How towork with propelorm


I am new to propel,any one can explain me about what is the use of it and how to integrate any framework with propel?


Solution

  • Well, since there is an entire website about Propel, full of documentation and the like, I'll bet they can.

    You bigger question, I think, is that you probably want to understand what the purpose of an ORM is. In short, it is a way of mapping between a relational database and an OOP framework, but Wikipedia has far more information, so you might want to start there.

    EDIT


    You mentioned in a comment that you'd like to combine this with CakePHP. Well here's how: don't unless you already know how to combine them. CakePHP has its own ORM system, so there really is no justifiable use case for having both (legacy code is not excuse -- just choose one!). If you're using Cake, use Cake and rejoice (you can have tea and skip on the or death)! If you're using Propel, use Propel and go somewhere.
