Just found this other generator which seems to be way less buggy than PCG... : http://www.phpobjectgenerator.com
they have a sourceforge project too it seems:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpobjgen
thought i'd share.
Hi, I've looked at the website for POG but the software doesn't seem intended to be so 'integrated' as PCG. Mind you, I'm no programmer which is why I have looked at CodeGenie! Maybe when I've tried using CodeGenie and seen what it does I'd say something different.
Cheers

I haven't looked at POG, but I stumbled onto QCodo which is somewhat more sophisticated than PCG, but to my senior-citizen understanding, MUCH harder to grasp and utilize.
One thing that QCodo allows that I haven't figured out how to do automatically with PCG is that if you created foreign keys in your database tables, QCodo will make place-holders as drop-down lists in the ADD routines. It's not a big deal to add them manually to the output of PCG, but it is somewhat time-consuming.
Other than that, PCG is MUCH faster to reach a "demo/prototype" stage than QCodo. And with a small amount of tweaking, the generated code even validates against W3C standards, if that's important. (I haven't completely eliminated manual edits to get validated code, but its a small price to pay for the generally consistent output.)
Best regards to all.

Hmm Dave
I'm not sure I agree with you about Qcodo and PCG. I have been using both for almost six months now and think that Qcodo is a much better tool. It is more limited in the number of databases it can connect to, but that's about it's only fault. I think it's object-oriented approach makes it much more powerful and useful but may make it appear a little more complicated.
Qcodo isn't for everyone and if you don't have a background in OO then it may not be for you. I have found it a step up from PCG which, I was very enthuastic about when I first found it. The best thing to be said is that you can use both or either one that takes your fancy rather easily.
