微软真的在玩开源了！出了个PHP的玩意儿。

先说点：开源不一定免费，免费不一定开源；开源不一定使用GPL或者LGPL；开源不一定是GNU意义上的自由，GNU的自由实际上不算很自由，限制不少；BSD许可证很自由，但是也不算自由，因为使用在这个许可证下的“自由”软件来开发软件的开发者可以让自己基于它的自己做的软件不再开源不再免费。

开源还是免费抑或“自由”其实都没有什么，都在经济体系的控制下。具体想使用什么还是看自己的实际情况；还是要端正心态。

支持微软！

Overview PHP Toolkit for ADO .NET Data Services enables PHP developers to accessdata services created using ADO .NET Data Services framework. The goalis to provide the similar functionality as .NET library to access andmodify the data and its relationship using URIs which points to piecesof data integrated with the web.
Read this blog post "A new bridge for PHP developers to .NET through REST: PHP Toolkit for ADO.NET Data Services" for a more detailed introduction.

The ADO .NET Data Servicesframework consists of a combination of patterns and libraries thatenable the creation and consumption of data services for the web. Thegoal of the ADO.Net Data Services framework is to facilitate thecreation of flexible data services that are naturally integrated withthe web, using URIs to point to pieces of data and simple, well-knownformats to represent that data, such as JSON and plain XML. Thisresults in the data service being surfaced to the web as a REST-styleresource collection that is addressable with URIs and that agents caninteract with using the usual HTTP verbs such as GET, POST or DELETE.

Architecture The PHP Toolkit for ADO .NET Data Services is based on an utility(PHPDataSvcUtil) that is used to generate a proxy class from an ADO.NET Data Service, the class is then used in the PHP application toconnect/edit/add/delete or browse records from the Data Service.

PHPDataSvcUtil ToolPHPDataSvcUtil tool generates a single proxy PHP file that containsclass definitions which will be used by the client application toaccess the data service.

ADO.NET Data Services provide a metadata endpoint that returns a schema ofresources and URIs deployed by the data service. This metadataconsists of an EntityContainer that holds collection of EntityType. AnEntityType represents a useful element of data in the domain of anapplication, such as a customer, order, product, or supplier. Arelationship between entities is defined as an AssociationType. Pleaserefer ADO .NET Data Service Specifications for details.

PHPDataSvcUtil tool generates one container class and one class for each EntityType.
