Hi. I'm setting up some attributes that are arrays in inherited classes. For example, in /app/app_model.php I have the $validate rules that apply to some columns which appear in every table. Similarly, in /app/ app_controller.php I have some universal $paginate settings such as the limit.
Now I'm trying to add to these universally applicable values in the arrays with values specific to each model and controller. For example, adding rules that are unique to each model and paginate settings specific to each controller. Does anyone here know the official, recommended, CakePHP-approved way of adding new values to these existing arrays once they've been inherited? I can't use $validate += array(stuff); outside of a method. Would putting it in beforeValidate for the model, and a similar line in beforeFilter for the controller, achieve what I'm after? I have the feeling this technique *might* work, but I'd be doing it in a really bad way. Is there a clean, simple way of doing this? Sorry if it's in the documentation. I had a quick look for it, but I'm not really sure what to search for.
