Re: [fw-general] [need advices] An idea to build a KISS ORM system upon Zend_Db_Table

I had a few special requirements for *my ORM*, which ZF ORM would need to cater
for:

- I need to configure the ORM classes to automatically add 'WHERE dogs.Archived

- If the current user has access only to certain breeds of dogs, the ORM
classes need to automatically add 'JOIN dogs_breeds ... WHERE dogs_breeds
IN({$user->allowedBreeds()})' when doing a '$dogs->fetchAll()'.

This allowed me to deal with 'hidden' records and a detailed security model
without re-specifying the rules everywhere in my application - it saved my alot
of time and testing.

cheers,

It seems to me that this would really be *your ORM* ;)

Personally, I don't see how your requirements conform with a KISS principle. However, possibly you could achieve your goals by extending overriding Zend_Db_Table's methods in your own *_Table classes.
