Re: [PHPTAL] Patch for Configuration Methods
Hi Joshua Agreed. Thanks for pointing that out. I guess the term got more generalized along the way as method chaining implementations started popping up everywhere. Btw: Nice reference!

Maybe I missed something, but it looks like you enabled method chaining, not a fluent interface, which uses method chaining to make a sort of DSL. Method chaining is useful for cutting out boilerplate code (love it in jQuery), and it looks helpful here, it's just not "fluent". http://martinfowler.com/bliki/FluentInterface.html ___ PHPTAL mailing list PHPTAL@lists.motion-twin.com http://lists.motion-twin.com/mailman/listinfo/phptal

It adds very little new functionality - the main aim of these new methods is to simplify PHPTAL's integation into third party frameworks like Zend Framework, Symfony, etc. The secondary aim was 100% backward compatibility - no one need to change their existing code if the patch is applied. This is a good idea. Thanks for the patch - I've applied it. -- regards, Kornel ___ PHPTAL mailing list PHPTAL@lists.motion-twin.com http://lists.motion-twin.com/mailman/listinfo/phptal
