Hall of Famer Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Diamond PHP framework is a unique framework for PHP in a way that it is a java-like framework. It attempts to make PHP work in the Java way, the currently available version already had some nicely looking libraries. I personally think its a rather promising project. Not saying turning PHP into java is a great idea, but that it encourages programming in OO way. From its sourceforge page, it says that the project is no longer under active development. I wonder why, so do anyone of you know what happened to Diamond PHP framework and its developers?

ignace Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 They realized PHP only implements half of Java's OO functionalities..

Hall of Famer Posted July 7, 2012 Author Share Posted July 7, 2012 Well it is PHP's problem that it does not implements as many OO functionalities as it should, not the developers. We all know PHP is not a fully developed language at this stage. On the other hand, I believe PHP is slowly adding more object oriented support, so it is not impossible for PHP to catch up with Java's OO features in not so distant future. I am not saying the project is quite practical at this point, but it is definitely promising with PHP's movement towards more of an object oriented programming language. For this reason I dont quite agree with the idea of dumping a project with such potential.

Pikachu2000 Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 If you want a language that works "in the Java way", might I suggest you try Java?
