[heltem]

I made a patch to support Nested Set in 1.2 branch.

It is inspired from joesimms proposal. Feel free to make feedback

Patch to support NestedSet in 1.2

[heltem]

I added in 1.3 patch PDO use instead of Creole and PDO statement use.

Example usage:

$menu = new MenuNestedSet();
$menu->setText('Google');
$menu->setLink('http://www.google.com');

MenuNestedSetPeer::createRoot($menu);

$child = new MenuNestedSet();
$child->setText('Google Mail');
$child->setLink('http://mail.google.com');
$child->insertAsLastChildOf($menu);

$child = new MenuNestedSet();
$child->setText('Google Maps');
$child->setLink('http://maps.google.com');
$child->insertAsLastChildOf($menu);

$sibling = new MenuNestedSet();
$sibling->setText('Yahoo!');
$sibling->setLink('http://www.yahoo.com');
$sibling->insertAsNextSiblingOf($menu);

$child = new MenuNestedSet();
$child->setText('Yahoo! Mail');
$child->setLink('http://mail.yahoo.com');
$child->insertAsLastChildOf($sibling);

I fixed some missing features and added Iterator and IteratorAggregate implementation.

It seems to be usable but it is used as an external Peer and external Stub in parallel with standard Peer and Stub.

So, I am now working on an Propel integration in the way Joe Simms proposed with a full integration in existing Stub and Peer

I did not look into the patch yet, but qhat would be really nice is integration of the RecursiveIterator, so that you can iterate over the whole tree with one foreach().

Have a look at:  http://somabo.de/talks/200504_php_quebec_spl_for_the_masses.pdf

Thanks for your work.

I didn't used the RecursiveIterator? but the Iterator implementation allow you to iterate over the whole tree with only one foreach(). But it's surely be useful I take a look on your link. Thanks

Replying to heltem:

will the 1.2 patch be ever integrated to 1.2 sources ?

[soenke]

1.2 should be bugfix only. All new development goes in 1.3+
