Re: [fw-general] Living with bugs in ZF?

[Eric Coleman]

Not sure what the official answer is, but I would think it would be
along the lines of:

1) Write a patch to fix the broken code
2) Write a patch for the relevant test, adding a test case if there
isn't one.. (Or maybe a test case referencing the ticket number?)
3) Attach to the issue

Maybe after that sending the list a message would be good to draw
attention to it.

Re: [fw-general] problems with zf.sh

[Eric Coleman]

Sounds like your link link to 'zf' is pointing to the zf.php script.
Make sure it's pointing to zf.sh and you should be fine.

Re: [fw-general] size limit raised on javascriptCaptureStart()

[Eric Coleman]

Could it be those 2 configurable limits causing the problems?  We had
some problems here a while back with hitting the backtrack limit which
was causing weird behaviour, perhaps your running into the same
issues.

 Hi, I discovered an issue with the
 javascriptCaptureStart/javascriptCaptureEnd
 function pair. When the captured text exceeds a certain limit (about
 50kB in my
 case), the function returns only a semi-colon. I have the following code
 in a
 view script:

 dojo()->javascriptCaptureStart(); ?>
 var data = data; ?>;
 ...
 dojo()->javascriptCaptureEnd(); ?>

 And, as the number of rows in my database table is growing, $this->data
 is
 getting bigger and bigger. Finally, over ~50KB, the PHP tag returns a
 semi-colon and nothing else (not even the "var data =" preceeding that
 tag).
 I was able to trace this issue back to the function addJavascript($js)
 in
 Zend_Dojo_View_Helper_Dojo_Container and more precisely to the
 preg_replace
 function:

         $js = preg_replace('/^\s*(.*?)\s*$/s', '$1', $js);

 I replaced it by:

         $js = trim($js);

 and everything was fine. Therefore, I have two questions:
 - is there a know limitation on preg_replace()
 - why did you use a preg_replace function to trim the string ?

Re: [fw-general] Invalid controller specified (favicon.ico)?

It's because all modern browsers look for /favicon.ico on your site...

To stop the message, put a favicon.ico file into your /public

Re: [fw-general] How to check the SQL string created by Zend_Db_Select?

Re: [fw-general] Alternate layouts by module

[Eric Coleman]

I'm not sure if this is right or wrong, but basically, I create a  
layout instance in my bootstrap and set it to disabled..


Then, each modules has it's own abstract controller, and I use the  
init() method of there to specify the layout for the module.  Is this  
not something I should be doing, and should instead be leaving to a  
plugin like you did below?  I used to use that method but found the  
init() method above better (can't remember why though)...

Then in your bootstrap you do $front->registerPlugin(new

Re: [fw-general] Bug: Zend_Http_Client_Adapter_Socket not freeing memory

[Eric Coleman]

Couldn't a specific stream registry, and possibly some slight  
refactoring make it easier to implement a way to make multiple  
requests in parallel [1] [2]?  I worked on changing Zend_Http_Client  
to support something like this on several occasions, but each one had  
a set of issues and was ugly.

Hi Guys,

This is just a quick email for those using the Rest Client / their  
own Http

client and are seeing memory leaks in long running processes.

On line 115 of Zend/Http/Client/Adapter/Socket.php:

// Now, if we are not connected, connect
  if (! is_resource($this->socket) || ! $this- 
>config['keepalive']) {

  $context = stream_context_create();
  if ($secure) {

For each request a stream_context_create call is made. This returns a
resource which is not released until the process finishes as is  
detailed in

this bug report here: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=40257

This means for long running processes  - Every time you make a new  
request a
resource is returned, and not released when the socket is closed.  
Over time

your memory leaks and "Bad Things" start happening.

We came up with a PoC fix by storing this context resource in the
Zend_Registry as follows:

if (Zend_Registry::isRegistered('zf_rest_context'))
{
  $context = Zend_Registry::get('zf_rest_context');
}
else
{
  $context = stream_context_create();
  Zend_Registry::set('zf_rest_context', $context);
}

Not the cleanest / best solution, but we were simply trying to plug  
the

leak. :-)

Use of a common object (Singleton perhaps?) could perhaps fix this  
bug.


Thanks for your time, any comments appreciated.

Quintin

Another backend adapter to consider is the Zend Platform Job Queue.

?

Based on the structure of your XML, you're not pulling from the

Hi Matthew,

I have tried your suggestion but still no luck. Here's the part  
that uses

$this->config.

   public function getDb()
   {
   if (null === $this->_services['db']) {
   $config = $this->config->database;
   //$this->_services['db'] = Zend_Db::factory($config->type,
$config);
   $this->_services['db'] =
Zend_Db::factory($config->database->type, $config->database);
   }

   return $this->_services['db'];
   }

As you can see I have already assigned $this->config->database to  
$config.
Though I have tried what you have suggest again it's throwing me  
the same

error.

Hi Wil

I'm not sure if this has been requested before, but would it be
possible to make it slightly clearer on the documentation pages that
the manual refers to the current trunk release of the framework?

If not that then perhaps hold back updates on the website until a
minor/major version has been released. I've seen a few cases where
people are confused as the new documentation refers to functionality
or changes that haven't yet been released to a stable version.

Or perhaps a-la MySQL's site there could be a browseable-by-version
page on the site? I'm not sure how automated the current process  
is so

hope I'm not asking for a biggy here :)

So, not being one to leave important issues hanging, I’ll let all of  
you in on our thinking WRT PEAR here at Zend. While PEAR is a great  
packaging and distribution tool, many of our users really appreciate  
the simple tarball installation we currently offer; this is  
something we get a lot of positive feedback on. Suffice it to say,  
whatever we do vis a vis PEAR is unlikely to entirely replace the  
current method of distribution.


At this point, we don’t see enough value in establishing a PEAR  
channel and packaging ZF for PEAR to commit Zend resources to do  
this for every release (remember we’re trying to release  
functionality early and often, so release overhead must be kept to a  
minimum). That said, there are no terms in the licensing of ZF that  
prevent another party from packaging ZF for PEAR as they see fit and  
creating a PEAR channel. We could even consider hosting this if  
someone makes the significant commitment to keep it current and we  
can agree on the packaging. That would be a discussion for *after*  
someone has shown that they are dedicated to this project (probably  
by establishing an existing PEAR package(s) for a few releases) and  
has put together a proposal for us to consider.


In any case, there are- and almost surely will always be- those  
users who won’t want to use PEAR, and we will continue to make the  
installation process simple for them. At this point it seems that  
the best option is a tarball with possibly some CLI support for  
downloading some optional code/data. We do appreciate the  
distribution/versioning/dependency management issues in general  
packaging systems, and we certainly wouldn’t take on something this  
ambitious at this point. We’ll only add support for minimal  
distribution capabilities to the CLI if we can simplify requirements  
for a ZF-specific setup in a way that doesn’t have nasty side  
effects or gets us in to dependency hell.




Hope that sheds some light on the issue from our side.

No time for a big rant today,

3. How would you deploy security fixes to existing version releases.

To remark on some of the PEAR FUD.

PEAR doesn't remove the ability to download, decompress, copy and

manually manage the source code - essentially it just takes a  
default action
of downloading, decompressing, and copying into the /php/pear  
directory
which should already be present on the PHP include_path in php.ini  
which
alleviates one more include_path search for those getting a bit  
worried
about having >2. The proposed download archives for Core/Extras/etc.  
can

merrily continue their existence. They wouldn't even share the same
subdomain...

Does it preclude path versioning? I can script an entire PEAR system  
into
existence using Phing based on any array of preferred version  
numbers -
especially since PEAR does allow you to force installation of one  
specific
version irrespective of it's status or age. Last I checked the basic  
PEAR
installed in under 5 minutes. There is also version compatibility  
control
built into PEAR since you can set a preferred-version on all  
dependencies
package by package. This means control over specific preferred  
versions for

any remote system is a doddle. The only manual intervention would be
changing the include_path for the application...

Finally, the ZF is a componentised framework - not a fragile stack  
of cards
that will fall apart in PEAR - everyone did quite a good job of  
ensuring
classes/components are decoupled. I would agree that at a minimum  
there
would have to be a Core package of say the MVC components to form  
the basic

installation base for immediate use - everything else could be made a
self-contained package available across PEAR, with aggregated  
commands to
install specific "bundles" of packages (perhaps reflecting the  
proposed

download split). Then one could:

pear channel-discover pear.framework.zend.com
pear install zend/Zend_Core

Re: [fw-general] Zend Locale - getCountryTranslation()

[Eric Coleman]

Thomas,

Not to be mean or anything, but I really think that "holografix" is on  
to something.  There's a -ton- of useful information available within  
Zend_Locale_Data, it's just that it appears not clear enough or  
something in the documentation.  I used the class a few times before I  
realized how much data really is contained within the beast.

Hi
Thank you very much the help.
I agree with you Thomas. There is no need of an explicit example  
for a

simple function that returns a string but in the current docs we read
getCountryTranslation($what, $locale = null); (what is $what?) and
believe that I wouldn't ask for help if I read
getCountryTranslation($country_iso_code, $locale = null);. Just a
simple change in the docs.
Thank you again.

Best regards

2008/1/21, Thomas Weidner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
If you wait some days for the release you will get the new  
additional

documentation to this and related functions.

Generally as can be seen by the method name you will get a country
translation which means give a Country in ISO and get the  
translated string

for this country returned.

$loc = new Zend_Locale();
print $loc->getCountryTranslation('DE', 'en_US');

Generally I don't think that an explicit example is needed for a  
simple

string returning function...

Re: [fw-general] When Zend_Session_SaveHandler_DbTable will be ready for core?

I've been meaning to post to the issue tracker, but there's a flaw I  
believe in the class.


It should be slightly refactored to allow customization of the select  
object.


Use case for this would be:

I want to only check against users with "isActive = 1" in the  
database.  I would subclass this, override a method (perferrably a new  
one like getPreparedSelect() or something) to allow for this.


Currently, you'd have to over ride authenticate(), call it from it's  
parent class, check the response, then check the result objects  
"isActive" value.

Any Placeholder data appears to get lost when using a combination of

I have something along the lines of:

If I use any of the head() helpers inside of _bar.phtml, they won't

Re: [fw-general] creating webservices/mobile framework with current site

[Eric Coleman]

What you could do, is just use rewriting to route all of them to the  
same module / controller / action.


Then, in the action itself, just show the appropriate view.  You could  
name your scripts like:


users/books.phtml
users/books.api.phtml
users/books.mobile.phtml

and use a plugin to determine the appropriate postfix to use for the  
templates based on the request.

something i came up with for this example):
http://mysite.com/user/books?userId=1

This goes to the UserController::booksAction function.  The page  
that gets

returned is the user's information along with all the books they have
entered.

Now I plan to have a REST webservice with somewhat the same  
information.  My

url I would like is: http://api.mysite.com/user/books?userId=1

I would like something similar for mobile:
http://mobile.mysite.com/user/books?userId=1

How would you recommend I setup the directory structure and
controller/actions to accomplish this?  Obviously, with the current  
setup I
have, all above urls will go to UserController::booksAction, but I  
probably
want 3 different ones, since each will be returning different data  
(at the
very least different formats, but probably slightly different data  
too).  I
obviously want all three sites to use the same models I have written  
for a

User and for a Book.

Here are some options I came up with, but I am wondering if there is
something better:

1) I was thinking I could have three different bootstrap files, one  
for each

site.  And then place all my models (which currently live in
.../application/default/models) to some general location that for  
all three

sites to use.

2) I could change my urls to now use modules instead, so they would  
look

like:
http://mysite.com/default/user/books?userId=1
http://mysite.com/api/user/books?userId=1
http://mysite.com/mobile/user/books?userId=1

Then create the directory structure as:
.../application/default/controllers
.../application/api/controllers
.../application/mobile/controllers
and place my models somewhere for all to see: .../models/User.php

3) Inside the UserController::booksAction function determine which  
site I am
on (website, api, or mobile) and then send to the appropriate page  
to view.


4) other?  how are other people doing this?

Hey guys, sorry I didn't get a chance to reply to this thread until

While I might not be an expert on performance tuning in PHP, I believe
there are a few best practices that apply to all languages and
frameworks out there. Foremost among these is never increase code
complexity before having reasonable benchmarks to give you a decent
'before' and 'after' picture of the optimization. I realize that PHP  
is
somewhat unique in the benefit it can realize from an opcode cache,  
so I

would expect these figures for both opcode-cached and -uncached
installations. I also realize the extent of the complexity that  
might be

introduced- in fact, we might be able to simplify the lazy-loading of
exception classes further by introducing a factory method- possibly in
the Zend_Loader class- which doesn't make for a whole hell of a lot of
complexity. That said, it does add SOME complexity to the framework,
since we either have to include the exception class in more places  
than
we had to previously or we would have to prescribe a different  
method of

exception class loading than the most basic suggested usage at the
language level, and is therefore subject to the rule of thumb I  
mention

above.
Fortunately, we plan to do a performance audit of framework in the 1.5
timeframe that will create exactly these benchmarks to test against
going forward. ;D While I imagine that these will support a strong
argument for lazy loading of exceptions, I suggest we wait until we've
had a chance to run these benchmarks to decide which optimizations of
the many possibilities that we agree are worth the extra complexity.
Ultimately, this is another argument against 'premature optimization',
but I'm being slightly more specific about the definition of  
'premature'

here- anything before our 1.5 performance tests are executed and the
results compiled. :)

Thanks.

As a user and developer, I'm going to have to agree with Shahar here.
Majority of your users are going to be on shared servers where they  
do

not have control of what caching, if any, is installed. A framework
that is meant to be used by users (think RoR) needs to be as

for Zend_Db_Schema_Manager? -
http://framework.zend.com/wiki/display/ZFPROP/Zend_Db_Schema_Manager+-+R
ob+Allen





Hi Sander, I've put some thought in to db migrations because it was a
part of RoR that I both really liked and found somewhat over- 
simplified.
On the one hand, I thought the RoR implementation was an elegant way  
to
version application schemas and it lent a helpful tool to a pretty  
vital
best practice. On the other, I felt that the ruby-based DDL  
abstraction

was rather toy-like and one would quickly revert to 'execute' and
standard SQL DDL/DML in real environments. Admittedly, I haven't  
tested

the limits of db:migrations, but the differences in ddl among- and in
the objects that can be created in- different DB's combined with the
relatively minor savings in complexity and database 'independence'  
left

me less impressed than with other parts of RoR. As always, I'd love to
hear about other opinions and  experiences with different frameworks.
For ZF, my current preference would be for raw sql-script-based
migrations with the possibility of supporting or providing  
extensibility

for future support of files and possibly other non-code application
artifacts. Basically it would aim to be a simple versioning/ 
environment
setup tool that is much easier to use- but no less powerful than-  
shell
scripts. Questions that I haven't fully thought through include:  
Should

we support only one usage pattern over others- like sequential
versioning over schema management simplification/separation? Would  
it be

feasible to generate raw sql-scripts if we decide we'd like to do that
in the future, or would we rather be generating a sort of  
'intermediate

language' much like RoR migrations? Are there any useful integration
points with CVS/SVN? And the list goes on and on. . .
Right now I'm putting together a proposal for a CLI tool that
(hopefully) reflects some of the best ideas out there but doesn't  
skimp

on flexibility. I would love to see someone working off the draft
proposal to provide migrations. ;)

Anyone any ideas or suggestions?

set to true by default - but if set to false, will allow setting
non-strict headers and possibly override some other RFC-compliance
tests.

2. Add an optional $strict parameter to the setHeaders() method.

3. Ignore non-compliance requests and tell people to subclass
Zend_Http_Client ;)

I tend to favor #1 because it allows a general non-strict mode for the
entire client (and not just for setHeaders()).

Opinions or thoughts are welcome.

A number of developers -- including Eric, whom you quote below, and
myself -- have voiced frustration over how the FlashMessenger currently
works in regards to namespaces. I've created a JIRA issue requesting
that each of the various *Messages() methods take an optional $namespace
parameter; this would simplify using the FlashMessenger in most cases
as there would be no setup required to use alternate namespaces (other
than the default namespace).

The issue can be found at:

http://framework.zend.com/issues/browse/ZF-1705

This will only deal with namespace usage, not with clearing a namespace
after retrieval; that will be addressed separately.

[fw-general] No way to get invalid data from Zend_Filter_Input

[Eric Coleman]

While playing with a method to keep form data in sync when a  
validation/filtering error occurs, I realized that there is no method  
to get the invalid data back...


So, basically, if you submit something that fails validation, it gets  
nuked unless you store your own copy of $_POST.  This hardly seems  
like the correct way to do things.


Bill, or someone, can we get a method added to Zend_Filter_Input to  
solve this?

How are you handling downgrades (e.g. knowing how to remove the

database

layout, need to perform additional tasks (hint: manually executed

tools to help streamline this process. A utility to upgrade/downgrade
database schemas would be particularly useful. I'm not so sure about
scripts to help with subversion deployment - this area might be too
specific to each individual setup? I have a php script that traverses
the current directory plus matching subdirectories applying raw SQL
upgrade scripts to the chosen database. The syntax is:

dbupgrade.php [options] database_name [server_type]

[options] are things like -u user_name and -p password for the  
database
connection. The server_type allows extra scripts to be run on  
particular

types of server (e.g. 'production', 'staging').

It takes a snapshot of the database first (using mysqldump - so it is
MySQL specific currently) allowing the user to run a 'rollback'  
script

if something goes horribly wrong. It uses Zend_Db to connect to the
database server and applies the SQL commands using the exec()  
method of

the PDO object. The only requirement is that the database must have a
_version table with only one field (version) that contains the  
current
version number of the database. Upgrade scripts are named  
upgradeXXX.sql

where XXX is the version number. Only upgrade scripts with a value of
XXX greater than the current version are applied. It would be easy to
implement downgrade scripts as well. Upgrade scripts are stored in  
a sql

directory like this:

sql/
   database1/
  upgrade1.sql
  upgrade2.sql
  production/
  upgrade3.sql
  staging/
  database2/
upgrade1.sql

The dbupgrade script looks for subdirectories of sql that match the
database_name. It applies all upgrade scripts named >  
_version.version.

It will also apply any upgrade scripts found in a subdirectory that
matches server_type. I've found this arrangement gives me enough
flexibility for my server setup. I also make use of Zend_Config to  
look

for default database connection settings. However, this requires some
kind of naming convention to be generally useful.

It would be nice maybe if the _version table stored the version  
history

(by introducing a timestamp field).

I like the idea.  Is there some way to create the proposal using
Zend_Debug?  I've never used Zend Platform, but if there's similar

The FirePHP PEAR class isn't complicated and could be built on Zend

Grab the current SVN (or 0.9.0 when it's released) and use initView()
and/or render() in the action controllers. The default  
implementation of

initView() assumes the following directory structure

(application|module)/
controllers/
views/
scripts/
/
.phtml
(helpers)/
(filters)/

This means you can then assume that views are in ../views/scripts, in
relation to your controller.

You can simply call this in your action, then:

$view = $this->initView();

Or, if you don't need to assign any variables, call something like  
this:


$this->render();

and it will render /.phtml.

Subject: Re: [fw-general] ActiveRecord patch

Bill,

First off, thank you for such a detailed comparison, this is great!!

I'll go through your list and say what I would like to bring to
Zend_Db_ActiveRecord,
and maybe we can move some of your work over and therefore have the
name people expect
and provide a good implementation :)


The implementation in the branch:
- The find() method always returns a Rowset object (see ZF-21).

Good

because it's easy to call exists() after find().


I agree on the Row Vs Rowset, I never *really* liked it :)


- Supports multi-column primary keys.


Honestly, I've never used this, so I missed this from AR, would love
to see it moved in


- No usage of inflectors.


We could allow both?


- No object vars for searching.


I could easily add a cleanup method, or perhaps you could pass a Row
with the
vars to find() ? I think both would be good :)


- Supports any number of custom Row and Rowset classes per Table
class.


Great, I'd like to see this, but automated use of ARClass_Row(Set)
would be
great too


- Supports queries against related tables, e.g. parent table,
dependent
table, many-to-many table.  All queries support multi-column keys.


Obvously needs adding


- Table class supports custom _insert(), _update(), _delete()
filtering.


I'm not sure what this would be used for, but lets bring it over :)


- Table relationship query methods can be either magic or non-magic
(non-magic is useful for tool support).


This would be good too



Your patch has a lot of good ideas, but there are some places where
you
and I disagree:
- I don't think the find() method should return two different class
types depending on the arguments.


Agreed


- I don't care for inflectors, or any manipulation of SQL

identifiers.


The use is minimal, lets remove it :)


- I prefer declaration of metadata, instead of imposing schema
conventions on developers.  There are plenty of frameworks that

impose

conventions, which is great for new projects where the developer
has the
freedom to design the database schema.  But Zend_Db could gain a

very

valuable differentiator if it works with an existing database

schema.


I already have plans for this, and I agree, it should be possible to
*easily*
wrap AR around an existing table that doesn't conform to our "norm",

and

as I mentioned elsewhere, the way I would like to do this, is
aliasing, that
allows your tables to have a consistent AR API regardless of the

actual

schema beneath.

This is very important to me, actually, that the AR whilst it has a
lot of
voodoo, should be easily overridden internally, and still provide
the same API when used.

Re: [fw-general] how to add auth?

[Eric Coleman]

Something I've wanted to do, and I spent a few hours trying to, (and  
was unsuccessful btw) is to control access via a static variable in  
the controller itself.


having

static $requiresAuth = array('action1', 'action2', 'action3');

or if you want all:

static $requiresAuth = array('*');

Then, when the plugin checks, it would check the action, compare it  
to the controllers requiresAuth variable, and decide if we need to  
require login.  Maybe I missed this in the plugin code some how, but  
if this is possible, it would be brilliant.

Hi Tony,

One thing I can add - seems that this way user can see any page only
if he is logged in.
What if there would be any informative pages or registration, that not
registered and logged in users would like to see? These screens
probably can be easily added next to if($resource == 'index/timedout')

To solve this, I'm using Acl and "guest" Acl object is created, if
there is no logged in user. If this user tries to see something that
is not allowed to guest, he gets login screen.

Ps. thanks for the good idea about keeping parameters, while logging
in and then redirecting where needed.

Bes wishes,

be happy to - and appreciate any feedback because this may not
necessarily be the optimal way to do this. One obvious improvement is
to use Zend_Auth as you mentioned earlier. My plugin is pretty basic:

 }

}

What's nice about this is that you can change the request before it
has been dispatched. I also save the original request parameter array
as a parameter in the diverted request ('target_params'). This allows
me to store these in my login form so that the original user request
can be carried out after authentication. So the user requests some
page - has to login - but is then shown the page they wanted and
happy because they didn't get shunted to some home page hell with a
million links ;-) In my index/login action I have:

 public function loginAction()
 {
 if (isset($_POST['email'])) {
 // Login attempt
 $filterPost = new Zend_Filter_Input($_POST, false);
 $this->_view->target_params = $filterPost->testRegex
('target_params', '#^[a-z0-9\{\}:;"]*$#i');
 if (** your test for successful login here **) {
 // Successful login
 $params = unserialize($this->_view->target_params);
 $controller = $params['controller'];
 $action = $params['action'];
 if ($action == 'login') {
 // Default action to avoid endless loop
 $action = 'index';
 }
 unset($params['controller']);
 unset($params['action']);
 $this->_forward($controller, $action, $params);
 return;
 }
 }
 else {
 // Sent here by AuthPlugin
 $this->_view->target_params = serialize($this->_getParam
('target_params'));
 }
 // Template for action specific view
 $this->getResponse()
  ->setBody($this->_view->render('login.php'));
 }

and my login page view has a form like this:

Log in here
action='login'>

 formHidden('target_params', $this-
 >target_params); ?>
 
 
 Email address:
 formText('email', '', array('size'
=> 30)); ?>
 
 Password:
 formPassword('password', '', array
('size' => 20)); ?>
 
 
 
 
 
 


So when the form has been submitted I can get hold of the user's
original request by unserializing $_POST['target_params']. I'd be
interested in knowing if anyone can see any security problems with
this. Could an evil array be sent to login action that would cause
some unexpected behaviour?

[fw-general] multiple subscriptions to a list...

[Eric Coleman]

Ok,

So, I have a few small issues, there's a few lists that I appear to  
be subscribed to multiple times, specifically fw-auth (I think fw-mvc  
as well, there's a few other ones though I can't seem to figure out  
which ones atm)


How do I get that to friggin stop, it's starting to annoy me to death.

Is anyone working on a Zend_Db session handler?  If not, is it  
alright to go ahead and make this?

Re: [fw-general] Build Zend Framework, parse errors.

[Eric Coleman]

Why are you encoding Zend Framework at all?  It's an open source  
project, not like you need to conceal any intellectual property...

Nico,

My point is incompatibility between Zend products.

If you build serious, enterprise-level project, you probably will use
Zend Guard. I am not being elitist, but it seems like Zend framework
is not used for projects that are encoded with Zend Guard? Because
nobody raised the issue before.

There is a syntax checker (lint) built into php with "php -l". -f
does also execute the file.

find . -name "*.php" -exec php -l {} \; | grep -v "^No syntax errors

With the above line in trunk/ I only got:
   Strict standards: Assigning the return value of new by reference
is deprecated in ./incubator/library/Zend/Db/Adapter/Mysqli.php on
line 273

What other errors do you get?

PS: I used 5.2.0 for the syntax check.
