About Controller::postConditions(): it is a handy method that will let you
convert an array of POST data to its suitable findAll conditions array. So
for example if you have:
$postData = array (
'Model1' => array (
'field11' => 'value11',
'field12' => 'value12'
),
'Model2' => array (
'field21' => 'value21'
)
)
Doing:
$this->postConditions($postData);
Will return an array of the form:
Array (
'Model1.field11' => 'value11',
'Model1.field12' => 'value12',
'Model2.field21' => 'value21'
);
This can also be obtained on CakePHP 1.2 with the amazing Set::extract()
method (Nate and Larry, thanks for that beautiful peace of work)
So the previous example I gave you could be changed to:
function search()
{
if (!empty($this->data))
{
$conditions = $this->postConditions($this->data);
$conditions['Candidato.nome'] = 'LIKE %'
$conditions['Candidato.nome'] . '%';
$results = $this->Candadato->findAll($conditions);
$this->set('candidatos', $results);
$this->render('index');
}
}

Asunto: Re: Ambiguous columns in findAll()
The $conditions = array('Candidato.nome' => "LIKE %{$search_term}%");
worked as a champ. And this even helped me to better understand the
innards of the FindAll method.
Nate, I was not able to fully understand how to use postConditions().
Im still on my first month of using cakephp, so if you know some place
where I can see some working/example code using this method, I would
love to learn from it.
