Re: [Phpgroupware-developers] phpgwapi for a non groupware app

If it's possible, the best thing to do is make it fully-phpGWized, i.e. based 
off skel.  Then just make your own index.php, and munge auth and sessions to do 
what you need.

If that's not possible, the second best thing is to make a wrapper that can 
load classes from phpgwapi/inc/.  With a simple framework, you can copy a 
single class over and use it.  Database abstraction, crypto, templates, and 
probably most others can be loaded by themselves.  Others may have dependencies 
on other classes or config settings that need to handled before loading.  So 
it's just like using any other class you might find.

Now that I think of it, those are pretty obvious :), but I can say they both 
work reasonable well.
