Fair point. Why don't you create a gist with an example of what the model + hint declarations would look like in separate classes. I'm not convinced that this distinction matters, but I'm sure the DM developers would respectfully take a close look at your insights. They are a really great group, very helpful on IRC, etc.
- vidarh 15y agoI would if I had time. Or they could just read the chapter of Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture that they took the name from - it's the chapter right after Active Record :) Page 165. Martin Fowler went into a decent amount of depth in describing the pattern. His site also has a decent summary available for free. I don't think this is exactly is lack of awareness on their part, though - as someone else has pointed out, Datamapper actually implements the Active Record pattern. Structurally the two are very different.
