Setter property not found

[guiyomh]

Hi all,

i use nelmio/alice:^3.0@beta to run with Symfony 3.2. But i have a pb with setter on OneToMany relation.

It is a bug ? Or it's me , i do something bad ?

Hm hard to tell, I would expect it to work. I would recommend you to try debuging the PropertyHydrator, it's using Symfony PropertyAccess under the hood

nevermind the problem is that you have society: '<numberBeetween(1, 3)x @society, so you get an array of Society. The Symfony PropertyAccess will not iterate over your collection to do X calls of addSociety() but expects to find a setSocieties() instead.

I can only suggest you the following:

• Add a method setSocieties()
• Register a custom hydrator (you just need to decorate the existing property hydrator and do what you want in some cases and using the decorated one in the other)

I thought of adding support for it at some point, but it comes with with a performance cost for something that requires domain knowledge and can be easily fixed. If you feel strongly about it, you may still try a PR and show a blackfire profile, if the diff is not big, I'll gladly accept it.
