I've read the other subjects but it doesn't solve my problem so:
I've got this
->add('role', 'choice', array(
'label' => 'I am:',
'mapped' => true,
'expanded' => true,
'multiple' => false,
'choices' => array(
'ROLE_NORMAL' => 'Standard',
'ROLE_VIP' => 'VIP',
)
))
And whatever I do, I get this error:
Notice: Array to string conversion in C:\xampp\htdocs\xxx\vendor\symfony\symfony \src\Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\ChoiceList\ChoiceList.php line 458
In my form type the setRole method is not even called (when I rename it to some garbage the error still occurs). Why is this happening?

Symfony's trying to convert your $role(array property) to not multiple choice field(string).
There's several ways to deal with this problem:
Example:
<?php
namespace Acme\DemoBundle\Form\DataTransformer;
use Symfony\Component\Form\DataTransformerInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Exception\TransformationFailedException;
class StringToArrayTransformer implements DataTransformerInterface
{
/**
* Transforms an array to a string.
* POSSIBLE LOSS OF DATA
*
* @return string
*/
public function transform($array)
{
return $array[0];
}
/**
* Transforms a string to an array.
*
* @param string $string
*
* @return array
*/
public function reverseTransform($string)
{
return array($string);
}
}
And then in your form class:
use Acme\DemoBundle\Form\DataTransformer\StringToArrayTransformer;
/* ... */
$transformer = new StringToArrayTransformer();
$builder->add($builder->create('role', 'choice', array(
'label' => 'I am:',
'mapped' => true,
'expanded' => true,
'multiple' => false,
'choices' => array(
'ROLE_NORMAL' => 'Standard',
'ROLE_VIP' => 'VIP',
)
))->addModelTransformer($transformer));
