Re: Relations between models
Very interesting!
When you speak of $this-Car-Race-Spectator, the - arrow can
represent any association, belongsTo, hasMany, hasOne,..?
I find quite hard to understand how a model can be a property or
attribute of another object model? The constructing of those model
classes is still full of opacity for me.
Thank you for your both answers.

In your example you are talking about races, so probably your Race

solution : first one is loading models in controller, retrieving data
and passing them to function, but it's not controllers thin models
fat. Second one is classregistry loading inside of the model, but
might it be time consuming?
Example :
-FIRST example ---
AController

$a=$this-a-find(..conditions = ... a_id)
$this-loadModel('b');
$b=$this-b-find((..conditions = ... b_id...);
$result=$this-a-funA($a,$b)
}
}
AModel
{
function funA($a,$b)
{Logic, whole stuff, data treatment}
}
SECOND example ---
AController
{
function AAA($a_id,$b_id)
{
$result=$this-a-funA($a_id,$b_id)
}
}
AModel
{

{

$b=ClassRegistry::init(a)-find(..conditions = ... b_id)
}
}

Re: Relations between models
Don't worry too much about the hows and whys. If your models are associated in
any way you can reach a distantly related model to run any model method as
described earlier. It's a very useful and powerful facility.

Re: Relations between models
Okay thanks!
This question was an introduction to another one : When you do this,
aren't you consuming too much ressources? I believe not but just in
case, because ressources can become quickly a bottleneck in a site
with a lot of visitors so I4would like to know the best practices in
that case (and as from now, I think this one is the best one)
