如何在Symfony2中的表单中设置值？

Question

To set a value in a form programmatically with Symfony2, after a form has been created, I've found that the following way works:

$form_data = $form->getData();
$form_data['name'] = 'new value';
$form->setData($form_data);

This is awkward, isn't there a simpler way like $form->set('name', 'new value'); ?

Answer 1

$form->get('name')->setData('new value');
