Delphi
®
for PHP revolutionizes web development with a
completely integrated visual Rapid Application Development
(RAD) approach and framework for PHP. Delphi for PHP
provides a powerful editor, debugger, visual development tools,
out of the box connectivity with MySQL and InterBase
®
, and an
integrated VCL for PHP reusable component class library. Delphi
for PHP is the fast and easy way to build powerful and reliable
PHP web applications.
Delphi for PHP utilizes an integrated PHP 5 class library
called VCL for PHP. VCL for PHP components appear on the
Component Palette and include buttons, labels, check boxes,
images, DHTML, menus, data access components, flash
objects, and more. The VCL for PHP makes it simple for you
to develop new classes, because every component is built in
pure PHP. Simply place the components into forms and use them
in your applications. VCL for PHP components have built-in
properties, methods, and events that make web interface
development a snap.
