So, this does work with PHP 5.3.1 directly downloaded from php.net. I did have to download pcre8.01, as well as jpeg7. But, it’s working with 10.6.2 server.

Great article, I’d like to see your personal framework with this. Can you share please?

Anyone try this with PHP 5.3.1? I’m going to give it a shot tomorrow, but thought I’d ask before potentially wasting an afternoon. =P

Fantastic article mate. I searched the net for ages with utter rubbish until I came across this. One thing though isn’t it defaulting to XML at the line:

$this->http_accept = (strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT'], ‘json’)) ? ‘json’ : ‘xml’;

and not JSON? Or am I missing something simple?

Thanks for the help mate just this bit is confusing me.

Does anyone know if this works for OS X Snow Leopard Server as well?

Comment on Making RESTful Requests in PHP by Mahmud Ahsan

I like your example. You wrote it very nicely and its easy to understand. Using framework is good to develop quickly but understanding real implementation is essential for knowledge.

I’ve read several articles about REST in net and I found it’s one of the best article among them. Good Work!

The link to PCRE 7.7 didn’t work, so I took the link to PCRE 7.9 from the comment above, but make failed with the following:
=======
Dae-MacPro:pcre-7.9 Dae$ make
make all-am
/bin/sh ./libtool –tag=CC –mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -g -Os -pipe -no-cpp-precomp -MT pcre_compile.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/pcre_compile.Tpo -c -o pcre_compile.lo pcre_compile.c
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -g -Os -pipe -no-cpp-precomp -MT pcre_compile.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/pcre_compile.Tpo -c pcre_compile.c -o pcre_compile.o
gcc-4.2: -E, -S, -save-temps and -M options are not allowed with multiple -arch flags
make[1]: *** [pcre_compile.lo] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2
=======

I didn’t fix the problem: instead I took PCRE 7.7 from here:
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/pcre/pcre/7.7/pcre-7.7.tar.gz

Make worked like a charm with the older version.

Also wanted to mention something about plugging in mcrypt (useful for latest version phpmyadmin) for php as discussed here:

http://michaelgracie.com/2009/09/23/plugging-mcrypt-into-php-on-mac-os-x-snow-leopard-10.6.1/

Recompiling PHP will NOT affect a previous mcrypt plug-in installation.

I am running a 64bit Xserve with Snow Leopard 10.6.2, and the above process with pcre7.9 and libjpeg7 worked flawlessly for me and maintains mcrypt.

Thanks to all who contributed.
