Not exactly - I am trying to add more functionality to an existing app. Basically trying to provide addon/plugin features to an core app - Cheesecake 2 What I am trying to solve is essentially non techie users wanting to plugin functionality - asking end users to edit code or for that matter asking them to upload parts in several different directories does not work very well Plugin offers a simple upload in single folder - add to it a dashboard to install/uninstall activate/deactivate these in your core app and you are rolling great. > To me, you are on a slippery > slope here to basically negating the whole benefit of a plugin Again no - a major benefit of a pulgin for me is allowing users to choose features and prevent bloat in core of the app >and > just making it more work on yourself.

For a end developer/commercial product perhaps yes All that said I guess a simple combination of ClassRegistry::getObject and loadModel will still work from within a plugin controller ;) Cheers Tarique -- ============================================================= Cheesecake-Photoblog: http://cheesecake-photoblog.org PHP for E-Biz: http://sanisoft.com ============================================================= --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
