The code on page 8 which reads:
-----------------------------------------------

class JACExtensionData extends eZPersistentObject
{
/*!
Konstruktor
*/
function JACExtensionData( $row )
{
$this->eZPersistentObject( $row );
}

/*!
Definition of the data object structure /of the structure of the database table
*/
function definition()
---------------------------------------------

In Exponential 4.x should be:
-------------------------------------------

class JACExtensionData extends eZPersistentObject
{
/*!
Konstruktor
*/
function JACExtensionData( $row )
{
$this->eZPersistentObject( $row );
}

/*!
Definition of the data object structure /of the structure of the database table
*/
static function definition()
------------------------------------------------

Then it works!

For an extension that adds one or more tables to the db, it is important to create a share/db_schema.dba file where these new tables are described.

This way when the admin goes to the "Setup/Upgrade Check/Check db consistency" page

- he will note get a suggestion to drop the table

- he will get a suggestion with the sql command to create the table if the table does not exist

This is true since eZP 4.3

The format for db_schema.dba is propietary to eZ. You can find examples in ezfind, ezflow and other extensions from eZ Systems

To generate that file you can use the ezsqldumpschema.php script. Take care: right now it will create a file with the definition of the whole db, so you should either use it in a db where you only have your new table(s) or clean up by hand the generated .dba file

To really be a mirror for best practice, then code examples should add phpdoc and use php5 features like __construct and so on, eg:

/**
 * JACExtensionData does....
 */
class JACExtensionData extends eZPersistentObject
{
   /**
    * Constructor
    *
    * @param array $row Hash of attributes for new <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; " mce_fixed="1">JACExtensionData</span> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; " mce_fixed="1"><span>object</span></span>
    */ 
    function __construct( $row )
    {
        parent::__construct( $row );
    }

   /**
    * Definition of the data object structure /of the structure of the database table
    *
    * @return array Hashed array with table definition of this p<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; " mce_fixed="1">ersistent object</span>
    */ 
    static function definition()

Additionally, member variables should probably be protected/private to make sure attribute() function is used outside the class.

Hi Guys!

Is there a way to create a custom locale file (eng-US@custom.ini) inside an extension?

Any help will be appreciated!

Template operators ? Placing them in the 'autoloads' directory, at the root of the given extension directory, is the usual practice.

Cheers,
