Re: [fw-mvc] MVC integration of Zend_Acl

AFAIK people just randomly decided to implement access management in plugins. I don't really see any advantage in using a plugin over a helper. Since you're referencing the controller object itself in your implementation, it's much more natural to use a helper since it already has a reference to it, whereas in a plugin you'd have to do a bit more work.

Hi all,

I've been working on a component to realise the MVC integration of Zend_Acl
which is different from the proposal
(http://framework.zend.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=39025) that
seems to be on hold.

I'm using an action helper the perform the checks at pre dispatch time on
controllers implementing Zend_Acl_Resource_Interface instead of a plugin and
am wondering if there's any underlying reason that would encourage the use
of a plugin.

I would really much appreciate your feedback on the action helper approach.

The code can be found there: http://code.google.com/p/oolala/

Thanks,

Thierry
