Tell me something, how many people write OOP code in PHP in the first
place?
Even really "pro" application developers would tend to write a PHP
extension (in C++) which is all proper OOP and then simply use it in
PHP (ie.,. the extension will give a C++ based OOP interface to the
PHP layer). PHP can be a very good "bridge" between a real application
(C++ based PHP module) and the web server. Writing everything in PHP
is an overkill. Others' views may differ, though.
