pc guru: for now Zend Framework 1 is having a total rewrite and believe me Zend 1 is too compilcated and slow, i think for now Yii ,CakePHP, codeigniter is good but Yii is the fastest and the easiest that i know, to grasp first Zend Framework 2 is almost out which is a bit too complex esp with new patterns, try Yii if you don't like Yii or find it hard i'll send my real address for you to beat me up .

OK, I'll try to pick up Yii once I'm free from some projects
And incase it's not as you promised, don't hesitate to send
Your real address for me to.....

@bumdish, nah
The advantages of OOP PHP are too immense to ignore it.
You can't work with most PHP based CMS without understanding
OOP PHP, and also Zend framework.
PHP is fast becoming a full fledged Object oriented language
As of PHP 5.4. To ignore it is to remain outdated
And miss out the advantages and features.
Never regretted learning OOP PHP.
Happy PHPing

@ Pc_guru, u are right, one can get acquinted with OOP PHP
While working with PHP frameworks.
I will recommend Zend framework or DRupal CMS those are the
Ones I work with.

@pc_guru, noted. But - didn't have intention of going into that soon anyway. Thanks for the tutorial post. Guess you know much about OOP PHP too. Looking forward to more postings from you. Happy PHPing

TUTORIAL ONE: ADVANTAGES OF OBJECT ORIENTED PHP PROGRAMMING


CODE REUSABILITY

Breaking down complex tasks into generic modules makes it
much easier to reuse code. Class files are normally separate from the main script,
so they can be quickly deployed and reused in different projects.


POLYMORPHISM

Each class and object is independent, so method and property names are intrinsically associated with
the class and any objects created from it. There’s no danger of naming conflicts, so
methods(functions) or properties(variables) can have the same name as long as they exist in different classes.

If you have two functions bearing the same name in a script written in the procedural way, it will cause a fatal error.
In OOP PHP, you can have something like:

<?php

Class A {
Public function isEmail(){
// code goes here

}

}

Class B {
Public function isEmail(){
// code goes here

}

}
?>

There will be no error arising from the above code because each isEmail() function exist in a scope of its own, i.e encapsulated.



SIMPLICITY AND READABILITY


Imagine validating user form fields and all you see in the code is the following

<?php
// use class methods to validate individual fields

$val->isInt('age');
$val->removeTags('name', 0, 0, 1);
$val->checkTextLength('comments', 5, 500);
$val->removeTags('comments', 0, 0, 1);
$val->isEmail('email');

// validate the input and get any error messages

$filtered = $val->validateInput();
$missing = $val->getMissing();
$errors = $val->getErrors();

?>



The above code is simpler and easier to read and understand as opposed to the procedural way.

The details for validation and generating error messages is safely tucked away in the classes and

Can be changed at anytime without affecting the implementations above in the client code.


PROTECTING DATA INTEGRITY WITH ENCAPSULATION:

The idea of encapsulation is to ensure that each part of an application is self-contained
and doesn’t interfere with any others, except in a clearly defined manner.

Each object will behave like a black box separate from even other objects
of the same class and the data in them can be restricted by access level .


IN TUTORIAL 2......

We will be talking about: what are classes and objects? and how to create classes and objects in PHP
Later we will move on to advanced concepts such as[b] abstract classes and interfaces and also the different ways of generating objects such as Singleton pattern and the factory pattern.[/b]

Feel free to ask questions


Happy PHPing

@A-Zed and Hello1212, noted. We will kick off this week. Keep checking the thread for updates. Happy PHPing

Most companies nowadays hiring PHP developers are requiring knowledge of Object oriented PHP as a requisite. I have worked with many Frameworks such as PEAR, Zend Framework and also Drupal CMS and all of them are developed using object oriented Approach. Most PHP developers are still comfortable with the old procedural way of coding and are seemingly scared of the word OOP. I want us to use this medium to enlighten everyone the advantages of OOP PHP over the old procedural way and also post relevant tutorials to help pple learn. Once pple signify interest , I will also start posting tutorials also. Pls let's keep the thread Educative and dedicated to PHP

Almost forgot that I wrote the test too. Anyway, let's pray something good comes out of it.
