what different res_model model,what effect , when use model or res_model? need explained :-)

here have major different between res_model , model,

for odoo action of view:

model :

in model action important base record database table hear used store particular action of record id.

in example :

model="ir.actions.act_window" as ir_actions_act_window database table

id="open_gtd_all_tasks_pci" as unique id action table record

which used create new record id,res_model,search_view_id,context,view_type,view_mode ir_actions_act_window database table

res_model :

action of particular model

for odoo design of view:

for model="ir.ui.view" record ir_ui_view database table store new record planningtask_calendar_view_inherit unique id , same name,model,inherit_id fields storing record.

hear model field desgin view particular model (database table).

in odoo(openerp) understand . (dot) particular model name , make _(underscore) , store record database table.

like res.partner module odoo (formally openerp) treat res_partner database table.
