Another PHP bugbear… - Michael Kimsal

This issue came to hit me this morning when looking up info on class constants. The current PHP documentation located at http://us2.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.constants.php has code displayed that doesn’t work. Specifically the concept of
$obj = new myObject();
echo $obj::constantName;
This simply doesn’t work in PHP 5.2.4 (and I assume 5.2.5). You get the dreaded “unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM” […]

Another PHP5 Framework? - James McLean

I’ve been working on an Object Oriented PHP5 Framework in my spare time since before many of the current frameworks were around, it’s been around 2 years now since I started coding (mainly in my spare time).

YANYRP - Yet another new years resolution post - Vidyut Luther

I’m a strong believer in the power of the written word, and that if you want to achieve anything, you must write down your goals. It’s a little like documentation and defining requirements for a software project, in life if you haven’t written down what you want, you’re missing the requirements document of your life. […]

Padraic Brady’s Blog: Namespaces (or Yet Another Pointless Opinion Piece)

Adding even more to the huge namespaces debates going on, Padraic Brady has some of his opinions posted to his blog on the subject.

The problem isn’t that namespaces are bad, it’s that these arcane structures seem to have so little impact on development in PHP today for many many people. Does that mean it’s unimportant?

Photo industry braces for another revolution

Source: CNET Written by Stephen Shankland
Think of it as digital photography 2.0.
In the last decade, photography has been transformed by one revolution, the near-total replacement of analog film cameras by digital image sensors. Now researchers and companies are starting to stretch their wings by taking advantage of what a computer can do with sensor data […]

Michael Kimsal’s Blog: Another PHP bugbear…

Micheal Kimsal has pointed out another “bugbear” he’s found in his work with PHP - this time it’s with the use of class constants.

My issue is not with the language itself (this time!) but how this sort of documentation is handled. Updating public documentation well ahead of a release creates confusion.

He’s referring to the documentation […]

Another Great Post on Smashing Magazine - Elizabeth Naramore

I am in love with the Smashing Magazine site, as it’s a fabulous reference site for web devs (although admittedly, they have a focus on design topics as opposed to coding). Their tagline is “we smash you with information that will make your life easier. Really.” and they do live up to that. I’ve […]
