Trying to find the right syntax for prefilling a subform in J3.10

Question

I'm trying to figure out how to prefill subform repeatable fields - the situation is:

/com_manufacturing/admin/views/document/tmpl/edit.php

//some code

<?php
            // $subform = JForm::getInstance('row','row');
            // echo var_dump($subform);
            $xml = new SimpleXMLElement(
            '<fieldset
              name="rows"
              label="COM_MANUFACTURING_ROW_DETAILS">
              <field
                name="rows-multiple"
                type="subform"
                label="Subform Field"
                description="Subform Field Description"
                multiple="true"
                layout="joomla.form.field.subform.repeatable-table"
                min="1"
                max="10">
                <form name="rows-multiple-form">
                  <field

                  <field
                     name="full_id"

            $this->form->setField($xml, 'params', true, 'params');

            $prefillData = array(
              "docHead" => array(

    </fieldset>
</form>

Now - I try many many versions of my $prefillData, with the intention to build an associative array that has the same structure that have my form and subform - but no way.

The Joomla Docs deal with this type of prefill situation. Advance Basic

Can someone help me?

Finaly, I've found a solution on this post:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46254724/how-to-set-form-data-for-a-joomla-subform

$data->set('nameofsubformfield', [
    'nameofsubformfield0' => [
      'fieldwithinsubform' => 'value-of-field-within-subform'
    ]
]);

This is the right syntax for prefill subform elements.
