PureMVC Architects Lounge

Hey, I'm new with PureMVC and I got a question about my architecture.
In my applicaion I'm managing users, so I created: UserIDProxy
when user is created (by a press of a button for example) I create UserIDProxy and add it
to the facade with registerProxy() method.

as I said, I want to manage the users. for example to check how many users there are in the system
or make search by name/id.
how am I doing it?

I thought about creating UsersProxy class which will manage all the UserIDProxy objects
is that good idea?

thanks in advanced,
David

You might just make the UserProxy hold a collection of User objects rather than having a separate UserIDProxy instance registered for each user. This means you can iterate over all users, as well as keeping an associative array by name or ID.

thanks, and where is the best place for the collection?

As the data property of the Proxy. Expose a getter that casts data to type ArrayCollection (or Array if you like).
