This is not an issue with Zendamf, but rather Zend_Db, and to resolve the issue I enforced the character set of the persistent db connection to UTF-8 by using the following statement in the Zend_Db::factory parameters:

‘driver_options’ => array(PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_INIT_COMMAND => ‘SET NAMES utf8′)

If anyone is having such issues, make this alteration to your db connection in your bootstrap (index.php) file.

Thanks again!

I’m not sure where else to post this (is there a Zendamf forum?), so:

There seems to be an issue passing special character values via Zendamf. I’ve written an application that deals with multiple languages. While querying a database that returns data including French-text characters (ie: Québec), the result returned from Zendamf is not handling the special characters (ie: instead of Québec, we receive Qu�c).

I’ve checked the output of the data via Php: the issue is not with the database result – the characters are returned correctly from the database to the Php result-set – I am able to print these characters correctly before they are sent through Zendamf, either by rendering them in HTML or by writing them to a log file.

However, once I plug the SQL result into an object and pass it to Zendamf, the special characters get mangled. Using Charles Web Debugging Proxy, I can see that the result values are mangled before they are passed back to my AS3 application.

Any ideas here? Thanks so much!

I’ll try to log a bug at Zend about this, too, I suppose…

class Test
{
private $_a;

public function setArray($a)
{
$this->_a = $a;
return $this->_a; // for debugging purposes (traces)
}

public function getArray()
{
return $this->_a; // always returns null (traces: null)

}

}

First I must say I love zend_amf and the whole zend_framework. It’s really that great!

However, I’m experiencing a problem with class mapping. When I have a array of VO’s within a another VO the VO’s in the array do not get mapped in Flex. Like this:

BussVO (OK)
- BussdriverVO (OK)
- passengerArray
– passengerVO (NO)
– passengerVO (NO)

I’ve checked with Charles and the mapping of the VO’s in the array looks ok but not when I check the result event in flex. I’m using the setClassMap method for my mappings.

Any ideas?

first of all – thx for your great work!
after the update to version 1.7.8 all my old projects didn’t work any longer because of a missing class name (i just call the method by name without the name of the class to which it belongs). would it be possible to keep the old behavior of the server in the case that $source isn’t defined instead of throwing an exception?

thx&br
