I'm actually running into issues of losing my decorator methods after using
the setTransferObject(TO). I haven't had time to debug yet (as this is not a
production app yet).
I do this inside a "myDecoratedObject" called someobject:
<cfset TO = getTransfer().readByPropertyMap("myDecoratedObject",filter) />
<cfif TO.getIsPersisted()>
<cfset setTransferObject(TO) />
<cfelse>
<!--- code that initializes this object based on the filter and saves it
--->
</cfif>
After running this code, randomly (haven't investigated yet; believe it
somehow related to my filter). "someobject" loses all of its decorator
methods until I clear the transfer cache.
Bob, I read your blog post:
http://www.silverwareconsulting.com/index.cfm/2008/7/22/How-I-Use-Transfer--Part-IX--My-Abstract-Transfer-Decorator-Object--The-Populate-Method
And i think I will try that out whenever I go back to working on my project.
Thanks for the tip!
Mark, any plans for implementing something similar?
Thanks,
John
