Doctrine Record Listener

Question

I have a listener which contains a preSave() method. Is there a way for me to halt doctrine from calling the save method if a condition fails. Unfortunately I am not allowed to throw an exception. Is there any other way?

Answer 1

My first idea would be to set a flag in the preSave()-method and to check for that flag in the save()-method. But I think skipOperation() is what you are looking for:

public function preSave(Doctrine_Event $event)
{
    if (!$condition) {
        $event->skipOperation();
    }
}
