Re: [PHP] Bizarre array create error

I'm trying to assign two fields of an object returned from a MySQL

create two arrays in succession.
Here's the MySQL query with two dummy fields to be filled in later
select *, 0 as dummy_1, 0 as dummy_2 from table
Here's how I'm grabbing the query results
$result = array();
while ($row = mysql_fetch_object($query_result))
{
$result[] = $row;
}
Once that's done, I try to set two of the rows to arrays like this
$result- dummy_1 = array(1, 2, 3, 4);
$result- dummy_2 = array('a', 'b', 'c', 'd');
$result is an array and you are treating it like an object...
While this is supposed to work, I think, it's pretty confusing to this
naive reader...
$result['dummy_1'] = array(1, 2, 3, 4);
would make more sense...
And you do realize that your actual objects are ELEMENTS of the array
$result, not $result itself...
So maybe you want something more like:
$row1 = $result[0];
$row1-dummy_1 = array(1, 2, 3, 4);
That said, you're altering an Object that MySQL returned, and I've got
NO IDEA what kind of an object that is, or what you're allowed to cram
into its variables...

[PHP] Includes eating up my time
PHP general list, This is probably obvious to people who are good at PHP, but I'm I have a PHP based CMS (content management system) built, which has grown and become quite robust. It's now spread out over about 30 files, and each file represents one class within the object oriented design. Each are a couple hundred lines of code, and two or three of the most critical classes are over a thousand lines of code. While first building it, I didn't really anticipate quite that many files. What I did is have a file called includes.php, which list all the files to be included. Then I in turn included includes.php at the beginning of my index.php file. Every page request passes through the index.php file, so that basically means every single file is included at the start of every new page request. I'm using Zend Studio, which has a profile option, which shows how long it takes for my PHP scripts to complete a request. It has a breakdown showing percentages of which scripts are using that processing time. Currently, my processes are taking under a second, but they can be around half a second or more. Although it all happens too fast for me to really notice as a person, it seems to me that a half second of processing time might be kind of long and lead to scalability problems. My first question is: Is a half second too long? I'm pretty sure it is, but maybe I'm just being paranoid. What do people consider to be acceptable time frames for processing a web page similar to what Wikipedia delivers? Most of the time is taken with the includes. Anywhere from 60% to 90% of the time it takes to process my scripts is coming from the includes.php file. I read somewhere that it's not a good idea to have more than 10 includes in any one place. I'm fine with trying to break up my include requests, but I'm unsure as to how. As each function in each class passes around objects, it's not clear from looking at the code which ones are used at any one time, so I'm unsure how to efficiently include only the necessary classes. My second question is: Is there a systematic way of determining how to incrementally include files that people use? Or is it just a constant process of testing and checking?

That's hardly the worst performance I've seen from a CMS, but you should know that nearly all CMS systems are slow, many slower than this, for similar reasons. The solution is usually to build a front-end cache, either in the CMS itself or using an external tool. For instance, MODx caches internally, while others rely on Apache/Enfold/etc. My first question is: Is a half second too long? I'm pretty sure it is, but maybe I'm just being paranoid. What do people consider to be acceptable time frames for processing a web page similar to what Wikipedia delivers? When you quote Wikipedia, you do realize that they're not a CMS, right, that they're a Wiki? There are some subtle differences. I haven't looked at Wikipedia's Wiki code (I like TWiki) but the Wikis I've used don't actually use a database or a billion classes to get their work done. They're more focused on editing an entire page of static content, which is stored on disk (and thus directly accessible by the server). If you want that kind of scalability you also MUST implement some sort of caching. PHP is a scripting language, and no scripting language will ever keep up with compiled code, no matter how good (and PHP is good). You might also consider looking at the Zend Optimizer - I've never tried it, but have heard good things. My second question is: Is there a systematic way of determining how to incrementally include files that people use? Or is it just a constant process of testing and checking? PHP does have an auto-include system called the autoloader. We use this heavily in Blackbird ESB to load classes on the fly when they're referenced.

Snap :) One small point though; you're missing a required space before
selected. It should be:
echo selected=

This is only possible with IE as the client on an NT domain with the server on the same domain. If you're using IIS on the server then it's as easy as removing anonymous and basic authentication from the site/directory. If you're using Apache or something else you need to find an extension/module that provides NTLM authentication, but not all of the ones I tried fully supported the transparent side of it. I implemented this for a corporate intranet a while back in Apache on FreeBSD with mod_ntlm (Google for it - dunno if it's still maintained). That was in 2004 and information was sparse, but with a bit of research and *lots* of experimenting I was able to get it to work.

[PHP] Array difficulty
Hi all,
I have an array like this:
$chance = array(lowercase = 27, uppercase = 62, integer = 46);
The values for each of the keys are randomly generated. I want to find the key
name of the one which has the highest value. Currently, I'm doing this as
follows:
arsort($chance);
foreach ($chance as $type = $value)
{
$result = $type;
break;
}
At this point, $result would be equal to uppercase. I feel like this is a
really kludgey way to accomplish this. Is there a better way?
Regards,
Carlton Whitehead

Here's how I'm grabbing the query results
$result = array();
while ($row = mysql_fetch_object($query_result))

$result[] = $row;

Once that's done, I try to set two of the rows to arrays like this
$result- dummy_1= array(1, 2, 3, 4);
$result- dummy_2= array('a', 'b', 'c', 'd');
$result is an array and you are treating it like an object...
While this is supposed to work, I think, it's pretty confusing to this
naive reader...
$result['dummy_1'] = array(1, 2, 3, 4);
would make more sense...
That doesn't work. (I tried already) You have to use the - syntax
for objects returned by an MySQL query.
And you do realize that your actual objects are ELEMENTS of the array
$result, not $result itself...
So maybe you want something more like:
$row1 = $result[0];
$row1-dummy_1 = array(1, 2, 3, 4);
Yeah. My original post was incorrect. I'm actually doing something
more like your above suggestion
$result[0]-dummy_1 = array(1, 2, 3, 4);
I posted the complete function at 1:04 a.m. July 30 if you want to
take a look
That said, you're altering an Object that MySQL returned, and I've got
NO IDEA what kind of an object that is, or what you're allowed to cram
into its variables...
The weird thing is, I've been doing this type of assignment for a
couple of years, haven't upgraded my copy PHP for a year, but all of
a sudden it breaks. Very puzzling...

On Tuesday 31 July 2007, Dave M G wrote: PHP general list, This is probably obvious to people who are good at PHP, but I'm I have a PHP based CMS (content management system) built, which has grown and become quite robust. It's now spread out over about 30 files, and each file represents one class within the object oriented design. Each are a couple hundred lines of code, and two or three of the most critical classes are over a thousand lines of code. While first building it, I didn't really anticipate quite that many files. What I did is have a file called includes.php, which list all the files to be included. Then I in turn included includes.php at the beginning of my index.php file. Every page request passes through the index.php file, so that basically means every single file is included at the start of every new page request. Yep, that's the downside of a shared-nothing architecture. Initialization gets slower. Possible solutions include: - If you're using all classes, use PHP 5's __autoload() or better still spl_autoload_register() to load classes on demand instead of all at once. - Refactor your code to conditionally include code only when needed. E.g., you probably only need one page handler loaded per page request. I'm in the process of doing that for Drupal right now and the savings are quite substantial. - Op code cache. This is exactly where an op code cache will get you the biggest win, by saving you the loading and parsing time. - Page caching. To do page caching best, you should have the system do a partial bootstrap, check to see if it can serve a page from the cache, do so if it can, and if it can't only then finish loading the rest of the system. That way you skip most of the loading process on cached requests. - Some combination of the above. I'd do the op code cache last, as that's a sure-fire easy win while the others take effort. So do those first, and then whatever's left you can throw an op code cache at for an extra boost. -- Larry Garfield AIM: LOLG42 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 6817012 If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it. -- Thomas Jefferson -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Are you saying that anyone who owes a copyright is obtaining money through force or threats? That sounds strange. Yes, the force of the government and courts.

It's a government-granted monopoly that serves a legitimate purpose, but absent that force information flows freely and replicates itself as it passes from person to person. Restricting that flow of information to create a profit motive is an artificial creation of very recent legal systems. That's the point that we've been making all along. It allows authors (well, copyright holders) to extort money for their work for a limited time in return for making it public after that time has passed.

Taking the past out of its historical context is a guaranteed way to have no idea what you're talking about and to make claims that are completely and totally wrong. As

Re: [PHP] Objects
well im not trying to convince everyone to start doing oop, just because i dont have time. maybe if i get rich and have time ill go on a dedicated mission or something. anyway i think its obvious that objects are powerful. look at the big php projects out there; wikipedia, facebook, many of the new frameworks that are coming out. i dont see how you expect to build a big system on procedural code, then maintain and extend it w/o pulling your hair out. but then again i never really studied procedural design. i started out w/ c++ back in high school and been going from there ever since. dont get me wrong ive written assembly for mips and worked with a wide variety of languages, but quite frankly i treat php development much like java development, as a high level language focused on the use of objects and interfaces. -nathan On 7/31/07, tedd [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: At 1:25 AM -0500 7/31/07, Richard Lynch wrote: On Sun, July 29, 2007 12:45 pm, Nathan Nobbe wrote: one of the hardest parts about using design patterns in reality is you have to be able to recognize a certain problem and then you can begin to understand how to apply a particular pattern or set of patterns to your solution.

[PHP] Unexpected values in PHP array
Hi
I think this is probably just a misunderstanding on my part, but I'm
creating associative arrays with string keys from MySQL query results
and when I put a value in the array, I get the expected key
association along with an index key that has a different value.
For example: If I have a table Foo, do a select, perform coersions
on the results, and place the coerced value in an array with a key, a
second uncoerced value is also placed in the array with an index key.
I know all associative arrays have both key and index accessors, but
I would think that the values should be the same.
Here's the full function.
(Note: The line where values are added to the array is: $fields
[$key] = $value; after the coersions switch statement)

{
$query = $inQuery;
$coersions = null;

[PHP] US Salary Averages for Developers
Good morning, afternoon, evening, or whatever the case may be, folks. I'm just looking for responses from some of you on salary averages for those who work with LAMP on a full-time basis. My job consists of much more than that, including full *nix server administration and security; web architecture drafting, interface design, backend programming, and content editing; integration with previously offline-only proprietary technology, and more. I'm also the only web developer in the company, charged with not only managing the web servers, but also developing and updating the whole shebang. As of now, I'm making far less than what I had made on my own, but because I have faith in the company that I work for, I wanted to get this first, massive project out of the way to prove myself before renegotiating my salary and developing a career path with this company (should I choose to remain here instead of taking the offer I got from Google --- very sweet). The bottom line, if any of you are working full-time in a LAMP-related position, could you give me some pointers? Or, if you've seen job postings with salary ranges (I've already tried to run reports on the web, but they're too single-task-centric), I'd appreciate the heads-up. Thank you all! -- Daniel P.

Re: [PHP] Unexpected values in an associative array[Solved]
Turns out that objects returned from SQL queries contain two parts
for every field, one with a string key and one with an index key.
Adding an is_numeric test on the keys allows you to filter out the
numeric keys if you want to. For example:
foreach ($row as $key = $value)
{
if (!is_numeric($key))
{
/* do stuff here */
}

Adding an is_numeric test on the keys allows you to filter out the

thats the documented behaviour of mysql_fetch_array. but you do have
mysql_fetch_assoc and mysql_fetch_row at hand, which return an array
with one method of indexing only

Daniel, unfortunately php isnt fetching the fat salaries java and .net are. especially for strictly development. administration is another story and that seems to be a typical supplement to a well paid php programmer. by my estimation avg. salary for php developer (strictly) in the us is around $50k. $80k is high, above that is exceptional. for administrative work as well i think youre looking at some negotiating to settle on the final amount. -nathan On 7/31/07, Daniel Brown [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Good morning, afternoon, evening, or whatever the case may be, folks.

RE: [PHP] Unexpected values in an associative array
From: Ken Tozier [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hi
I think this is probably just a misunderstanding on my part, but I'm
creating associative arrays with string keys from MySQL query results and
when I put a value in the array, I get the expected key association along
with an index key that has a different value.
And here's some sample output
array(6) {
[task_id]=
int(22)
[0]=
string(2) 22
[container_id]=
int(3784)
[1]=
string(4) 3784
[name]=
string(12) 108-6972.XTG
[2]=
string(24) 3130382D363937322E585447
}
Why is that? Is there any way to fix this without coercing the same value
twice? Once for the key accessor and once for the index accessor?
Thanks In advance
Ken
What is $coersions or $inQuery['coersions']? Maybe a var_dump or a print_r
on that for the list?
What is $value and what is this supposed to do:
case'integer':
$value
+= 0;
break;
case'float':
$value
+= 0.0;
If $value is a string, you should quote your 0 and 0.0. What add 0 or 0.0
to an int or float respectively?
Do a print_r on $row before your foreach ($row as $key = $value) and echo
your $key and $value as the first line in after that for loop. Then echo
$coersions[$key]. Does $coersions[$key] have what you want for switch
($coersions[$key]) at this point? I assume you expect $coersions to contain
datatypes, but does it?
Perhaps start at the end considering the structure of the output array you
want, then consider how to populate it to have that structure.
What's the extra [] about in $rows[$groupKey][] = $fields;
Maybe that's where your duplicates are coming from although I don't see
duplicates in your output.

I'm assuming you're after transparent authentication where the user doesn't need to do anything to authenticate with the site. This is only possible with IE as the client on an NT domain with the server on the same domain. If you're using IIS on the server then it's as easy as removing anonymous and basic authentication from the site/directory. If you're using Apache or something else you need to find an extension/module that provides NTLM authentication, but not all of the ones I tried fully supported the transparent side of it. I implemented this for a corporate intranet a while back in Apache on FreeBSD with mod_ntlm (Google for it - dunno if it's still maintained). That was in 2004 and information was sparse, but with a bit of research and *lots* of experimenting I was able to get it to work.

print_r on that for the list?
For the above record, $coersions is an associative array of the form
array('task_id'= 'integer', 'container_id'= 'integer',
'name'='hex_decode');
I found that I was doing a lot of coersions with results of SQL
queries to turn them into real integers, floats or decode from base64/
hex before I could use them so rolling all that ugly stuff into the
query makes it so users of the function don't have to do coersions
any more. There may be a better way to perform coersions from string
types returned by PDO queries and their real types but I'm a PDO noob
so don't know if one.
What is $value and what is this supposed to do:
case'integer':
$value
+= 0;
break;
case'float':
$value
+= 0.0;
If $value is a string, you should quote your 0 and 0.0. What add 0
or 0.0 to an int or float respectively?
The point of these is to convert the strings to ints, floats, decode
them etc...
What's the extra [] about in $rows[$groupKey][] = $fields;
Maybe that's where your duplicates are coming from although I don't
see duplicates in your output.
Another thing I found the need for was to group rows in a select
result by specific keys. For example say a query gets all ads in a
publication, and you want to physically group them by page. That's
what that group function does.

Looks like I have an empty space somewhere...this code is called down in a
class and if I just cut this out and copy into it's own file and call that
file from the browser, it works fine. It is someone getting garbled down in
the class.

The Radboud University in Nijmegen (The Netherlands) has a 100MiB quota till a few months ago, it has been changed to 1.5GiB now I think.

Re: Re[2]: [PHP] Reading registry values
2 simple VBA/VB functions that write to specific place in the registry. Here is my library of code on this: GetSetting(App.EXEName, "Properties", strPropertyName) SaveSetting(App.EXEName, "Properties", strPropertyName, Trim(CStr(varValue))) Specific place: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\VB and VBA Program Settings If you issue a GetSetting when none exists, it simply returns an empty string. If you issue a SaveSetting where no entry exists, it simply creates the entry and places the value in the entry. Essentially , these have built in error handling.

I was a big supporter of remote work until recently. I myself worked extensively from a home office (every day, barring a day or two a month when a client visit was required, usually for sales meetings), and loved the freedom and extra time it gave me. When we started our new business, my business partner convinced me that this wasn't always a good idea, and now I can see the other side. We have a design and development team here that works VERY closely together. I don't mean we have meetings once a day, I mean we talk CONSTANTLY. You couldn't possibly do this with IM or e-mail - it's too slow, and too annoying, and you can't do things like slide your chair over and see your colleague's screen. We'd need to be on the phone the entire day. If we didn't have a development TEAM - if everybody worked on their own projects - it wouldn't be a problem. Also, if we had a HUGE project that we could document very well, then go off and do our own things for a while and come back to meet up and discuss, we'd be fine. But we're a startup, so our requirements are changing daily - it's not poor software engineering, it's just the nature of a startup. Agility is one of our best assets, and not one we'd ever want to sacrifice. Are there solutions? Sure. You could talk about remote control apps, Skype, and so on, but they're all hacks, things to make it 'ok' to do remotely what would really be better in the same office, the same room. All of this is just IN THIS CASE - I'm not saying working remotely is wrong. However, I CAN say (honestly) that for an average employee commute time of 20 minutes each way we gain 2.5 hours a day in productivity gains. We work together as a team, we can comment on each others' ideas all as a group, and we don't have to say Well, Chris said that Eric said ... From an employer's perspective, it has other benefits. For one thing, morale is much higher this way. It's hard to feel like a member of a family when you never see the people you work with. If somebody puts in some long hours, you don't get the emotional impact from seeing an e-mail sent at 1am that you get from seeing a guy in the same chair, same clothes, that he was in when you left late last night, because he pulled an all-nighter. I think each method has its place. Working from an office isn't the 'old' way, it's just 'one' way. Working from home or a remote location is 'another' way. Each is appropriate for different situations, and neither is inherently wrong or right. Use the best thing that works for your situation.

[PHP] Problem with filemtime
I'm running the following script (simplified for discussion) to create a CSV file. My problem here is that the first filemtime and the last filemtime always equal each other. What I am trying to get is the filemtime ($new_last_modified) of the file that was just executed 3 lines earlier. Is there something I need to do differently? I tried putting a sleep(20) after the fclose, but that didn't seem to help. $csv_file = myFile.csv; $last_modified_csv = filemtime($csv_file); $fh = fopen($csv_file, 'w') or die(can't open file); fwrite($fh, Data Goes Here); fclose($fh); $new_last_modified = filemtime($csv_file); -- Kevin Murphy Webmaster: Information and Marketing Services Western Nevada College www.wnc.edu 775-445-3326

Re: [PHP] Reading registry values
Hope this isn't overkill but it is a module (read COM, or VBA module) to manipulate the registry: Overkill is a massive understatement. :-) As noted elsewhere in this thread, I got what I wanted by using the PHP exec command to execute a VB script, which has all the registry access I need. Much simpler than compiling and installing a COM object module. :-) To answer everyone's curiosity as to why I want to access the registry, I am working on my home computer with a dynamic IP, and I need to know what it is so I can modify my httpd.conf (or hosts) file, if necessary. The ASP page I am converting is my browser home page, which has lots of useful stuff I obtain with server side scripts. Here is a snapshot (no, this isn't my home server). http://crash.thedatalist.com/temp/home16m.png I am currently running both servers (Apache and IIS), but I'd like to use a universal scripting format. -- Crash Please reply to the group.

Re: [PHP] Profile / Debug w/o server modification?
From: Richard Lynch [EMAIL PROTECTED] Your dev box should only match in software versions (okay, and any really funky specialized hardware like a hardware random number generator MAYBE). Don't ask them for a Gigaplex Mu-on 16-cpu 64 Gig RAM 4 Terabyte hard drive box. Take an old box out of your closet and install the same versions of the OS, Webserver, DB, and PHP and call it done. Now, a QA box, where you do load-testing and serious release candidate testing, yeah, THAT should match the production box, if at all possible... Do you know of any (free as in money) disk imaging software that would capture all the patches/configurations/etc. Actually, as I write this, I remember the reason the imaging tool I used had mysterious failures was probably due to bad memory, and I could use a different box now. Thanks for the advice. Regarding duplicating the box versus software: I'm working on a C++ project on a Mac Pro and a MacBook Pro. Both have Intel Core 2 Duo (but the Mac Pro states Xeon, while the MacBook Pro does not detail that. The Mac Pro is 4 cores while the MacBook Pro is 2 cores). Both use MinGW for Mac 3.4.5, the same mtapi http://www.metaquotes.net/files/mtapi.zip and Wine 0.9.40. Same OS version of course, and only 2GB RAM in both each. I was able to compile on the Mac Pro, but when I tried on the MacBook Pro, I receive undefined reference to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I also saw that on the Mac Pro, but I don't remember exactly what I did to resolve it. I used -shared on the MacBook Pro, and I know I did not use that on the Mac Pro.
