well, i have this line of code in the tutorial i am following. However, it did not provided me the clear explanation regarding recursive. I am a newbie in cakephp and searched about this “recursive”. I hope somebody could provide me a layman’s explanation of this code:
$this->Author->recursive = 1;
Thank you
First result on Google is a clear explanation from the reference of Cakephp itself:
http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/models/model-attributes.html#recursive
It is needed to set the depth of the retrieval of records associated with a model data so that you can limit how much data is fetched from the query when there are many levels of associations between your models.
