[RESOLVED] Upgrading to Zend Framework 1.7

[YAOMK]

Hi guys, I'm trying to update Zend Studio (Eclipse plugin 6.0.1) to use Zend Framework 1.7, has anyone done this? is there a streamlined process of doing this? or do I have to manually update the file structure of Zend Studio to use the new version?

I guess I'm going to have to contact Zend tomorrow about this. I'll post back with their solution for those facing the same issue.

For those of you interested here is an excerpt from Zend:

Summary


Zend Studio for Eclipse is supporting latest Zend Framework and you might need the latest library code referred in your updated projects.

Web Server Modifications


In order to update the web server, you just need to download and extract the ZF library to your library path, and include the new library in the php.ini include_path, or in the beginning of your PHP code using Zend Framework.

Zend Studio for Eclipse Modifications


1. Download and extract the Zend Framework package to your client machine
2. Create a new ZF project and fill in the first page.
3. Click Next - You will see a reference for FRAMEWORK_HOME to the location under Eclipse package
4. Remove the pre-configured ZF_HOME variable - it usually defaults to %INSTALL_PATH%/ZendStudioForEclipse-6.0.0/plugins/com.zend.php.framework.resource_6.0.0.v20080107/resources/ZendFramework
5. Add a new external folder that points to the ZF directory you downloaded on step 1. The directory should include the 'Zend' library, in ZF 1.5.1 it is the directory 'library'
6. Your new project should include ZF 1.5.1. To verify this simply try to initiate an object of Class Zend_Layout (will not exist for ZF 1.0.3 and below).

Fixed in


Next version of Zend Studio for Eclipse will include an update for Zend Framework.
