Yeah that was my first impulse, to have a PHP interpreter in JBoss so that we could leverage all the PHP thingies out there.
clearly the problem with PHP is that the guys who do the front end modules and app DON"T KNOW THE FIRST THING ABOUT COMPONENTS and the benefits it brings in caching (see whole argument on EJB in BLUE). Putting EJB behind the whole mess would be great. PHP can talk java but it is out of process so that you go back to serialization and LOSE the benefit of caching. Period. So clearly having the PHP code interpreted in java would be great as you access the db data in cache. The problem is that the libraries used need to be ported too and that becomes a pain. I am really serious with the porting as Julien will be payed for this. marcf > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On > Behalf Of Holger Baxmann > Sent: Thursday, January 09, 2003 6:20 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [JBoss-dev] PHP > > > anybody thought about integrating php (and this way the > cms-whatever-this-is > thingy) into the the containers? maybe by calling the zend > engine natively? > > layer rules ... > > just an idea .. > > bax > > > Von: "Bill Burke" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Antworten an: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Datum: Thu, 9 Jan 2003 15:34:10 -0500 > > An: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Betreff: RE: [JBoss-dev] PHP > > > > IWE.
