Part of the problem was the primary designation. However my distinction still
holds even if we are talking about the bizobj you are working with.
I will try to let the code speak for me:
bizobj.save()
def save(self, startTransaction=True):
"""Save any changes that have been made in the current row.
If the save is successful, the saveAll() of all child bizobjs will be
called as well.
"""
bizobj.saveAll()
def saveAll(self, startTransaction=True):
"""Saves all changes to the bizobj and children."""
form.save()
def save(self, dataSource=None):
""" Ask the bizobj to commit its changes to the backend."""
<snip>
if self.SaveAllRows:
bizobj.saveAll()
else:
bizobj.save()
<snip>
A save() called from a bizobj only saves changes to the current row and
child bizobjs associated with that row. A saveAll() called from a bizobj saves
all changes to the bizobj and its children. So calling save() from a bizobj
does not
call saveAll() on that object, only on its children.
When save() is called from a form its behavior is dependent on the SaveAllRows
setting.
This is where I was mistaken in my original post, as I assumed it always did a
bizobj.saveAll().
