Re: Custom SQL and Populating Form
So far, I'm simply doing this:
$myarr = $this->query($sql, $params, false);
return $myarr[0];
I have to figure out what to do when there are no records returned.
The index is wrong when that happens.

You could build the array yourself based on the result then return
that from your model.
Or, you could use Cake's find() instead. If there's something specific
keeping you from doing that, perhaps there's asimpler workaround than
using query().

Custom SQL and Populating Form
Here is some code:
Model:
class Project extends AppModel {
var $name = 'Project';
var $primaryKey = 'project_id';
function customFunction($id=0){
$sql = "custom sql... where project_id = ?";
$params = array( customValidation($id) );
return $this->query($sql, $params, false);
}
}
Controller:
class ProjectsController extends AppController {
var $name = 'Projects';
function test($id=0){
$this->data = $this->Project->testByID($id);
}
}
View:
echo $form->create("Project");
echo $form->input('project_name');
echo $form->end();
ISSUE:
The controller's action with the custom SQL doesn't populate the form.
I figured out that It's due to the array not being in the proper
format:
Custom query: Array ( [0] => Array (...)
CakePHP built in actions (ie. read() ): Array ( [Project] => Array
(...)
Is there a way to have the custom SQL be returned in the proper format
and populate the form?
