Dreamweaver & MySQL Extension for PHP

Hey guys,
As everybody knows, the mysql extension in PHP has been deprecated and it will soon be replaced by mysqli, so does anybody know where I can find an Adobe Extension I can use so I can start using mysqli with Dreamweaver instead of mysql?
By the way, I'm using CS5, CS5.5, so I don't have access to exchange since Adobe put it to work only with CS6.
Thanks

Unfortunately there is no extention available at the moment which replaces the old/current msql server behaviours in DW for msqli. Whilst they are/were useful they are/were also were quite limiting.
After Adobe announced that they would be removing the server behaviors in the current version of DW CC and that php announced that it would no longer support the sql extention in it's next release personally I decided it was time to move on. The good news is using sqli to connect/query a database is really quite a simple proceedure. Just Google a few tutorials.
I understand the reasoning for wanting sqli automation BUT its not available at the moment so you have two choices, 1) continue to use the old mysql server behaviours or 2) learn the new sqli way. It wont take you long to get to grips with it. The server behaviours in DW only offered the basics so learning those basics using sqli isn't going to be too time consuming, plus you actually get more familar with the coding.

it was installed in /usr/lib/php/modules/ I copied imagic.so to /opt/lampp/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/ but it still don't work ;/
Edit: problem solved, i made a mistake adding "imagic.so" in php.ini instead of "imagick.so".

[SOLVED] Php not loading mysql extensions [Merge php.ini.pacnew file].

Hi guys.
I have bitten the bullet and upgraded to the Apache 2.4 and PHP from testing and solved a 10 tons of post-upgrade config nightmares just to figure out that MariaDB will not work with those versions until recompiled against them. Can we please have MariaDB added to testing repo after it was compiled against the Apache and PHP from testing?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards.

I am not an idiot guys (well maybe I am but...), I would not come here and complain about missing extensions for mysql if I didnt tripple checked they were enabled in php.ini.
[root@icsserver andrzejl]# cat /etc/php/php.ini | grep -v ';' | grep -i mysql | grep ext
extension=mysqli.so
extension=mysql.so
extension=pdo_mysql.so
[root@icsserver andrzejl]#

PHP is working fine from what I can see.
And Wordpress spits out:
"Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL extension which is required by WordPress."
Which I assumed meant that the mysqld (in this case MariaDB) should be recompiled against php to provide those extensions. Could be wrong. Wouldn't be the first time.
Cheers.

I have flash builder 4.5 premium and want to know if there is an extension for php

I have flash builder 4.5 premium and want to know if there is an extension / plugin to add the php functions or do I have to buy the Flash Builder 4.5 premium for php version?
I was wanting to add the PHP functions to my current Flash Builder premium 4.5
I would like to know how to add this if it can be done with my version of Flash Builder 4.5 Premium.
Thanks
Maurice

No I have the Flash Builder 4.5 for PHP version and I am happy to pay for what ever help i need. but I am looking for a component to emable me to build a specific project.
The project I want to build is a schedule. I looked at an IBM scheduler http://visunetdemos.demos.ibm.com/ganttdemos/humanresources/humanresources.html
This IMB Scheduler does everything i am looking for but is way over kill. My Project is much simpler. So paying $1000 for this would be excessive.

Dreamweaver CS3 Extension for CFMX7

I've just downloaded (and installed) CFMX7.02 and Dreamweaver
CS3. The extension for Dreamweaver in /wwwroot/CFIDE/installers ...
file name: CFMX7DreamWeaverExtensions.mxp says isn't compatible w/
Dreamweaver CS3 when installed using the Extension Manager that
came with the Dreamweaver CS3 installation.
Any help on getting CF extensions for Dreamweaver CS3 would
be appreciated.

I believe that extension was for DW MX 2004, everything after
that should have the server side CF stuff in it.

btw, I'm running on localhost
May someone pls tell me what's wrong with it?
many thanks!

Hi,
maybe your issue is related to what´s already been posted to the Dreamweaver Application Development forums:

MySQL extensions with DW CS4

I am setting up DW to work with PHP, MySQL and Apache. All seems to be fine except that when I try to connect to the database with CS4, I get the message "Your PHP server doesn't have the MySQL module loaded or you can't use the mysql_(p)connect functions. Kevin Yank states in his book that you can't use the mysql and the mysqli extensions together and David Powers on page 590 of his book says to enable both extensions. Problem is when I enable both of them, Apache crashes. Since I can't enable the mysql extension in the php.ini file, I inherently can't use the mysql_pconnect function which is what is used in DW4. PHP/Apache and MySQL work fine if I enable the mysqli extension in php.ini. Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?
I am using Apache/2.2.14 (Win32) and PHP/5.2.11

Without the benefit of seeing what Kevin says in his book, it's difficult to know exactly what he means. However, I suspect that what he's saying is that you can't mix mysql and mysqli code, which is perfectly correct. The extensions use completely different - and therefore incompatible - functions.
That doesn't mean you can't have both extensions installed on the same server. I have mysql, mysqli, and PDO-mysql all enabled on both my testing server and my dedicated remote server. As long as you don't mix them in the same script, they all live together in perfect harmony.
Since I can't enable the mysql extension in the php.ini file, I inherently can't use the mysql_pconnect function which is what is used in DW4.
Why can't you enable the mysql extension in php.ini?
Did you use the PHP Windows installer? One of its drawbacks is that it installs dynamic link libraries only for those extensions that you select during the installation process. As a result, you won't have php_mysql.dll in the PHP ext folder. Either reinstall or get hold of the zip version of PHP from the PHP downloads page. Copy php_mysql.dll into the ext folder, and you should be able to use the mysql extension.

Compiling gettext extension for mod_php

On this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10106396
pterobyte listed some great instructions for downloading and recompiling the gettext extension for PHP. That's exactly what I need, so I followed the instructions and was able to compile and install the extension. However, when I restart Apache, the following not-so-helpful message appears in Apache's error_log:
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/gettext.so' - dlopen(/usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/gettext.so, 9): image not found in Unknown on line 0
If I examine the .so with file, it seems to be exactly what's expected:
% file /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/gettext.so
/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/gettext.so: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures
/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/gettext.so (for architecture i386): Mach-O bundle i386
/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/gettext.so (for architecture x86_64): Mach-O 64-bit bundle x86_64
I don't have any other customizations in my Apache or PHP (and I really don't want to move to MacPorts, I had bad luck with it in the past).
Has anybody had luck getting the gettext extension compiled on 10.6 ?

It looks like you have the .so file under the wrong directory (or is it an old version?).
PHP is trying to load /usr/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/gettext.so (presumably because that's what you listed in php.ini), but the file you're looking at is /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/gettext.so. 20060613 looks like a date -- almost 4 years ago, so make sure you compiled the correct version.

Where to go next with Dreamweaver and server-side (php/mysql) applications?

This question is mainly directed at David Powers but I appreciate any input from anyone with the same concern or question.
I've been using DW since the change from Macromedia and have developed a number of applications using built in server behaviors and sb extensions from ADDT, WebAssist, etc. I've learned to customize these behaviors to fit my needs always keeping within the "canned" code. In this way I've "learned" php.
I own most of David's books and in fact, it was because of these that I have any idea about what I'm doing and went in this direction in my "developer" career (building php/mysql applications using Dreamweaver.)
With the decision to remove server behaviors (and the other "developer" panels) from DW and with the deprecation of the mysql extension from the php landscape, I'm wondering where to go next? I fully understand this has to happen.
I'm aware of some alternatives:
Zend or some other framework - to me, this seems extremely complex
Keep several versions of DW installed
Stick to Joomla/WordPress/Drupal - let others who know what they're doing build the architecture
Actually LEARN php - wish I had time; too much work to do (I know how illogical that sounds but it's a very real situation)
I know I'm going to have to switch out all that deprecated code or better yet, rebuild the many applications which used the DW (and other) server behaviors. I'm just not sure which way to turn.

Since I wrote this post I concluded that there is no substitute for understanding and have started my re-education by delving further into the issue with updated PHP/MySQL books and tutorials so I can prepare for a Dreamweaver without this functionality.
Yes, I too have concluded that is the way to go as well. There really is no substitute for learning as much as you can. Whilst the DW Server Behaviours were very convenient they have not kept pace, Adobe prefering to spent their time on less important updates in my opinion. The Server Behaviours are what makes Dreamweaver the tool of choice for database integration for those who lack the knowledge. I feel the Adobe team will regret not coming up with an alternative. Anything that detracts from making the program what it is is a step in the wrong direction and for sure this is a big step in the wrong direction.
rjjacob wrote:
I have mainly used DW server behaviors in my development projects that's why I am curious about what others are doing to make the change. I'm surprised there haven't been more posts; perhaps I'm the last one to be taking action about this, or maybe no one is too worried about it yet.
I think a lot have changed their working practice but many more are burying their heads in the sand. sql_ support is a way off from being completely dropped yet.
rjjacob wrote:
Anyway, your assessment of how terrible the server behaviors are is correct. I'm finding that true after barely breaking the binding on a few books about the greater subject and looking into mysqli and PDO.
Yes, because I relied heavily on them I did not know how bad they were until I forced myself to look further afield. What you can do in a couple of lines of code the DW Server Behaviors produced quadruple or more to achieve the same.
rjjacob wrote:
But they sure were convenient!
Yes, I agree. Maybe some extention developer will come up with a set of new improved behaviours. I tell you if they do they will make a shed load of money.

Dreamweaver and Flash Builder for PHP

I have created a php database in Dreamweaver, can this database be imported or converted to Flash Builder for PHP?

MySQL has nothing to do with Dreamweaver or any other development software. It's a DBMS (which stands for DataBase Management System). More simply, it's a way to store data. Other DBMS are PostgreSQL, Oracle, and so on..., as mentionned above.
To use your existing MySQL database with FlashBuilder for PHP, simply specify where you store your PHP services on your computer when you create your project. Then FB will attempt to connect to MySQL with the help of your PHP code.
And you'll be able to retrieve your data in the brand new Spark Datagrids !
Hope it'll help.

Getting started in Developing extensions for Dreamweaver CC

Hi,
i'm looking for info on how to get started developing extensions for DW CC. Specifically:
1. guides, tutorials
2. API reference
What i'm looking to be able to do is, among others:
1. add elements for inserting into the "insert" panel/menu
2. add panels.
3. be able to drag elements from that panel into the design
4. be able to identify tags in the web page as special tags. like how jquery UI tags are identified and have this little hovering label
5. be able to develop specialized property views for special tags. like how jquery ui tags have special properties, once i pressed that little hovering label thing.
One question that answering can really help - can say the guides for CS5 be a good starting point, and from there figure out what to do via the extendscript toolkit?
of are there later guides that i can use?
Regards,
Gal.

Hi Gal,
I quote from an very old note in my library:
True, the Adobe documentation on extensions creation is very slim, especially if you are looking at the latest releases. What I think you should do is to look back to the origins. First of all the SDK offers great examples (from 2003):
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm?event=extensionDetail&extid=1009962
Also there are two great books: Dreamweaver MX Extensions by Laura Gutman and Building Dreamweaver 4 & UltraDev 4 Extensions by Tom Muck and Ray West. I believe you may read free chapters online in places such Safari library or Google books.
The books are old, you have to understand and adapt for the new versions, but in essence everything stays the same.
... and here another Adobe link:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/dreamweaver/cs/extend/dreamweaver_cs5_extending.pdf (see page 2 "Creating an extension")
On the other hand I'm sure you could ask well known, long-established developers. Some of them roam through our forum.

Adobe AIR 1.5.2 Extension for Dreamweaver CS3

I downloaded what I thought to be the updated version of Adobe AIR Extension for Dreamweaver CS3 for the new AIR 1.5.2 release, but it looks like the extension (Adobe_AIR_CS3.mxp) is still the 2008 version (exactly the same file size, and Dreamweaver overwrites the version number I manually input ("1.5.2") in the Adobe AIR configuration file with "1.5".
Attention Dreamweaver and Adobe AIR teams: when will the extension be updated for AIR version 1.5.2?
Thanks!
