Re: [fw-mvc] difference between coding in index.php & bootstrap.php

The advantage of moving your db initialization code into a bootstrap file is that you can reuse the bootstrap for different contexts. For example, your index.php page, which is for the web, should include the bootstrap and then dispatch the front controller.

Other scripts, such as a CLI script, would include the bootstrap and then do whatever it needs to do (which usually doesn't involve dispatching the front controller).

hi

i create the $db object by this code in my root index.php :
/*
 * DB instance
 */
$dbConfig = $config->get ( 'db' )->toArray ();

$db = Zend_Db::factory ( $dbConfig ['adapter'], $dbConfig ['db'] );

try {
    $db->query("SET NAMES 'utf8'");
   
} catch ( Zend_Exception $e ) {
    die ( $e->getMessage () );
}
/*
 * add stuff to registery
 */

//Zend_Registry::set('templateEngine',$templateEngine);
Zend_Registry::set ( 'db', $db );
Zend_Db_Table_Abstract::setDefaultAdapter($db);
$db->getProfiler()->setEnabled(true);

but
i saw lot of example  that doing this in bootstrap.php

what choice is better between this 2 methods of declaring main objects like $db $cache $debug and ...?

what is the difference between using these file ?
