You want a vision? Here is one - make the mess we have at the moment work.
I write in php for the better part of 4 years now and hate it every day. And I have written in c++ before that. Ask 20000 developers what are their main pain grievances sort them by "popularity" and just remove them one by one.
For me it is the hard debugging, the include mess and the "extremely" creative ways parsing and runtime errors are communicated to the developers.
- jtreminio 14y agoYou seriously find PHP hard to debug? I wrote something that may help you : http://jtreminio.com/2012/07/xdebug-and-you-why-you-should-be-using-a-real-debugger http://jtreminio.com/2012/07/xdebug-and-you-why-you-should-b... Thanks to namespaces, PSR-0 and Composer, I no longer have to worry about "include mess". Use an autoloader, that's what it's for. If you're finding you have to include a file to access information in it, that tells me you're not testing your code. The only error I've run across that gave me pause, for a second, was the T PAAMAYIM NEKUDOTAYIM. A quick, 5 second Google search gave me the information I needed.

- phatbyte 14y agoIt's not hard at all, I even created an Xdebug client for OSX to simplify this, www.codebugapp.com
