Re: Loosing manipulations on CakeRequest:::data

Sorry for all those ugly typos in the text above, but here is the version that hopefully explains the issue correctly:

I'm migrating from 1.3 to 2.1 and got stuck using the CakeRequest::data.

Here's what I do:

in AppController::beforeFilter I'm doing checks in order to do some shifting in $this->request->data if necessary:

// AppController

public function beforeFilter() {

...

    $data = $this->request->input('json_decode');

    $data = $this->object2array($data); // helper method that transforms an object into an array

    if (!empty($data) {

        $this->log('Test #1', LOG_DEBUG);

        $this->request->data($this->modelClass, $data)

    } else {

        $this->log('Test #2', LOG_DEBUG);

        $this->request->data = $data;

    }

    $this->mydata = this->data;

}

Now when I call http://mydomain.com/photos/uri, $this->data['Photo'] is available in PhotosController::beforeFilter after parent::beforeFilter was called, as expected.

However, now in PhotosController::uri $this->data['Photo'] all of a sudden is undefined, whereas $this->mydata['Photo'] is not.

Why gets $this->data corrupted?

Thanks Axel
