Bug #59253
Updated by Anja Leichsenring over 9 years ago
Backport from #29290, see this issue for detailed problem description
When binding Fluid forms to nested objects, Fluid automatically adds
hidden fields with the identifiers of all affected objects so that
the persistence layer can update all objects correctly.
When a form was redisplayed due to property mapping errors, the
identity fields for the nested sub objects were no longer created.
This change fixes this by making sure all identity fields are rendered
recursively also after property mapping errors.
Example code to verify this::
<f:form action="update" object="{user}" objectName="user">
<f:form.textfield property="firstName" />
<f:for each="{user.invoices}" as="invoice" iteration="iteration">
{iteration.cycle}:
<f:form.textfield property="invoices.{iteration.index}.subject" />
</f:for>
<f:form.submit value="update" />
</f:form>
When submitting the form with validation errors, the redisplayed form
should contain a div with a hidden field named
"user[__identity]" for the user and one for each invoice.
