As of Zend Framework 1.9, you can instantiate Zend_Db_Table. This
added benefit is that you do not have to extend a base class and configure it to do
simple operations such as selecting, inserting, updating and deleteing on a single
table. below is an example of the simplest of use cases.
Example 259. Declaring a table class with just the string name
<?php
Zend_Db_Table::setDefaultAdapter($dbAdapter);
$bugTable = new Zend_Db_Table('bug');
The above example represents the simplest of use cases. Make not of all the
options describe below for configuring Zend_Db_Table tables. If
you want to be able to use the concrete usage case, in addition to the more complex
relationhip features, see the Zend_Db_Table_Definition
documentation.
