Hey:
First of all, I don't want to make *that* thead longer...
as you can see, some devers says critically phpng is lacking of
document, and they make that as the main reason for them to against
phpng.
I have to say, in my opinion it's totally ridiculous.
1. how many devers in here really knows zend engine? how many
tried to know it?
I assume a little, as you can see, only a few activate zend
engine maintainers now. dmitry is the most experience one.
2. does PHP really has had a good API document?
no, when I first tried to write a extension, I found no
documents, or they was far beyond outdate, I event don't know how
config.m4 works..
I learn PHP by reading the codes, and the example under ext/*
3. is document really important for PHPng?
I don't think so, PHP can always read the codes, PHP is
opensource , it is not *MS* who need document to tell people what it
did in dark.
4. is PHPng API became more ugly? or harder to maintainable?
I feel really bad to see somebody said such things...
first of all. ugly, maintainable. it is too too subjective,
and to be honest, it's obviously biased attitude.
second, I , the main author of PHPNG, and Nikita, Dmitry,
are the most activate internal contributors now. so you are saying we
are writing ugly codes? I really can not agree with that.
actually, the zend_hash API become more clear, and beatifuy
than before.
maintainable? who is the main force to maintain the PHP
internal now? yes, the authors of PHPNG..
I think I have the more rights to say whether it is more
maintainer able or not.
and it's become more maintainable, because of more clean API
and more reasonable logics.
5. are we going to write docs?
yes, for people, who in love with PHP, who want to make PHP
extensions, we are glad to write some APIs (which will be enough in a
dever eye).
actually we already doing it: https://wiki.php.net/phpng-upgrading
6. is PHPng really faster?
yes, from my own test, it get more than 80% qps improvement in
wordpress than php-5.6 . for those big PHP users, that means they can
save lots of money.
I see no reason to not have such a great change. anyone who
tried to block such a amazing feature merge into PHP, is doing crime
for PHP.
I am not a native english speaker, so maybe I confused you in
some words , sorry for that.
I really hope the people in this group, the people who loves PHP,
the people who want PHP become more popular here. stop less reasonable
arguing, let's together to make this biggest change merge into PHP,
make PHP users more easy life..
If you think we need write doc, let us write it.
If you think we need more clean APIs? please tell me what style is
more clean, we can disccuss it, refactor it.
If you meet problems when you try to upgrade you extension from PHP
to PHPng, let's add more info into the doc, or I can do some part of
your work for you. as I have almost refactor all the extensions under
ext/
and what do you want else?
please, just, please, stop the worthless talking, I really don't
want to see such useless words anymore..
thanks
