Hi,
I try to make same things as mentionned here in "through on self" section : http://www.yiiframework.com/doc/guide/1.1/en/database.arr
But that don’t work for me 
Could you help me please ?
My tables :
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `client` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`login` varchar(100) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
`name` varchar(100) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
`firstName` varchar(100) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
`email` varchar(100) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
UNIQUE KEY `login` (`login`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_unicode_ci AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `clientfriend` (
`accept` tinyint(1) NOT NULL,
`clientId` int(11) NOT NULL,
`clientFriendId` int(11) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`clientId`,`clientFriendId`),
KEY `FK_ClientFriend_clientFriendId` (`clientFriendId`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_unicode_ci;
ALTER TABLE `clientfriend`
ADD CONSTRAINT `FK_ClientFriend_clientFriendId` FOREIGN KEY (`clientFriendId`) REFERENCES `client` (`id`),
ADD CONSTRAINT `FK_ClientFriend_clientId` FOREIGN KEY (`clientId`) REFERENCES `client` (`id`);
I add same relations in Client model :
public function relations()
{
// NOTE: you may need to adjust the relation name and the related
// class name for the relations automatically generated below.
return array(
//'clientfriends' => array(self::HAS_MANY, 'Clientfriend', 'clientFriendId'),
//'clientfriends1' => array(self::HAS_MANY, 'Clientfriend', 'clientId'),
'clientfriends'=>array(
self::HAS_MANY,'Clientfriend','clientId','joinType'=>'INNER JOIN'
),
'clientfriends1'=>array(
self::HAS_MANY,'Client',array('clientFriendId'=>'id'),
'through'=>'clientfriends','joinType'=>'INNER JOIN'
),
);
}
I try to display friends of a client by using this code :
$model = Client::model()->findByPk(1);
$friends=$model->clientfriends1;
$friends is always empty !
