# CV. Paradox File Access

# Introduzione

Avvertimento
Questo modulo è SPERIMENTALE. Ovvero, il comportamento di queste funzioni, i nomi di queste funzioni, in definitiva tutto ciò che è documentato qui può cambiare nei futuri rilasci del PHP senza preavviso. Siete avvisati, l'uso di questo modulo è a vostro rischio.

This module allows to read Paradox database and primary index files. It has initial support for creating Paradox databases. Consider it to be experimental due to lack of documentation of the Paradox file format.

> Nota: This module has not been tested on other platforms than Debian/GNU Linux for PPC.

> Nota: This module is also in development and may change, though I don't expect major changes to the API.

# Requisiti

You need at least PHP 5.0.0 and libpx >= 0.1.9. The paradox library (libpx) is available at http://pxlib.sourceforge.net.

# Installazione

A short installation note: just type

    $ pear install paradox

in your console.

# Configurazione di Runtime

Questa estensione non definisce alcuna direttiva di configurazione in `php.ini`

# Object oriented API

The paradox extension provides also an object oriented API. It consists of only one class called paradox_doc. Its methods only differ from the functions in its name and of course the missing first parameter. The following table will list all methods and its equivalent functions.

Tabella 1. Methods of class paradox_doc

Name of method | Equivalent function
--- | ---
Constructor | px_new()
Destructor | px_delete()
open_fp() | px_open_fp()
create_fp() | px_create_fp()
close() | px_close()
numrecords() | px_numrecords()
numfields() | px_numfields()
get_record() | px_get_record()
put_record() | px_put_record()
get_field() | px_get_field()
get_schema() | px_get_schema()
get_info() | px_get_info()
set_parameter() | px_set_parameter()
get_parameter() | px_get_parameter()
set_value() | px_set_value()
get_value() | px_get_value()
get_info() | px_get_info()
set_targetencoding() | px_set_targetencoding()
set_tablename() | px_set_tablename()
set_blob_file() | px_set_blob_file()
timestamp2string() | px_timestamp2string()

# Costanti predefinite

Queste costanti sono definite da questa estensione e sono disponibili solo se l'estensione è stata compilata nel PHP o se è stata caricata dinamicamente a runtime.

The following two tables lists all constants defined by the paradox extension.
