Re: counterQuery, is this implemented yet?

Sorry, I didn't explain my specific situation. In my case, all I
wanted to do was check to see which items in my table had children;
that was all I wanted to know for my specific case. counterCache was
all I needed, but when I couldn't get it to work (due to my own
mistakes) I turned to counterQuery. TreeBehavior was seemingly the
only last option I had, but really didn't want to use (as it was huge
overkill). I ended up getting counterCache to work before looking too
deeply in to TreeBehavior, but I am curious to know if counterQuery is
implemented in Cake 1.2 RC3.

Thanks for the link showing how to do more with counter cache. I like
to learn as much as I can in regards to Cake.
