11/01/2007
PHP|Architect has just published an article by Timothy Boronczyk entitled “Phalanger— When PHP Meets .NET.” Microsoft’s .NET is hyped as a language-agnostic framework, but PHP developers may say it’s left them out in the cold. Phalanger is a project that aims to bridge that gap, initially by making it possible to compile PHP code into .NET libraries, but latterly moving towards compatibility with the cross-platform Mono framework too. The article appears in the November, 2007, issue. For more information and to purchase a copy, visit http://phparch.com/c/magazine/issue/62.
