It's important to note that aa() and a() are slow functions so probably a little bit extra code wouldn't harm: $this->Thing->recursive = -1; $data = $this->Thing->findAll( array("Thing.user<em>id" => $user</em>id), array("id", "name"));</p> <p>problem with conditions is, it doesn't reach associations other than belongTo and you can't go deep in the association, same thing for the second param.

It’s important to note that aa() and a() are slow functions so probably a little bit extra code wouldn’t harm:
$this->Thing->recursive = -1;
$data = $this->Thing->findAll( array(“Thing.userid” => $userid), array(“id”, “name”));

problem with conditions is, it doesn’t reach associations other than belongTo and you can’t go deep in the association, same thing for the second param.

class Thing {

var $hasMany = array(
‘AnotherThing’ => array(
‘className’ => ‘AnotherThing’
),
‘SomeOtherThing’ => array(
‘className’ => ‘SomeOtherThing’
),
‘YetAnotherThing’ => array(
‘className’ => ‘YetAnotherThing’
)
);
}

so the above unbind model would remove the bindings for the 1st 2 associations and leave the third one.

$this->Thing->unbindModel( array( ‘hasMany’ => array(‘AnotherThing, ‘SomeOtherThing’) ) );

Basically the first array holds the keywords ‘hasMany’, ‘belongsTo’ etc.. each array within that would hold the names you gave the associations in your model.

If you have an unbindModel example handy, I’d be pleased to update the post with it.

Still the unbindModel stands as a suggestion in case you need to remove <em>some</em> assications and leave others.</p> Whoops, missed the -1 paramter there.
