Hi, After reading much about the Service Manager implementation in ZF2 and trying out a few things, I think I finally get the concept and the idea behind it.
But please help me understand one thing. Imagine I have a medium size database with 10 entities. Along them are 10 form definition. The input filter is described in the entity. in the service_manager I have a factory for each entity. (as the code is mostly the same the factories extend from an base entityFactory). then I have a factory for each Form (again extended by a base formFactory) which along other things inject the input filter from the entity. Is this really the right way? It seems extremly redundant to do this for each entity/form. There are abstract_factories which can work around this, but after what I have read, this is more of a fallback. Is this so? Can't I not just have a formFactory and a entityFactory? I would just have to implemnt the canCreateServiceWithName method to only target form respectively entity classes. Is there a downside to have multiple abstract factory classes? What is the best practice ?
