Japha is an effort to implement the major functionality of the Java library in PHP. The functionality captured in the JPI includes I/O, utility classes such as data structures, Web service architecture, and reflection classes, lang classes for implementing a standardized API, bean classes for creating a standard bean implementation, SQL classes for database persistence (via the Web service architecture), and database abstraction as well as Object-Relational mapping, networking functionality, and even some complex math.
