Hi all
I have some functionality in my AppModel that I'd like to publish as a
plugin or so, so I can re-use the code in other projects.
So far it looks like this:
class AppModel extends Model {
function readRandom() {}
}
Now one possibility is to extract my functionality into a class that
will be put between AppModel and Model:
class BetterModel extends Model {
function readRandom() {}
}
class AppModel extends BetterModel {
}
But this isn't very flexible be cause I'm constructing a fixed
inheritance chain this way. In every project I'd have to put this
manually into my AppModel - when only having one such feature-rich
model this isn't a big problem, but what when I have several more
feature-rich models? AppModelWithFunctionality,
AppModelWithMoreFunctionality, AppModelWithEvenMoreFunctionality etc.?
Then the inheritance chain gets really awkward and isn't flexible
anymore when differently combining those functionalities in different
projects.
So is there a solution for this? With behaviors one can create awesome
functionality that is run automatically, but I don't see that they
would help me in solving my problem...? Or do I miss something?
Thanks a lot
Josh
