Simplified Chinese Version of my Zend Auth Tutorial
Just a quick heads up to let you know that that Jason Qi has published the Simplified Chinese version of my Getting Started with Zend Auth tutorial. You can find the PDF on his download site. Thanks Jason. Jason and others have also spotted a few issues with the tutorial, so I have updated it and we are now at version 1.0.4! Thanks guys for pointing out the issues so that the tutorial makes more… continue reading.
Questions regarding the latest tutorial (1.3.0)
I've been asked a couple of questions via email that I think are probably worth answering here, just in case others are wondering the same thing! 1) Why did you change the functionality of the BaseURL? You moved the BaseURL to the IndexController and in the previous version it was in the Bootstrap. The main reason I did this is that the new MVC code works out the base URL for us in the request… continue reading.
New Tutorial: Getting Started with Zend Auth
Having promised that I'd look into a tutorial for Zend_Auth ages and ages ago, I've finally managed to get one together… Note that this tutorial only covers Zend_Auth; Zend_Acl will have to be the topic for another one at some point in the future! As always, if you have any comments (especially corrections!) then please let me know. Who knows? Maybe we won't need 30 revisions to catch all the typos this time! Update That… continue reading.
Zend Framework Tutorial for 0.9.1
I've finally managed to update my tutorial for version 0.9 of the Zend Framework. Sorry for the delay. This is a significant reworking of the code to take into account the changes in the framework, so there are bound to be a few typos. If you find any, I'd appreciate it if you could let me know!
Typo in Zend Framework 0.9
The good news: Zend Framework version 0.9 came out today The bad news: There's a typo in Zend/Db/Table/Row/Abstract.php! (Issue is ZF-1080) To fix it, add a < at the start of the first line of Zend/Db/Table/Row/Abstract.php so that it reads: <?php Oh well…
Goodbye Zend.php
For those of you not following along on the fw-general mailing list, the Zend.php file along with its Zend class has now gone! This is good news as the Zend class was schizophrenic and provided functions responsible for file loading, registry, debugging and version information! Another side effect is that the entire Zend Framework is stored within the Zend directory making those who use svn:externals on their lib directory happier. We now have new classes:… continue reading.
Zend Framework Tutorial for ZF v0.8
A few people have asked about updating my Getting Started tutorial for version 0.8 of the Zend Framework. I finally had a chance to check the code and it worked fine with no changes (as expected!) Darren, one of my colleagues as recently gone through the tutorial for me and found some typos, so I have put out a new version (1.2.4) that fixes these. I've also updated the code too to make it slightly… continue reading.
Upgrade time
Just a quick note to warn you that the server that akrabat.com runs on is going to be upgraded tomorrow, so expect serious downtime as we see what happens when you go from FC-old to FC6 ! All should be back up and running by the evening though!
PHP UK Conference 2007
I've just come back from the PHP UK Conference (2007) held in London. It was a one day event with five speakers. I took a few photos, but most didn't come out too well as ISO 400 sucks on my camera! Cal Evans introduced us to mash ups and the pain of getting an API key from UPS! Simon Laws talked about SCA which was new to me and I thought it was a very… continue reading.
