Hans Lellelid offered this bit: After a long period of quite intense development, the Propel team is pleased to announce the release of Propel 1.0.0-alpha1. Propel is an object persistence layer for PHP5 based on Apache Torque. In practical terms, Propel allows you to use objects instead of SQL to read and write rows in your database tables. Propel provides (1) a generator that creates SQL definition files (DDL) and PHP classes for your datamodel, and (2) a runtime engine that transparently handles object persistence and retrieval. Propel makes it easy to customize generated classes; additionally, the use of XML, PHP classes, and the Phing build tool make it easy to integrate Propel with an existing application framework. Visit http://propel.phpdb.org to learn more about Propel. Some of Propel's features include: * Use of simple XML schema for datamodel definition * Generation of PEAR-style compliant, phpdoc commented, PHP5 classes. * Easy to customize object model (& changes won't get overwritten). * Generation of SQL definition files (DDL) for your RDBMS * Several popular databases supported: MSSQL, MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite. * Support for reverse-engineering XML schema from database * Use Criteria OO query system instead of writing SQL queries * Generated methods to easily & efficiently work with (foreign key) relationships Gary Every Sr. UNIX Administrator Ingram Entertainment Inc. 2 Ingram Blvd, La Vergne, TN 37089 "Pay It Forward!" -----Original Message----- From: Thierry B.
