Controller without model/table possible?

2008-02-05 Thread Tim W

Hi all,

Is it possible to have a controller that doesn't map directly to a
model or database table? I want an admin section for my website where
I can edit users and other models, it'll hook into existing models
rather than having its own.

Thanks

Tim

Add var $uses = array(); to your controller.

Thanks Daniel, it's so obvious once it's been pointed out!

you can use any number of existing models like this

App::import('Model', 'Product');
$tmpProduct = new Product();
$tmpProduct-find();
