Yes. --rf/--rc work for preloaded classes/functions. ________________________________ From: Crocodile <crocodil...@gmail.com> Sent: Monday, October 29, 2018 1:44:08 PM To: Dmitry Stogov Cc: Michael Wallner; Sara Golemon; PHP internals Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] [RFC] Preloading
Just a side question: will the information on preloaded userland classes and functions be available via php --rc / php --rf commands?

But anyway, I more like my own FFI implementation (at least because it's simpler and it's mine). FFI::load() in conjunction with preloading, would provide functionality similar to PSI files loading on startup. In the future, I would like to push ext/FFI into core and integrate it with JIT (similar to LuaJIT way). In any case, this thread is about preloading, that is interesting by itself. FFI and JIT are the future scope. Thanks. Dmitry. -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- Best regards, Victor Bolshov
