P3 Podcast for May 1st, 2008 - The Twitter

Paul and Sean over at php|architect have released the latest episode of the P3 podcast for May 1st, 2008 - "The Twitter".

Still no resolution on the USB audio problem. iPod failed, too. That leaves us with 2 laptops and internal mics. I'm eagerly anticipating 10.5.3, and if that doesn't fix it, I'm going back to 10.5.1. Fail.

Topics mentions are php|tek (coming soon to a Chicago near you!), type hinting and the optimizer Google Summer of Code discussions on the Internals side and the "making WP themes from scratch" and Magento talk on the community side.

You can either pull their feed into your aggregator to get this and other great P3 episodes or you can just download the mp3 directly and enjoy.

Davey Shafik's Blog:

We can expect big things from Davey Shafik in the coming months - he's been working on a book for php|architect about one of the more powerful bits of functionality in PHP - streams.

For about 6 months now, I've been itching to write a book on the PHP Streams Layer - one of my favorite features of PHP; and also one of the least known considering it's powerful abilities.

He describes his goal simply as this: to create the definitive resource for working with the streams later in PHP. It should be out sometime in the third quarter of 2008, so keep your eye out for it then.

Book Review php|a's Guide to Programming with Zend Framework

Ivo Jansch has posted his review of the php|architect book about the Zend Framework by Cal Evans:

Before I voice my opinion, a disclaimer: I have met Cal personally; in fact I'm having diner with him next Monday, I'm writing a book for php|architect, and my company is a Zend partner. I could not be any more biased. If you still trust my judgement (and I will try to remain objective), read on.

Ivo mentions the important things - like how fun the book is to read (a book about a framework, who knew?) and what sort of things it covers. Components of the framework are mentioned but so are things like caching, layouts and web services. I'd give away the ending but that wouldn't be any fun so go check out his unbiased opinion of hos the book turned out.

php|architect Database Design for PHP Programmers by Mac Newbold

Maggie Nelson has pointed out an article in the most recently published edition of php|architect magazine (the February 2008 issue) that's an introduction to database design for programmers (by Mac Newbold).

It's a pretty good article about database design and I think all PHP developers who are just starting to integrate databases in their applications should read it. However, there are a few things I'd like to add and point out.

The "blurb" for the article mentions MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, Microsoft SQL, SQLite and database schemas. You can find out more about this issue, including how to get your own copy, from the php|architect website.

Cal Evans has officially announced that his book, php|architect's Guide to Programming with Zend Framework, has been pushed out the door and into the world.

Well, my first book, php|architect's Guide to Programming with Zend Framework has officially been released in PDF format. You can order it now or pre-order the dead-tree edition. [...] On a related note, the support site for the book, www.zfguide.com is now live.

Right now the site only has a few code examples (the ones mentioned in the book) but he does have plans for a lot more content including some possible "lost chapters" going over what there just wasn't room for between the covers.

Check out some of Marci Tabini's comments on the book and its release as well.

Zend Developer Zone:
php|architect Announces 'Programming with the Zend Framework'

The Zend Developer Zone has posted an announcement about a new book from php|architect (authored by DevZone's own Cal Evans) - Guide to Programming with the Zend Framework.

This is a project I've been interested in since it's very beginning, mainly because I'm the author of this particular tome. [...] The php|architect web site was a bit more helpful giving a breakdown of the contents of the book and a useful quote.

The book covers topics on the framework like the parts of MVC, web services, authorization, exceptions and even some tutorials to help you get started (including a look at the brand new Zend_Layout class).
