I have to begin by saying that I don’t have as much
context as you guys do with the MVC components. That said, I firmly believe
that we do not have to establish rigid conventions for the location of any
resources. I have am currently writing up the proposal for Zend_Build which
includes the capturing of project metadata that would make such auto-loading feasible.
I haven’t thought about changing the loader to use this MD, but if you
feel this would be useful, please leave comments here to explain how this might
fit in to the whole system with MD: http://framework.zend.com/wiki/display/ZFPROP/Zend_Build+-+Wil+Sinclair
Thanks.

Yes that does look like it would help some but then you are calling
more code that what I believe is needed.
Why can’t the Zend_Loader take into account modules so then you
don’t have to have a helper and such.
I want it to be autoloaded and not have to call
$this->_helper->ModuleLoader(‘News_Story’) when ever I need
the news story object.
Does that make sense?

In my opinion, there is a
problem with ZF's naming scheme for MVC components, regardless
of our current discussion.
Zend_Loader defines a scheme to load classes. You're encouraged to follow this
scheme
within your ZF-based application: Zend_Loader('X_Y_Z') loads X\Y\Z.php.
Why ZF itself doesn't follow this scheme to "name and store" controllers
and models?
Inconsistent naming schemes leads to confusion; something which happens all the
time
to me when I want to name classes in ZF. "It makes me and you to
Think!".
There is an upcoming component "Zend_Controller_Action_Helper_ModelLoader"
to solve
models loading problem. I think that's a patch to solve the problem.
If ZF-ians follow a standard naming scheme through their framework,
these problems won't arise at all and we won't need these patches.

The only reason to make that model classes named that way is
to avoid namespace collisions, but you can name that classes as you like. The
problem will appear if someday a class named Story appears (from another
package or external lib), any attempt to use two classes with the same name
will throw an error.

Xavier,
I ran into that problem too. I just refactored the class name
to be new_Models_Story which makes no sense but it works for right now and
going back later to refactor once it gets all figured out wont be too hard as
the Zend Neon Beta does a good job of finding all the occurrences of that
class.
Cheers

Yes
But i remember to do that in lowercase (module names are in lowercase), so i
have all the folder structure in lower case.
At this moment, any way to organize better the model classes will be
apreciated.

So if I understand you correctly, I should be able to do this
$story = new News_Models_Story();
Where this is my directory structure:
./modules/
./news/
./models/
Story.php
Correct?

I'm treating model classes as framework classes
using the conventional naming to avoid namespace collisions, so all the model
classes common to all the application are stored in default/models/ and are
named Default_Models_* so they can be easily be localized. Of course, inside
the model class the "real name" is set with protected $_name.
You can have model classes in another modules and be namespaced accordingly.
The autoload function will find this classes the same way it finds the Zend
Libs and other classes.

Hi to all!
I made one folder to all my models, and I appended the include_path with the
path to this folder.
$models_path = APPLICATION_PATH ."My_Application/Model/";
// include $models_path to include_path somewhere
Then where ever in actions I might need some model I just make:
$model = new Page();
or something like that...
So these models are shared by all controllers & actions but not by all my
different applications.

Marko
