[Phpmyadmin-devel] regexp changes in latest version
by Marc Delisle 12 Dec '03

12 Dec '03

SF bug tracker refuses new submissions for the moment (at least in our project) so I submit this here for comments. Thanks, Marc -------------- From Andrew Weiner: I get the following error in export.php when using the export tab and choose save as file and save on server is checked. Warning: Compilation failed: missing terminating ] for character class at offset 4 in /phpMyAdmin/export.php on line 251 Line 251: $save_filename = $cfg['SaveDir'] . preg_replace('@[/\\] @','_',$filename); There seems to be problems with the preg_replace syntax in various phpMyAdmin files. In general the regex should be delimited with a / on either side of the expression example: preg_replace('/@[/\\]@/','_',$filename); In this particular error bracketing the expression produces the following error: Warning: Unknown modifier '\' in /phpMyAdmin/export.php on line 251 Please look into this and make the necessary modifications. Thanks, Andrew

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Add-on for visualization
by MEYTS Michael 07 Dec '03

07 Dec '03

Hi, In order to make an end studies work in the domain of visualization and navigation into a relational database, I would like to use PhpMyAdmin as a library. The purpose of the work is to make another graphical interface allowing the users to navigate through the records of the database following the hypertext links on foreign keys, as it is now implemented into PhpMyAdmin. The difference with wath PhpMyAdmin offers is that the users shouldn't have access to the "administration" functions. Typically, it will work with only one database, showing all tables and records and allowing to follow the hypertext links on foreign keys (with some variants like not showing the value of the key (often an id) but perhaps some other more meaningful value recored in the foreign table) and allowing to make some SQL queries but without write-privileges on the db. No other functionnality is required, the interface must stay simple enough to allow navigation by many "not initiated to informatics" people. 1) Do you think using PhpMyAdmin as a library is possible? Is it enough modularized to allow me to use PhpMyAdmin through an API without much difficulties? 2) Do you have docs showing how PhpMyAdmin is constructed? (Class diagram, include files diagram, a table saying wich file does wath, a document explaining the structure of PhpMyAdmin, or something else) If yes, is it possible to receive this? 3) I think it would be the best to develop my application using PHP but do you know if it is possible to call php functions from Java? (This is possible for C or C++ functions through the Java Native Interface but I don't know for PHP) In advance, thank you very much for you help, MEYTS Michaël.

[Phpmyadmin-devel] branch for 2.5.5
by Marc Delisle 07 Dec '03

Hi, I will wait a few days before creating the maintenance branch for 2.5.5, unless someone really wants to start some development for the next version. This way, fixes will be merged faster (just in HEAD). Marc
