-Things to do or at least think about doing in the future. Name in
-parenthesis means that person has taken on this project.

-Zend
-----
- For PHP 4.3.0:
- * Allow foreach ($array as $k => &$val) syntax. right now we cannot
- traverse an array without copying each element.
- * Allow foreach ($array as $k => list($a, $b)) syntax for multi
- dimensional arrays.
- * Look at replacing c-lib call tolower().
- * Make hash API functions work with HASH_OF() to save time.
- * Allow to set a default value for call-by-reference-parameters.
- eg: function hello (&$pallo = NULL) {}
- * Disallow function(method) redefinition in class.
- * Add configure test to determine if dlsym() requires underscore and set
- DLSYM_NEEDS_UNDERSCORE accordingly. Perl and zsh have it in configure,
- for example. (DONE?)
-
- For PHP 5.0.0:
- * Native large number support (probably with GNU GMP)
- * Const'ify APIs. Right now, many functions leave parameters untouched,
- but don't declare those as const. This makes interaction with other
- interfaces difficult which pass const parameters to us.
- * Add try..catch/throw exception handling.
- * Fix Zend shallow copy issues with objects and arrays.
-
-
-global
-------
- For PHP 4.3.0:
- * Add aliases to functions to conform to new naming conventions, e.g.
- str_to_upper().
- * Make all extensions thread-safe.
- * Make everything on the language-level independent of your locale
- settings.
- * Change PHP error messages, so that they point to pages or sections
- in the PHP Manual.
- * 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
- dependencies. (eg ftp) (DONE?)
- * on some platforms unimplemented function will just do nothing
- (e.g. symlink) they should print a warning or not even be defined!
- (DONE ?)
- * Use arg_separator.input to implode args in the CGI sapi extension
- and arg_separator.input to explode in php_build_argv(). (DONE?)
- * Change the odbc_fetch_into() function to require ALWAYS the first two
- parameters ($conn_id and $array), and make the third (row) be optional.
- * Remove --with-openlink configure option (--with-iodbc replaces it).
- * Implement flush feature suitable for nested output buffers.
-
- For PHP 5.0.0
- * bundle and use curl lib for fopen wrapper.
- * --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
- reentrancy-safe functions (DONE?).
- * make SAPI conform to CGI/1.1. Currently, all SAPI modules
- define REMOTE_ADDR etc. themselves and reach only various level
- of compliance.
- * see what functions might need to be changed to use HashPosition, so
- that the internal array pointer is not affected.
- * Move most extensions and PEAR packages out of the PHP CVS tree,
- include them again during release packaging.
-
-
- Other
- * use thread-safe resolver functions (either require BIND 8 or adns).
- * implement javadoc based function docs template system.
- * provide optional IPv6 support.
- * find a better way to implement script timeouts. SIGVTALRM is used
- by some POSIX threads implementations (i.e. OpenBSD) and is not
- available in ZTS mode.
-
-
-documentation
--------------
- * Add remarks in the documentation which functions are not implemented
- on win32.
- * Add remarks in the documentation which functions are not binary-safe.
- * Update curl documentation (DONE?)
- * Add developer documentation.
- * Add detailed documentation for Java extension.
-
-ext/curl
---------
- * Have a warning scheme for when people use unsupported features.
-
-ext/oci8
---------
- * All OCIFetch*() functions should return 0 for no more data and false on
- error.
- * Have a flag that trims trailing spaces from CHAR fields on retrieval.
- * Make allow_call_time_pass_reference=Off working.
- * For additional todo information, see oci8.c, in ext/oci8
-
-ext/pcre
---------
- * Allow user to set PCRE_NOTEMPTY, PCRE_ANCHORED at execution time, maybe
-
-ext/pgsql
----------
- For PHP 4.3.0:
- * Add pg_metadata() with metadata cache feature.
- * Add pg_convert() to check and convert array value for query.
- * Add pg_insert/pg_update/pg_delete/pg_select for simple query.
-
-ext/session
------------
- For PHP 4.3.0:
- * session_abort() to abort session. ie: Do not save session data.
- * Allow unset($_SESSION) or unset($HTTP_SESSION_VARS) to unset
- session vars regardless of register_globals setting.
-
- Other:
- * Maybe implement finer-grained session variables that could be
- locked individually.
- * Write a network-transparent storage back-end with fallover
- facilities
- * Provide a callback facility which is executed upon encountering
- an unknown class name during deserialization
-
-ext/sockets
------------
- * Make the extension work on windows (Daniel Beulshausen)
- * Make the extension work with Solaris and the Sun GCC
-
-ext/standard
-------------
- * Add a version number to data serialized via serialize().
- * Possibly modify parsing of GPC data to automatically create arrays if
- variable name is seen more than once.
- * Implement regex-cache for url-functions.
- * stri_replace(). (Andrei)
- * Move socket related functions to fsock.c.
- * NOT binary safe:
- strtok()
- basename()
- dirname()
- strrpos()
- strrchr()
- strip_tags()
- * Rewrite win32 SMTP code to be usable for *ix to, maybe as a (default)
- module of its own (Hartmut)
-
-ext/wddx
---------
- * See if we can support the remaining data types:
- dateTime
- binary
-
- http://www.wddx.org/WDDX_SDK_10a/7__References/WDDX_DTD.htm
- (Andrei)
-
- * implement wddx_packet_as_javascript(). (Andrei)
-
-other cool stuff
