Re: ModelValidator fails on SaveAssociated in Plugin

It seems I found the problem, at least at first sight. It appears it is not sufficient to do a Find on the model, it is necessary to invoke either Set or Create on the model with the found (or newly created) record so that all the data gets properly populated. Then it works fine.

Hi!

There is something I do not understand. I have a plugin where I save some data into related models. When I do it with a Save, everything works fine. As soon as I try to use SaveAssociated, I get this error (and it is interfering of course with the headers). Can someone confirm that this is either something silly or a bug, please?

Code is simple and straightforward:

                        $options = array(
                              'fieldList' => array(
                                      'Account' => array(
                                              'active'
                                      ),
                                      'AccountFlag' => array(
                                              'deleted',
                                              'deleted_date'
                                      )
                              )
                        );
                        $this->Account->saveAssociated(null, $options);

And the alternative of 

                        $this->Account->save(null, array('fieldList' => array('Account' => array('active'))));
                        $this->Account->AccountFlag->save(null, 
                                array('fieldList' => array('AccountFlag' => array('deleted', 'deleted_date'))));

works just fine.

Thanks!
