File structure

customerService.PHP

 include 'vo/VOCustomer.php';
 include 'mydb.php';
   
 class customerService 
 {    
  public function createCustomer(VOCustomer $cus)
  {
      $db = new mydb();
      $db->connect();
      
      $query = sprintf("insert into customer (CusId, CusName, CusContact,idcompany) values ('%s','%s','%s','%s')",
      mysql_real_escape_string($cus->CusId),
      mysql_real_escape_string($cus->CusName),
      mysql_real_escape_string($cus->CusContact),
      mysql_real_escape_string($cus->idcompany));

      $rs = mysql_query($query) or die ("Unable to complete query.");
      
      return 'success';
  }
 }

vo/VOCustomer.php

class VOCustomer {
    public $CusId;
    public $CusName;
    public $CusContact;
    public $idcompany;
}

When importing the customerService.php to a flex zend project Its possible that the data type may not return as VOCustomer sometimes it will show Object as type

How to make the passing object as VOcustomer object ?

Answer 1

I’m not sure the ‘Connect to PHP’ wizard understands type hinting.
Even if it does Zend AMF will pass an Objet not a VOCustomer to the method.
It’s safer to add a PHPDoc comment:

/**
 * @param VOCustomer $cus
 */
public function createCustomer($cus)

Second add dummy function to your service that returns VOCustomer. The ‘Connect to PHP’ wizard generates a value object only if it’s returned by a service method.

/**
 * @return VOCustomer
 */    
public function getCustomer() {
    //Do nothing
}
