Java to PHP Compiler
I had this crazy idea like some years ago.. I wasn't expecting it be factible, and there's still some semantic problems with this approach Anyways, the whole idea was to take some java source, generate an AST, and output it back as syntactically correct PHP. why? 50% fun + 50% exploration So I have this really basic compiler, which can roughly output its own code; what's still missing? - static vs instance detection (-> vs ::) - class' properties - method visibility - enums - inner types - annonymous classes - dealing with method overriding There's a huge gap in the semantic area (eg:…
