15. symfony and immobilienscout24.de
How we achieved it
call (e.g. getExpose()) build query
Interlutions SDK
call (e.g. getExpose()) IS24 SDK
Wrapper result object
send result
send query (XML)
IS24 API

The SDK uses it‘s own hydration
call (e.g. getExpose()) build query
Interlutions SDK
call (e.g. getExpose()) IS24 SDK
Wrapper result object
send result
send query (XML)
IS24 API

How we achieved it
The SDK uses it‘s own hydration
call (e.g. getExpose()) build query

Wrapper result object
We create proxies to send result
the result objects send query (XML)
