Topic: PHP to ROC


view this post on Zulip Gottfried Zojer (Aug 03 2025 at 03:13):

Hello to every one,

Just found a lovely project on gitlab I like to work with but it also shows PHP14.4%
So I m just wondering if someone ever thought of replacing php code with ROC
Sorry dont know anything about PHP apart from a Frontend developer friend who worked with it.
Even if myself only talking with him about JS/ Clojurescript

Best regards

Gottfried

Hi @Gottfried Zojer,
I don't recall any projects that converted from php to Roc but it seems like that should work fine. Depending on how the php is used exactly, one of these projects will be best suited:

@Anton Anton

Thanks for your answer and I will review your links
As I never worked with PHP I m not even sure if any "conversion" is even a good idea
Just want to point out the project I was talking about
https://git.kolibrios.org/KolibriOS/kolibrios64 and I was just wondering how to replace with PHP 14.4% with ROC

Best regards

I have taken a look at the repo and it does not actually contain php code, there was a misclassification because they use the *.inc extension which is used by php, but they use it here to for files to be included in an asm file.

@Anton Anton,

Thanks for your answer and I m afraid I did not look at repo in detail
Only did a VirtualBox install of KolibriOS and it worked well
And also tried to find my old notes about QNX I played around with in 2007ish to compare
And concerning PHP its even better as I dont know it at all

Best regards

Gottfried
