Re: Shared Models in Different Modules

The problem or issue i see with this is if you have a bunch of modules it would be pain to always keep modifying your bootstrap file to keep track of these.

what would be ideal is if when this command is given:
   ->addModuleDirectory($this->dirApplication . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'modules')
it would register all the model directories or something like that to handle it.

Not sure how it would be done but it's an idea.

In my opinion, each Module should be self-contained. Let's look at
each module as a package. This allows you create new projects
via the well-known copy-paste technique! However, the default
module needs access to other models to collect the magnet content.

We can put "./application/modules" into the include_path.
But we cannot use the Zend_Loader to load models using the
following syntax: Zend_Loader('{modulename}_models_{ModelName}').
Because Zend_Loader checks for the class name to match via
the given parameter.

Perhaps we need a Zend_Loader::loadModel to load the required models
in each Action Controller, and of course, there could be a method, say,
setModuleModelDirectoryName().
