Hi,
Whats the best way to validate a required a related field (belongs_to)?
My Model http://pastebin.com/zRhUzZrY
I've tried to set the department_id to required but I't throws an exception when I save and I only assign an Department instance to the field.
$this->user = Model_User::find_or_create_with_username($ldap_fields);
$this->user->department = Model_Department::forge();
$this->user->department->name = "shdk";
$this->user->name = "ghsd";
$this->user->save(); // throws ValidationError -> department_id not set
Whats the best way to do this?
Or is the only way to manually set the department_id before save?
Thank you!
