ERROR:
The form's view data is expected to be of type scalar,
array or an instance of \ArrayAccess, but is an instance of class My\SchoolBundle\Entity\School.
You can avoid this error by setting the "data_class" option to "My\SchoolBundle\Entity\School"
or by adding a view transformer that transforms an instance of class My\SchoolBundle\Entity\School to scalar,
array or an instance of \ArrayAccess.
.
Then:
My\ExampleBundle\Form\Type\FriendType:
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
//...
$builder->add('school', 'genemu_jqueryselect2_hidden', array(
'data_class' => 'My\SchoolBundle\Entity\School',
));
ERROR:
ContextErrorException: Catchable Fatal Error: Object of class My\SchoolBundle\Entity\School could not be converted to string

// View of Twig is simple like this:
{{ form_widget(friend.school) }}
.
Then:
I do not use the GenemuFormBundle, I tried to create a personally data transformer.
$transformer = new SchoolTransformer($this->entityManager);
$builder->add(
$builder->create('school',
'hidden',
array(
'by_reference' => false,
'required' => false,
'attr' => array(
'class' => 'select2'
),
)
)->addModelTransformer($transformer)
);
ERROR: This is same error above.
.
So I think usually way is entity field, but I want to apply a select2 for a large amount data.
However, it has failed in generating a hidden field of form.
Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
