Zend Framework 1.8 and Zend_Application

I have been busy getting chapter 6 out the door for a while now, and as part of this I have been trying out the Zend_Application prototype in the ZF svn.
I now have a fully working version of the Storefront using Zend_Application, the storefront itself is still unfinished but I though I would post a link to the new source in case anyone
was wanting to try it…

Zend_Application Try Branch

All in all I am very happy with the way Zend_Application works, it has enabled me to lose a lot of my own library code! Which makes things much easier.


Quick Install Notes

You will need to checkout the trunk incubator and the Zend_Application user branch.

Inside the library folder:

svn co http://framework.zend.com/svn/framework/standard/incubator/library Incu
svn co http://framework.zend.com/svn/framework/standard/branches/user/dasprid/Zend_Application/library Zapp

These are then added to the include_path in application/application.php, you will also need to patch the Zend_Application files using the ZApp_Zend.diff included in the branch, these are just some minor changes I need to do to get things working with the storefront and some minor bugs, remember it is a prototype! (run the patch from within the Zapp folder)
