As you know, the distinction between singular and plural forms of nouns is important in Cake naming convention. That is, model names (class names and file names) are supposed to be singular, while table names, controller names and view names are to be plural.
For example, we have LineItem and line_item.php in contrast to LineItemsController and line_items_controller.php, and there does not seem to be any problems because 'item' has a regular plural form of 'items.' But how about the irregular forms of nouns? Like 'person' and 'people'? Don't we have Person and persons.php in contrast to PeopleController and people_controller.php? From this singulra-plural convention, I suspect that Cake itself has a rule or table (or a dictionary) of singular nouns vs. plural nouns like the following, to get the framework run. person - people item - items potato - potatoes knife - knives fish - fish woman - women ... My question is how good or flexible the rules or the table are. (1) Is 'PersonsController' instead of 'PeopleController' as a controller class name intolerable to Cake when 'Person' is the model class name? (2) When 'Knife' is supplied as a model name, is Cake smart enough to take 'KnivesController' and rule out 'KnifesController'? To make the long story short, what is the CakePHP's definition of singular and plural nouns? How much should we count on it? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
