Question

i have a couple of problems with cfwheels (n:m relationsship)

here my database schema

rights        righthaspath           path        
-id -------|  -id                --> -id
-role      -->-rightid (FK)      |   -url
              -pathid  (FK)------|

my models
/Models/Right.cfc

<cffunction name="init">
    <cfset hasMany(name="righthaspath",shortcut="path")>
    <cfset nestedProperties(associations="righthaspath")>   
</cffunction>

/Models/Path.cfc

<cffunction name="init">
    <cfset hasMany(name="righthaspath")>
</cffunction>

/Models/Righthaspath.cfc

<cffunction name="init">
    <cfset belongsTo("path")>
    <cfset belongsTo("right")>
</cffunction>

in my Controller

<cfset tmp= model("right").findall(include="righthaspath")>

so, the sql statement from cfhweels is:

SELECT rights.id,rights.Role,righthaspaths.id AS righthaspathid,righthaspaths.pathID,righthaspaths.rightID FROM rights 
LEFT OUTER JOIN righthaspaths ON rights.id = righthaspaths.rightID 

but i want a sql statement over the three tables like this

SELECT 
    *
FROM 
    rights 
    INNER JOIN righthaspaths on rights.id=righthaspaths.rightID
    INNER JOIN paths on righthaspaths.pathID=paths.id

can u help?

PS: i cant include path e.g.

<cfset tmp= model("right").findall(include="righthaspath,path")> 

because i got an error

An association named path could not be found on the right model.

On behalf of Hans Maeier above, I’ll post his answer so it can be marked as answered and aid the CFWheels community on stackoverflow.

include=”righthaspath(path)” will work done

Hope that helps anyone searching for this.

Thanks,
