Hi
I'm new to cake but not to app development. I'm confused with the
following: I got a table structure and assoc. Everything loaded fine
with the scaffold so relationships are ok. PS: sorry if I break naming
conventions here they are not in the code.
I got a TakeExamController which has a method call take($id) which
will display the exam and then another call grade that will store the
results.
my model has the following Exam hasMany Sections hasMany Questions
*other stuff
so I want take() to fetch my Exam.name all it's section.name and
everything under Question. In order to this play it all in the view as
a normal exam.
now I have accomplish this with the very ugly $this->set('exam',$this-
>Exam->find(null,null,null,3));#$recursive=3
and then I could juggle with that huge set of data in the view but
that's way way too inefficient.
I have manage to clear all the non-desired fields from all Models with
the following.
$fields=array('name')
$exam=$this->Exam->read($fields);
or the equivalent find()
etc.
but what got me lost is how I can fetch one and only one of the assoc
for example Exam has a relationship with ExamResults but I don't want
that right now. I just wants all Sections that belong to the current
exam. how hard can that be? isn't there a way to get just one assoc
without fetching everything that related to that object from the db?
PS: someone on IRC told me about bind/unbind but that just seems like
going way to far to get a simple query going
