BE CAREFUL : THE RANCHBE API REWRITING IS IN PROGRESS.

The API of RanchBE is currently rewriting to be in concordance with the currents practices of the OO language. Your scripts write with the API 0.4.6 will be inconsistent with the futur API.

Example with actual API :

require_once('./conf/galaxia_setup.php'); $document_id = 1; require_once('./class/bookshopsManager.php'); $Manager = new bookshop(); //Construct an object 'bookshop' $Manager->GetDocInfos($document_id); //Get the infos about a document stored in a container of the space bookshop.

Example with the new API :

require_once('./conf/galaxia_setup.php'); $document_id = 1; require_once('./class/common/container.php'); $Manager = container::_factory('bookshop') //create an instance of 'container' in the space 'bookshop' $document=$Manager->GetDoc($document_id); //Get an object 'document' and link it to the current container $Manager (bi-directionnal link). $docinfos=$document->GetProperties(); //Get the properties of the document //OR $docname = $document->GetProperty('document_number'); //Get the number of the document.

Why rewrite API ? : The actual API is very easy to use but the maintenance is difficult. Since RanchBE becomes a big project, the rewriting is necessary.

Thanks to your comprehension.
