SomeBehavior defines afterFind()

ModelAController::someAction() has:
$this->ModelA->recursive = 1;
$this->ModelA->findAll();

Will SomeBehavior::afterFind() be triggered for ModelB, since ModelB
will be retrieved via association to ModelA?

So far in my testing, the afterFind on the behavior does not seem to be
called. Is this normal? Is this on purpose?

The $primary argument in behavior functions would seem to suggest that
the behavior functions should still be called even if the model acting
as the behavior is being queried as a result of an association.

I may be confused on this, though. Any help?

Little late on this topic but yes, you are correct. Even as of the
latest 1.2.0.5427alpha  (July 9, 2007) Behavoir::afterFind is not
called for deep associations. I ran into a similar problem so I have
just modified the core CAKE/libs/model/datasources/dbo_source.php to
do so. I know this is not ideal for upgrades, but hey - it works.

~Line 787:         $resultSet[$i][$association] = $linkModel-

                                        foreach($linkModel->behaviors as $behavior) {
                                                if(method_exists($behavior, 'afterfind') && $filtered_data =
$behavior->afterFind(&$linkModel, $resultSet[$i][$association],
false)) {
                                                        $resultSet[$i][$association] = $filtered_data;
                                                }
                                        }

~Line: 670:            $data = $model->{$className}-

                                                        foreach($model->{$className}->behaviors as $behavior) {
                                                                if(method_exists($behavior, 'afterfind') && $filtered_data =
$behavior->afterFind(&$model->{$className}, $data, false)) {
                                                                        $data = $filtered_data;
                                                                }
                                                        }

Hope this helps someone..

Cheers!
