Using the SDO_DAS_Relaational - The Company Sample

http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/pecl/sdo/DAS/Relational/Scenarios/

The SDO relational DAS includes a sample based on a relational database describing companies, departments and their employess. The are a number of standalone PHP scripts which, when run using the CLI configured PHP, show you how to:

• Create 1 company record (1c-C.php)
• Read 1 company record (1c-R.php)
• Read and update 1 company record (1c-RU.php)
• Read 1 company records and add another one (1c-RA.php)
• Read 1 company record and delete it (1c-RD.php)
• This pattern is repeated for
  • 1 company and 1 department (1cd-*.php)
  • 1 company, 1 department and 1 employee (1cde-*.php)
  • Multiple companies (mc-*.php)

As you will see by looking at this sample there are several variations on the same theme.

Using SDO to build an MVC web application - The Contacts Sample

http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/pecl/sdo/scenarios/contacts/

A small MVC web application for maintaining a contacts database. The application uses the following layers

• User Interface/View - Browser/HTML
• Controller - PHP scrips to render Welcome and Edit pages and manage a confimration action
• Model - SDOs representing the contacts read from a MySQL database

The application demonstrates:

• Using SDOs to access and update data in a MySQL relational database
• Integrating SDO into application scripts
• Retrieving SDOs an putting their contents on a web page
• Storing SDOs in the session cache between calls
• Updating an SDO based on the contents of a POST
• Updating the MySQL database using SDO

Using SDO to generate an RSS feed from a blog - The RSS Media Sample

http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/pecl/sdo/scenarios/rss-media/

The bulk of this sample is very similar to the contacts sample in that it provides a web application for adding blog entries and confirming that they have been added. In this simple example the blog entries are stored in an XML file and the RSS feature shows you how to:

• read and xml file on request as an SDO
• copy the data selective into another SDO formatted as an RSS2.0 feed
• return the RSS SDO as XML over HTTP.

This sample is used in the article Streamline working with XML in PHP using Service Data Objects
