Subject: When is php going to grow up??
When is php going to grow up?? I want to be able to write php store procedures inside any of the major databases (Postgre, Sql Server ,db2,Oracle,Sybase)
I want php to be one of the .Net languages supported by Microsoft (like perl, or C#) so I can write my windows GUI based applications. I want to be able to compile my php applications. I want to run a php application server (EPB Enterprise PHP Bean)(similar weblogic,websphere,etc) and all the cool things it implies(load balancing, transactions, messaging etc, etc). I think PHP is too good to stay where it is.

I guess you can write php stored procedures in PostgreSQL...
I want php to be one of the .Net languages supported by Microsoft

I want to be able to compile my php applications.
You can compile it and even encode it. But you can't package it yet. :-(
I want to run a php application server (EPB Enterprise PHP Bean)(similar
weblogic,websphere,etc) and all the cool things it implies(load balancing,
transactions, messaging etc, etc).
It would be a great step forward! With the CLI sapi you can run
a PHP script as an executable program. With a CORBA, COM or XML-RPC you
can make your script act as a server application (that's not an
apllication server).
I think PHP is too good to stay where it is.
I agree. Even with some opinions that PHP isn't made for enterprise
services, that it's only a "Web Script Language", I think that, in
the near future, it will hit the enterprise services as a free software
application server language.
There will be a long path till then, but PHP5 is a start and there are a
lot of developers contributing for it.
Best Regards,
Cristiano Duarte
