I have a *User* model to use built-in authentication. The model has several *$hasOne* relationships and all linked models get saved automatically into session, which is great because I can call *AuthComponent**::user()*whenever I need to perform an action based on user data.
Now, I've added a *$hasAndBelongsToMany* relationship to indicate that a user can belong to zero or more groups. However, information about the * Group* model doesn't show up anywhere in the *Auth* component. I can definitively perform a manual User->find() and groups will be there but * AuthComponent**::user() *does not contain group information. I've tried everything I could think of, including the *contain* option. I know I'm using *contain* right because it makes valid models appear and it complains for non-existant models, but *Group* is simply ignored. In the end I had to write a hack in my login function: make a manual *find() * and incorporate the *'Group'* key to session data. Is this a known limitation? -- Like Us on FaceBook https://www.facebook.com/CakePHP Find us on Twitter http://twitter.com/CakePHP --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
