What is the guestimate release date for r2? it depends on how much additional help we receive. the data i/o pipeline is functional and nearing completion our presentation tools are under development and I expect those to go pretty quickly there is some work left to do on the make system. and after that we need to generate usage/reference documentation for developers. with the current level of activity, probably the end of the month for the early releases and a full r2 ~3 weeks or a month after that. _alex -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] FW: AW: agh - Compile w/php
hi all, I received this from a guy at SAP regarding a SAPDB compile with php: As you might have guessed, I am still unable to compile --with-sapdb I've entered a bug report with all of the details: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=16100 If anyone has successfully compiled SAPDB with PHP on any machine, please get in contact with me and tell me what you did :) -alex Hi Alex I think, I've found the solution. Facts: - libsqlod is the driver - libsqlrte is some lib of our runtime env - libsqlrte is added to the libs in the configure file Therefore, php wants to link with -lsqlrte which is actually not necessary. Solution: - quick and dirty: cp libsqlod.so libsqlrte.so - edit php's ext/odbc/config.m4: delete the line AC_ADD_LIBRARY(sqlrte) in the sapdb section. Then autoconf, configure, make ... The problem is a remainder of the ancestor ADABAS. Please tell me, whether it now works for you. I will then inform the list about this.

[PHP] SAPDB compile problem
hi all, Apologize if php-dev is inappropriate, but since this is a compile problem I thought it would be relevant. I have cc:d the sapdb-general list as they should be aware of these compile problems (and that is where I first asked for help). I would like to construct a guide for people using SAPDB with PHP in real multi-machine enterprise situations and will do so when I resolve this compile issue: I'm trying to compile PHP 4.1.1 on RH 6.2 w/SAPDB. Yes, I will upgrade to 4.1.2 very soon :) Problem: During make, I get: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lsqlrte Which is surprising because I rsynced my copy of sqlrte into /opt/sapdb/depend/lib from a real install I have on another machine. (the real is a full, current server install... on this machine I only want the client libs) I also used the tarball from ftp://ftp.sap.com/pub/sapdb/bin/patch/sapdb-odbc-linux-i386-7.3.0.21.tgz which is (unless I am wrong, please correct me) fairly useless because it does not contain that sqlrte lib that is required by PHP when compiling --with-sapdb=/opt/sapdb/interfaces/odbc/lib anyway, despite having included the correct path(s): /opt/sapdb/interfaces/odbc/lib /opt/sapdb/depend/lib in ld.so.conf and having run ldconfig... I still get /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lsqlrte What's worse (and much more confusing): root@core lib ld -v |grep sql /// i.e. no results from this search, which lists all known libs root@core lib ldconfig -v |grep sql libsqlod.so = libsqlod.so libsqlrte.so = libsqlrte.so libsqlcls.so = libsqlcls.so // note that ldconfig _is_ tracking these libs. AGH! I have never seen an instance where ldconfig knows about something ld doesn't. I tried coping all files to /opt/sapdb/interfaces/odbc/lib just to give it a shot, and that didn't work (though I'm not surprised it didn't). I have also tried a number of variations of the --with-sapdb path just to ensure it isn't me being a complete idiot. what should I try next? or better, does anyone know how to solve this problem?

[PHP] Re: [PHP-DEV] SAP DB
SAP DB is just another name for AdabasD from a programmers point of view- Ah, cool. http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.odbc.php Well, yes. In addition to normal ODBC support, the Unified ODBC functions in PHP allow you to access several databases that have borrowed the semantics of the ODBC API to implement their own API. Instead of maintaining multiple database drivers that were all nearly identical, these drivers have been unified into a single set of ODBC functions. so the call interface to AdabasD/SapDB looks like ODBC, but you have direct access to the database using PHP, you don't have to deal with ODBC driver management and all the stuff if you don't want you AHA! Fantastic! as said above: it is all there ... just the documentation could need a little update ... Yes, As I didn't know that SAPDB = AdabasD I was unaware... In any case you have made my day, thank you :) All on bc-dev... hehehehe, + excellent +. and Mike, I'm going to use this.

[PHP] SAP DB
hi all, One of the binarycloud developers just told me to have a look at the SAP OS database, SAPDB. I'm going to test it tomorrow to see if it actually does what it claims, but this _looks_ like serious OS competition to Oracle, and if it is I would very much like to use it for my next project. So, question: Has anyone used SAPDB with PHP? If so, experiences? And if not, are there plans for drivers? I looked in the manual and I didn't see any mention of SAPDB. Oh, and I just found a mention of PHP on the SAPDB site. Looks like the connection is over ODBC, which I really _really_ dislike... are there plans for anything native? like a sapdb_connect :)? In any case I think this database has a _HUGE_ amount of potential and PHP would benefit if access to SAPDB was possible. please e-mail me directly as I am not subscribed to the NGs: [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] thanks, _alex -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I'm currently writing The PEAR Manifest, a document that clearly defines PEAR once and for all. I'll post the first draft on pear-dev here when it's done, but to answer your question, there has been talk about a core set of packages for a while. In the manifest these are called PFC (PHP Foundation Classes), although it will not say which packages the PFC includes. The manifest also covers PECL, and how PEAR relates to applications and frameworks. Fantastic. This is all great news and I really do look forward to working with you so we don't duplicate efforts.

[PHP] Re: [binarycloud-dev] Re: [PEAR-DEV] New Metabase Aniversaryrelease
I will first focus on the functional aspects, then step by step making the necessary changes to make that final code compliant to the PEAR coding standard. This makes no sense for PEAR. I propose this way: 1. pearize Metabase (functionNames, using PEAR_Error) 2. commit the stuff to PEAR 3. create a wrapper class matching PEAR::DB I agree with all but 3. Metabase offers a superset of the functionality available in pear, so the exiting API must be extended to support metabase's additional functionality. otherwise, Lukas, fantastic and I await your work... we will be using your code in binarycloud as soon as it's ready. Manuel: will you mintain metabase based on Lukas's work? i.e. is he taking a branch or are you working together? (I hope it is the latter... as I would really like to see the metabase code adhere to the pear coding standards). best, _alex -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

* Manuel Lemos wrote: I think that the greatest point of the merger is to have one and only one abstraction layer in PEAR, I think consensus was that there shouldn't be the one and only XYZ PEAR class but more than one XYZ PEAR class (like IT[X] and the PEAR rewrite of PHPLib's Template class). Again, I agree about everything but database abstraction. It's fine to have applications use 5 different template engines as its only a matter of taste. binarycloud supports smarty, xslt, and standard php classes.. I'm sure we'll support more in the future. The database abstraction layer's behavior and capabilities dictate application development and we sure as hell don't want 5 abstraction layers with the same API floating around. IMHO that's actually _worse_ than just having different abstraction layers compete, because it can confuse new developers. We had this discussion a while ago, I was actually under the impression that everyone agreed that metabase was the most architecturally and functionally mature package, while PEAR clearly had a cleaner OO api because it wasn't burdened with PHP3 compatibility. I would _very_very_very_ much like to see metabase core code replace the current PEAR::DB codebase, but use the same API as the existing PEAR::DB. PEAR people and us out there building applications have a lot to gain if that happens. _If_ that happens I think we are all better for it: we gain both the good api and the mature package... and everyone can start using the same abstraction layer so we can all start sharing applications properly (again one of the primary ideas behind binarycloud). If it is indeed the intention of those running pear to (in the long run) have multiple abstraction layers, I think that is a bad mistake. However, until whoever decides these things makes themselves clear I don't really have an opinion :) _alex -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have a system that internal users access - I have separated access levels into 1, 2, 3 etc. So if you have access 1 you can view certain things - If you are 2 then you can view more or other things. However the problem arises when someone in access level 1 wants to access a level 2 function. I then manually specify that: if (access = 2 or user=joe) { Allow the functions ... } This can get messy - as individuals will be specified all over the place on a large system to override levels of access. Is there a sensible standard that is used to have levels of access but special people can access certain higher level functions.? Why not have a database with all usernames/passwords/access levels in there, and when the user logs in (either with htpasswd or a form login script system) that info is recorded by a cookie. Than have a function which is at the start of every page which passes the access level of the user, and which levels can access the page. Say there was 5 levels, you could call the function this way auth_user("$access_level","N","N","Y","N","Y"); The function just needs to grab the first variable as the users given access level, then the next 5 variables state whether levels 1 thru 5 are allowed to view the page (only level 3 and 5 can view it in the above example). If the users access level returns a Y for its corresponding level, then its allowed to proceed, otherwise they are shuffled off to a page telling them to (nicely) go away. I dunno if this is a clutzy way of doing it (chances are it is) but thats how I would try and implement it, and you can also create a nice simple admin screen system to maintain all users and access levels.

Re: [PHP] error message handling
You probably want to suppress the error message with an @ symbol. Try putting an "@" before the function calls that give you errors. you want to avoid doing that, I recommend properly handling the error. ?php $x = @php_function_here(); ? This suppresses the error function. Many functions return FALSE if unsuccessful, so you can test and supply your own error message. better to write a handler to deal with your errors properly. ?php if ($x == FALSE) { print ("error."); } ? If you find yourself doing this alot, you may want to create a wrapper function or wrapper class around the original. Look at PHPLIB's DB_SQL class for an example of how they suppress error messages. Look at www.php.net for more info. or have a look at binarycloud: http://www.binarycloud.com best, _alex -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [PHP] load balancing with php/apache?
We used LocalDirector for awhile, with it's 'sticky bit' functionality, and it basically didn't work with AOL. I just looked at the coyote product and they claim it works with 'large ISP' proxies - maybe a veiled reference to AOL directly (why not just say AOL?). from my testing, the "EQUALIZER" (I kind of like how obnoxious the name is, actually :) does in fact work with AOL. Do you have any more info on HOW they do this? The only thing I can think of is that they code it recognize particular IP blocks known to be proxies for AOL/mindspring/etc and route ALL traffic from these to a particular box, which doesn't seem terribly balanced. OR... they drop a separate 'cookie' or similar header data piece between the server and the client and track that. The installation I tested is not large, though, and I did not hit it with more than one client.. in the case of the particular site, it doesn't matter... but I would be interested to know that. Either way, it seems a bit expensive, although cheaper than LD, last time I checked. Yeah, Cisco r' bastards :) At _least_ for the money, their stuff does actually work most of the time. Personally, we do the 'stateless' model with session data in a database - works fine. Your coyote solution is still stateless, but the session data is kept local to the webserver. Yeah, we might end up writing a session handler for binarycloud, probably "switchable" so you can store sessions on the machine re: php.ini, or pipe 'em to your DB. Problem I see with that is that if you need to take a particular machine offline, hundreds of people could lose their session data. Same can be said of taking the database offline, but taking a db offline will probably affect the whole site anyway. Part of the benefit of an intelligent load balancer is that you can remove/take down machines for maintenance/upgrades without worrying about the impact on the visitors. Am I missing something? Nope, not a thing. That is a consequence of the stateless-but-not-quite model. In my case, it's fine. In other cases, it certainly is not :) _alex Alex Black wrote: what? you use an utterly completely stateless model? craziness! so you set cookies, and store the sig in the db? agh! :) I'm using this box from "coyote systems" called, wait for it: "THE EQUALIZER" which is a really obnoxious name, but it sticks clients with a particular server intelligently, so we can be ever-so-slightly-lazy about that. do you _like_ that system?

There must be a way to pass the result set of an SQL query into the set of placeholders - the end result would be that you could call whole sites via simple queries.

Re: [PHP] mixing HTML and PHP code

Well, this may be a bit specific, but that is probably part of your problem. You have no structure associated with your application design: what are you doing making a connection to a database on the same page you spit out the results from? Nonononono... that was just an example. My real code looks more like this example: - ? include "common_head.php"; echo "SPAN CLASS='title'Welcome to blah blah section/SPAN"; echo "TABLETRTDName/TDTDEmail/TD/TR"; $query=ociparse($conection,"select name,email from people where blah blah blah"); ociexecute($query); while (ocifetch($query)) { $name=ociresult($query,"NAME"); $email=ociresult($query,"EMAIL"); echo "TRTD$name/TDTD$email/TD/TR"; } ocifreecursor($query); // optional include "common_footer.php"; ? -- In common_head.php i have the conect-to-database functions, and because the way include() works, i can happily use $connection in the main code. It also makes a loginpassword comprobation, getting data from cookies and the stuff. common_head.php also has a main component: the UPPER WEB DESIGN. That means that the upper logo, left-side menus, CSS links, common javascript code and stuff is also stored there. common_footer just has the bottom part of the design - bottom common links, and lots of well measured /TABLE closings. The trick is tell the web designer to work the main common design in dreamweaver or so, then pick the HTML code, and separate it in "upper" and "bottom"... in the middle of that you have the space to put whatever you are spitting out from the DB. And aside from that, i don't have a one and only common_head.php ... i have a separate plain common head, in plain HTML... the real common_head.php should look like (definitively not real PHP sintax): right, and though this is not directly related to templating: I thik you would benefit greatly by introducing some system design (i.e. separate "layers" doing separate tasks) I don't like to do database connections when I've already output markup, what if something goes wrong, or I want to do a redirect, etc? I like to access functions in "DB Object" files - those functions return results in arrays which I can pass into markup. Makes the code a _helluvuh_ lot more maintainable. ? connect_to_database(); do_cookie_stuff(); // First of spitting any HTML, // you get from cookies, make comprobations, // and re-store cookies or whatever... // This do_cookie_stuff can be a little hard. include "plain_html_head.php"; ? That way, your dreamweaver expert can design the main design (better with some stupid test text in the place of the spitted-out-from-database-data), and you as PHPer only have to cut out the HTML code (not a really hard work) into two parts. As i see, it can work perfectly this way. How you format the spitted data and stuff is another matter but anyway, getting the code that dreamweaver generates and implementing it shouldn't be a real hard task. True, but why not just bitch at macromedia until they include support for PHP in ultradev?

Even if you loose a LVS, the failover is transparent. The connections hang for about 5-15 seconds, then transfer over to the other machine. With the traffic that we have, we opted to use direct routing, this way there is no translation (thus no additional CPU on the LVS machine) needed for the answers; the web servers talk directly back to the client themselves.

Re: [PHP] DocBook Editors?
A lot of technical people aren't keen on WYSIWYG editors. Especially when I'm technical, and I'm not looking for WYSIWYG. I'm looking for something that doesn't require me to memorize yet another large set of tags. :) dealing with something like docbook that is designed to generate documentation in dozens of formats. vim with its syntax colouring or emacs with its validation mode really do a good job. I have been writing a lot of docbook stuff lately for work and I find I am an order of magnitude more productive than I ever was using something like Word.

uh, while I agree that including your html is definitely the way to go, you _must_ mix php with html to a certain extent, assuming you're actually doing anything interesting like talking to a database. if you're _only_ including files (i.e. using php as a replacement for SSI) I guess that would work. but, so long as the php code is _extremely_ light, and the logic is stored elsewhere, sounds good to me :) definitely avoid print() and echo like the _plague_ for html output. -alex -- Alex Black, Head Monkey [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Turing Studio, Inc. http://www.turingstudio.com vox+510.666.0074 fax+510.666.0093 Saul Zaentz Film Center 2600 Tenth St Suite 433 Berkeley, CA 94710-2522 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ("MR") Newsgroups: php.general Date: 10 Jan 2001 15:46:51 -0800 Subject: RE: [PHP] mixing HTML and PHP code Brian Clark ...

Since all my servers have SSH running I would like to be able to offer a PHP download/ upload system that uses SSH instead of FTP. How can I upload / download files using SSH through PHP? Has anyone ever did it before?
