Where is it appropriate to define inflector rules in CakePHP 1.3?
- by Daniel Wright
In CakePHP 1.2, custom inflector rules could be defined in a file app/config/inflections.php. This file was removed in CakePHP 1.3. Instead, the documentation prescribes using the Inflector::rules function to load custom inflections.
There's adequate documentation of how to define the custom inflections themselves, but the documentation gives no context—where to use Inflector::rules.
Should any custom inflections be defined in the bootstrap.php script? At the top of applicable corresponding controllers? Somewhere else?
