With this thread, for myself, I have some questions of the same. Again I
am new top PHP. Coming from Java I design and write in OOD\OOP manner.
And some patterns where I find it applicable.
I am now trying to figure all that out when using php as a scripting
language how I should do that. My best bet to find that out is to look
at code already developed, say Pear code or some main stream PHP
products. The same way I would look at the Java JDK source for tips on
coding the OOD\OOP way.
Naturally I have seen many introductions to using OOPs with PHP but not
much OOD. In Java I would segregate my code into the appropriate classes
in their own files 'class.java'. Also keeping any sub classing of a
class in the same file. Not sure if I can subclass or have anonymous
classes in PHP yet.
I was going to do the same with PHP. Should I keep these classes in a
file as class.php or class.inc? What are the feelings about designing
PHP code like this. I realize that there is a lot of overhead doing it
this way but then PHP just started to allow any type of OOP. I am sure
this will work it's self out as PHP matures to handle OOP. I am just
having a problems with the 'top-downness' of php as a scripting lang.
