it appears that the user still creates a new User. it is because I
tell it to do that each time a new request is made.
// Set up a requestVar to track the user object
object userVar extends RequestVar(new User())
So I guess my question is how prevent it from doing that and still
pass a User object to the RequestVar I tried a RequestVar[User] but no
bueno
below is the snippet code for registering a user
user.password = passwordHashed
user.activationCode = activationCode
user.userProfile.user = user
user.userPreferences.user = user
Model.mergeAndFlush(user)
MailUtils.mailConfirmationLetter(user)
S.redirectTo("thank_you", () => { println(user); userVar(user);}
In the mean time I'm going to just extract the email and fullname from
the user and pass it as a request param
user.password = passwordHashed
user.activationCode = activationCode
user.userProfile.user = user
user.userPreferences.user = user
Model.mergeAndFlush(user)
MailUtils.mailConfirmationLetter(user)
val email = user.email
val fullName = user.userProfile.fullName
println("email " + email)
S.redirectTo("thank_you", () => {S.set("email", email); S.set
("fullName", fullName);})
Thanks for helping out
