+

+ The PHP team is once again proud to participate in the + Google Summer of Code. + Seven students will "flip bits instead of burgers" this summer: +

+
    +
  • + Mentored by Michael Wallner, Hannes Magnusson will work on + LiveDocs, which is a + "tool to display DocBook XML files in a web browser on the + fly, without the need of building all HTML target files first". + This project will be of great value to the PHP Documentation Team. +
    • +
  • + The PHP Interpreter uses reference counting to keep track of which + objects are no longer referenced and thus can be destroyed. A major + weakness in the current implementation is that it cannot detect + reference cycles, that is objects that reference each other in a + circular graph structure which is not referenced itself from outside + the circle. Mentored by Derick Rethans, David Wang will implement a + new reference counting algorithm that will alleviate this problem. +
    • +
  • + Xdebug provides a range of useful + functionality for PHP developers, including detailed error information, + code coverage and profiling support, and support for remote debugging + using the GDB and DBGp protocols. Mentored by Xdebug's creator, + Derick Rethans, Adam Harvey will develop a cross-platform GUI + application that implements the DBGp protocol and allows PHP + applications to be debugged using Xdebug in a development environment + agnostic fashion. +
    • +
  • + Mentored by Lukas Smith, Konsta Vesterinen will work on the + object-relational mapper Doctrine. +
    • +
  • + Mutation Testing, or Automated Error Seeding, is an approach where + the testing tool makes some change to the tested code, runs the tests, + and if the tests pass displays a message saying what it changed. This + approach is different than code coverage analysis, because it can find + code that is executed by the running of tests but not actually tested. + Mentored by Sebastian Bergmann, Mike Lewis will implement Mutation + Testing for PHPUnit. +
    • +
  • + Mentored by Helgi Þormar Þorbjörnsson, Igor Feghali will add support + for foreign keys to + MDB2_Schema, + a package that "enables users to maintain RDBMS independant schema + files in XML that can be used to create, alter and drop database + entities and insert data into a database". +
    • +
  • + Mentored by David Coallier, Nicolas Bérard-Nault will refactor the + internals of Jaws, a + Framework and Content Management System for building dynamic web sites, + for PHP 6. +

+The majority of the security vulnerabilities discovered and resolved can in +most cases be only abused by local users and cannot be triggered remotely. +However, some of the above issues can be triggered remotely in certain +situations, or exploited by malicious local users on shared hosting setups +utilizing PHP as an Apache module. Therefore, we strongly advise all users of +PHP, regardless of the version to upgrade to the 5.2.1 or 4.4.5 releases as soon as possible. +

+

+For users upgrading to PHP 5.2 from PHP 5.0 and PHP 5.1, an upgrade guide is +available here, detailing the changes between +those releases and PHP 5.2.1. +

+

Update: Feb 14th; Added release information for PHP +4.4.5.

+

Update: Feb 12th; The Windows install package had problems +with upgrading from previous PHP versions. That has now been fixed and new file +posted in the download section.

+
+ + + + The front page has changed + + + http://php.net/archive/2007.php#2007-02-08-1 + 2007-02-08T00:00:00+01:00 + 2007-02-08T00:00:00+01:00 + + +
+

+ The news on the front page of php.net has changed, the conference announcements are now located on their own page. + The idea is to keep php.net specific news clear and also opens the door for additional news entries, like for RC releases. More changes are on the way so keep an eye out. +
