||
- If you don't specify building any other SAPI "make install" will install the

|

- Fixed bug #13936 (__FILE__ constant didn't contain full path). (Ilia)
|
||
- PHP now has a new stream system that allows it to do some clever stuff with
|
||
fopen() and fsockopen(). As a result:
|
||
. URL wrappers natively supports https:// URLs if you have compiled
|
||
OpenSSL support into PHP (shared extension does not support this).
|
||
. Added support for fopen("ftps://...", ...) which allows to connect to FTP
|
||
servers via SSL. (Stefan Esser)
|
||
. fsockopen() adds support for ssl:// and tls:// connections via TCP/IP
|
||
. copy($srcfilename, $destfilename) can now be used with URL wrappers
|
||
. zlib wrappers/streams can be used even on systems without fopencookie()
|
||
. Changed 'zlib:' fopen wrapper to 'compress.zlib://' and deprecate
|
||
'zlib:' to avoid ambiguities when filenames have ':' characters. (Wez)
|
||
. Added 'compress.bzip2://' stream and wrapper support.
|
||
. Added user-space streams - it is now possible to define a class in PHP
|
||
code and register it as a URL wrapper. (stream_register_wrapper)
|
||
. Most extensions now support streams when passing files, which means
|
||
that those extensions will now also support URL wrappers. (Wez)
|
||
. Added URL-wrapper support to exif. (Marcus)
|
||
. Added memory stream support. (Marcus)
|
||
. Renamed:
|
||
socket_set_timeout() -> stream_set_timeout()
|
||
socket_set_blocking() -> stream_set_blocking()
|
||
set_file_buffer() -> stream_set_write_buffer()
|
||
socket_get_status() -> stream_get_meta_data()
|
||
As these functions can (in theory) work on any type of stream. (Wez)
|
||
. Raw POST data is now available as "php://input" stream. (Hartmut)
|
||
. fopen("php://output", "wb") returns a stream that writes to the output
|
||
buffer (like echo and print). (Wez)
|
||
. Added stream_context_create(), stream_context_set_params() and
|
||
stream_context_set_option and added an optional fourth parameter to
|
||
fopen() which accepts a stream context. Contexts allow sharing of
|
||
information between streams (a kind of "session") and setting
|
||
notification callbacks. (Wez)
|
||
. Made the "User-Agent" header sent by http:// and https:// wrappers
|
||
configurable in php.ini or via a stream context. (Sterling)
|
||
. Added stream_filter_prepend() and stream_filter_append() which apply
|
||
a filter to either the top or the bottom of a stream filter stack.
|
||
Implemented "string.rot13" filter as an example; more filters are
|
||
expected to follow in later releases and other extensions. (Wez)
|
||
. Added stream_select() which works like socket_select but works on
|
||
streams returned by fopen(), fsockopen() and pfsockopen() instead. (Wez)
|
||
. Added STDIN, STDOUT and STDERR constants for CLI sapi reflecting opened
|
||
streams to their respective standard I/O counterparts. (Edin)
|
||
. Added php.ini option "auto_detect_line_endings" which enables PHP to
|
||
detect Macintosh, Unix and Dos end-of-line characters in fgets() and
|
||
file(). Fixes bugs #16521 and #16708. (Wez)
|
||
. Fixed include(), require() and GD functions to work with remote files
|
||
under win32.
|
||
Fixed bug #18609 (ImageCreateFromJPEG can't fetch from a URL). (Wez)
|
||
- Fixed bug #18022 (fopen does not work with php://stdin anymore on Solaris).
|
||
(Wez)
|
||
- Added php.ini option "default_socket_timeout" to set the timeout limit for
|
||
PHP network streams. (kalowsky, ilia@prohost.org, Wez)
|
||
- Added file_get_contents() which returns the contents of a file as a string.
|
||
This function also supports the URL wrappers. (Wez)
|
||
- Fixed bug #19595 (Missing functions for GD2 format handling). (Edin)
|
||
- Fixed bug #19633 (Wrong directories in ext/ldap/config.m4). (Derick)
|
||

||

|
||

|
||
using a statement like $w = $e = array($sock); This change unfortunately
|
||
prevents the use of constant values (e.g. NULL) for the socket array
|
||
paramaters. Instead, use a temporary variable or an expression with the
|
||
leftmost member being a temporary variable. ex.:
|
||
socket_select($w, $r, $e = NULL, 10); (Jason)
|
||
- Fixed crashes in the session serializer. (Stas)

||
(Alan, Harald)

|
||
option which executes a piece of PHP code directly from the commmand line, etc.
|
||

||
. Added socket_set_block() which changes a socket into blocking IO mode
|
||
. Modified socket_last_error() to not clear the last error
|
||

|
||
. Removed all code pertaining to fd_sets (socket_fd_*)

. Modified/Improved socket_select() to accept array of resources instead of
|
||
fd_sets. example:
|
||
<?php
|
||
$wfds=$rfds=array($sock1, $sock2, $sock3, $sock7);
|
||
$r=socket_select($rfds, $wfds, NULL, 1);

|
||
(breaks BC but makes more sense)
|
||
. Does not include functions in symbol table which aren't supported on host
|
||
system.

|
||
be deleted until script finishes. (Yasuo)

|
||
member variables, that contained array values. (Andi & Zeev, Zend Engine)
|
||

|
||
- Clean up constants in flock() function and add optional 3rd arg which
|
||
is set to true on EWOULDBLOCK (Rasmus)

|
||

|
||

|
||
on-the-fly (Zeev, Zend Engine)
|
||
- Added support for comparisons of arrays (with arrays) and objects (with
|
||
objects); The equality operator (==) performs an unordered comparison,
|
||
whereas the identity operator (===) performs an ordered comparison (Zeev,
|
||
Zend Engine)
|
||
- Allow all functions that receive user-defined function callbacks to accept
|
||
an array that contains an object and a method name, in place of a function
|
||
name, e.g. usort($array, array($obj, "ObjSort")) (Zeev, Zend Engine)
|
||
- Added set_error_handler() to allow custom error handling functions,
|
||
instead of the built-in error handling code (Zeev, Zend Engine)
|
||
- Renamed user_error() to trigger_error(); user_error() remains
|
||
defined for compatibility (Zeev, Zend Engine)
|
||
- Fixed the global/static statements to require a trailing terminating
|
||
semi-colon ';'. (Andi, Zend Engine)
|
||

|
||
certain functions for security reasons (Zeev)
|
||
- Fixed sessions on Win32. When setting the directory depth parameter in
|
||
save_path you need to now delimit it with a ';' instead of ':', e.g
|
||
"5;/tmp" instead of "5:/tmp" (Andi)
|
||
- Changed the Apache handler's return status to 'Declined' when a requested
|
||
PHP file could not be found. Returning 'Not Found' caused problems
|
||
in the ErrorDocument handler stage in that $REDIRECT_REDIRECT_ERROR_NOTES
|
||
was not getting set at all. Moving to 'Declined' should fix this and I
|
||
can't see any other side effects. (Rasmus)
|
||
- Fixed scanning decimal numbers in internationalized environments. They should
|
||
always be in standard US format e.g. 23.3. (Andi, Zend Engine)
|
||
- Added second argument to preg_quote() which allows quoting of
|
||
one additional character, usually the regex delimiter. (Andrei)
|

|
||
before the connection is closed. (Thies)

|
||

|
||
cameras will embed all sorts of information about a picture inside the
|
||
jpeg images it generates. (Rasmus)
|
||

|
||
as "/path/file.ext///" (Rasmus)
|
||
