I’ve got same problem as Rufinus …
In ZF 1.x was possible to change $this->_cols but seems that with 1.5.x it’s ignored …

Does anyone has a workaround ?

Exactly what I was looking for. I need to store a string in database but access it as it was an array. Good for me I decided to look whether somebody already did something similar. Thank’s a lot!

very nice. i try to get something similar to work.

eg. i have a DB field “changedate” TIMESTAMP (ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP).
when zend_db_table selects this field, i would like to get UNIX_TIMESTAMP(changedate) in the SELECT.

i tried to rewrite $_metadata and $_cols to get an zend_db_expr in to it, but it seems to be ignored.

it would be so nice if a simple $bar=$foo->find(1234)->current()->toArray(); echo $bar['changedate']; would display a unix timestamp in case of the mysql timestamp.

any idea ?
