[TYPO3-mvc] New Property Mapper / persisting nested form objects

[Tim Schoch | GSTALTIG]

Hi Alex

Yep, but that works well only if you know how many objects there are. I extended that code a little to handle an unknown amount.
This is the final code:

protected function initializeCreateUpdateAction() {
if ( $this->request->hasArgument( 'foo' ) ) {
      $foo = $this->request->getArgument( 'foo' );
      $count = count( $foo['datas'] );
      $this->arguments['foo']->getPropertyMappingConfiguration()->allowCreationForSubProperty('datas');
      $this->arguments['foo']->getPropertyMappingConfiguration()->allowModificationForSubProperty('datas');
      for( $i = 0; $i < $count; $i++ ) {
        $this->arguments['foo']->getPropertyMappingConfiguration()->allowCreationForSubProperty('datas.'. $i );
        $this->arguments['foo']->getPropertyMappingConfiguration()->allowModificationForSubProperty('datas.'. $i );
      }
    }
}

This again works only if the POST arguments are numbered sequential «0, 1, 2, ... N».
However it will fail if the key is for example the uid or a string.

  Hi Tim!
  
  I think I found how you solved the problem back then:
  
  ->allowCreationForSubProperty('datas.0');

  Though it's an ugly workaround - it also works for me - thanks a lot!
  
  kind regards
  Alex
