Hello,

This is the welcome screen of the PHK webinfo mode. This page is displayed by the package file running in a special 'display' mode, called webinfo mode. This is an integral part of every PHK package file and probably one of the coolest feature of the PHK software. For more information about the webinfo mode and the way to switch it on/off, please consult the PHK documentation.

Using the tabs on the top of the page, you can display the package's documentation, license, the content of each file contained herein, the Autoload map... Feel free to navigate in these screens, you cannot modify or break anything from these pages.

What does this package contain ?

This package contains the core library part of the Zend Framework Version 1.0.1.

Please keep in mind that :

• although fully functional, this package is a demo package and must be considered more as a proof of concept, than as a production-grade library
• this package is not validated nor supported by the Zend Framework Development team.
• some of the unit tests fail because they were not made compatible with the PHK architecture.

How to use it

1. Ensure you have :

• PHP version 5.1.0 or more
• the zlib and iconv extensions loaded or available via dl().

2. Download the 'Zend Framework Core library' package

3. Save the file in your include path.

4. The only thing you need to change in your source files is that you won't include/require any of the framework files any more: they are automagically loaded when you use the corresponding Zend classes or interfaces. Everywhere you have something like 'require_once 'Zend/.../.../<something>.php', just remove or comment out these directives. If you use the Loader class, you don't have to change anything as this class is modified to be compatible with Automap.

5. Instead of the previous include directives, you will just have to include or require the package file once. Don't worry, it has a '.phk' extension but it can be included as any other PHP source file. As soon as the package file has been included, you can use every class of the Framework without having to explicitely include or load anything else. Of course, the package needs to be included only once per PHP invocation, generally in the main script.

6. That's all. Now, enjoy the powerful features of the Zend Framework
