Doesn't time fly!
After reviewing the code in Validator/Rules, I'm convinced that I
could refactor Zend_Acl to use the Zend_Validator with a base 'acl'
rule and reduce some excess baggage in the code.
The integration with the controller concerns me less as I can see
that would be a design choice implemented on a per-site basis, but
the Filter and Validator as base classes/interfaces is something I
know a lot of developers will find handy as bricks and mortar to the
more complex classes.
Gavin/Darby/Andi - what would we need to do to move this into a more
finalised proposal? Chris, I would put my hand up to help finalise
documentation/testing/feedback/coding to get these towards a finished
implementation.
Do I sound eager? ;D
The code I posted with the proposal back in March (yikes) can be
downloaded here:
http://ap3.sourceforge.net/zf_filter-validator_0.2.zip
It should give you the general idea as the code is very simple.
There are examples and a README.txt. There is even an example
showing an ultra-basic Form Controller. I think the only additional
feature requested is to add the ability to have global Filters that
run on every value in the Request.
I'd be glad to upgrade this to work with a more current Request
class and implement any other changes that you and Ralf need.
