Hello,
I am trying to interrelate models from different data sources (Oracle and
Active Directory in this case), and I am getting some funny behavior from
recursive associations. Just to clarify: single level association work well.
So, consider model A belongsTo B, and model B hasMany A.
This is an example of the code that I’m trying to execute:
$this->B->find('first', array(
'conditions' => array('id' =>
'1158'),
'recursive' => -1,
'contain' => array(
'A' => array(
'fields' => array(‘id’, …),
'B'
=> array(
'fields' => array('id', …),
'A' => array(
'fields' => array(…),
),
),
),
),
));
If the code ran correctly, I’d be getting something that looks like a circular
array. However, my code doesn’t work as expected and the innermost value (‘A’)
is not present (i.e., my result array looks like [B => …, A => [‘field1’, …, B
=> [‘field1’, ‘field2’, …]]]), not even as a NULL or empty array. If instead of
using containable I set the ‘recursive’ property OR use containable but leave
the fields unspecified, something even stranger happens at the recursion stops
one level before that (which is this time an empty array, i.e., I get [B => …,
A => [‘field1’, …, B => []]]).
If I misspell the name of the innermost A on purpose, I get a warning. This is
leading me to think that things are somehow, but not quite entirely, working.
How could I debug this to find out what the problematic code is? It could be
somewhere in the custom datasources or the model definitions.
Thanks,
