I'm pretty new to Cake and have this question: is it possible to use
Cake's lower level database classes in the case that you do not descend
your model from AppModel?


Models don't have to be database dependent...but you lose the ability
to use all the neat built-in helpers if you don't extend AppModel, and
thereby connect to a database.

I've used Felix G's GoogleAnalytics model for a reporting app at work,
and that is definitely not database related.

If you hunt around on my blog (link is in my signature block) you can
find a link to Felix's posting about it.

Hope that helps.
