Hi again,

Now I can tell that I understand phpMyAdmin structure of code and generally how it works:) The first part of code that I'm going to turn into OOP is libraries, there is a horrible disorder in this part, and when you wont use some of library function you must make a big effort to do it well. Also scripts witch are used to initialised phpMyAdmin should be turn into OOP. Next step that I'm going to make is, as I wrote before, to separate out the logic of application and the view layer, when this will have been done, there will be easy work to port the rest code into OOP. I'll have three mounts only for this job, I think that it is possible to turn whole code of phpMyAdmin into OOP, maybe I'm wrong, but I'm going to try do it.

I have a question in matter of patch that I should sent with my proposal. Here http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2937379&group_id=23067&atid=377411 is written that "Currently SQL pretty printer shows documentation links", where are this links? Maybe I overlook something, but can you explain me about what exactly is this Feature Request?

Thank you
Mateusz Lewandowski

Hi,

That's why I wrote that I am not going to implement ORM.

I already downloaded the phpMyAdmin code from git repository and I started to learn how the phpMyadmin works. I had a look at the reported bugs, I'll try to fix some of them this weekend.

By the way of MVC, my friend will apply for User interface cleanup and if her proposal turns out to be successful, it will be possible that we can separate out the code into controller and view layers together, so that work will be more effective.

Thank you
Mateusz Lewandowski

By ORM, I guess you mean Object-relational mapping? I don't know much
about it, but after a quick glance, I think it would overcomplicate
things.
MVC is OK, the idea is to create classes that can be (re)used in
different parts of phpMyAdmin, anyway, the useroutput (View) should
not be in those general classes. Do you have an idea yet of what part
of phpMyAdmin you would turn into a class?

GSoC is a summer job. ;)

Remember to submit a patch by then as well.

Kind regards,
