Hello, I have a unique issue that I need advice on.
I've been writing asp.net apps with SQL Server back ends for the past 10 years. During that time, I have also written some PHP apps, but not many.
I'm going to be porting some of my asp.net apps to PHP and have run into a bit of an issue. In the Asp.net world, it's generally understood that when accessing any databases, using views or stored procedures is the preferred way of doing so.
I've been reading some PHP/MySQL books and I'm beginning to get the impression that utilizing stored procedures in mysql is not advisable. I hesitate in using that word, advisable, but that's just the felling I get.
So, the advice I'm looking for is basically, am I right or wrong?
Do PHP developers use stored procedures at all? Or, is it something that is shunned?
Thanks in advance.
