35 * Persistent form abstract class.
37 * This provides some shortcuts to validate objects based on the persistent model.
39 * Note that all mandatory fields (non-optional) of your model should be included in the
40 * form definition. Mandatory fields which are not editable by the user should be
41 * as hidden and constant.
43 * $mform->addElement('hidden', 'userid');
44 * $mform->setType('userid', PARAM_INT);
45 * $mform->setConstant('userid', $this->_customdata['userid']);
47 * You may exclude some fields from the validation should your form include other
48 * properties such as files. To do so use the $foreignfields property.
