Things to do or at least think about doing in the future. Name in
parenthesis means that person has taken on this project.
global
------
* let every module (source-file) have it's own module & function_entry
block. Right now the math functions are in math.c but the corresponding
function-entries are in basic_functions.
* make sure that all ZTS globals get destructed. Most ts_allocate_id()
calls should have a dtor entry.
* activate all extensions by default that don't rely on external
dependices. (eg ftp)
* --enable-all in configure. (--enable-shared=max ...)
* make configure print out a summary when it's done (like XEmacs)
* replace standard functions which work on static data with
reentrant-save functions
* there is only one current directory per process; to make
chdir() etc. thread-safe, we must introduce a per-thread
current directory
* on some platforms unimplemented function will just do nothing (eg symlink)
they should print a warning or be not even defined!
* banish the legacy of php3_ prefixes
* implement javadoc based function docs template system
* use thread-safe resolver functions (either require BIND 8 or adns)
* provide optional IPv6 support
* make SAPI conform to CGI/1.1. Currently, all SAPI modules
define REMOTE_ADDR etc. themselves and reach only various level
of compliance.
documentation
-------------
* add remarks in the documentation which functions are not implemented on win32.
* add remarks in the documentation which functions are not binary-safe.
ext/wddx
--------
* implement wddx_packet_as_javascript(). (Andrei)
ext/apache
--------
* all apache specific functions should be in sapi/apache
ext/oci8
--------
* map boolean value false to oracle NULL.
* all OCIFetch*() functions should return 0 for no more data and false on error.
ext/standard
------------
* strpad() (Andrei)
* comparing arrays semantically (like Python) (Andrei)
* NOT binary safe:
strtok()
basename()
dirname()
strrpos()
strrchr()
strip_tags()
