I have the following tables in the database:

  • teams:
    • id
    • name
  • matches:
    • id
    • team1_id
    • team2_id

I've defined the following ORM models in my Kohana application:

class Match_Model extends ORM {
  protected $belongs_to = array('team1_id' => 'team', 'team2_id' => 'team');
}

class Team_Model extends ORM {
  protected $has_many = array('matches');
}

The following code in a controller:

$match = ORM::factory('match',1);
echo $match->team1_id->name; /* <-- */

Is throwing the following error on the linke marked with /* <--- */:

Trying to get property of non-object

The framework is yielding the value of the foreign key instead of a reference to a Match_Model instance as it should (giving the has_many and belongs_to properties stated).

Am I missing something?

Note: Just in case, I've added the irregular plural 'match' => 'matches' in application/config/inflector.php
