FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package mssql-bundle-legacy

DEPRECATED

realestate.co.nz still uses this bundle, but it's in legacy code that is being phased out. The capabilities of the bundle are limited, and have been superseeded by the Doctrine SQLServer support.

If you need a Doctrine DBLib driver, something like https://packagist.org/packages/leaseweb/doctrine-pdo-dblib should work.

If you wish to continue using the library, you may fork it and maintain it yourself. There will be no further development on this bundle moving forward.

Installation

Step 1. Install MssqlBundle

Add the realestate/mssql-bundle into composer.json

"require": {
    ....
    "realestateconz/mssql-bundle": "master-dev"
},

And run

Step 2. Configure DBAL's connection to use MssqlBundle

In config.yml, remove the "driver" param and add "driver_class" instead:

Step 3. Enable the bundle

Finally, enable the bundle in the kernel:

Notes

Prerequisites

This driver requires version 8.0 (from http://www.ubuntitis.com/?p=64) as default 4.2 version does not have UTF support

In /etc/freetds/freetds.conf, change tds version = 4.2 to tds version = 8.0

NVARCHAR & NTEXT data types

NVARCHAR & NTEXT are not supported. In SQL 2000 SP4 or newer, SQL 2005 or SQL 2008, if you do a query that returns NTEXT type data, you may encounter the following exception: _mssql.MssqlDatabaseError: SQL Server message 4004, severity 16, state 1, line 1: Unicode data in a Unicode-only collation or ntext data cannot be sent to clients using DB-Library (such as ISQL) or ODBC version 3.7 or earlier.

It means that SQL Server is unable to send Unicode data to FTREETDS, because of shortcomings of FTREETDS. You have to CAST or CONVERT the data to equivalent NVARCHAR data type, which does not exhibit this behaviour.
