You've got it backwards. 
Please see the JSR 223 API spec and the Swing example. You can start Java with:

 jrunscript -p php-interactive 

and invoke php/gtk from Java.


> In my opinion, php is a powerfull language 

Sorry, but this is nonsense.

PHP is a language suited for the web. A PHP script cannot run for more than 30 seconds. If it does, one may receive out of memory problems because some objects cannot be reclaimed.

Furthermore the PHP/Java Bridge protocol assumes that a PHP script does not allocate more than 2^32 handles. Even the fastest computer cannot exceed this limit within 30 seconds. Bear in mind that the HTTP server and the web browser have similar limits.


> didn't know that python and scheme have their own GUI

They use Java's Swing or other toolkits.
