Am stumped by the same problem. I have a form that corresponds to the
main db object, and in it i have a bunch of embedded forms with
related objects. I need the ID generated for the main object to pass
to the related objects. The main object is being saved fine (I see it
in the DB), but when i try to do this 'this->getObject()-getId()' I
get back a null value. I have done the exact same thing with another
form and it is working fine. What am I doing wrong? Here is the code
in my embedded form?
public function saveEmbeddedForms($con = null, $forms= null)
{
.......
.......
foreach($receivers as $reciever){
$msg_reciever = new MessageReciever();
$msg_reciever->setMessageId($this->getObject()-
>getId());
$msg_reciever->setRecieverId($reciever->getId
());
$msg_reciever->setStatus($this->getObject()-
>getStatus());
$msg_reciever->save();
}
}
and this is how i embed the form
$recivers_form = new MessageRecieverForm($this->getObject());
$this->embedForm('recievers', $recievers_form);
I don't know if this the best way to do this, but, by God, it has
worked before..
I hope someone can get to the bottom of this..
cheers,
