In most cases the following use is sufficient
$form->setModel('SomeModel');
If you want to import fields from multiple models, you can use this:
$ctl = $form->importFields($model,array('name','surname');
and if you want to use your own class based on this one, syntax is:
$ctl = $form->add('Controller_MVCForm_Derived')->importFields($model,array('name','surname'));
You can subsequently call importField() to add additional fields such as:
$form_field = $ctl->importField('age');
which will return newly added form field.
function importField($field)
{
$formfield = parent::importField($field);
if (!$formfield) {
return $formfield;
}
$field = $this->model->getElement($field);
if ($field->hint()) {
$formfield->setFieldHint($field->hint());
}
if ($field->subtitle()) {
$formfield->owner->add('Order')->move($formfield->owner->add('H3')->set($field->subtitle()), 'before', $field)->now();
}
if ($field->intro()) {
$formfield->aboveField()->add('P')->set($field->intro());
//,'before',$field)
//->now();
}
$formfield->owner->add('HR');
}
