Happy to introduce the latest release of PeachPie - the compiler for PHP to .NET - version 1.1.10. This release includes significant improvements to our compatibility with WordPress, performance enhancements, and some additional C# interoperability features.
PHP is a dynamic language; this comes with advantages and disadvantages. In this article, we'll be focusing on PHP's need for declaring classes during run-time, over and over, the same classes for each request, and how this causes unnecessary overhead.
eventPHP syntax doesn't offer anything special for events. Most modern PHP libraries therefore implement something to provide such functionality. WordPress has its add_filter and Symfony/Laravel have event listeners.
In .NET/C#, we have event class members.
Imagine having all the C#/.NET objects readily available in your PHP code, including the entire .NET runtime. In this article, we'll take a glance at .NET threading, Tasks, and CLR debugging.
The project's development has been a lot slower over the last year or so compared to previous times. For a number of reasons, we made a decision to change how we provide the project to our community in order to keep it alive.
