Re: Is there a way to avoid name collisions?
I think this is something that should be mentioned in the Cake manual. How do I propose such a change in the manual?

Print out the list of declared classes, and avoid those names. Put this code in one of your views: That list show both cake and php classes, but it is not exhaustive, as it only show the classes that have been declared in that request. To see all cake classes simply look at the api: http://api.cakephp.org/1.2/classes.html http://api.cakephp.org/classes.html Of course cakePHP is still evolving, so you may encounter collisions in future releases. To be completely safe, use Chris' suggestion and add a prefix to your class names. I almost always use prefixes in components, helpers and... pretty much everything except models. Since most models are specific to a project, collisions should not be very common. If you give your models specific names, then you are not likely to have a collision; File and Folder are the exceptions! cook On May 21, 8:18 am, "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I want to share my experience and I have a two questions. > > But first my experience: > It took me a couple of days to find a bug I myself introduced in my > code. > > I tried to make the 'log'-function work but what ever I did it raised > the following error: > Query: append > Warning: SQL Error: 1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check > the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right > syntax to use near 'append' at line 1 in C:\Program Files\xampplite > \htdocs\cake\cake\libs\model\datasources\dbo_source.php on line 476 > > At first I thought there was a bug in the Cake framework.

Is there a way to avoid name collisions?
I want to share my experience and I have a two questions. But first my experience: It took me a couple of days to find a bug I myself introduced in my code. I tried to make the 'log'-function work but what ever I did it raised the following error: Query: append Warning: SQL Error: 1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'append' at line 1 in C:\Program Files\xampplite \htdocs\cake\cake\libs\model\datasources\dbo_source.php on line 476 At first I thought there was a bug in the Cake framework. So I filed a bug, https://trac.cakephp.org/ticket/2593. He, don't blame yourself ;-) Well it wasn't a bug, obviously. I used a model called 'File' in my application. And that's where the problem was, at least I think so. File is a class used in the Cake framework. And I think this caused some sort of namecollision with my own File-model. After changing my File-model to another name the trouble disappeared. :-) :-) :-) Now my questions: - Could it be the case that there was a name collision? - Is there a way to avoid these collisions? If so, how? Back to coding, Jos --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
