But thats the point, why we all code PHP, or? Dislikement to Java. Or do you just prefer PHP because its free? I think better OO-features will be quite great to improof PHP. I agree with you article about "refactoring otherones code". But a main point which makes me flaming Java is that Java forces me to make things like Java wants me to do and PHP let me do things like i'd like to do them. > And btw, knowing the "Java way" has helped me to improve my PHP-OO > skills massively in the past. So having a closer look at Java isn't a > bad thing at all. I tried using Java a couple of times but I never understood, what Java should make only 1 point better than PHP. Summerize all advantages of both languages. IMHO PHP wins the contest by miles... OO-Features are pretty cool. But do not force people about using them. I know pretty many developers that like procedural coding much more than OO.
