PHP : Copy relation list data from an object to another ?

Tuesday 05 April 2005 5:52:54 am

Hi,

I need to copy the content of a relation list of an object to another object in a cronjob.

Basically, I have a custom class folder with a relation list of users. I would like to have the same relation lists in the custom class files in that folder.

What I can currenly do is get the relation list $contentObjectAttributes of the folder and the file. I tried to copy directly the "data_text" from one to the other ... Nice try but it didn't work :(

Should I copy the relations items one by one ? If so, how to do it ?

Any hint is appreciated.

I hope this time my message will be heard :)

Hi,

I use the method described in this post : http://ez.no/community/forum/developer/add_object_relation_attribute_type_within_a_php_script :

$content = $objectRelationListAttribute->content();
$priority = 1;
foreach ( $objectsToRelate as $objectToRelate )
{
   $content['relation_list'][] = eZObjectRelationListType::appendObject( $objectToRelate->attribute( 'id' ), $priority, $objectRelationListAttribute );
   $objectRelationListAttribute->setContent( $content );
   $objectRelationListAttribute->store();
   $priority++;
}

but it does not work,
can you describe in more details your method which is working ?

Thanks for help
