Re: [phpesp-dev] Porting to PEAR and/or PostgreSQL

[Charlie S. <Sm...@ld...>]

Where is the API located for PEAR?

Could the work I'm doing on an OCI8 (Oracle)  rewrite go to help in an =
effort to port to PEAR compliant DB?

I've a question with regards to how the NOT NULL default '' fields would be=
 =
defined in the PEAR description?
I'd be inclined to define these types of fieds as NOT NULL in Oracle and le=
t=
 the code or a trigger fill in the value
with something if needed.   Any opinions?

I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with the PEAR API.  Is this just a supporting =
library of php code?

Hi all,

I'm evaluating the use of phpESP for my company and have a few quick=20
questions.

=46irst, we use PostgreSQL for all our database needs.  Since phpESP uses=20
mySQL, we would either have to port it to PostgreSQL or assist in the=20
port to PEAR.  I'm experienced in PHP/PostgreSQL, and I think based on=20
the number of lines in the code base that have 'mysql' in them, that I=20
could do a port to PostgreSQL in 1-2 weeks.  I'd rather not fork from=20
the main distribution, so ideally I'd like to help in the port to PEAR,=20
but I've never used PEAR.  With a quick glance at the API, it looks=20
easy enough...fairly similar to Perl's DBI.  So my questions are, how=20
is the PEAR port coming along?  Would my help be welcome and useful? =20
Would phpESP only use the database parts of PEAR?

Thanks,
Jeremy
