symfony2 : user password set to empty after running this method

Question

this methodi use it to add a new job but when i add a job the password of the that current user get its password set to empty cus the user object that i retrieve has no pass

Answer 1

It does seem strange, but you could always retrieve User object prior to binding it to a newly created job:

$token = $this->get('security.context')->getToken();
$user_repo = $this->getDoctrine()->getRepository('**NAMESPACE**:User');
$user = $user_repo->find($token->getUser()->getId());

$job->setAnnouncer($user);
$em = $this->getDoctrine()->getEntityManager();
$em->persist($job) ;
$em->flush();

Also, I'm not really sure but I read somewhere that token isn't supposed to carry password due to it's security nature.... maybe that is your problem...
