phpersistence
object persistence for php



what?
phpersistence is an object oriented persistence layer for php, using transparent object relational mapping.
Even if it's usage is inspired from Java ORM tool hibernate, phpersistence is not a java port.
It uses database abstraction layer PEAR::DB to be DBMS independent.
Note that PHP5 support is currently still limited.
phpersistence works best with PHP4 + mysql.
To know how it works please use our demo application : www.phpersistence.org/demo/demo_application.

why?
Better code faster.
And because there is nearly no such tool available for php4.

how?
For free, even in commercial closed source applications : phpersistence is LGPL
