A few years ago I wrote a few large apps for which I had to write my own code that generated code to speed up the process:)
After going through that experience and making the decision to migrate to PHP I was not to rewrite my tools to write code all over again, so I started looking for PHP frameworks that were similar to the tools I had written on the other language.
Achievo Toolkit (ATK) from http://www.achievo.org/atkhttp://www.achievo.org/atk came very close to what I was looking for and I haven't seen anything like it, yet.
I make my framework decisions based on usability, efficiency, learning curve and not based on hype. In my opinion, hype, does not always translates into great quality.
