Comments on: Part 1: Access Control List – a model to solve all models! http://www.childofthemachine.com/blog/2007/09/part-1-access-control-list-a-model-to-solve-all-models/ Mon, 30 Aug 2010 06:37:39 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: Grant Perry http://www.childofthemachine.com/blog/2007/09/part-1-access-control-list-a-model-to-solve-all-models/comment-page-1/#comment-45 Grant Perry Wed, 20 Aug 2008 12:10:23 +0000 http://grantusmaximus.com/web/2007/09/14/part-1-access-control-list-a-model-to-solve-all-models/#comment-45 Unfortunately I've been overseas for a few months travelling and had put this project on hold. However it is still a requirement for a large application I'm working on so hope to pick back up on this particular module in the future... Whilst I have some solid theories on how this can be achieved, I have nothing to share at this stage. But would be interested to here others thoughts on how this could be approached. My main concern is a module like this could be costly on performance, which I was going to address with caching of either a user's privileges or an entities allowed users (or probably both). As a module like this could additionally be used for multiple items in a page (e.g. list of entities only some with an 'edit' option), as well as just at a functional page level.

I can't seem to find the subsequent articles. I'm in the process of doing something very similar...any help would be greatly appreciated. I’d be interested to see how this turned out for you.
