Formated value on DataObject cause error (value is changed)

[Agus Suhartono]

Hi

I have value from **numeric operation**, and when i passing it to fields array and save use BizDataObj::insertRecord(), the saved value is changed,

i trace it, and found this case 

$this->m_BizRecord->setInputRecord($recArr);

      ==> $realVal = BizSystem::typeManager()->formattedStringToValue($bizField->m_Type, $bizField->m_Format, $value);

so, my numeric value *regarded as* formated value, so the value changed.

I think this concept is not good
formated value is UI domain, data domain must use original/raw value

my advice :

save data from UI to database :

- user input is formated
- element internally convert formated value to original/raw value
- all data that passing to DataObject must original value.
- Data Object save data

display data from database to UI :

- reatrive data from database as original/raw value
- original value pass to element
- element internally convert original value to formated value.
- display to UI

Thanks

i believe openbiz form uses the same logic you suggested.
in the code, the formattedStringToValue method is to covert ui string to a data value.

Rocky, 

value that return by BizDataObj is always string type and formated, because BizDataObj use BizField::getValue()

the math calculation will caused error when use number format Float or Int

so, please don't use format on DataObject

i trace, the TypeManager use on BizField and DataObject only, 

when save data from form, 

Openbiz use BizRecord::setInputRecord on BizDataObject::updateRecord, BizDataObject::insertRecord and BizDataObject::deleteRecord, before save or delete data.

BizRecord::setInputRecord call BizSystem::typeManager()->formattedStringToValue()

when fetch data from BizDataObject, 

Openbiz use BizField::getValue() to call BizSystem::typeManager()->valueToFormattedString()
