Re: find() when having nested models

Use ContainableBehavior and try the find() like:

$this->E->find(
'all',
array(
'contain' => array(
'D' => array(
'fields' => array('D.title'),
'C' => array(
'fields' => array('C.title'),
'A' => array(
'fields' => array('A.title')
),
'B' => array(
'fields' => array('B.title')
)
)
),
'F' => array(
'fields' => array('F.title')
),
'G' => array(
'fields' => array('G.title')
)
)
)
);

or:

$this->E->find(
'first',
array(
'conditions' => array('E.id' => $e_id),
'contain' => array(
...
)
)
);

etc.
