I never write the xml for propel. we use DBDesigner (although it is not a well-written software, and there are problems with running it on linux) and convert its xml files automatically to propel format. what's more we have our schema generation stuff which joins together several dbdesigner xmls (and generates code for some features propel does not have like inheritance and multiple table referencing foreign keys) however I agree in that yaml is cleaner and easier to write. but php can use yaml if you have a yaml parser class in your framework, like symfony has it. greets Zoltán Németh > > > -- > Greg Donald > http://destiney.com/ > -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
