I had a quick look at this, at present, The core class only has a tertiary similarity to DataObjects, and misses alot of the lessons learned from DataObjects (It's adds alot of low use utility methods to the core class, and misses some of the key goals). DBDO is nearing it's alpha release, and would be a better target for API compatibility If anyone wants to attempt a DataObjects2 specifically for PHP5/PDO. Regards Alan

Alan, I Crtx_DB which encompasses Crtx_DB_DataObject is a userland implementation of the ORM pattern similar to Ruby on Rails ActiveRecord using PDO as a backend. Whilst PDO doesn't offer much in the way of ORM, Crtx_DB_DataObject does completely fill that void, and whilst I'm aware you are working on a dbdo extension, I would much rather base my code on the (soon to be with 5.1) more well known (and therefore more likely to be installed by default) PDO which is IMO almost stable quality. - Davey
