Creole is a database abstraction layer for PHP5. It abstracts PHP's native |
|---|
| 6 |
db-specific API to create more portable code while also providing developers |
|---|
| 7 |
with a clean fully object-oriented interface based loosely on the API for Java's |
|---|
| 8 |
JDBC. |

|

| 10 |
There are a number of reasons why Creole exists (when there are already several |
|---|
| 11 |
options for PHP). Please see http://creole.phpdb.org for documentation, |
|---|
| 12 |
propaganda, and links to the competition. |

Jargon is part of the "Creole" project, but is considered a different package. |
|---|
| 18 |
The Jargon classes provide convenience features that Creole - which is designed |
|---|
| 19 |
to be a db abstraction layer for use within other apps and frameworks - lacks. |
|---|
| 20 |
|
|---|
| 21 |
Jargon provides convenience features such as the PEAR [M]DB getCol(), getOne(), |
|---|
| 22 |
etc. functions; Jargon makes it easy to perform paged queries; and Jargon |
|---|
| 23 |
provides a very basic set of DAO classes. |
