symfony is a set of cohesive but decoupled classes
symfony platform
http://localhost/index.php!
http://localhost/index.php?name=Fabien!
Hello Fabien
Hello World
http://localhost/hello /Fabien!
Hello Fabien

sfEventDispatcher // sfPatternRouting!$callback = array($this, ’filterParameters‘);!
$dispatcher->connect(’request.filter_parameters‘, $callback);!
// sfWebRequest!$event = new sfEvent($this, ‘request.filter_parameters’);!
$dispatcher->filter($event, $parameters);!
• sfPatternRouting and sfWebRequest are decoupled • « Anybody » can listen to any event • You can notify existing events or create new ones
Some events application.log application.throw_exception context.load_factories request.filter_parameters user.change_culture controller.page_not_found response.filter_content view.cache.filter_content *.method_not_found
