Multiple forms of same type - Symfony 2

Question

So I have my controller action similar to this

$task1 = new Task();
$form1 = $this->createForm(new MyForm(), $task1);

$task2 = new Task();
$form2 = $this

In Symfony 3.0:

class MyCustomFormType extends AbstractType
{
    private $formCount;

    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->formCount = 0;
    }

    public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
    {
        ++$this->formCount;
        // Build your form...
    }

    public function getBlockPrefix()
    {
        return parent::getBlockPrefix().'_'.$this->formCount;
    }
}

Now the first instance of the form on the page will have "my_custom_form_0" as its name (same for fields' names and IDs), the second one "my_custom_form_1", ...
