[Deprecated] DMZ 1.6.2 (DataMapper OverZealous Edition)

[eluser]OverZealous[/eluser]
Announcing 1.7.0 Release Candidate 2

I decided to go with get_iterated, since it is the most accurate description.

However, the get_iterated method works a lot differently than it did before. The old version required capturing the result of the method call, and iterating over that object specifically. However, I was able to integrate the Iterable directly into the main class, as well as provide seamless access to exists() and result_count() on the same object. Usage now looks like this:

Code:

$countries = new Country();
// get all countries
$countries->get_iterated();

if(!$countries->exists())
{
    echo('No countries found');
}
else
{
    echo($countries->result_count() . ' countries were found.');
    foreach($countries as $country)
    {
        // process like normal
    }
}

I think this is pretty slick! It means switching to the new method is as simple as adding _iterated to your existing code. (The new method now returns $this for method chaining.)

This update includes several bugfixes, the renaming of get_large_query to get_iterated, and there are also two new methods, get_paged_iterated and count_distinct. The manual has also been updated.

Also, the example application now is using get_paged_iterated, so you can see how it works in practice.
