Re: test a table existence

I'm interested in this too. I just spent an hour and a half looking
for how to automatically create tables if they'er not present. I
couldn't find anything about the CakePHP method of doing this.
Automatic table creation seems like something that should be built
into the bake script??

http://book.cakephp.org/view/456/query should help - it looks like you
can take the MySQL dump, add "IF NOT EXIST" and put it in a query. It
looks like the simplest thing to do would be to put the query in the
constructor - instead of checking if the table exists, try to create
it. I'm wondering if there's a way to get the affected rows in a
table creation, if there's 0 affected rows, you know the table exists
and can skip any other table creation queries (assuming that all the
tables are created at once).

Also, I was looking for applications written in Cake so I could see
how they handled it. I can't seem to find ANY applications except
http://www.fileshifter.se/en/index.html (1,399 Euros!) Is there a
good list of cake applications somewhere?

Thanks!
