So far I didn't come to a better solution than just wrapping the
methods I want to implement:
class AppModel extends Model {
function someFunction($params) {
return BetterModel::someFunction($params);
}
}
But I remember that there's some OOP function in PHP5 that catches
missing methods, right? In CakePHP, what is done with it? I know that
I get "error in your sql syntax" or something when calling a not
existing method, so I think CakePHP already uses this method for
something specific, but I'm going to investigate this further. Maybe I
can use it for my purpose (sending calls to not existing methods to a
module or something), too. :-)
