initControlFromDao()

set data from a DAO, in a control.

The control must be a container like checkboxes or listbox with multiple attribute. The form should contain a formId

The Dao should map to an "association table" : its primary key should be composed by the primary key stored in the formId (or the given primarykey) + the field which will contain one of the values of the control. If this order is not the same as defined into the dao, you should provide the list of property names which corresponds to the primary key in this order : properties for the formId, followed by the property which contains the value.

Parameters
$name : string

the name of the control

$daoSelector : string

the selector of a dao file

$primaryKey : mixed = null

the primary key if the form have no id. (optional)

$primaryKeyNames : mixed = null

list of field corresponding to primary keys (optional)

The Dao should map to an "association table" : its primary key should be the primary key stored in the formId + the field which will contain one of the values of the control. If this order is not the same as defined into the dao, you should provide the list of property names which corresponds to the primary key in this order : properties for the formId, followed by the property which contains the value. All existing records which have the formid in their keys are deleted before to insert new values.
