I have been on a Linux tear the last couple of weeks.
If you want to look running multiple virtual Linux instances/versions on your Linux box, check out User-mode Linux.
Been getting familiar with it, and having fun setting it up and experimenting.
My time in Linux land led me to research more on LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP, Python, Perl).
Since I already know the L, A,
400
and M, I decided to get more familiar with the P's, starting with PHP.
After reading the PHP Scalability Myth article, my interest in PHP was sparked.
I had downloaded it before and messed around with setting it up, but never really done anything else past that.
Following the directions provided here I was able to integrate PHP and Apache into my current Tomcat, MySQL setup on Win2k3.
Of course being an Eclipse user I wondered if there was a PHP plugin for Eclipse.
And yes there is, over at PHPEclipse you can get a PHP editor plugin for Eclipse that also has neat features like allowing you to start and stop MySQL and Apache and preview your PHP pages inside Eclipse.
Some interesting projects related to MVC/Struts comming out of the PHP community are Phrame, Smarty, ADOdb, PEAR and php.MVC.
This article over at php | architect on Industrial Strength MVC demonstrates an MVC app in PHP using Phrame, Smarty and ADOdb.
