In the previous sections, I introduced some general concepts and ideas common to Ruby on Rails and CakePHP, but nothing in particular was said about the structure of the framework itself. Let's now turn to that and discuss it in some detail, particularly as it pertains to Cake.

The first thing to understand about Cake (and Rails as well) is that one of their aims was to avoid editing long and complex configuration files in order to run the environment. The approach in this sense is to use [i]conventions[/i] over [i]configuration[/i]. This may sound terribly restrictive, but in reality it proved to make things much simpler. After all, I said I wanted to use a framework because I needed a solid structure to base my applications on, not that I needed to be able to create and personalize my own structure and system. Cake uses some simple rules in order to run properly, and the easiest way to explain them is through Cake's directory structure, which represents the skeleton of every CakePHP application. -[b][i]/ +/ ---app/ ------config/ ------controllers/

So I told him that as of Service Pack 2, even Internet Explorer blocks popups (and before that, so did my Google Toolbar) but apparently Firefox had this feature long before Microsoft did. Good to know, but not really impressive. What was more interesting was that Firefox lets you type in whatever you want in the Location bar, even if it's not a Web address, and you will still get the most relevant page available: for example, typing "firefox" takes me to [url]http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/[/url]. This is accomplished through Google's "[url=http://www.google.com/help/features.html#lucky]I'm Feeling Lucky[/url]" feature. IE doesn't do this: it gives me a search page for what I typed, or it tries to 'guess' the domain by adding a .com or .net after the word. Firefox still didn't really impress me: some nice tricks, but nothing that would make me want to switch. What started to make the difference was the [b][i]Tabbed Browsing[/i][/b] feature: I knew about it already, because IE started implementing that through the [url=http://toolbar.msn.com/]MSN toolbar[/url], but it's a bit[url=http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/asa/archives/008312.html]buggy[/url], so I didn't even try it. Firefox has had this feature since its very first [url=http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/releases/0.1.html]release[/url], so I guess it they represents a fully-functional, stable, and key feature of the browser. Tabbed browsing introduces a new [i]philosophy[/i] for browsing the web: there is only one browser window, but it can have multiple [i]tabs[/i], each displaying a different page. You can switch from one tab to another by clicking on the title (tab titles appear horizontally under the location bar), "Open Link in New Tab" by right-clicking on a link, and open empty tabs with either CTRL+T or from the [i]File[/i] menu. It takes a while to get used to it, but after a while I couldn't really live without it! I then asked my friend why Firefox doesn't allow me to play music or videos or read pdf files, etc., and he said that I needed to install all the necessary [url=https://pfs.mozilla.org/plugins/]plugins[/url]. This is the most annoying thing about Firefox: you have to "feed" it and "teach" it things - a lot like a baby, really. If the analogy is truly valid, in the end it should be worth it, and I have the feeling that my Firefox will grow up well, if I'm careful. -After learning about plugins, and teaching my little Firefox what to do with movies, songs and other types of files, I learnt that it had another really smart feature: outstanding, built-in [b][i]search capabilities[/i][/b]. +After learning about plugins, and teaching my little Firefox what to do with movies, songs and other types of files, I learnt that it had another really smart feature: outstanding, built-in [i]search capabilities[/i]. I had already noticed the small search bar on the top right, next to the location bar: it's basically a shortcut to Google Search. Cool, but I already had this in IE. One thing I didn't like about IE though, was that if I wanted to use a different search engine, like Yahoo or MSN, I had to install [i]another toolbar[/i], and I ended up with something like three different toolbars under the address bar, so I could hardly see the webpages I was browsing! Firefox apparently knows that people might need to use more than one search engine, so you can select other search engines by clicking on the little icon on the left of the aforementioned search bar. Yahoo, MSN, Wikipedia, and others are available, and [url=http://mycroft.mozdev.org/download.html]others[/url] can be installed easily. If you need a plugin for a search engine, and it doesn't exist yet, you can even make it yourself quite [url=http://mycroft.mozdev.org/generator/]easily[/url].

They can be organized through the [i]Manage Bookmarks[/i] option, and indeed Firefox's [i]Bookmarks Manager[/i]'s interface looks much cleaner and is easier to use than IE's.

Let's examine each dropdown menu and the functions listed in them. -[i][u]File[/u][/i] +[u]File[/u] This menu lists all the functions concerning database connection and disconnection, opening and saving SQL files, and opening new query tabs - the SQL editor panel can have multiple tabs. -[i][u]Edit[/u][/i] +[u]Edit[/u] This menu refers to the SQL editor, not to the query results! It includes functions like execute queries, copy, paste, cut, undo, redo and find/replace, which does not find strings in a record/table/database, but only in the SQL editor.

Maybe - in my opinion - an advanced [i]Find <something> in <somewhere>[/i] wizard or dialogue should be implemented - as the developers seem to be very good at creating those types of things, we'll soon find out. -[i][u]DB[/u][/i] +[u]DB[/u] Maybe I'd have called this "database" for the sake of newbies, but this menu indeed groups all database-related functionalities together. Create/truncate/drop databases, create table and create view (maybe they could have been placed under the [i]table[/i] menu), and other interesting features like creating an HTML schema on the database and even copying a whole database (or just a few tables) to a different host (even remote, if accessible) with a single click!

[b]"Power Tools"[/b] When I wrote [i]nothing much[/i] earlier I actually referred to the Professional Edition, which - as the feature matrix shows[8]- doesn't offer anything more than the free edition: basically you pay $9 to get rid of the nag screens, which are normally not very intrusive... -[i][u]Tunneling[/u][/i] +[u]Tunneling[/u] On the contrary, the Enterprise Edition ($49) has a lot of very interesting advanced tools which are actually worthwhile to have. Perhaps the most essential feature missing in the free version, especially for people using a remote hosting solution, is [i]tunnelling[/i]. You can use SQLyog to connect to a remote server, theoretically; in reality though, in order to do so your hosting provider must allow privileged remote connections to the database (i.e. <user>@% instead of <user>@localhost), which is not permitted 98% of the time for security reasons. So how can you use SQLyog to access your remote database(s)? With tunneling. The concept is simple: even if privileged remote connections are normally not permitted, privileged local connections are. So all you need to do is place a PHP script on your server, somewhere accessible, and specify it as a parameter for HTTP tunneling before establishing the connection; SQLyog will then access the script and the script will basically forward SQLyog's instruction to the database server, just as if the commands were issued locally.

@@ -124,14 +124,14 @@

This is a common, slightly biased, but ultimately reasonable concern, and for $49 you can also get SSH tunneling, provided that your host allows you to connect to the server through a SSH shell. I tried this option and it worked perfectly: with a 2MB/s ADSL connection all went smoothly and fast: the program proved to be a valid alternative to PHPMyAdmin in terms of speed and responsiveness. Do not try this on a 56K connection! It's not worthwhile, and probably not even conceived of by the developers. As I always want to try extreme solutions, I also tried SSH tunneling on dialup and my final conclusion was: [i]stick with PHPMyAdmin[/i]. SQLyog seems to have been developed in order to achieve relatively immediate responses, as a result, when a low speed connection is used to connect to a remote database, the program may hang for a little while before delivering results and executing queries as normal. Perhaps there's room for improvement here: it would be great to have progress bars display when an operation takes more time than normal. -[i][u]Database Synchronization and Migration[/u][/i] +[u]Database Synchronization and Migration[/u] A common and useful feature you should expect from a MySQL front-end is a synchronization utility, and SQLyog has one: by clicking on [i]Database Synchronization[/i] under the Powertools menu you can start a quick and easy synchronization wizard, to automatically update two databases. Simply provide the connection details (even if they are on different hosts or require tunneling), and select the databases you want to synchronize, also specifying if you want a two-way synchronization or only one way. A similar function is [i]structure synchronization[/i], which can be used to keep only the structure (not the data) up-to-date between two databases. You won't be asked to create two new connections, but the operation can only be performed on databases that are already accessed by SQLyog. For more information on how to take advantage of SQLyog's advanced synchronization features, I recommend reading a very informative article specifically devoted to this subject, available online[8]. Another VERY interesting features SQLyog offers (which has been the subject of a whole article on DatabaseJournal.com[9]) is the possibility to easily migrate to MySQL from other ODBC sources. Through a relatively painless wizard it is possible to migrate from another database type to MySQL, while making sure that any errors are handled as expected. -[i][u]Periodic Tasks and Management[/u][/i] +[u]Periodic Tasks and Management[/u] MySQL is a wonderful relational database, but it fundamentally lacks the ability to execute scheduled queries and operations, which are normally accomplished by server-side scripts. SQLyog offers you the opportunity to easily create and administer periodic tasks, notifications and backups via a few wizards: the [i]Notification Services[/i] wizard, which can be used to send the result of a particular user-defined periodic query to an email address or execute maintenance queries, and the [i]Scheduled Backups[/i] wizard to automate full or partial database backups and exports. Webyog[10] itself offers an informative how-to[10] on these tasks, step-by-step with screenshots. Last but not least, you can manage all these scheduled jobs through a very handy [i]job manager[/i] located in the [i]Powertools[/i] menu.

What I really like about Ruby though is its inherent dynamic nature.</p> -<p>You have a very few constraints when coding:</p> -<ul> - <li>you can open and close class definitions at will,</li> - <li>you are not constrained by object types</li> - <li>you can mix-in methods in multiple classes at the same time</li> - <li>you can write code that <em>writes itself</em> dynamically (this is commonly called <em>metaprogramming</em>)</li> - <li>you can easily create Domain-Specific Language to solve problems faster, with style</li> - <li>you can create and pass around blocks of code</li> -</ul> -<p>All these things make the language very flexible and powerful.
