Re: reading table from a component

You can try just doing

$variable =& new $Model;

inside your component.  This will create a reference to the model for
you without relying on the controller.

Re: reading table from a component

I am not sure exactly what is your intention, but isn't the problem using same name for Model and Component?Either reference must be overwritten in controller.Also, if you want to access to model and/or set data for view,
it should be done through controller, I believe.So, in component, it should be$this->controller->set('product_sections', $this->controller->ProductSection->findAll());Sohei

Sorry, this is me being absolutely stupid. My problem, which is
probably totally unrelated to   Zoltan's, was that my User model was in
a plugin (I thought it'd be easier to organise it that way). Hence
whenever I wasn't in the plugin, my main application couldn't access
the model for it.

Scratch that, my implementation was broken, and currently I don't know
why. Perhaps someone more experienced can tell the both of us how
exactly we can access Models in Components?

You should be able to use $this->controller->ProductSection to get
access to your model, it's what I've done in my Auth component and it
seems to work ok. It's just that extra level of redirection there :)

reading table from a component

[Zoltan]

Hi,

I'm quite new to Cake and I have a question about components/elements

Basically I have a site where there will be a list of categories on
different pages

e.g.
var $name = 'Searches';
var $components = array('ProductSection');
var $uses = 'ProductSection';

function index()
{
$this->ProductSection->Setup();
...

and a element (renderElement('categories_list', );
?>)

class ProductSectionComponent extends Object
{
//var $someVar = null;
   // var $controller = true;


function startup(& $controller) {
$this->controller = & $controller;
}

function Setup()
{
$this->set('product_sections',
$this->ProductSection->findAll());
}
...

I want to know what I how to set this up, can I select the model inside
the component?

Hope this makes sense, I've been trying various ways but keep getting
errors.

Z
