Symfony get form model object

Question

In my symfony application I would like to get form model object before calling save method.For example: on form submit I bind it to the related Form Object. And before calling save method I want to get related Model object with its submitted values.I know there is $this->form->getObject() method.When I call it before $this->form->save(); method it returns model without values. Is there any way to get it? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

The form's values are only set in the object in save(). You have two options:

if the values are enough, use $form->getValues(), it returns the cleaned array
if they aren't, call $form->updateObject() manually.
