function toCamelCase( $string )
{
return str_replace( ' ' , '', ucwords( strtolower( strtr($string, '_',
' ') ) ));
}
echo toCamelCase( 'this_is_not_properly_written' );
You can use this simplest function to translate a string to camelCase.
The process could be...
1) parse by PHP
2) translate tokens to camelCase
3) writte the file with changes
You can easily parse a php file using http://php.net/token_get_all
