Unable to save changes to array fields

[codedmonkey]

Hi, thanks for the great bundle. It seems that after a recent change we can't save changes to arrays and JSON array fields as it throws the following error:

In ArrayType.php line 65:

  [Symfony\Component\Debug\Exception\ContextErrorException]
  Warning: unserialize() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given

I looked at the convertToPHPValue method and it doesn't seem to be particular useful in this case, as it seems to expect the given value to come directly from the database, not from the entity, hopefully that helps.

Thanks!

Facing the same issue at the moment, in my case, I'm trying to save multiple roles to a user, which are an array, and I'm running in to the same issue.

Reverting back to the 1.0.6 release seems to have fixed the issue at the moment.

From going through the commits for that release, looks like this change is the culprit

@codedmonkey @dajoykill sorry for this late reply, you're right, I confirm the issues you're running into.
As @dajoykill says, you can downgrade to 1.0.6 while I'm working a a fix. Thanks for your patience.

[DamienHarper]

@codedmonkey and @dajoykill: I pushed a fix on the master branch, can you confirm it fixes the issue for you?

[codedmonkey]

Yes seems to work great! Many thanks.

[m-rsmn]

@DamienHarper I also confirm, the fix works. I suppose you'll push this in to a new release eventually?

[DamienHarper]

@dajoykill sure, I'll do it shortly

1.0.8 is released fixing these issues.
