File Extensions (Delphi and PHP Cross Reference Guide)

By Mike Prestwood

Delphi versus PHP: A side by side comparison between Delphi and PHP.

Tool Basics

Developer environment basics such as common file extensions, common keyboard shortcuts, etc.

File Extensions

[Other Languages]

Languages Focus

Common or primary file extensions used (not a complete list, just the basics).

Delphi:

Common source code file extensions include:

.BDSPROJ - Project, Borland Developer Studio project file holds compiler options, etc. This is the file you open.
.DCU - Delphi Compiled Unit file.
.DFM - Delphi Win32 form file (a text resource file).
.DPR - Delphi project file. Primary project "source" file.
.PAS - Delphi unit source file.

Note: Delphi 2009 changed the project file to acommadatte new features. When you open a project file from a previous version, it will be upgraded. In addition to .bdsproj, D2009 also uses a .dproj project file.

Delphi File Extensions

PHP: .php

.php is the default extension for PHP although some developers will change the default extension in an effort to add an additional security level. If your code is tied to a particular version of PHP then some developers at the major PHP version number to the extension as in .php3, .php4, .php5, etc.

.phtml is also sometimes used especially for files that contain both HTML and Perl code.
