Doctrine ORM in CodeIgniter - pros and cons?

I haven't personally used Doctrine, but have been told it works well. My understanding is that it requires a significant amount of setup, and works magically after that The ORM I typically use with CodeIgniter is called DataMapper ORM which is a native CodeIgniter solution. Installation is simple (copying a couple files), setting up models is stupidly easy, the tables are simple, and it uses the existing application's database settings.

For all the magic without the setup, I'd recommend DataMapper Regarding the use of created_at and updated_at columns, only add those columns when you need to track that anyway, such as a blog post or a system user. Specifying those columns lets the ORM handle those fields, so you don't need to, so whenever you create or update objects created from the database, those fields are updated automatically.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
