[DC-801] Multiple template implementation (setImpl)

Sat, 28 Apr 2012 11:56:51 +0000

I feel curios when looking setImpl code on Doctrine. It set like this:

public function setImpl($template, $class)
{
    $this->_impl[$template] = $class;

    return $this;
}

I've made a template:

class PersonTemplate extends Doctrine_Template
{
    public function setTableDefinition() 
    {
        //... Person fields (e.g. name, address, etc.)
    }
}

Now I create 2 class that implement PersonTemplate

class Student extends Doctrine_Record
{
    public function setUp()
    {
        $this->actAs('PersonTemplate');
    }
}

class Teacher extends Doctrine_Record
{
    public function setUp()
    {
        $this->actAs('PersonTemplate');
    }
}

Then I set implementation on Doctrine_Manager:

Doctrine_Manager::getInstance()->setImpl('PersonTemplate', 'Student')->setImpl('PersonTemplate', 'Teacher');

Now isn't it only Teacher record recognized as implementation of PersonTemplate ( when we see from this code: $this->_impl[$template] = $class; )

So how we can implement a template into seperated different doctrine record?
