save();
$this->getUser()->addFlash('message', "subform
$sub_form_name saved");
}
}
}
}
// Auch bei Fehlern das "editSuccess" Template nehmen!
return sfView::SUCCESS;
}
