Hi,

The Java->PHP translator with included persistence layer has been released at http://www.NewOOP.com

Please try it out (but please make sure you have at least 1.4.2 of the Java Runtime Environment to execute the translator). You may download the JRE here: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html (it's around 8 MB for online installation to 14 MB for offline installation). In addition, your testing server must be running PHP5.

Currently, the plan is to let developers play around with it (however, the source to the translator is closed-source).

The persistence layer needs some redesigning, but it's working! Most Java code at this point should translate without error to PHP (including method overloading, packages/namespace, static methods).

I feel this project has the potential to dramatically reduce development time for maintainable, object-oriented web projects.

Thanks.

I'm going to try to get this to output for PHP4.

I think I will release this open-source soon... there's no way this will get adopted, and my time will become very limited after Sep 20
