php

there are plenty of frameworks for coding MVC web applications.

this time im going to code a library (think of Doctrine or Solr) with a bunch of class files. u just include a bootstrap or a class file and you are ready to use my classes.

i have never tried to code a library before and intend to code one for learning purpose so that i can use various design patterns i have learned.

are there any great frameworks for this, how i should organize the different class files, where i can put configuration files and so on?

tutorials or other information would be great too.

thanks

Do you need a good background in OOP before moving to frameworks?

Frameworks being all OOP, would it not be wise to go into frameworks without having a solid background in OOP? I can write basic classes but nothing too fancy or abstract. How much should I know of OOP before moving to frameworks? Right now I am PHP Object-Oriented Programming to learn OOP. >>> More
