[TYPO3-mvc] extbase: how to retrieve the uid of the last inserted object?

[Nikolas Hagelstein]

Hi,

One way is to enforce persistence and fetch the uid afterwards e.g.:

$newItem = t3lib_div::makeInstance('Tx_Whatever_Domain_Model_Item');
$newItem = set...
...

 //Assuming $itemRepository is your item repository ;).
$itemRepository->add($newItem);

 //Enforce persistence
$persistenceManager =
t3lib_div::makeInstance('Tx_Extbase_Persistence_Manager');
$persistenceManager->persistAll();

$uid = $newItem->getUid();


Voila....

BTW: The need to know the uid often is an indicator for akward domain design
....

Cheers,
Nikolas
