Frameworks should be about saving time and energy in writing, by giving you something pre-prepared. All too often people substitute in a framework because they don't know how to do it themselves.

Now, I'm in the state where I've used most of the frameworks and don't like many of them. What I invariably find with them is that I spend almost as much time tweaking the framework because it doesn't do exactly what I want, as I would have done doing it from scratch anyway.

Also, I'd thoroughly avoid Zend Framework because it's huge and extremely bloated. A setup where using multiple components together could require 300 files *per pageload* seems thoroughly wrong to me.

offtop:

Guys, tell me a good class for working with nested sets (PDO, PHP5)
Strange that I can not find this in the frameworks



offtop2:

I did a test in which I was interested in the speed
functions and classes for working with databases
$smcFunc involved, PDO, the Zend DB

results surprised:
 :eheh:
1. $smcFunc
2. PDO
3. Zend DB

What do you mean by nested sets? What I think of as nested sets is probably not the same thing you're thinking of.

And how exactly are you getting nested-sets out of an SQL table? Are you trying to read it from the table then build it into a nested hash map or what?

Sounds to me like half the battle is using the wrong tool for the job in the first place...

To do what exactly? Are you jumping through hoops and doing the wrong thing with it?

See, here's the thing you're talking about a very specific, slightly unusual setup and there's any one of a number of things that are likely incorrect in your use case anyway.

Exactly. It's very lightweight and exists primarily to be an anti-injection layer, though in $smcFunc's case it's also pretending to be a DBAL as well (but isn't really)
