What's the situation? The second spring? Message called programming language PHP coming soon to mobile version
Summary: What the mobile version of PHP will look like and how it will be delivered is still a mystery.
Beijing Time October 4 News, U.S. technology blog VentureBeat writer John Koetsier recently wrote that the Internet's most popular programming language may soon be launched mobile version. The article points out that 75% of sites are using PHP, such as Facebook, Wikipedia, Yahoo, and Photobucket, are built using the PHP programming language, but the language still doesn't seem to have any respect. However, the mobile version of PHP should help this programming language continue to grow.
The following is the full text of this article:
There is a developer who loves and hates PHP, the most popular programming language on the Web, and when the caretaker of the programming language takes the next step, they will really hate it.
PHP was created by Danish programmer Resmose Ledauf (Rasmus Lerdorf) in 1995. In 1997, Israeli programmers Andy Gutemanns (Andi gutmans) and Ziffe Sulaski (Zeev Suraski) rewritten the parser, laying the groundwork for PHP 3. By 1999, the two had developed the Zend Engine, which is still the interpreter for PHP. Since then, Gutemanns and Sulaski continue to work together to create a commercial entity, Zend Technologie, to create expanded products and services for PHP developers, especially those serving in the enterprise.
Today, after several major iterations of the code base, 35% of the network traffic is handled by PHP, Gutemanns said. According to data from Wikipedia, 75% of websites are using PHP, such as Facebook, Wikipedia, Yahoo, and Photobucket, which are built using the PHP programming language. WordPress, the world's most popular blogging platform, is built in this language and is likely to account for half of its 35% of network traffic. In addition, most of the other major content management systems also use the same language, such as Drupal and Joomla.
Not to be respected.
Despite this, the language still seems to be unable to gain any respect, and for many years it has been ridiculed by programmers who write code in languages such as C, Java,. NET, Python, or Ruby. The use of PHP as a search term has shown a downward trend in the past few years, and the mobile application revolution has revived Objective-c and Java.
So does the programming language that supports so much network traffic disappear silently?
If Gutemanns has something to say about it, then the answer must be no. VentureBeat has talked to him about PHP and its future problems, and the result is that he is more bullish than ever about this programming language, especially when it comes to the upcoming mobile PHP release.
Grab Share
"All dynamic languages are now grabbing shares from Java and. Net. "Gutemanns said. "We are getting a lot of benefit from it. ”
As a result, the more fashionable techniques of Ruby on Rails or node. js are not particularly troubling to Gutemanns. The psychological share is certainly good, but the market share is better. The focus of Gutemanns is on market share data, especially in the market share of enterprise users.
"From a mature point of view," Gutemanns said, "I don't think for the moment any other dynamic language has a complete set of tools." Our competitors are Java and. NET ... And it's never the other dynamic language. ”
While Gutemanns likes what Ruby on Rails is doing and thinks PHP can learn and borrow something from it, he points out that PHP provides significant support for solutions such as WordPress, Drupal, and Magento. "Compared with eight years ago, now we have become better ... Today, we are the only programming language that can really get into mainstream business. "Gutemanns said. "We do believe that PHP's momentum and scale will continue. We don't think PHP is slowing down now. ”
Gutemanns's words came with the enthusiasm of the founders of the company; Of course, there are other companies that are catering to the needs of PHP-related businesses, but Zend is still one of the largest and most well-known PHP products and service providers, especially in terms of its origins.
Two-thirds of developers spend half their time on PHP, according to a recent research report. According to a recent study published by the Rails developer Marco Guerre (Marc Gayle), half of the developer positions on the classified information site Craigslist require PHP developers. When I was talking to Gail, he speculated that the reason might be that PHP has a super-popular content management system. "I think that gives the result an offset. "he said. "But I'm not sure. ”
Mobile Version coming Soon
When it comes to mobile apps, Gutemanns supports people such as JavaScript creator Brandon Aichi (Brendan Eich), who firmly believe that the Web and Web language will eventually catch up and defeat localized programming languages.
But Gutemanns implies that PHP and Zend will provide client-side application development tools. He declined to comment more, saying that he would announce all the details at the Zend Congress, which will be held at the end of October. However, it sounds like PHP will launch some kind of mobile version. For now, what the mobile version of PHP will look like and how it will be delivered remains a mystery. But Gutemanns says the mobile version of PHP will help the programming language continue to grow. This can be said to be unquestionable.
------Solution--------------------
If PHP is introduced to the mobile version, it is estimated that PHP is also a reform, since PHP is not only as a server language, the future involved will be more!
------Solution--------------------
PHP5 supports client support at the start of the rollout. All php5.1.x and the following versions have php5document.dll to support PHP as a client script in the browser. But the response is few, Occupy JS's territory is not easy
If the developer has this intention, then hope that the Phpern support!
It's really not easy to do something.
------Solution--------------------
Php5document.dll? It didn't work. Hopefully PHP will be a step closer.
------Solution--------------------
Good
------Solution--------------------
It looks like Zend's doing it.
and is for the mobile client, that is, and Object C, Java contention site ...
Believe that this thing and the current PHP is completely different .... Although it may be borrowed partly ...
------Solution--------------------
Not bad. See progress.

I am optimistic about PHP for the following reasons:
1. Its open source: Open source things are often like the undead cockroach, want to let him extinct, difficult!
2. Its open source: Because of open source, so many people participate, participate in many people can gather a lot of excellent ideas, its potential full!
3. Its open source: A few days before the Mid-Autumn Festival barbecue and a colleague chatted about his previous history of the bitterness of entrepreneurship, before he invested more than 1 million to develop a travel booking site, the results were used. Net+windows+mssql, haha website has not been developed have to spend a lot of money to buy the copyright of legitimate software! Finally lead to insufficient funds, fetal death in the belly!
Above is my humble opinion, please criticize correct!
------Solution--------------------
The Jews are fierce, admire!
------Solution--------------------
PHP is compiled to perform naturally for JS has advantages, but the client is inertia ..........
------Solution--------------------
If PHP can develop the CS program, it is estimated to have a spell with Java.
