So, im trying to embed one form in another without creating a class for the forms. Heres what ive got

    $form = $this
        ->buildForm('UserAlert', $alert)
        ->add('Alert', 'entity', array('class' => 'Blah\MgmtBundle\Entity\Alert', 'property' => 'name', 'required' => true))
        ->add('Site', 'entity', array('class' => 'Blah\MgmtBundle\Entity\Site', 'property' => 'name', 'required' => false))
        ->add('Keyword', 'entity', array('class' => 'Blah\MgmtBundle\Entity\Keyword', 'property' => 'name', 'required' => false))
        ->add('Variant', 'entity', array('class' => 'Blah\MgmtBundle\Entity\Variant', 'property' => 'name', 'required' => false))
        ->add('Name', 'text');


    $uac = $alert->getUserAlertConfig();
    $subform = $this
        ->buildForm('UserAlertConfig', $uac)
        ->add('EmailAlert', 'choice', array('choices' => array('1' => 'Yes', '0' => 'No'), 'required' => true, 'label' => 'Email Alerts'))
        ->add('EmailHours', 'text', array('required' => false, 'label' => 'Email Alert Hours'))
        ->add('TextAlert', 'choice', array('choices' => array('1' => 'Yes', '0' => 'No'), 'required' => true, 'label' => 'Text Alerts'))
        ->add('TextHours', 'text', array('required' => false, 'label' => 'Text Alert Hours'));

    $form->add($subform);
    $form = $form->getForm();

however, on the getForm() function, its saying 

Neither property "form" nor method "getForm()" nor method "isForm()" exists in class "Blah\MgmtBundle\Entity\UserAlert"

anyone have any idea how im supposed to get this to work using the quickloading stuff?

heres buildForm

public function buildForm($model = '', $data)
{
    if (empty($model)) {
        throw new \Exception("Must define a model");
    }
    return $this->get('form.factory')->createBuilder('form', $data, array('data_class' => "\\Blah\\MgmtBundle\\Entity\\$model"));
}

    Ended up creating an interface for the subform and adding it like this

        $form = $this
        ->buildForm('UserAlert', $alert)
        ->add('Alert', 'entity', array('class' => 'Neokeo\MgmtBundle\Entity\Alert', 'property' => 'name', 'required' => true))
        ->add('Site', 'entity', array('class' => 'Neokeo\MgmtBundle\Entity\Site', 'property' => 'name', 'required' => false))
        ->add('Keyword', 'entity', array('class' => 'Neokeo\MgmtBundle\Entity\Keyword', 'property' => 'name', 'required' => false))
        ->add('Variant', 'entity', array('class' => 'Neokeo\MgmtBundle\Entity\Variant', 'property' => 'name', 'required' => false))
        ->add('Name', 'text');

    $uac = $alert->getUserAlertConfig();



    $subform = $this->buildForm('UserAlertConfig', $uac, new \Neokeo\MgmtBundle\Form\UserAlertConfig)
        ->add('EmailAlert', 'choice', array('choices' => array('0' => 'No', '1' => 'Yes'), 'required' => true, 'label' => 'Email Alerts'))
        ->add('TextAlert', 'choice', array('choices' => array('0' => 'No', '1' => 'Yes'), 'required' => true, 'label' => 'Text Alerts'));

    $form->add($subform, '', array('label' => ''));
    $form = $form->getForm();

    if anyone can find an easier way without creating interfaces, let me know
