Goal:
My goal is to get pagnation and a search function with a foreach statment.
Why?
Abel to use the models search function.
Not be lockt to any list widget.
Dont build criterias and other logic at more done one place.
My try: 
$model=new Invoice('search');
$model->unsetAttributes(); // clear any default values
if(isset($_GET['Invoice'])){
$model->attributes=$_GET['Invoice'];
}
$model->companyId = $this->getCompany()->id;
$model->type = 0; // kund fakturer
$criteria=$model->search();
$count=Invoice::model()->count($criteria);
$pages=new CPagination($count);
// results per page
$pages->pageSize=10;
$pages->applyLimit($criteria);
$data=Invoice::model()->findAll($criteria);
$this->render('/struktur/invoice/index',array(
'invoices'=>$data,
'invoice'=>$model,
'pages'=>$pages
));
This results in the error: "Object of class CActiveDataProvider could not be converted to string"
If i
print_r($model->search())
i get an array with the CDbCriteria object:
...
CDbCriteria Object ( [select] => * [distinct] => [condition] => (companyId=:ycp0) AND (fakturaNr LIKE :ycp1) [params] => Array ( [:ycp0] => 92 [:ycp1] => %1337% ) [limit] => -1 [offset] => -1 [order] => [group] => [join] => [having] => [with] => [alias] => [together] => [index] => [scopes] => [_e:private] => [_m:private] => ) [_id:private] => Invoice [_data:private] => [_keys:private] => [_totalItemCount:private] => [_sort:private] => [_pagination:private] => [_e:private] => [_m:private] => )
If i look in CDbCommandBuilder.php, and function,
public function createCountCommand($table,$criteria,$alias='t')
And i make
print_r($criteria);
i get this result
CDbCriteria Object
(
[select] => *
[distinct] =>
[condition] => CActiveDataProvider Object
(
[modelClass] => Invoice
[model] => Invoice Object
(
[_md:private] => CActiveRecordMetaData Object
(
[tableSchema] => CMysqlTableSchema Object
(
[schemaName] =>
[name] => tbl_invoice
[rawName] => `tbl_invoice`
[primaryKey] => id
[sequenceName] =>
[foreignKeys] => Array
(
)
[columns] => Array
(
...
So the criteria is created but the condition strangle converts to a CActiveDataProvider Object.
so why does this CDbCriteria object dosent work as criteria?
Any ideas?
thanks
