I'm working on updating an extension for PHP 7 compatibility.  I have one
function that uses an optional zval ** with zend_parse_parameters().

        zval **zprevcount = NULL;
        int count;
        int argc = ZEND_NUM_ARGS();

        if (zend_parse_parameters(ZEND_NUM_ARGS() TSRMLS_CC, "|Z",
&zprevcount) == FAILURE)  return;

        ...

        if (argc > 0)
        {
                count = (int)PrevCount;

                zval_dtor(*zprevcount);
                ZVAL_LONG(*zprevcount, count);
        }

What's the correct way to translate that into PHP 7?

Since you are working with integers, you can do:

zend_long prevcount = 0;

if(zend_parse_parameters(ZEND_NUM_ARGS(), "|l", &prevcount) == FAILURE)
{
        return;
}

if(prevcount)
{
      /* ... use prevcount ... */
}

Notice that all integers returned from the ZPP is a zend_long, you can
see more information about the ZPP in
php-src/README.PARAMETER_PARSING_API

Unless I missed something, zend_long is generally defined as a standard int64_t or int32_t type (Zend/zend_long.h). I need to be able to *modify* the original variable that was passed in. I already use "|l" and zend_long elsewhere in the extension.

I'm thinking the correct ZPP string is "|z/" but the usage examples in core that I've looked at so far are inconsistent, hence the original question of what's the correct approach?
