php extension for Google's v8 javascript engine 

Requires php 5.3+ and libv8 <http://code.google.com/p/v8/>

-Highly experimental-


NOTES
-----

The v8 javascript engine is not natively thread safe. 
This extension does not work around it (at least for now).
Please use a single threaded sapi (CLI, fastcgi, fpm..)


INTERFACE
---------

The extension interface has been refactored to make it more similar
to the spidermonkey PECL extension <http://pecl.php.net/package/spidermonkey>

class V8Context {

  // php types for V8Context::set()
  const PHP_VALUE   = 0;
  const PHP_FUNCTION= 1;
  const PHP_CLASS   = 2;

  bool  function set($var_name, $value [, $type = V8Context::PHP_VALUE]);

  mixed function get($var_name);

  bool  function exists($var_name);

  bool  function unset($var_name);

  // evals the js code and returns the result
  mixed function run($js_code);

  // same as set($js_name, $callable, V8Context::PHP_FUNCTION)
  bool registerFunction($callable [, $js_name]);

  // same as set($js_name, $class_name, V8Context::PHP_CLASS)
  bool registerClass($class_name [, $js_name]);
}
