Beyond OOP: Developing PHP Extensions ... in PHP!
summary
Shows how to extend PHP itself by writing extensions in PHP: examines PHP’s internals to see what extension points exist and then demonstrates building features (immutable objects, generics-like patterns, operator overloading) implemented as PHP extensions written in plain PHP. Uses concrete techniques for adding language-level behaviors without waiting for new PHP versions.
