Chtml::resolvename

Am I doing something wrong?

If I call CActiveForm->labelEx, which ultimately calls CHtml::resolveName, and $model refers to an array of objects (because it’s a HAS_MANY relation), then of course get_class fails. What should I be doing in this case?

Hi Heyho,

what exactly you want to do?

Given


    public function relations()

    {

        // NOTE: you may need to adjust the relation name and the related

        // class name for the relations automatically generated below.

        return array(

            'emails' => array(self::HAS_MANY, 'Email', 'person_id'),

// etc.

I would like to get the label related to that relation. Using $model->emails causes problems because the framework assumes if it is getting passed a model it must be individual one. So, ok, knowing it is an array I could pass $model->emails[0] but then what should I do if there are no elements in the array? The whole concept seems messed up.

Hi again,

did you check this?


$form->labelEx($model, 'emails.theAttributeThatYouWant');

where $model->emails[x]->theAttributeThatYouWant label exists as attribute even instance emails is null
