For years I worked with a custom framework that was loosely based on
CakePHP. In that framework, we could access the model data within a model
file by using $this->PROPERTY_NAME. I have seen some Cake examples that
use similar code, but for some reason, I can't get it to work. Here is the
function that I'm working with (taken from the InvoiceItem model):
public function getTableRowView(){
pr($this->data);
pr("id: ".$this->id);
pr("quantity: ".$this->data['InvoiceItem']['quantity']);
$html = "<td>$this->id</td>";
$html .="<td>".$this->InvoiceItem['quantity']."</td>";
$html .="<td>Notes</td>";
$html .="<td>Type</td>";
$html .="<td>Subtotal</td>";
return $html;
}
When I print out $this->data, this is the information that I get. That
part seems to be working just fine.
Array
(
[InvoiceItem] => Array
(
[id] => 121
[amount] => 1.00
[quantity] => 1
[notes] => Note 1
[invoice_item_type_id] => 1
[invoice_id] => 1
)
[InvoiceItemType] => Array
(
[id] => 1
[name] => Charge
)
[Invoice] => Array
(
[id] => 1
[name] => Invoice 1
)
)
The $id property can be accessed without any problems. But the only way that I
can get to any of the other information is to go through the data array:
$this->data['InvoiceItem']['quantity'].
Is this the only way to get to the data in a model? Shouldn't I just be able
to use $this->quantity? Thank you in advance for any help you can give me!
