Symfony2 Embedded Form and MongoDB issue - php

Question

I try to embed a form type into another form type :
$builder->add('geolocation', new GeolocationType());
However when I try and bind the request to the form
if($request->getMethod() == 'POST') {
$form->bindRequest($request);
}
I get the error
Catchable Fatal Error: Argument 1 passed to Company\StoreBundle\Document\Place::setGeolocation()
must be an instance of Company\StoreBundle\Document\Geolocation, array given, called in
/var/www/Company/vendor/symfony/src/Symfony/Component/Form/Util/PropertyPath.php on line 392 and
defined in /var/www/Company/src/Company/StoreBundle/Document/Place.php line 43
The data_class is set either for the PlaceType and the GeolocationType
Here is my code :
Place.php
namespace Company\StoreBundle\Document;
use Doctrine\ODM\MongoDB\Mapping\Annotations as MongoDB;
/**
* #MongoDB\Document(collection="places")
*/
class Place
{
/**
* #MongoDB\Id
*/
private $id;
/**
* #MongoDB\String
*/
private $title;
/**
* #MongoDB\EmbedOne(targetDocument="Geolocation")
*/
private $geolocation;
/**
* Get id
*
* #return id $id
*/
public function getId()
{
return $this->id;
}
/**
* Set geolocation
*
* #param Company\StoreBundle\Document\Geolocation $geolocation
*/
public function setGeolocation(\Company\StoreBundle\Document\Geolocation $geolocation)
{
$this->geolocation = $geolocation;
}
/**
* Get geolocation
*
* #return Company\StoreBundle\Document\Geolocation $geolocation
*/
public function getGeolocation()
{
return $this->geolocation;
}
/**
* Set title

* #param string $title
*/
public function setTitle($title)
{
$this->title = $title;
}
/**

public function getTitle()
{
return $this->title;
}
}
Geolocation.php
namespace Company\StoreBundle\Document;
use Doctrine\ODM\MongoDB\Mapping\Annotations as MongoDB;
/**

class Geolocation
{

private $id;
/**
* #MongoDB\Float
*/
private $latitude;
/**
* #MongoDB\Float
*/

/**
* Get id

*/
public function getId()
{

public function setLatitude($latitude)
{
$this->latitude = $latitude;
}
/**

*/
public function getLatitude()
{
return $this->latitude;
}
/**
* Set longitude
*
* #param float $longitude
*/
public function setLongitude($longitude)
{
$this->longitude = $longitude;
}
/**
* Get longitude
*
* #return float $longitude
*/
public function getLongitude()
{
return $this->longitude;
}
}
PlaceType.php
namespace Company\AdminBundle\Form\Type;
use Symfony\Component\Form\AbstractType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\FormBuilder;
use Company\AdminBundle\Form\Type\GeolocationType;
class PlaceType extends AbstractType

public function getName()

}
GeolocationType.php

use Symfony\Component\Form\AbstractType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\FormBuilder;
class GeolocationType extends AbstractType
{
public function buildForm(FormBuilder $builder, array $options)

}
public function getDefaultOptions(array $options)
{
return array('data_class' => 'Company\StoreBundle\Document\Geolocation');
}

}
}
Thank you all

I think you should not use dependency in your setter method in this case...
So instead of:
setGeolocation(\Company\StoreBundle\Document\Geolocation $geolocation)
Try this and see if it works correctly:
setGeolocation($geolocation)
