Re: How To / Example of OO Inheritance for CakePHP 3

Do the official Tutorials, they'll teach you how to work with CakePHP.

http://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/tutorials-and-examples.html

The level of abstraction in CakePHP is higher than what you describe, you don't implement these methods on model or table objects, entities represent data. They represent data objects and you can implement accessors and mutators to implement more specific behavior than a simple getter and setter. I highly recommend you to read the documentation.

how would one create a CakePHP3 app and what database tabels would i need to create an app that uses inheritance.

for example fictional setup:

[Person] <--- [Customer]

[Person]<--- [Manager]

All Persons have "name". Customer has "order_amount". Manager has "sales_total". 

Person has a method "getName()" , which is avavailable through inheritance in Customer and manager.

Person is the parent class and Customer and manager are the child-classes.

How would i implement this in CakePHP?

I could create a customer and manager database table and bake this to two models. but that would mean that the getName() function would be implemented in both classes. 

Could somebody help me grasp this in cakephp? thanks.
