Creating Object-Oriented PHP Extensions

In this session, we will discuss how to build custom PHP extensions for Zend Engine 2.2.0 (PHP 5.2.x) and Zend Engine 2.3.0 (PHP 5.3.x) with emphasis on how to create objects, register class constants, object properties, inheritance, interface implementation, visibility etc.

The beginning part will introduce the PHP request life cycle and the anatomy of a $variable then we will proceed to the more advance stuff.

Having some background knowledge of the anatomy of a PHP request life cycle and a PHP extension can help a PHP developer in understanding certain issues that arise during installation or use of a PHP extension or even the php language itself.

The presentation will also cover why a developer may want to create a PHP extension and what performance benefits are possible from writing the code in straight C instead of vanilla PHP.

We will then move into a tutorial format were we create some simple example php extensions to illustrate the items that have been covered.
