Populate User Object

Tuesday 29 August 2006 9:58:16 pm

Hello.

I'm trying to create, populate and store a custom user obect class in php for a custom registration module. Class definition has user account attribute, and I can create and save the object, but only the user account object seems to be stored, none of the other attributes. Here's an example snippet of what I'm doing:

// Create and instantiate user object

// Then ...

$contentObjectAttributes = & $contentObject->contentObjectAttributes();

$contentObjectAttributes[0]->setAttribute('data_int', $attribute1);
$contentObjectAttributes[0]->store();

$contentObjectAttributes[1]->setAttribute('data_int', $attribute2);
$contentObjectAttributes[1]->store();

$userAccountObject = eZUser::fetch($contentObjectAttributes[2]->ContentObjectID);
$userAccountObject->setInformation($contentObject->attribute('id' ), $username, $email, $password, $confirmPassword);
$userAccountObject->store();

$contentObject->setAttribute('status', EZ_VERSION_STATUS_DRAFT);
$contentObject->store();

// Publish object and do some other stuff ...

How do I need to populate the user account and the other data attributes so that they're all stored?

Hello.

Thanks for the info you sent. I reviewed the threads you referenced, and I'll try a few different things based on what I saw there. However, I don't think the problem is in the publish step (though I could be wrong). Here's the above code including the code I use to publish the object:

// Create and instantiate user object

// Then ...

$contentObjectAttributes = & $contentObject->contentObjectAttributes();

$contentObjectAttributes[0]->setAttribute('data_int', $attribute1);
$contentObjectAttributes[0]->store();

$contentObjectAttributes[1]->setAttribute('data_int', $attribute2);
$contentObjectAttributes[1]->store();

$userAccountObject = eZUser::fetch($contentObjectAttributes[2]->ContentObjectID);
$userAccountObject->setInformation($contentObject->attribute('id' ), $username, $email, $password, $confirmPassword);
$userAccountObject->store();

$contentObject->setAttribute('status', EZ_VERSION_STATUS_DRAFT);
$contentObject->store();


// Publish it
include_once ('lib/ezutils/classes/ezoperationhandler.php');
$operationResult = eZOperationHandler :: execute('content', 'publish', array (
	'object_id' => $contentObject->attribute('id' ),
	'version' => 1
));

// Send notification emails and redirect

The object seems to be published correctly. What's not working correctly is that attribute data is not being saved correctly. The only attribute that is saved correctly is the user account. Do I need to get the user account by reference (same as the contentObjectAttributes array)? Like this:

$userAccountObject = & eZUser::fetch($contentObjectAttributes[2]->ContentObjectID);
