Liquid Fire Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 does anyone know a general release date for php 5.3? I want to start building a new version of my framework however I really wanted to wait for the new features like late static binding.

wildteen88 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 According to the php wiki php5.3 is not expected until Q2/Q3 2008. Little while to wait yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liquid Fire Posted March 26, 2008 Author Share Posted March 26, 2008 yea, I guess i will have to plan the system so it will be easy to add in the static binding/namepspacing/etc... feature of php 5.3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 No reason you can't install it now on a dev server. hell, Ive had php6 running for a few months here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liquid Fire Posted March 26, 2008 Author Share Posted March 26, 2008 well i also want to make sure the framework works on the current version, not sure if i can have more than one installed at a time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 You can, but it can be a little more difficult to setup. If your compiling from source you simply use one of the .configure options (not sure which off the top of my head) to append a string to any binaries built. This way you can have php4, php5 php5.3 etc etc. Been a while since Ive done this this way as I'm simply using vps's to build seperate dev environments if I need them, but I know it is possible.

Liquid Fire Posted April 2, 2008 Author Share Posted April 2, 2008 are there any tutorials on setting up 2 different versions php on the same machine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 I believe wampserver allows you to install multiple version and allows you to switch between them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liquid Fire Posted April 6, 2008 Author Share Posted April 6, 2008 Did I not post a solution to setting up multiple php versions on linux several posts ago? bot sure but i got is figured out. I want having issue compiling php because of how apache was setup(I use the automatic package manager with ubuntu. SO i uninstalled everything and the compiled apache myself, install mysql with package manager, and compiled php 5.2.5 and php 5.3 mysqlf.

trq Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Is that a question? You can still install apache via a package manager, you'll just need to install the headers to compile php against. On Debian that would be the apache2-prefork-dev package, I'm sure its much the same on Ubuntu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liquid Fire Posted April 7, 2008 Author Share Posted April 7, 2008 I meant i figured it out. once I installed apache2 by compiling it myself, compiling php worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
