@homeless – a bit of respect would go down nicely here – dont forget you are reading some else’s blog and of course their subjective opinon. I dont know why people think they a have a right to force people to their opinion?

It is funny comming from a C | C++ background (1994) because all the same arguments were used back then!

I remember people laughing that we used VCL (Borland C++ Builder) over MFC (Visual Studio) – what a happend? MS head hunted the original designer of VCL (delphi) and he designed .NET!

You dont hear that many people banging on about MFC anymore! If you do, just tell them composition | aggregation beats (purely) inheritance.

Dustin – if you read my last comment from the Symphony posting..

Homeless,
If you start taking ratio’s into consideration, flies vs humans, then your little hissy fit does not make sense any more, does it?

I have settled on CakePHP coming from CodeIgniter, I haven’t tried anything else, and I don’t think I will.

PLEASE PLEASE comment on Smarty…

I have had some developers build my site using this and I don’t know whether I wasted a tonne of money… I am scared and don’t know whether I should have done more research on Cake, Symfony………

DAZED AND CONFUSED!

>CodeIgniter has about 545,000 results.
>CakePHP has about 3,980,000 results.

Uhmm, do you like stats ?

Hey Dustin. Thanks for the tips, I’ve just started, well I have yet to get that far into things, with cakePHP, truth be told i find it quite a mind twister to get my headaroung, might be due to me being new to PHP (more of a .net guy originaly) but i’d guess it is due to it being so diffrent from anything else i’ve worked with previously.

I would, if you don’t mind, love a few real tutorials so to speak, ergo step by step instructions, as i find that cakephp’s offical documentation is kind of messy and insufficent on HOW to get started and what goes where.

Regards, Johan Hultin

I have tried cake before but I did not like the way code was generated when scaffolding. I think Symfony approach is neater. Needless to say I have been now using Symfony for quite some long and I am very happy with it.
Now I am planning to migrate to version 1.2 which uses Doctrine as a ORM (much more powerful than Propel, IMHO) and explodes most of the latest features of PHP in regards with OOP.
Anyway, I think it is hard to determine which one is the best since both are great and are changing and new features are being added constantly, so I say, good for you if cake fulfills your expectations and good for me because, I have found a greay MVC PHP framework. Either ways, MVC concept rocks! Have fun guys!

@ aaryan
zend framework doesn’t really have its own IDE. Zend studio is the IDE, and zend framework is just another product of zend.

Also, the “CleanUpFields” function mentioned earliler was removed from cakePHP 1.2 (I believe)

I would suggest going through the IBM CakePHP tutorial to start with. It has about 5 or 6 parts to it, with 7 pages each. It covers very useful information.

EVERYONE

This post is very old at this point. CakePHP has changed immensely since I wrote this article and things have gotten much much better. I would recommend you learn version 1.2 (it is in RC2) and you’ll get to learn the best php framework by far.

Thanks,

Dustin Weber

Hello,

I am using easyphp (apache 1.3, php 4.3.1), I tried installing cakephp many time but could not.
There are many articles but none provides detailed instructions on how to install cakephp and how to test/check that it has been installed properly.
Second problem, developers usually work on more than 1 applications at a time, how to setup cakephp once and use it with all applications?

Thanks.
