CodeGear announced recently Delphi for PHP, Visual RAD IDE for the PHP developers, a new tool that might change the way how PHP developers conceive their web applications. We have contacted Tim Jarvis; Product Evangelist, Team Leader, Asia Pacific at CodeGear; to ask about their very new product which will be available very soon in March :
AJAX Magazine: Why do PHP developers need a visual RAD? After all for many years everyone was working without
Tim: It's very easy not to miss something that you never had, prior to Delphi 1 Turbo Pascal programmers also didn't have a visual RAD environment, look how Delphi 1 changed the face of Pascal programming forever, I foresee the same with Delphi for PHP.
AJAX Magazine: Can you tell more about AJAX support in Delphi for PHP?
Tim: We currently provide 2 AJAX mechanisms, xajax and qooxdoo, VCL for PHP components support JavaScript client side events, this is where you would make your Ajax calls and place your dynamic client side script. There will be some example webcast presentations of this in action very soon.
