# Creating the libphp5.a lib is not necessary for CGI build.
#
# btw. It would be quite easy to build CGI, CLI and for example Apache SAPI
# the same time.. :)
#
# whatever some posix standard says, there's no use to change this in
# two places and possibly break stuff, like said in bug #22604.
#
# Grep for 'egrep' in autoconf 2.13 generated configure to find
# several hundred 'egrep's..
#
. added checks for the dependancies PEAR has.
- Moved PHP_REGEX checks to ext/standard/config.m4
# If someone knows the reason for PHP_REGEX macro being where it was,
# please tell..
. stream_socket_client() - similar to fsockopen(), but more powerful.
. stream_socket_server() - Creates a server socket.
. stream_socket_accept() - Accept a client connection.
. stream_socket_get_name() - Get local or remote name of socket.
Tidy up some leaks and debug printfs.
Move more streams functions into streamsfuncs.c and streamsfuncs.h.
Main Changes:
- Implement a socket transport layer for use by all code that needs to open
some kind of "special" socket for network or IPC.
- Extensions can register (and override) transports.
- Implement ftruncate() on streams via the ioctl-alike option interface.
- Implement mmap() on streams via the ioctl-alike option interface.
- Implement generic crypto API via the ioctl-alike option interface.
(currently only supports OpenSSL, but could support other SSL toolkits,
and other crypto transport protocols).
Impact:
- tcp sockets can be overloaded by the openssl capable sockets at runtime,
removing the link-time requirement for ssl:// and https:// sockets and
streams.
- checking stream types using PHP_STREAM_IS_SOCKET is deprecated, since
there are now a range of possible socket-type streams.
Working towards:
- socket servers using the new transport layer
- mmap support under win32
- Cleaner code.
# I will be updating the win32 build to add the new files shortly
# after this commit.
