funny then that I see here serious people discussing the benefit of shortening code and cutting out commends. maby thats a general problem of our society that everybody think higher cheaper faster. this will have a limit guys !!! u can not go smaler then an atom. funny as well that I make my main money in optimizing code to speed and low server resources. Im one of the old guys who can do both hardware and software and I'm telling u this is suspect to me. I still can build a computer from board and powersupply upward. looks like that u joung guys got a little dream implementet by ur profs. Did u know that the industry is complaining that the engeneers coming from the universities are useless for business? a big complain! the real world is different. Hosting companies will always try to keep a server machine as long as they can, because a paid server DOES MAKE MONEY. so where is then the cheap and fast server. how many servers out there still running on PHP4? have u thouhgt about? again, design pattern make sence, but on a companies policy base or on a medium upwards sized project. but there will be more languages be involved in one company it would be much better to use a language independent tool. again this is chasing mice with an elephant ralph_deffke@xxxxxxxx "Nathan Nobbe" <quickshiftin@xxxxxxxxx> wrote in message news:7dd2dc0b0908130809p456de5e7g35641de69af14c1a@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > On Thu, Aug 13, 2009 at 8:09 AM, Ralph Deffke <ralph_deffke@xxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > Thanks Jaime, > > > > very nice, but I'm a programmer since 1982 and into OOP since 1988 with the > > outcome if IBM's C++ compiler on the OS2 platform. > > > > Don't u think it could be reasonable to ask if such an overhead IN PHP is > > necessary? > > > > does anybody agree that PHP might be the wrong language to accomplish such > > a > > designpattern.
