A couple days ago, I lamented that Find* didn't return an array of model objects. I posted about it here, and I was told that one of the reasons for this was that it would be "too tempting" to start inserting business logic in the views if you had objects available there.
Fine. I'll concede that point for now. But what about the controllers? Shouldn't I be able to use models in the controllers? If I do a Find* in a controller to retrieve some data (that I have no intention of sending to the view) , shouldn't I get model objects back and be able to use methods on those objects? Controllers are where the business logic *should* live, so there doesn't seem to be much argument against using model objects there. Yet I still have nothing but these big arrays to deal with. How does everyone else manage this? Say you *need* to run some method on a model object in one of your controllers. What is the accepted way of doing this? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
