Re: Cake 2 : Any sort of automatic schema creation from models?

So would the model be automatically be built with the correct
properties and types by telling it which table to read from?
If I just have to setup the tables, that would work too, but what I
dont want is to have to maintain a model as well as a table structure
independently.
