Re: Fw: PHP XMF

If you have ever used Zope and know how Zope products are created you might have an idea about what I am using XPC in a CMF for. below is a more detailed description. Products are objects They are represented in URLS as top level directories "parent directories" that are related to a table in the current domain's database (or shared DB). An object or a product is created when a URI is requested. The object is formed based on the URI. Once formed the proper settings are presented to the requestor based on pre-defined product / object settings and the related visitors status in relation to the current domain. add a class -> create the class create objects from the class (properties) create a "object" for "CD Player" class or properties for the "CD Player" class or "product" create multiple "CD Player" objects from one "CD Player" class methods are attributes for a specific object of the specific class. An object is a prototype of the "CD Player" class Inheritance of the object are global properties that can be used throughout or as a "stencil." ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rasmus Lerdorf" <rasmus@php.net> To: "Michael Glazer" <mglazer@4arrow.com> Cc: <php-dev@lists.php.net> Sent: Sunday, July 22, 2001 3:09 AM Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] Fw: PHP XMF > > XPC is a proprietary product that I was hoping to open into the PHP > > developers community. > > Open in what sense?
