Something must be changed in $main for a persist action to make sense. I
assume the change to $main has happened e.g. in the frontend by a
form, which is then submitted to this action. Alright so far.

But what misses to me most clearly in this snippet, is the repository or
more precisely lack of usage of any repository method.

If the object $main is already in the Persistence (database…), you need
something like a

/**
 * Repository for Mains
 *
 * \DoShell\TouristBbhotel\Domain\Repository\MainRepository
 * @inject
 */
protected $mainRepository;


/**
 * action show
 *
 * @param \DoShell\TouristBbhotel\Domain\Model\Main $main
 * @return void
 */
public function showAction(\DoShell\TouristBbhotel\Domain\Model\Main
$main) {
	// did some changes to $main in the frontend?
	$this->view->assign('main', $main);
	$this->mainRepository->update($main);
}


Changed objects (that are updated/inserted/… in the Repository) are
automatically persisted after the action, so no need for the explicit
->persistAll() call here.

Cheers,

Ludwig

PS: Are you sure you want to *change* something in an action called
"show" and to call your objects "main"? Not that I know your domain,
but from the outside this looks confusing to mee.
