• Object relation mapping in eZ Components (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Wed, 19 Nov 2008 23:29:46 +0100

  I wrote an article, that introduces the relation featuresw of our ORM compoenent "PersistentObject" to you, using a practical example application. For me the coolest feature of PersistentObject is, that the component does not require you're ORM enabled classes to inherit from a certain base to allow your objects to be stored in a database (made persistent). PersistentObject simply allows you to configure any of your applications objects to be persistent and you keep a nice an clean OO structure. If you are interessted in learning more, just follow my trip into PersistentObject on ez.no. [Read full post…]

• A GTK2 UI for PHPUnit (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Fri, 09 Jan 2009 12:34:32 +0100

  For my current exam phase at university, I wanted to have some tiny project where I can play around with, without caring too much, just to relax a bit in the evenings. When Kore infected me with some strange PHP-GTK virus ;) and someone mentioned on IRC, that it would be time to have a GTK UI for PHPUnit, I decided to take this one. So I played some hours with the PHP-GTK extension and voila, here we go with a first running version of a GTK driven test runner for PHPUnit. [Read full post…]

• Comments back online (en)

  Mi friend Kristian from eZ Systems noted this morning, that comments on my blog were disabled. That was actually an accedent, because I shutted down comments some days ago to stop a spam wave and forgot to switch them on again. I now re-enabled comments and trackbacks. If you ever want to comment on one of my posts and find comments disableds, don't hesitate to send me a mail about it! [Read full post…]

• That's why I pay so much for a notebook... (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Wed, 19 Nov 2008 23:29:46 +0100

  Yesterday (and today) I had an experience, which showed me once again, why I pay so much for a high quality notebook. During our (currently daily) learning sessions, the keyboard of my 1.5 years old IBM Thinkpad T43p lost it's backspace key. Somewhat annoyed I opened a support call on the IBM website (luckily, IBM has 3 years of guarantee) about it and (while having the chance) I added anothe issue with the notebook I now had for about 2-3 months. This one was, that I had a bunch of weird light-gray dots on my display, which actually looked like tiny liquid splashes. I was not able to kill them with a towel and therefore added the phenomenon to the support call, too. Anyway, I did not expect IBM to react on that issue, because it simply did not look like a guarantee issue to me. [Read full post…]
