A few basic things, such as naming conventions and primary keys, are all you generally need in your DB.
"Do I also have to setup the constrains in my database?" Do you mean 'constraints' as they appear in SQL table definitions? If you're referring to SQL commands such as REFERENCES, ON DELETE CASCADE, etc, CakePHP might be able to use them to understand table relationships - I don't know, the databases I use don't support this syntax. However you generally achieve these associations between tables at the PHP level, by creating a few variables in the right classes to define what other tables are linked to this one, and what these relationships are. In fact, this is much more powerful than the features available directly in SQL! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
