First off, it really depends on your cake version. I'm assuming you're
on 1.2 beta or above:
Try something like this:
function getHours($id = null) {
$this->recursive = 0;
if ($id === null) {
$id = $this->id;
}
$this->unbindModel(array('belongsTo' => array('Client', 'User')));
$this->bindModel(array('hasOne' => array(
'Milestone' => array(),
'Task' => array('foreignKey' => false, 'conditions' =>
'Task.milestone_id=Milestone.id',
'Hour' => array('foreignKey' => false, 'conditions' =>
'Hour.task_id=Task.id',
))));
$conditions = array('Project.id' => $id, '1=1 GROUP BY Project.id');
$fields = array('SUM(`Hour`.`time`)');
$result = $this->find('first', compact('fields', 'conditions'));
return $result['SUM(`Hour`.`time`)'];
}
