`public`	# `loadFields( )` Read this forms fields from database and aggregate them. Read this forms fields from database and aggregate them.
`public array:PifaField`	# `getFields( )` Returns aggregated list of PIFA fields. If no fields are aggregated, this forms fields are read from database and aggregated. Returns aggregated list of PIFA fields. If no fields are aggregated, this forms fields are read from database and aggregated. Returns `array:PifaField`

`public`	# `setLastInsertedId( integer $_lastInsertedId )` Parameters `$_lastInsertedId` `integer` $_lastInsertedId
`public array`	# `getValues( )` Returns an array containing current values of all fields of this form where the fields column name is used as key. Returns an array containing current values of all fields of this form where the fields column name is used as key. Returns `array`
`public`	# `setValues( array $values = NULL, boolean $clear = false )` Sets values for this form fields. Sets values for this form fields. The given data array is searched for keys corresponding to this form field names. Other values are omitted. This method is meant to be called with the $_GET or $_POST superglobal variables.

`public`	# `validate( )` Loops all fields and checks their value for being obligatory and conforming to the fields rule. Loops all fields and checks their value for being obligatory and conforming to the fields rule. Throws `PifaValidationException` if at least one field was invalid
`public boolean`	# `store( )` Stores the loaded and modified item to the database. Stores the loaded and modified item to the database. In contrast to its parent method this store() method returns true even if there were no modiifed values and thus no statement was executed. This helps in handling database errors. Returns `boolean` Todo Check if method store() should be implemented for PifaField too. Overrides `Item::store()`

For fields of type INPUT_FILE the uploaded file is stored in the FileSystem (in $cfg['path']['contenido_cache'] . 'form_assistant/'). Stores values of each field of this form in defined data table. For fields of type INPUT_FILE the uploaded file is stored in the FileSystem (in $cfg['path']['contenido_cache'] . 'form_assistant/'). Throws `PifaDatabaseException` if values could not be stored

`public`	# `getDataAsCsv( string $optionally = 'OPTIONALLY' )` Echoes a CSV file containing all of this forms stored data. Thatfor proper headers are sent, that add the created file as attachment for easier download. Echoes a CSV file containing all of this forms stored data. Thatfor proper headers are sent, that add the created file as attachment for easier download.
