something like this , that allows you to set the db in an AR, would be nice to have in the core in the near future
It allows you to define a variable in the model to use a different database
Something like
class User extends CModel{
public function connectionId(){return 'db2';}
}
would use "db2" database connection
It would only add to the framework, without modifying its essence
Yeah, yeah i know
check out the link i posted
Its an extension I’ve made after read the tutorial link you sent
The extension also comes with support for different connections in gii model creator
What i mean was that it would be nice to add something like that in the core
for example, in my extension
the method ‘connectionId’ returns by default ‘db’, and you can overwrite it in your model to use a different one, returning a different database connection component
It only adds default functionalities to the framework’s core
and to add multiple database support for gii you just need to change a couple of lines and will save peoples time
please check out the extension file
Anyway, just my suggestion
