Our University is starting to try and push Zend Framework... but it seems like it might not be the right choice. I'm a developer and I've spent a good hour + trying to setup Zend Framework and have yet to even get Hello World.
First off, you have to modify the php.ini include_path to get it to work.
Secondly you have to compile the project from the command line.. yet when I tried it, the RecursiveFilterIterator.php file was missing..... how could this be?
/zf.sh create project quickstart
Warning: require_once(Zend/Tool/Framework/Loader/IncludePathLoader/RecursiveFilterIterator.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /Users/scottamort/Projects/zf-1.9/library/Zend/Tool/Framework/Loader/IncludePathLoader.php on line 31
Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required 'Zend/Tool/Framework/Loader/IncludePathLoader/RecursiveFilterIterator.php' (include_path='/Users/scottamort/Projects/zf-1.9/library:.:') in /Users/scottamort/Projects/zf-1.9/library/Zend/Tool/Framework/Loader/IncludePathLoader.php on line 31
U52:bin scottamort$ ls ../library/Zend/Tool/Framework/Loader/IncludePathLoader/RecursiveFilterIterator.php
ls: ../library/Zend/Tool/Framework/Loader/IncludePathLoader/RecursiveFilterIterator.php: No such file or directory
U52:bin scottamort$ pwd
/Users/scottamort/Projects/zf-1.9/bin
U52:bin scottamort$ cd ..
U52:zf-1.9 scottamort$ cd library/
U52:library scottamort$ ls Zend/Tool/Framework/Loader/IncludePathLoader/RecursiveFilterIterator.php
ls: Zend/Tool/Framework/Loader/IncludePathLoader/RecursiveFilterIterator.php: No such file or directory
I browsed the directory and found the file was actually called: RecursiveFilterIterator.php000064 or something with a crazy extension like that... I renamed it to .php and then the create project command worked...
Having just downloaded a framework for major production work and finding I can't even create a project because somebody over at Zend forgot to put in the right extension on the file...
Yikes.
CI took me no more than 5 minutes to get and running a Hello World app.. I sure can't say the same for ZF. I'm looking forward to spending lots of time with CI and this community.
