Try to put the "RequestHandler" into the components property. It
detects which content type is requested and sets the layout path
according to that.
If you want to set the layout and layoutPath manually do it this way:
class PostsController ...
function index() {
....
$this->layoutPath = 'xml';
$this->layout = 'default'; // not needed because the defaut is
'default'
The XmlHelper should only be used in views. In Controllers and Models
you can use the core Xml class:
App::import('Core', 'Xml');
$item = array('Post' => array('id' => 23, 'title' => 'test'));
// transform an array to xml:
$Xml = new Xml($item);
$xml = $Xml->compose(true); // returns xml (string) including the xml
header
// transform xml to an array:
$Xml = new Xml($xml);
$item = $Xml->toArray();
