Updating field value and update
26 November 2009 at 2:30am
Hi,
I have code that is as follows...
$childObject = DataObject::get_by_id($this->sourceClass, $ID);
$childObject->myfield = $new_data;
$childObject->write();and the $new data is not getting to the written back to the database.
I have tried $childObject->forceChange(); before the write and tried $childObject->write(false,false,true); to force the write to write... I have also output the $childObject->myfield after being set and can confirm $new_data is in there...
...what else can I do to ensure I write this data back?
Any help much appreciated.
Barry

Arrrrggh! This is my third thread and replied to all of them fixing them soon after raising it.
Turns out 'myfield' in $childObject->myfield = $new_data; was spelt incorrectly and there is no failure, no report of setting a field that doesn't exist... I guess this is a great feature that I did not know about!
Next time maybe I'll need some help from you guys!

No no no, self help is good! Glad you got it sorted out, I know I'd do this all the time if it wasn't for auto-complete in NetBeans.

Thanks Dale, I am using Notepad++ with an FTP plugin at the moment... not the best IDE... I was (as soon as a new project starts up) start going to use PHPEclipse with code completion, goto declaration and debugging... how would that compare with NetBeans?

They are very similar in capabilities. I prefer NetBeans because all the goodies (SVN, SQL browser, xdebug) are part of the core platform, and Eclipse always makes me install a dozen plugins to get it to a usable state.
Both will be a great improvement over your current setup. More at http://doc.silverstripe.org/doku.php?id=tools
