Enabling/Disabling PHP Support
In this Topic ShowHide
Enabling PHP Support allows you to connect an existing PHP project to
an existing or new Flex project. PHP Support allows your Flex Project
to be aware of, and interact with, the PHP project you define. This
will create a Flex/PHP or Flex Mobile/PHP application. PHP Support must
be enabled before you can introspect
your PHP service.
Note:
If you have created
a new Flex and PHP project or created
a new Flex Mobile and PHP project, PHP Support is automatically enabled
for the projects.
Enabling PHP Support
This procedure describes how to enable PHP Support, which associates
your Flex project with a PHP project. Before enabling PHP Support you
must have a Flex or Flex Mobile project and a PHP project in your workspace.
PHP Support can be enabled for a Flex or Flex Mobile project which was
created separately from the PHP project.

Flex/PHP Support

page opens.

- Server options - Enter the following:
- Web root - The web server's directory,
for example “C:\Program Files\Zend\Apache2\htdocs”.
- Root URL - The URL of your server. For
example, your root URL can be “http://localhost”.
- Output folder - Select an output folder for
your compiled Flex/PHP application. The output folder is where
the debug output is kept, which by default is stored in the
“public” folder of your PHP project.

For more information see The

with your Flex/PHP application or disable
PHP Support. |
Disabling PHP Support
This procedure describes how to disable PHP Support. Disabling PHP Support
will disassociate your Flex or Flex Mobile project with your PHP project.
Once PHP Support is disabled, you will not be able to work
with your Flex/PHP or Flex Mobile/PHP application, but will instead
have two separate projects which have no knowledge of one another.
PHP Support can only be disabled if the Flex project was previously
associated with a PHP project (either by enabling
PHP Support or by creating a Flex/PHP
or Flex Mobile/PHP
project).
