During the last three years I have been working a short practical guide for learning PHP. The guide includes texts and video clips. The texts were written in Hebrew. The video clips were taken in Hebrew as well. You can find it at www.PHPBook.co.il.
Zend Technologies has recently announced about PHPCloud, its cloud solution for PHP development. It is currently still in its beta phase. The following video clip created by Kevin Schroeder shows the first steps.
The singleton design pattern provides us with a solution for ensuring that a given class won’t be instantiated more than than one. This video clip explains it using a code sample in PHP. You can find the source code available for free download in my PHP Design Patterns course at www.abelski.org.
The factory design pattern enables the creation of new objects without having the need to specify the classes that should be instantiated. The following video clip explains this pattern and overviews a sample for its implementation in PHP. The source code is available for free download in my PHP Design Patterns course at www.abelski.org.
The decorator design pattern allows us to add behavior to an existing object in a dynamic way. The following video clip explains it using a code sample in PHP. You can find the source code available for free download in my ‘PHP Design Patterns’ course, which is available for free personal usage at www.abelski.org.
The adapter design pattern allows us to cope with differences between the required interface and the one that was implemented. The following video clip explains it using a code sample in PHP. You can find the source code available for free download in my ‘PHP Design Patterns’ course, which is available for free personal usage [...]
The facade design pattern helps us coping with complexity due to a big number of classes and methods. Implementing facade is about defining a new class through which we shall work with all other classes and methods. The following video clip explains this pattern using a simple code sample. You can find the source code [...]
The abstract factory design pattern allows us to work with multiple factories that each one of them is been used to create another family of objects. The following video overviews its implementation in PHP. You can find the source code available for free download in my ‘PHP Design Patterns’ course, which is available for free [...]
Thanks for joining me in my very first webinar with Zend. You can now download the slides and the code samples. Please feel free to post comments. I hope next time to overcome the echo problem;)
Similarly to software programming languages as Java and C#, PHP also allows us to write code that finds information about objects and classes. Whether the class was already known during the development phase or was created afterwards, using reflection we can get detailed information about the class and even invoke its methods or access its [...]
