Ok,
It is even worse now.
Let's say I have a hasAndBelongsToMany association in Dog.php with another
table (Model). And then in the Controller I have the following
$this->Dog->find('all');
print_r($this->OtherModel); exit;
Instead of getting an instance of OtherModel and all of the associations
and variables in it I get an instance of AppModel. if I move the print_r
above the dog->find line I get the correct output. If I remove the
association I also get the correct output.
Any ideas why? Anybody...
