    In Portuguese:

    Devido a desentendimentos com a empresa organizadora, inúmeros membros de grupos de usuários de PHP do Brasil não apoiam mais o evento anteriormente conhecido por PHP Conference Brasil.

    Em vez disso, essas pessoas se organizaram independentemente e criaram um novo evento para promover o PHP devidamente no Brasil chamado CONAPHP - Congresso Nacional de PHP. Este evento vai decorrer em São Paulo em 18 e 19 de Outubro dentro de um evento maior de software livre CONISLI 2008. São esperados pelo menos 1500 congressistas.

    O CONAPHP vai contar com palestrantes internacionais reputados como Andrei Zmievski (Smarty, PHP-GTK, PHP 6 Unicode) e César Rodas (PHP Programming Innovation Award 2007, Google Summer of Code, WordPress), e Manuel Lemos (PHPClasses) para além dos habituais nomes da cena de PHP Brasileira.

    Já se espera que o CONAPHP será mais um evento de PHP bastante concorrido. Se você estiver interessado em participar como congressista, vá já inscrever-se para aproveitar o preço baixo de inscrição. Os interessados em palestrar também devem já propôr as suas palestras no site do evento antes que termine o prazo.

    Groups: Databases, Text processing
    Description: This class can compose SQL queries from lists from set of simple function calls. It provides a modified version of Active Record pattern to generate SQL queries.
    Really simple and minimal PhARoS provides a minimal set of user routines to let you generate your standard SQL queries using modified version of active record pattern. Also taking away all the boiler level strings from the programmer making code simpler.

    Since PhARoS is not dependent upon any of the databases classes at all, you can yourself choose how to query database either by directly using the functions (like mysql_query) or choose any of the databases abstraction libraries (adodblite or adodb itself).

    As it is based on principle of minimalism and flexibility, that's why unlike any of the active record classes (Propel or Doctrine) it is plug n play and has no tight integration or complex XML configurations. All you will be doing is feeling the complete power to generate the queries with decent readable code. Unlike some libraries it only requires PHP 4+ version and that's it. Although there is not much bloated code; still you will be able to use CRUD like methods to generate queries for you. They key routines are selectQuery, insertQuery, updateQuery, deleteQuery.
