As many have failed before me, I am trying to massage some data in the
afterFind callback in CakePHP 2.3.6.
public function afterFind($results, $primary = false) {
$results = parent::afterFind($results, $primary);
foreach ($results as $key => $val) {
//... do stuff
}
return $results;
}
But, as I have seen in many examples on the web, there are many different
formats that can be expected in the $results array, depending on which
model called the find method (associated data gets quite ugly).
I'm thinking of using THIS solution:

Is this *really *the best method we have?
If yes, I sure hope this will change in CakePHP 3.0. IMHO, complex array
format tests shouldn't exist in a model. Why not just pass me the results
array before merging it into the caller-model results?
Are there any alternatives? In despair, I'm thinking of changing the Core
DboSource and plugging in a new callback before MergeAssociation. Yes, it's
that bad, please help! :)
