Class: Friendly class Picture of Rubens Takiguti Ribeiro
Description: Provide friend access to protected functions
Author: Rubens Takiguti Ribeiro
Age: 24
Country: Brazil Brazil
Comment: Certain packages consist of multiple classes that are used in cooperation. Such classes usually need to access each other protected variables or functions.

In other languages there are friend classes like in C++ or package classes like in Java that allow restricting the access to variables of functions to cooperating classes.

Even with the enhancements of version 5 object model, there is no PHP support to this concept similar to C++ friend or Java package classes.

This class provides an emulation of such concept that works under PHP 5.

Class: PAX Picture of Marius Zadara
Description: Interpret XML command scripts with PHP classes
Author: Marius Zadara
Age: 26
Country: Romania Romania
Comment: Sometimes you need create a scripting language to control a complex application.

Creating a language from scratch is hard because you need to develop an engine that is able to parse and process the language commands.

XML is a format that is easy to parse, and so it can be used as an alternative to create new file formats or languages that are easy to parse.

This class implements a scripting engine using XML based source code. The scripting engine can be extended with new commands that are processed by new custom PHP classes.
