Hello, I’m considering adding some C++ enhancements to the Zend API. These changes would be encapsulated within `#ifdef __cplusplus` guards, so they wouldn’t interfere with the existing C implementation. The primary goal is to provide a nicer interface for extensions while maintaining compatibility with C.
Key points: - **Struct-based Approach:** Everything will still use structs—no classes or non-public/non-static members. - **Isolation:** Any enhancements that can be isolated from the C implementation will be, and they will reside in a common `zend_api_cxx` header file. - **Proposed Enhancements:** - Constructors and destructors, along with comparison operator overloads for `zval`. - Constructor overloads for common `zval` initializations. - Member methods for common `zval` operations. I’m happy to implement and maintain these changes. Since this doesn’t affect userland, do you think an RFC is necessary? Also, if anyone has suggestions or ideas for this C++ API, I’d love to hear them. Cheers, Lanre
