Hi Ralph,

In your class UserCanModifyBlogPostAssertion, you are throwing an InvalidArgumentException if the role is not a User or the resource is not a BlogPost. I’ve found that this can cause a problem if you query the ACL with strings instead of objects:

$acl->isAllowed(‘user’, $blogPost, ‘modify’); // throws exception

Although the query doesn’t make a whole lot of sense, this is still correct usage of Zend_Acl. It may be better to return false in your assertion if you can’t work with the passed in objects.

“In plain English, what developers want to be able to do is be able to design assertions that can accept application models that implement the Resource or Role interface, and be able to apply some dynamic or custom logic to assess whether or not the given role has access to the given resource.”

That’s actually pretty funny, believe it or not. (-:
