Ok so i have two models:
1: pv_array (photovoltaic array)
2: module (photovoltaic module)
there is a MANY_MANY relation between both of them:
return array(
'modules' => array(self::MANY_MANY, 'module', 'module_to_array(array_id, module_id)'),
);
return array(
'arrays' => array(self::MANY_MANY, 'pv_array', 'module_to_array(module_id, array_id)'),
);
The problem is when i add modules to an array i need the ability to add multiple instances of the same module to an array… i can do this no problem, when i check the Database table module_to_array there are multiple entries present.
Although when i now go to access the modules in the array as follows:
$pv_array = pv_array::model()->findByPk( 2 );
echo count( $pv_array->modules);
it only counts single instances of modules and not the multiple instances of modules as are present…??
for example if i added 3 x ModuleXYZ and 2x ModuleABC to Array1 i would only get the following
echo count( $Array1->modules ); // would echo 2
where i would want it to echo 5
any idea?
