This demonstrates the issue described in #3354. FieldType no longer has access to the child type's data_class option, which makes it unable to create the default closure for empty_data.

We're still waiting for @bschussek to chime in on #3354, so there is no rush to merge this. Most users are expecting data_class to be all that's necessary to facilitate creation of a new form data object -- it's not clear if that is still the intended functionality after the recent form BC breaks, or if those breaks were an oversight.

If it is to remain intended functionality, I think we can keep this test around after the issue is resolved.

Just to clarify this: the issue is not only about data_class, but options in general not being passed, see also #3327.

Indeed, I'm aware of the general scope of the error. This was just a tangible test case based on the example @merk discussed in #3354. empty_data is one of the few options set by FieldType, so it was a very simple example of the BC break.

Is assertEquals the right choice here? $author wont === $form->getData()..

@merk assertEquals does not use === but perform complex comparisons (more complex than using == btw). The strict comparison is done by assertSame

I made a similar test and implemented a fix in #3512 (I saw this PR only after I wrote the test)

@Burgov, ah I saw your original PR and went along with this because of @stof's comment. Looks like you reached a working solution since then, though 👍

Thanks for this test Jeremy. I will merge it once I'm resolving this issue.

FYI: #3789 includes this commit, so we can close this once that is merged.

@jmikola: AFAIK this PR auto-closes once the commit is included in master.

![Travis Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/bschussek/symfony.png?branch=issue3354)

This PR also introduces a new helper `DefaultOptions` for solving option graphs. It accepts default options to be defined on various layers of your class hierarchy. These options can then be merged with the options passed by the user. This is called *resolving*.

The important feature of this utility is that it lets you define *lazy options*. Lazy options are specified using closures that are evaluated when resolving and thus have access to the resolved values of other (potentially lazy) options. The class detects cyclic option dependencies and fails with an exception in this case.

For more information, check the inline documentation of the `DefaultOptions` class and the UPGRADE file.

@fabpot: Might this be worth a separate component? (in total the utility consists of five classes with two associated tests)

"The important feature of this utility is that it lets you define lazy options. Lazy options are specified using closures"

What about options that are closures? are those differentiated?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

by bschussek at 2012-04-05T08:57:35Z

@beberlei Yes. Closures for lazy options receive a Symfony\Component\Form\Options instance as first argument. All other closures are interpreted as normal values.

I'm wondering if these classes should go in the Config component. My issue with it is that it would add a required dependency to the Config component and that the Config component mixes many different things in it already (the loader part, the resource part, the definition part...)

Sharing the Options class would be great, and its more then one class so why not give it its own Component folder?
Filesystem is just one class, and that has its own folder.

Great job on the class bschussek :clap:

@fabpot Any input?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

by bschussek at 2012-04-10T13:54:13Z

@fabpot Apart from the decision about the final location of DefaultOptions et al., could you merge this soon? This would make my work a bit easier since this one is a blocker.

@bschussek: Can you rebase on master? I will merge afterwards. Thanks.
