I have set up the Notes_Controller as per the initial post:

class Controller_Notes extends AbstractController {

    function init(){

        parent::init();

        $j=$this->owner->join("objects");

        $j->addField("note_count");

        $this->owner->hasMany("Notes","id","object_id"); //Model,model_id,our_id

        $this->owner->addMethod("refNotes",$this);

    }

}

This is my page class where the error occurs:

class page_tools extends Page {

    function init(){

        parent::init();

        $fields['grid'] = array('name', 'type', 'purchase_dt','current_hrs');

        $fields['edit'] = array('type', 'name', 'purchase_dt','purchase_hrs','current_hrs','purchase_price','purchase_from','disposal_dt');

        $m = $this->add('Model_Tools')->ref('Notes');

   $crud = $this->add('CRUD');

        $crud->setModel($m,$fields['edit'],$fields['grid']);

        $crud->grid->addColumn('Expander','Notes');

    }

}

and these are the model classes:

class Model_Tools extends Model_Table

{

    public $table="tools";

    function init(){

        parent::init();

        $err = "This is a reqired field";

        $this->addField('name')->mandatory($err);

        $this->addField('type')->listData(array('t'=>'Tractor','e'=>'Equipment'));

        $this->addField('purchase_dt')->type('date');

        $this->addField('purchase_hrs')->type('number');

        $this->addField('current_hrs')->type('number');

        $this->addField('purchase_price')->type('number');

        $this->addField('purchased_from_id');

        $this->addField('disposal_dt')->type('date');

        $this->hasOne('Object','object_id')->type('system');

    }

}

class Model_Notes extends Model_Table

{

    public $table="notes";

    function init(){

        parent::init();

        $err = "This is a reqired field";

        $this->addField('name')->mandatory($err);

        $this->addField('type')->listData(array('t'=>'Tractor','e'=>'Equipment'));

        $this->addField('date')->type('date')->defaultValue(date('Y-m-d'));

        $this->addField('blurb')->type('text');

        $this->setOrder('date','desc');

        

    }

}

Currently there are 2 rows in the 'tools' table with object_id's set and their respective entries in the 'objects' table.  There are no 'notes' yet.

Can anyone shed some light as to what's going wrong here?

Thanks

I have not read all this topic due to limited time lately, but in short I guess you have to add Controller to your Model_Tools.

$this->add('Controller_Notes'); // put it in Model_Tools init() method
