Introduction

Welcome to Flextrine

Flextrine is an ORM (object relational mapper) for Flex that provides easy to use and transparent persistence for Flex RIAs. There are a number of similar projects in existence including Adobe's LiveCycle DataServices, GraniteDS and Pimento. Flextrine's aim is to bring the power and simplicity of these Java based systems to the Flex/PHP developer.

Flextrine is released under a GPLv3 licence which means it is free to use in open-source projects. If you are interested in using Flextrine in a commercial project please get in touch to discuss licencing.

Requirements

• Flex 3 or Flex 4
• PHP 5.3+
• MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle and SQLite are currently supported

Technologies

Flextrine makes use of a number of open-source projects and libraries in order to function. Appropriate versions of these libraries are bundled with Flextrine for your convenience.

• Doctrine 2
• Zend_Amf
• Zend_Acl
• vLIB

I am indebted to the developers of these libraries, especially Doctrine 2, without which Flextrine would not have been possible.
