I now submitted my final patch for the upgrade shell:
http://cakephp.lighthouseapp.com/projects/42648/tickets/2117-improvements-for-20-upgrade-shell#ticket-2117-15
the removal of the name attribute worked quite well.
all thousand files where it occurred have been successfully processed
so far.

I added the removal of those names in my UpgradeShell script with
these patterns:
$patterns = array(
array(
'remove var $name = ...;',
'/\bvar\s*\$name\s*=\s*(.*);/',
Talking about $name property, it is not just case of PagesController
and CakeErrorController (descendant requires to set either $name or
$viewPath) - it is used in most of CDC plugins - I know it saves some
processor ticks, but it also forces developers using classes like
model Users.User as parent
The only reason $name was set in your own classes in older versions was for
support in PHP 4. The code below is the same code as in previous versions
but in PHP < 5 MyClassName would be returned as myclassname. To make
conventions work I suggested people set the $name attribute when I first
wrote t
IMO, only reason to add $name property could be - extending class
(controller/model) where it is defined as well.
For example, core PagesController contains line -
public $name = 'Pages';
- therefore your controller
class MyPagesController extendsPagesController { ... }
will need $name propert
It is not needed, and should not be used.

Just asking a possibly dumb question. I'm working through the 2.0
tutorial to become more familiar with it. Is it required/advised/
unnecessary to add:
$public $name = 'Whatever';
...to models and controllers? The tutorial sometimes has it, sometimes
doesn't.
