Name in -parenthesis means that person has taken on this project. - -Zend ----- - * 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. - * 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. - - -global ------- - * Make sure that all ZTS globals get destructed. Most ts_allocate_id() - calls should have a dtor entry. - * on some platforms unimplemented function will just do nothing - (e.g. symlink) they should print a warning or not even be defined! - (DONE ?) - * --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 (seems to be done?). - * 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. - * Implement flush feature suitable for nested output buffers. - -Streams -------- - * Route filestat.c through the wrapper layer; isolate the statcache code - so that it is independent of php functions and can be applied to any - stream/path. - * Implement generalized connection pool for stated protocols such as - ftp and http/1.1 (using keep-alive) to avoid having to negotiate - new command/request stream for each subsequent call; Possibly store - resources in contexts (creating a default context if necessary) to - allow segmentation of connection pools. - * Add a method to take ownership of the memory buffer in memory streams so - that generating string values for zvals doesn't require an estrdup. - * bundle and use curl lib for fopen wrapper. - -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/odbc --------- - For PHP 4.3.0: - * update all php_error calls to php_error_docref where valid - * integrate EXPERIMENTAL ODBC update for use in PHP 5.0, use for - testing purposes only. - - For PHP 5.0.0 - * Activate EXPERIMENTAL ODBC codebase update - -ext/pcre --------- - * Allow user to set PCRE_NOTEMPTY, PCRE_ANCHORED at execution time, maybe - -ext/pcntl ---------- - * Change internal callback handler to use TICKS - * Remove all zend_extension code - * Add object callback support to pcntl_signal() - -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/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. - * Move socket related functions to fsock.c. - -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().
