Is it possible to get and set default values for MySQL columns in CakePHP?
I am wondering if it would be a good idea to use MySQL default values to set the default configurations for table data. For example, I have column quota in table users. Instead of storing the default quota limit in a separate table, it would be easier to set the default value of the column. Currently I haven't seen any in-built way to access the default value in CakePHP. Moreover, I haven't seen this done in just PHP either, I did do a quick Google. Is this a good idea? Is this something everyone has been doing already for years and I've only just thought of? Also will this solution work with other databases? Your thoughts are appreciated. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
