[Flow] Flow 2.0 and roles

[François Suter]

Hi all,

I got help in the IRC channel, so here's the solution for anyone up with 
the same problem.

In my updateAction, I was just passing the array of strings representing 
the roles from the form to the \TYPO3\Flow\Security\Account::setRoles() 
method.

These roles need to be converted to objects first, with something like:

$roleObjects = new \Doctrine\Common\Collections\ArrayCollection();
foreach ($filteredRoles as $aRole) {
	$roleObjects->add($this->policyService->getRole($aRole));
}
$account->setRoles($roleObjects);

Cheers
