Hi

I've just started using the Containable behavior (which I put in AppModel).

I have Paper <-> Author, where <-> is the HABTM and in my AuthorsPaper (join table related) model I have this method

function paper_authors($id) {
        $this->recursive = 0;
        $this->contain('Author');
        $joinAuthors = $this->find('all',
        array(
'conditions' => array('AuthorsPaper.paper_id' => $id), 'order' => 'AuthorsPaper.id'
        )
        );

which retrieves the authors associated to a paper (without loading Paper information).

This works perfectly.

But If I use this method after calling a method on Paper's model class which does

$this->contain(array(
        'Author' => array(
                'AuthorsPaper',
                'order' => 'AuthorsPaper.id'
        )
));

the above method (paper_authors in class AuthorsPaper) does not work anymore, meaning that it does not retrieve information about Author anymore...

so does the method in Paper's class use of contain spoils any further contain called on related classes (e.g., AuthorsPaper)?

thanks in advance
        Lorenzo
