How Does Yii Default Scopes Work?

Yii 1.1 General Discussion

Can someone please help me understand the process of where the default scopes are called? I can’t seem to find anything regarding that anywhere - I have checked, CActiveRecord, CDbCriteria, and CActiveDataProvider with no luck.

Where does the defaultScopes get deployed into? Where does it get stored?

The active record find methods call the method query(), which calls applyScopes(), which in turn calls getDbCriteria() in which the default scope is applied.
