hi,
I'm new here.
First of all, after reviewing more than 10 PHP Frameworks, the "best PHP code generation engine for your backend interfaces" showcase screencast hooked me up right away.
Moreover, I was about to go for those "do not depend on anything" frameworks because I was afraid that such versatile system, that make use many best existing components, would be hard to install. But I was wrong, and I'm really glad that I was wrong -- pasting 2 commands into my terminal, less than 2 minutes later, I have my Symfony fully installed! Everything is just amazing.
I do have a question about the "admin generator" doc,
http://www.symfony-project.com/book/trunk/generator
I was expecting that the doc would be a step by step explanation of the screencast video, so that people can follow, but it appears that it is not the case.
The doc seems to be talking about a different thing. Is it old, or too new?
One thing I remember in the video is that the database schema was build from xml file, and everything goes from there, but I wasn't able to find such introduction in the book, forum, etc.
Anyone can give me a little help?
PS. I've download the admin_generator.tgz, how could I try it out first even before I follow those steps?
thanks

The doc @
http://www.symfony-project.com/book/trunk/generator
is definately talking about a different thing than the video.
The doc talks about blog_article & blog_comment; whereas the videotalks about post, author & category.
Has anyone ever trying to follow the video?
Has the script for the video ever available somewhere?
I'm thinging this is very good toturial for people who have successfully went through the first symfony project, ie, the "out of the box" sf_sandbox one, who want to move forwards and try with the pear installation.
any comment?
thanks
