- Added ZEND_INI_SCANNER_TYPED mode for parse_ini_string() and parse_ini_file()
- Added NULL_NULL token to separate it from BOOL_FALSE and BOOL_TRUE
- Added zend_ini_copy_typed_value() function for zval initialisation
- Updated RETURN_TOKEN() to observe scanner_mode
CGI/FastCGI.
- Added support for special [PATH=/opt/httpd/www.example.com/] sections
in php.ini. All directives set in these sections will not be able to be
overridden in user-defined ini-files or during runtime in the specified
path.
- Improved php.ini handling:
. Added better error reporting for syntax errors in php.ini files
. Allowed "ini-variables" to be used almost everywhere ini php.ini files
. Allowed using alphanumeric/variable indexes in "array" ini options
. Fixed get_cfg_var() to be able to return "array" ini options
- Fixed bug #27372 (parse error loading browscap.ini at apache startup)
- Fixed bug #42069 (parse_ini_file() allows using some non-alpha numeric
characters)
@DOC Pierre promised to handle the manual part of this :D
