|
||
- Removed legacy features: | ||
. break/continue $var syntax. (Dmitry) | ||
. Safe mode and all related ini options. (Kalle) | ||
. register_globals and register_long_arrays ini options. (Kalle) | ||
. import_request_variables(). (Kalle) | ||

. y2k_compliance ini option. (Kalle) | ||

?? ??? 201?, PHP 5.5.0 | ||
|
||
- General improvements: | ||
. Added multibyte support by default. Previously php had to be compiled | ||
with --enable-zend-multibyte. Now it can be enabled or disabled through | ||
zend.multibyte directive in php.ini (Dmitry) | ||
. Removed compile time dependency from ext/mbstring (Dmitry) | ||
. Added scalar typehints to the parser and the reflection API. (Ilia, Derick) | ||
. Added support for Traits. (Stefan) | ||
. Added closure $this support back. (Stas) | ||
. Added array dereferencing support. (Felipe) | ||
. Added support for object references in recursive serialize() calls. | ||
FR #36424. (Mike) | ||
. Added http_response_code() function. FR #52555. (Paul Dragoonis, Kalle) | ||
. Added header_register_callback() which is invoked immediately | ||
prior to the sending of headers and after default headers have | ||
been added. (Scott) | ||
. Added DTrace support. (David Soria Parra) | ||
. Improved output layer, see README.NEW-OUTPUT-API for internals. (Mike) | ||
. Improved unserialize() performance. | ||
(galaxy dot mipt at gmail dot com, Kalle) | ||
. Improved unix build system to allow building multiple PHP binary SAPIs and | ||
one SAPI module the same time. FR #53271, FR #52410. (Jani) | ||
. Added optional argument to debug_backtrace() and debug_print_backtrace() | ||
to limit the amount of stack frames returned. (Sebastian, Patrick) | ||
|
||
- Improved Zend Engine memory usage: (Dmitry) | ||
. Replaced zend_function.pass_rest_by_reference by | ||
ZEND_ACC_PASS_REST_BY_REFERENCE in zend_function.fn_flags. | ||
. Replaced zend_function.return_reference by ZEND_ACC_RETURN_REFERENCE | ||
in zend_function.fn_flags. | ||
. Removed zend_arg_info.required_num_args as it was only needed for internal | ||
functions. Now the first arg_info for internal functions (which has special | ||
meaning) is represented by zend_internal_function_info structure. | ||
. Moved zend_op_array.size, size_var, size_literal, current_brk_cont, | ||
backpatch_count into CG(context) as they are used only during compilation. | ||
. Moved zend_op_array.start_op into EG(start_op) as it's used only for | ||
'interactive' execution of single top-level op-array. | ||
. Replaced zend_op_array.done_pass_two by ZEND_ACC_DONE_PASS_TWO in | ||
zend_op_array.fn_flags. | ||
. op_array.vars array is trimmed (reallocated) during pass_two. | ||
. Replaced zend_class_entry.constants_updated by ZEND_ACC_CONSTANTS_UPDATED | ||
in zend_class_entry.ce_flags. | ||
. Reduced the size of zend_class_entry by sharing the same memory space | ||
by different information for internal and user classes. | ||
See zend_class_entry.info union. | ||
. Reduced size of temp_variable. | ||
|
||
- Changed the structure of op_array.opcodes. The constant values are moved from | ||
opcode operands into a separate literal table. (Dmitry) | ||
|
||
- Improved Zend Engine, performance tweaks and optimizations: (Dmitry) | ||
. Inlined most probable code-paths for arithmetic operations directly into | ||
executor | ||
. Eliminated unnecessary iterations during request startup/shutdown. | ||
. Changed $GLOBALS into a JIT autoglobal, so it's initialized only if used. | ||
(this may affect opcode caches!) | ||
. Improved performance of @ (silence) operator. | ||
. Simplified string offset reading. $str[1][0] is now a legal construct. | ||
. Added caches to eliminate repeatable run-time bindings of functions, | ||
classes, constants, methods and properties. | ||
. Added concept of interned strings. All strings constants known at compile | ||
time are allocated in a single copy and never changed. | ||
. Added an optimization which saves memory and emalloc/efree calls for empty | ||
HashTables. (Stas, Dmitry) | ||
. ZEND_RECV now always has IS_CV as its result. | ||
. ZEND_CATCH now has to be used only with constant class names. | ||
. ZEND_FETCH_DIM_? may fetch array and dimension operands in different order. | ||
. Simplified ZEND_FETCH_*_R operations. They can't be used with the | ||
EXT_TYPE_UNUSED flag any more. This is a very rare and useless case. | ||
ZEND_FREE might be required after them instead. | ||
. Split ZEND_RETURN into two new instructions ZEND_RETURN and | ||
ZEND_RETURN_BY_REF. | ||
. Optimized access to global constants using values with pre-calculated | ||
hash_values from the literals table. | ||
. Optimized access to static properties using executor specialization. | ||
A constant class name may be used as a direct operand of ZEND_FETCH_* | ||
instruction without previous ZEND_FETCH_CLASS. | ||
. zend_stack and zend_ptr_stack allocation is delayed until actual usage. | ||
|
||
- Improved CLI SAPI: (Johannes) | ||
. Added command line option --rz <name> which shows information of the | ||
named Zend extension. | ||
. Interactive readline shell improvements: | ||
. Added "cli.pager" php.ini setting to set a pager for output. | ||
. Added "cli.prompt" php.ini setting to configure the shell prompt. | ||
. Added shortcut #inisetting=value to change ini settings at run-time. | ||
. Changed shell not to terminate on fatal errors. | ||
. Interactive shell works with shared readline extension. FR #53878. | ||
|
||
- Improved FastCGI SAPI: (Dmitry) | ||
. Added apache compatible functions: apache_child_terminate(), | ||
getallheaders(), apache_request_headers() and apache_response_headers() | ||
. Improved performance of FastCGI request parsing. | ||
|
||
- Improved core functions: | ||
. number_format() no longer truncates multibyte decimal points and thousand | ||
separators to the first byte. FR #53457. (Adam) | ||
|
||
- Improved CURL extension: | ||
. Added support for CURLOPT_MAX_RECV_SPEED_LARGE and | ||
CURLOPT_MAX_SEND_SPEED_LARGE. FR #51815. (Pierrick) | ||
|
||
- Improved Date extension: | ||
. Added the + modifier to parseFromFormat to allow trailing text in the | ||
string to parse without throwing an error. (Stas, Derick) | ||
|
||

. Added Tokyo Cabinet abstract DB support. (Michael Maclean) | ||
. Added Berkeley DB 5 support. (Johannes, Chris Jones) | ||
|

FR #53407. (Adam) | ||
|
||

. Added Jenkins's one-at-a-time hash support. (Martin Jansen) | ||
. Added FNV-1 hash support. (Michael Maclean) | ||

numeric strings to integers. (Ilia) | ||
. Added new json_encode() option JSON_PRETTY_PRINT. FR #44331. (Adam) | ||
