$Id$ UPGRADE NOTES - PHP X.Y 1. Internal API changes a. Addition of do_operation and compare object handlers 2. Build system changes a. Unix build system changes b. Windows build system changes ======================== 1. Internal API changes ======================== a. Addition of do_operation and compare object handlers Two new object handlers have been added: do_operation: typedef int (*zend_object_do_operation_t)( zend_uchar opcode, zval *result, zval *op1, zval *op2 TSRMLS_DC ); compare: typedef int (*zend_object_compare_zvals_t)( zval *result, zval *op1, zval *op2 TSRMLS_DC ); The first handler is used to overload arithmetic operations. The first argument specifies the opcode of the operator, result is the target zval, op1 the first operand and op2 the second operand. For unary operations op2 is NULL. If the handler returns FAILURE PHP falls back to the default behavior for the operation. The second handler is used to perform comparison operations with non-objects. The value written into result must be an IS_LONG with value -1 (smaller), 0 (equal) or 1 (greater). The return value is a SUCCESS/FAILURE return code. The difference between this handler and compare_objects is that it will be triggered for comparisons with non-objects and objects of different types. It takes precedence over compare_objects.
