Model Calss And Rules Function

Yii 1.1 General Discussion
1

I don’t have any rules for the input fields, (name,place, position) so my model’s rules function returns an empty array, but then empty values are getting saved into the database table.

public function rules()

{

return array();

}

Also when I omit rules() function from my model

$model->save()

returns true but DB table get inserted with empty values.

so how can I omit rules() function from my model class ?

You should either declare all fields as ‘safe’ in rules(), or don’t use mass assignment.

Or, better yet, accustom yourself to ‘rules’. I wonder why you have to avoid ‘rules’.
