Hi,
I newly subscribed to this ML after some time I didn't follow it, so I
beg pardon if I'm posting a question that was already discussed.
As you know, a few days ago PHP 4.4.1 was released. As current admin of
a widely used PHP project called phpAdsNew, I discovered just today that
there are compatibility problems with the latest PHP4 release. One of
our users preceded me and opened a bug report, which led to a prompt fix
by Ilia:
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=35067
( and its duplicate: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=35070 )
I think that many projects born with PHP3 still use a for loop instead
that foreach, that moreover doesn't fit all the situations where next(),
prev(), etc are used.
As you may see, the bug could cause many headaches to developers of open
source projects, which could be forced to write workarounds and release
a fix for a PHP bug.
That's why I'm asking: do you think to release 4.4.2 (or 4.4.1pl1 or
whatever ;) in the very near future? Or should I start writing
workarounds and release a PHP 4.4.1 compatible version?
P.S.
Of course, it's also my fault: I know I should have checked *before*,
but unfortunately my spare time is rather short and often I cannot
afford to do it in a timely manner.
Best regards
