Now that I'm finishing my first 'real' cake app which will actually have to be used and such, I'm regretting the decisions I made in the beginning more and more. I'm glad everything works, but every time I find out something new I could have used in the base design it stings.
In an effort to prevent this in the future I'm now going to try to learn it all over again, and try to retain a little more. One thing I'm now a little confused about is the way associated models can be called. In the aforementioned app, I used $uses to gain access to other models, like users. So when people used the searchbox in (something like) posts, it used $user = $this->User- >findByUsername($...) and the $this->Post->findByWriter($user['User'] ['id']). My question is, could I have used something like $this->User->Post- >findByWriter? And where would it search in that case, in all Posts or only in the posts associated with the _current_ User? I looked in the manual but the only thing there was about this sort of thing that I found was to save associated model data.
