Re: Delete multiple Rows / Empty Table?

[Felix Geisendörfer]

Hey, well I know that Model::delete(null) could lead to a couple of issues, but since it was the only delete function I found, that was one of the ways I tried it to do the truncate for me. I think we should have a function called deleteAll (like you suggested) that has $conditions and $cascade as parameter. So depending on how you set those,  the function will either do a simple "truncate"/"delete from" or loop through all items matching the $conditions and then delete them and their related items. What do you think? -------------------------- http://www.thinkingphp.org http://www.fg-webdesign.de AD7six schrieb: I am pretty glad that delete/null is NOT tranlated as a truncate statement - would be pretty easy to do by mistake, and if a user has access to the delete function, doesn't mean they should be able to wipe out the table :). I would guess that in principle it would only need: function truncate () // or deleteAll { $this->query("TRUNCATE TABLE ".$this->table); } to be added the the model defenintion. Of course, that would leave floating data lying around if there were associations to take care of and the DB didn't have cascading deletes. I'll vote for a request on this point, cheers, AD7six ps.
