Thanks again. I think you've set out exactly an opinion I was after. Off
course it all depends on which level one has stepped in, is now and
wants to be when start using a framework.
I've not taken the step to build my own or tested anything as an early
adoptor on any of them. But I see that RAD makes the difference
nowadays. Time is money. People want more features in less time etc. If
I don't get used to a framework very soon, I'm out of business.
I want to do the whole thing. I want an environment that takes a lot of
fuss out of my hands:
- Unit testing, never done it, but sounds reasonable.
- MVC, makes sense but can be interpreted over the top.
- DB abstraction.... The environments I've been in don't switch from
DB's over night, so I don't care.
I wanna see my queries and where they come from, period. I don't need no
fricking querybuilding stuff.
- Form handling. Validation is key. Security is important, so sanitizing
input must be done as early as possible.
- Error handling. Get information back from your code. I need that
together with Unit testing. Should save debugging time.
etc.
Voila, all arguments for a good framework. Zend sounds really a stable
and reliable product. I'm gonna setup a testserver and see how far it goes.
BTW, any people having experience with PHP UnderControl?
