[TYPO3-mvc] initializeObject() pointless?

[Martin Kutschker]

Hi!

If you construct a new object or unserialize an object this method is called by default.
Unserializing also happens when the object is reconstructed from DB. Unfortunately this happens
*before* the properties are thawed. This means that you can only do anything unrelated to the actual
values of properties.

But why would I need that? What I really need is a reconstituteObject() method called by after thawing.

Why do I need this? Because the data mapper maps everything automatically and I cannot use objects
as properties unless they are persisted domain objects. Which is in my case not true as I use custom
value objects for TCA select items. That is I want to. But I cannot since ExtBase won't let me
create the objects and won't create them for me :(
