many thanks to you guys. i do appreciate for all ur replies here. i found it really useful to me. and yeah, i already decided that i could continue using cakephp as my framework (thnks god). yeah, i'd been searching many posts related to this issue and guess what, i didn't see there are lots of problem. so i just need to configure bootstrap.php on config folder for letting me using console without naming convention rules. and i need to declare the association manually on the model. a bit bothersome i know, but that's the only way.
thank you. ^_^ On Sep 6, 2:36 pm, WebbedIT <p...@webbedit.co.uk> wrote: > 100 tables, ouch .. yeah sounds like your going to have to leave it as > it is, but as others are saying it should work with a little extra > configuration.
