Cakephp: how to access to model "variables" (mapped from db) from the controller after a set?

Ok i have this controller:

class ExampleController extends AppController {

    var $name = 'Example';


    public function test_me () {

      $this->Example->Create();

      $this->Example->set(  'variable_fr开发者_如何学Goom_db_1' => 'random_value_1',
                            'variable_from_db_2' => 'random_value_2' );


     //here, how can i access to variable_from_db_1 and 2 in $this->Example?
     //???? i've tried $this->data and $this->Example->data but nothing to do

}

}

Do you have some hints for me?

you can explore the data with: debug( $this->Example );

the data is it's own array: $this->Example->data['variable_from_db_1'];

I don't think you can do that.

You can assign your model data to a $this->data array like this:

$this->data['variable_from_db_1'] = $value; $this->set('variable_from_db_1', $value);

So know you can access $this->data within the controller.

I think if you want to save data to your actual Model, you might have to implement the getter / setter method in your model...

In the related view you can access it like this:

echo $variable_from_db_1.'<br />';
echo $variable_from_db_2.'<br />';

In the controller call

debug($this->data);

I think you cannot do this in controller, normally set calls are moved to the end area of actions and all the operations on the such variables must be performed before 'set'ing it for later access in views.
