Community News: Smooth Sailing From PHP4
to PHP5?
03/06/2004 02:08 AMWith the release of PHP5 looming on the horizion, it seems like more
and more of these "conversion" articles are popping up. Now, don't get
me wrong - it's not a bad thing, but I have to wonder, really, how
much difference there really will be...

Official Migrating from PHP4 to PHP5
Docs
03/06/2004 01:53 AMPHP 5 and the integrated Zend Engine 2 have greatly improved PHP's
performance and capabilities, but great care has been taken to break
as little existing code as possible. So migrating your code from PHP 4
to 5 should be very easy. Most existing PHP 4 code should be ready to
run without changes, but you should still know about the few
differences and take care to test your code before switching versions
in production environments. -- Nuno Lopes
Andi Gutman points this out:
>Paragraph: Classes must be declared before used
>is no longer true. For most cases this is allowed now.
To be accurate, we solved the BC issue but for people who want to
use the
PHP 5 features (such as implementing interfaces), they will have to
declare
the class before using it.

03/22/2005 04:23 PMWe are happy to announce the realization of a goal of mine to run
our own server side seeder for our Podcast feeds. This puts us in
control of the feed and we no longer have to utilize third party
services.
This is being accomplished with the pre-release of the newest BlogTorrent application. With
the seeding portion being in beta I am sure it isn't a 100% but in the
first 12 hours of running it we have been pretty happy.
Those of you getting podcast from us that have subscribed to the

08/05/2002 10:44 PMBetween Wrox Professional PHP4 XML and New Riders XML and PHP book, it
is hard to recommend one or the other because both are very well
written and cover pretty much the same topic that matter to anybody
developing XML applications with PHP. If you can afford them, it would
probably be a good idea to purchase both as there may be details that
may be slightly clearer in one book than in the other.

fast-paced drill on the rudimentaries of PHP (although the fast-paced
installation instructions come in the form of classic compendia --
worth 100 pages) for seasoned programmers, before it plunges head
straight into the more advanced areas of the language. Each chapter
reads a bit like a tutorial on a particular area of advanced PHP
development."

Professional PHP4 XML review
09/24/2002 12:21 PMLooking across the XML bookshelf today, it's easy to see many books
discussing XML in a generic manner, or more commonly how to utilize
XML within Java, .NET and Perl. Moreover, despite the broad based
support that PHP has for XML, there has been no book that tackled the
complexities and best practices, and at the same time offered a
comprehensive resource to the XML-based APIs -- at least not until
now. Read on for more about the best selling Professional PHP4 XML."
