By: Benjamin Smith Subject: Use the best option... Yeah, XML is the current, "buzzword compliant" technology, but many times, life gets much easier if you reduce your problem set to its minimum. For example, if you have a complex data structure you want to save to disk... <? // $arr is an array of whatever types of data $fp=fopen('savefile', 'w'); fwrite($fp, serialize($arr)); fclose($fp); ?> Wasn't that hard? Oh, but what about reading it? <? $fp=fopen('savefile, 'r'); $arr=unserialize(fread($fp, 1000000)); fclose($fp); ?> Gee... which is better for saving your data? XML is all fine and dandy, but remember that even buzzword-compliant technologies have their place. Don't forget to consider the advantages and costs of any particular solution and those of reasonably available alternatives before you standardize on it! |
