使用Phalcon改进OpenEdge数据库

Question

In one of my applications, I need to connect to a Progress OpenEdge database from Phalcon framework. I was looking for ODBC connection or ORM wrapper to the database.

Is there any plug-in/adapter available for this task?

Answer 1

OpenEdge supports ODBC. The Datadirect drivers are free.

Answer 2

I have not found one so I made my own model class and query the databsase with odbc_connect(). But you could use it in-line if you don't want to go to the trouble.

To connect:

putenv("ODBCINI=/path_to/odbc.ini");
$this->conn = odbc_connect("DataBaseName","User","Password");
$this->table = "TABLE_NAME";

And query:

$rows = odbc_exec($self->conn,$sql);
while ($row = odbc_fetch_object($rows)){
    // do some stuff
}
