```

Modify the build form method

    public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options): void
    {
        $choices = BitOperations::createOptions(16, 0xffff); // creates the choice fields

        /** @var BitmaskTest $bitmaskTest */
        $bitmaskTest = $builder->getData(); // fetch the entity
        $enableOption = ['enable_mask' => $bitmaskTest->getEnableMask(), 'choices' => $choices];

        $builder->add('enableMask', BitMaskType::class, ['choices' => $choices]);
        $builder->add('valueMask', BitMaskType::class, $enableOption);
    }
