problems with retrieving data that was saved outside of a grails webflow
- by callie16
Hi, this is actually connected to an earlier question of mine here.
Anyway, I have 3 domains that look like this:
class A {
...
static hasMany = [ b : B ]
...
}
class B {
...
static belongsTo = [ a : A ]
static hasMany = [ c : C ]
...
}
class C {
...
static belongsTo = [ b : B ]
...
}
In my GSP page, I call an action in the Controller via a remote function in a javascript block (I'm using Dojo so I'm passing data to be saved this way... it's not a form per se so I use JSON for now to pass the data to the Controller). Let's say, I'm calling something like this:
def someAction = {
def jsonArr = [parse the JSON here]
def tmpA = A.get(params.id)
...
def tmpB = new B()
b.someParam = jsonArr.someParam
...
def tmpC = new C()
tmpC.cParam = jsonArr.cParam
tmpB.addToC(tmpC)
tmpB.save(flush: true) //this may or may not be here but I'm adding it for the sake of completeness
tmpA.addToB(tmpB)
tmpA.save(flush: true)
// NOTE: If I check here via println or whatnot, tmpA has a tmpB which has a tmpC... in other words, the data got saved. It's also in the DB.
redirect(action: 'order' ...)
}
Then comes the fun part. Here's the webflow sample:
def orderFlow = {
...
someStateIShouldEndUpIn {
on("next") { // or on previous... doesn't matter
def anId = params.id
def currA = A.get(anId) // this does NOT return a null value
def testB = currA.b // this DOES return a null value
}.to("somePage")
...
}
...
}
Any ideas on why this happens? Moreover, when I dump the data of currA, b=null... instead of b=[] or b=[contents of tmpB].
Any help would be seriously appreciated... been at this for a couple of days now...
Thanks!
