Well that's good news, much is made of the new ORM, but it seems as though
bread and butter (not cake :) queries can be constructed in the same way
that they could before (CakePHP 2) using contain?
Having watched your recent video release - 'Faster application development
with CakePHP 3.0' I understand that you love and are passionate about SQL.
Not everybody is, and I'm one of them. I want as much of the pain taken out
of it as possible of constructing the SQL and find that the format below
serves me well for about 98% of what I'm after.
Thanks for the reply
Dave
