Easy Application Configuration With patConfiguration - Link Zone (
Page 11 of 11 )
That's
about it for the moment. In this article, I introduced you to the patConfiguration
class, which is designed primarily to assist you in the reading, writing and manipulation
of configuration data. I showed you how to read and write configuration files
in both XML and PHP format, and how to use patConfiguration's built-in methods
simplify and speed up configuration tool development, and improve performance
by caching frequently-accessed configuration data.
If you'd like to learn more about patConfiguration and its related tools, you
should take a look at the following links:
