over 10k records i would consider massive |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 08:45 |
tbranyen_ |
that doesn't seem very massive |

we have shared hosting plus we want the results to be real time |
| # |

the Quiz maker updates the answer of the question, then all the player who have attempted the question, their scores get recalculated |

or scheduler |

TommyO |
ammadsaleem1: sounds like the work of a cron job |
| # |

Because the former is a horrible idea and the latter can be done by just adding a script to the rc local or windows startup |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 08:43 |

whenever someone hits the site or whenever the server starts? |

pgcd_away: $this->model() |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 08:43 |
TommyO |
pgcd_away: see Helper class, which all helpers, including your, inherits. it has a model() method |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 08:42 |
ammadsaleem1 |
? |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 08:42 |
ammadsaleem1 |
is there any other solution to the probelm |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 08:41 |
ammadsaleem1 |
since it may cause script time out, so i am going for threading |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 08:41 |
ammadsaleem1 |
The thing I want to carry out is to perform a mass database update |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 08:39 |
pgcd_away |
of course, i might resort to good old foreach, if needed |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 08:39 |
TommyO |
it is stateless |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 08:39 |
TommyO |
ammadsaleem1: do you understand PHP? the application starts on each new visit and ends when the page is returned to the client |

I tried using $this->data in the helper, but the fields are grouped by model, and I'd like to avoid having to use model names in the helper... |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 08:38 |
ammadsaleem1 |
no just when the appliction on the Server starts |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 08:38 |
pgcd_away |
if i have a helper that sets default values for fields with a certain name (in any model), what's the best way to make sure the defaults don't overwrite the actual values when they are available? |
| # |

in which you can use standard functions as beforeFilter() and so on... |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 08:36 |
TheBig |
anyway you should work in AppController |
