I've been using Ruby on Rails for quire a while, having been forced into it primarily because of its excellent support for nested sets. However, I'm increasingly disenchanted with it because it seems to break everything every time a mine release occurs -- a sign of a product that is far from mature. In addition, its hosting requirements are excessive. I'm looking at going back to PHP as my primary server- side language and the possibility of CakePHP as my framework.
Before I can do that, I need to know, what kind of support is there for nested sets? I'm using nested sets for hierarchical categories of n-depth, so I'm not very interested in the ability to produce nicely indented HTML listings or breadcrumb menus. I need easy maintenance of the categories table with the selection of arbitrary parents and easy assignment of categories with a display constructed of the category plus its ancestry, such as "Computera > Programming Languages > PHP > Forms" Hope all that makes sense. This information as well as any other impressions you might have about migrating from RoR to Cake would be most appreciated. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
