requests--let's see what I can dig out of the bugtracker for NEWS--
and while crossing the road:
* implemented new zlib API
* fixed up ext/tidy (what was "s&" in zend_parse_parameters() supposed to do?)
Thanks to Jani and Felipe for pioneering.
gzeof has different semantics from feof, in that gzeof will return true
if the read position is at EOF, even if the most recent read was 100%
successful.
feof will return true only (usually) if the most recent fread failed.
I've moved EOF detection into the streams layer; a stream reader
implementation should set stream->eof when it detects EOF.
Fixed test for user streams - it still fails but that is due to an output
buffering bug.
Eliminate similar code from network.c.
Implement fgets equivalent at the streams level, which can detect
the mac, dos and unix line endings and handle them appropriately.
The default behaviour is unix (and dos) line endings.
An ini option to control this behaviour will follow.
# Don't forget to make clean!
# I've done some testing but would appreciate feedback from
# people with scripts/extensions that seek around a lot.
Add is_url field to wrapper structure; the stream wrapper openers
will disallow opening is is_url && !PG(allow_url_fopen).
Add infrastructure for stat($url) and opendir($url).
Tidy up/centralize code that locates and instantiates wrappers for the
various operations.
Implement opendir for plain files.
Make the PHP opendir and dir functions use the streams implementations.
Add modelines for syntax highlighting the pear scripts in vim
Added notice when a requested wrapper is not found.
# This BC thing was giving me nightmares.
# It took me 10 minutes to realize I hadn't compiled in zlib support also.
You can now do this:
copy("zlib:src.gz", "bz2:dest.bz2");
As with zlib, most of the functions with counterparts
in file.c are now aliases to those functions.
in ext/standard/file.c, so a gzopen()ed file pointer can be used in
fread, fseek etc.
Improved behaviour of zlib stream.
Moved passthru code into streams.c
# I'm not happy about BG(mmap_file)
Nuked gzgetss_state as no longer needed.
