Dear all,
I have a function "MyFunction" from where I can call two different objects. Each on its own work fine, I get either "Result A" or "Result B". Both getManyManyComponents() from both DataObject::get are calling the same class.

So Result A and result B have a common subset of results. Is there a simple way to combine two DataObject::get?
Thank for your help


class DoResults_Controller extends Page_Controller {
  function MyFunction(){
    ....
   //$result = DataObject::get("TheOneObject","TheOneFilter");//Result A
   $result = DataObject::get("TheOtherObject","TheOtherFilter");//Result B
   return $result;
  }
...
}


class TheOneObject extends DataObject {
  ....
   static $belongs_many_many = array(
      'Topics' => 'Topic'
   );
   function GetThisOne(){
           return $this->getManyManyComponents("Topics");
   }
}  


class TheOtherObject extends DataObject {
  ....
   static $belongs_many_many = array(
      'Topics' => 'Topic'
   );
 
    function GetTheOtherOne(){
           return $this->getManyManyComponents("Topics");
   }
}
