Loading a newly created object

[chiurlo]

Hello!

Thanks for a really helpful module. Apologies if the answer to this question is really obvious, but how can I access/load an object I've just created? For example:

$thing = Jelly::factory('thing') ->set(array('name' => $name, 'description' => $description, ))->save();

$thing_id = $thing->id();

This results in an error:

ErrorException [ Notice ]: Trying to get property of non-object

The object is successfully saved to the database, and I can access it later, just not within the current function. Where am I going wrong?

Thanks, Alison

I think the issue here might be that save() has recently changed to allow it's return value to be checked for errors. (Although I could be wrong since I'm not fully up to date with latest changes and you haven't said which branch you are using).

If that is the case, then it just means you can't call save() in a chain like that. Does this work:

$thing = Jelly::factory('thing')->set(array(...));
$thing->save();
echo $thing->id();

Thanks so much -- that did the trick!
