Class that provides an abstraction layer above the PHP PostgreSQL API. This centralizes all the database connection info such as host, port, username and password. Same class can be used to connect to multiple databases, local and remote, on different ports.
In addition to "normal" stuff that you'd expect from a db abstraction layer, it also supports transactions and comprehensive error checking/management.

// Last Updated: August 14, 2001
//
// Description:
// Abstracts both the php function calls and the server information to POSTGRES
// databases. Utilizes class variables to maintain connection information such
// as number of rows, result id of last operation, etc.
//
// Sample Usage:
// include("include/dblib.php");
// $db = new phpDB();
// $db->connect("foobar");
// $db->exec("SELECT * from TREVIN");
// while ($db->nextRow()) {
// $rs = $db->fobject();
// echo "$rs->description : $rs->color : $rs->price <br>\n";
// }
//
// Modification History:
// Modification History:
// - v1.04b, 08/11/2001, Trevin Chow, t1@mail.com
//
// Fixed following bugs:
// * added in call to moveFirst() in exec() to ensure that on subsequent calls to exec
// we are moving row pointer to beginning again. Previously, row pointer wasn't being
// updated.
//
// - v1.04a, 08/09/2001, Trevin Chow, t1@mail.com
//
// Fixed following bugs introduced in v1.03:
// * connect() function had problem with setting password. Instead of using $this->password, was using $this->userName again for some reason.
//
// - v1.04, 07/29/2001, Trevin Chow, t1@mail.com
//
// Added Following function(s):
// * currRow() - return current row
//
// - v1.03, 05/18/2001, Lee Pang, wleepang@hotmail.com
//
// Added the following functions:
// * moveNext() - same as nextRow(), better syntax for VB/ASP converts like myself.
// * movePrevious() - like nextRow(), just in the opposite direction.
// * recordCount() - same as numRows(), better syntax for VB/ASP converts
// * columnCount() - same as numFields, better syntax
// * querySafe() - removes "\r" and "\n" and replaces "\'" with "'" in input query
// * sqlSafe() - replaces "\'" with "\'\'"
//
// Added more comprehensive error handling:
// * internal error code $errorCode
// * in connect()
// * in errorMsg()
//
// Modified following functions:
// * connect() - generates connection string based on available data
//
// Fixed the following bugs:
// * Syntax error in numAffected() - if ($this->result = null) ... to if ($this->result == null) ...

Building a software-as-a-service solution requires addressing a few key technical challenges. In this webcast, we'll focus on the role of IBM Tivoli Directory Server and WebSphere Portlet Factory in creating a Software as a Service solution. We will demonstrate how to use Tivoli Directory Server to prevent the user population of one tenant from accessing the virtual portal and portlet components of another tenant. We will also use the dynamic profile capability of WebSphere Portlet Factory to create multiple highly customized applications from one code base.

Join this Rational Talks to You teleconference, to hear how Enterprise Generation Language (EGL) eliminates the need for tedious and error-prone low level coding, so developers can focus on business requirements. EGL extends the Rational software development platform with a simplified programming language that enables developers who have little or no experience with Java, Web technologies or Service Oriented Architecture, to create enterprise-class applications and services quickly and easily. It also allows developers who may have little or no mainframe programming experience to quickly create traditional mainframe components.

The unprecedented scope of a service-oriented architecture (SOA) initiative brings to the forefront a number of management and governance issues that were sidestepped in the past. The key to a successful SOA implementation is managing and governing activities throughout the entire SOA delivery lifecycle by ensuring that services conform to the needs of all of the business’s stakeholders. Learn how service lifecycle management allows the business to ensure that the process by which services are defined, created, tested, deployed, optimized and retired is manageable, repeatable and auditable.
