the_woodsman is right - if you can cope with Cake's array structure
then your app will be more consistent, however there are times when
you do need the data in a certain format, and plain php can cope with
this easily. I'm not sure how the Set class can do this easily and as
quick as the following.
$users2 = array();
foreach ($users as $user) {
$users2[] = array(
'id' => $user['Users']['id'],
'name' => $user['Users']['name'],
'total_cost' => $user[0]['total_cost'],
'descr' => $user['group']['descr']
);
}
$users = $users2;
// or for php5
foreach ($users as &$user) {
$user = array(
'id' => $user['Users']['id'],
'name' => $user['Users']['name'],
'total_cost' => $user[0]['total_cost'],
'descr' => $user['group']['descr']
);
}
