[10:20] hello [18:49] nand: Do you think using the __autoload function would be a good idea? [18:50] for UW of course [18:51] qense: One friend use it on a project, but I didn't like it that much... But that's useful, yeah [18:51] * nand gogo dinner [18:51] ok [18:51] have a nice dinner :) [18:52] maybe it would be better to not use it and keep complet control of the included classes [19:18] it's really up to you :) [19:18] qense: so how's the project going? [19:19] I was busy with school during the last week, but am now working again at reorganizing the code to make it easier to work with (in my eyes). There are still some things from Brainstorm that were left and I want to use proper models, the things I've written so far weren't that consistent. [19:20] ok, yeah, better to reorganize and tidy thing a bit first before going deep into development! [19:21] yeah [19:21] You should do things right from the beginning, otherwise you'll be sorry later on. [19:22] It notice how important well designed code is when doing some maintenance on the website of school written by two other pupils previously. It's horrible to extend. [19:25] maintainability of code is a very important thing indeed! [19:26] yeah [19:26] Or you can easily spend hours to correct design mistakes [19:26] I'm learning important lessons here. :) useful for alter [19:26] later* [19:27] Do you think a separate user model is needed or does Drupal has already got a mechanism for retrieving user data? [19:50] qense: if you mean attaching custom data to users, you need to create your own tables. [19:50] otherwise you can load and search users with user_load [19:51] ok, that will probably do fine. Thanks! :) [19:51] Drupal API doc is difficult to find, but useful. Be patient :) [19:51] or just read the source code :) [19:52] the API doc works great, most of the times typing the functions in the firefox address bar works fine, just like the PHP documentation === hubuntu is now known as huayra
