Hello developers,
Thank you for responding to my previous query.
Can you please explain the differences between the following two macros,
what advantages does includeInContext provide over the other?
1. includeForm()
2. includeInContext()
Having retrieved an object on a page, how can I update some fields of that
object and save?
Doc.save() saves the document changing its version.... but, doesn't update
the object-parameters. What am I missing?
Regards,
Archana Mettu.

They do the same thing except that using includeForm will trigger the
Edit button at the top of the page to launch the "inline" mode (form
mode) instead of the wiki editor.

You can use $doc.getObject(classname) to retrieve an object and
manipulate it's properties.
Or you can use $doc.updateObjectFromRequest(classname) if you used the
standard names for the properties (if you used $doc.display(fieldname,
"edit"))

~~Number of accesses: $obj.accessCounter~~
The value displyed remains the one I defined by editing the object with the
object editor, what suggests the second set is not doing what I expected.
Do you have any idea of what am I doing wrong?
Thanks,

1. $obj.accessCounter is not the property value, but is a shorthand for $doc.display().
2. In order to make the changes persistent, you must also save the document.
#set($obj = $doc.getObject("Space.MyClass"))
#set($v = $obj.getProperty("accessCounter").value)
## if this is not a number property, you must also parse it
## #set($v = $util.parseInt($v))
#set($v = $v + 1)
$obj.set("accessCounter", $v)
$doc.save()
