PHP developers,
Are the requirements for PHP 6 set in stone?
I saw in the minutes from the Paris meeting that a 64bit integer has
been proposed. I am curious if it would make sense to allow integers to
be both signed and unsigned. For me personally, I would love to have
unsigned 64bit integers.
I have a task that requires bitflag operations. Having only 16 bits to
deal with is really bad (I only care about positive int). Having 32
positive bits in PHP 6 is certainly an improvement, but if I can get all
64, then live would be much better.
Uh, positive bits?
A bitfield is a bitfield. Signedness is irrelevant.
