Article: Handle File Data with the Facade Pattern in PHP 5 Part 2

In the last of a two part series, Alejandro Gervasio focuses on how to handle data with the Facade Pattern in PHP 5. This series shows you how to create and use facade classes in PHP-based development environments.

In the first part of the series, Alejandro worked in a step-by-step format to define a simple facade class. The class was capable of compressing a diverse range of contents, including all the source code created by a web page generator class.

In the second part, Alejandro continues demonstrating the application of the facade pattern. This time, he develops another illustrative application, which will take care of processing the contents of a selected data file in different ways.
