Brian Swan continues his look at using the oData data feeds from PHP with this new look at creating some of the basic CRUD (create, read, update, delete) operations via the oData SDK for PHP.

This week I will go one step farther and look at how to perform CREATE, UPDATE, and DELETE operations (CRUD operations) with the generated classes. Of course, this means that I need access to a read-write service, so before writing PHP code for CRUD operations, I'll walk you through the steps for creating a service that implements the OData protocol.

He shows how to create the oData service (with a few screenshots), making the proxy classes for the connection and using methods like "AddObject", "UpdateObject" and "DeleteObject" to work directly with the data feed.
