Hi,

PHP now builds and works without ereg, is it planed to make it optional ?

It is planed to drop it so I suppose optional can be a first step. I
remember something about adding a BC layer using pcre, I'm not sure if
it is done yet. However I would not do it in 5.x.


I think Andrei was pondering doing such a BC layer for PHP6, but I dont think this has been done yet. I think there were still discussions about if its feasible at all. This also means that there were discussions about if to even drop it, but I think we agreed on dropping it in the end, so I guess using ereg should throw an E_DEPRECATED in 5.3?

I am not sure if we should make it optional in 5.3 though.
