Symfony 2 - Generating a Bundle (Windows)

Question

I am new to Symfony. I am running Windows and am using xammp to learn Symfony 2. How would I run the following command? I seem to be getting an error and not sure how to run commands like these successfully. I appreciate any suggestions. Must I use CMD to create a bundle for Symfony2? Is there an easier way to generate a bundle?

$ php app/console generate:bundle --namespace=Blogger/BlogBundle --format=yml

Answer 1

Using the CLI tools is the easiest way to generate a bundle and many other things in symfony2.

Make sure you are in the root of your app to use the php app/console utility. If you 'dir', then you should see something like:-

28/09/2013  18:13    <DIR>          .
28/09/2013  18:13    <DIR>          ..
