Oracle Symfony in PHP Minor

Overview

Symfony is a very popular model-View-Controller (MVC) framework for creating Web applications quickly and efficiently. Like many such tools, it uses an Object-Relational Mapper (ORM) called Propel. Symfony is a large and complex application generator with many options, and describing it in a relatively small article isn't an easy task. Most of the work is done with creating YAML description files, but there certainly are "Some assembly required" parts. This tool works perfectly with version control, there are numerous plug-in options, and it is relatively easy to learn and start using quickly. The current version, 1.0.15, has two major limitations: the complexity of the Propel ORM and lack of support for multicolumn foreign keys.
