Filtering with Annotations

PHP does not have native Annotations support, however many projects have been using doc blocks to add value and semantics to code, like PHPUnit, Doctrine and Symfony.

The Doctrine did a really good job in making available a Annotation parser kit, which allows you to bring the power of annotations into you own project.

This opens up a few possibilities.

The first one is the design of the data layer. The second one is input validation."

Continuing on with their look at the PRADO framework, PHPBuilder.com has published this new tutorial about adding in custom components to a PRADO-based application.
