[TYPO3-mvc] updateAction not saving field extending another Model

[Søren Malling]

I ended up solving the problem in another way, and I would like to
know whether to file a bug report on this - here goes:

class Tx_Groupmembers_Domain_Model_Member extends
Tx_Extbase_Domain_Model_FrontendUser

In my model I created a property called "number". This property was
ment to be used in the fe_users table as a member number. I then
manually write the field in ext_tables.php and ext_tables.sql so that
fe_users get extended.

I create the field in fe_users table with the name
tx_groupmembers_domain_model_member_number (all lowercase) due to the
naming convention ( question #1: is this the correct naming convention
used?)

The field and get shown in my backend when editing a fe_user and i can
save data to the field. So far, so good, in the backend..

I then create a Fluid template with the object "member" (my domain
model containing the above mentioned property) and creates a field
with the following code

				<label for="number">Member number</label><br />
				<f:form.textbox property="number" /><br /> (question #2: is this
the correct way to call the field, using the property name and not the
database field name?)

I expect this to show the content of the property "member" but i shows
blank, even though the field (with the long name) got a value. If i
submits the form without content the @validate notEmpty get handled
and a error shows. If i put som random content, the form get saved
with succes but still no data in the field (not in frontend nor in
backend). I then try to change the name of the field (in my fluid
template) to the long name (tx_groupmembers_....) but still no luck,
as there is no property in my model named that.

As a proof of concept i decied to change the name of the database
field to "number" and the same with the TCA definition and then reload
the Fluid form and then i got the content of the field and can save to
the database with success.

Now my question #3 is, is this a naming convention bug, a model bug, a
personal bug or something else?

Best regards,

Søren
