ha·bar·i - noun
Definition - Swahili greetings: What's the news?
The Habari project supports the GoPHP5 initiative. Habari has made PHP5 a fundamental requirement from the very beginning. We are eager to see PHP5 gain the widespread adoption that PHP4 has had, and look forward to PHP5 being available on major hosting providers.
We make strong use of the advanced object-oriented nature of PHP5 throughout Habari. From the magic
__autoload(),
__get(), and
__set()methods, to true singleton design patterns through the use of private scope, to PHP Data Objects, the new features of PHP5 are used for Habari to increase functionality while deceasing code complexity. To implement Habari using PHP4 would have required substantial amounts of duplicated code, whereas PHP5 provides the robust foundation necessary for us to focus on our application logic.
