Doc #42683 [Asn->Csd]: Need APC theory-of-operation documentation

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=42683&edit=1 ID: 42683 Updated by: krakjoe@php.net Reported by: tony at tigerheron dot com Summary: Need APC theory-of-operation documentation -Status: Assigned +Status: Closed Type: Documentation Problem Package: Documentation problem Operating System: ANY PHP Version: Irrelevant Assigned To: kalle Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: The files TECHNOTES and INSTALL both explain the functionality and operation of APC adequately. I don't see the need for this report to be open any longer, I'm not sure when the files were added but the problem is no longer ... Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-10-24 16:32:33] kalle@php.net Assigning myself and Gopal to this one. Gopal said he will provide some of the material he had for APC that we can incorporate for the intermediate user into the manual so that you don't need to be a systems hacker to get it running in a nice manner ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-10-15 18:49:36] philip@php.net Sounds reasonable, let's keep it open so someone will find and tackle this. Everyone should feel free to add knowledge and/or links to resources here too. In the very least we could find information to link to from ref.apc. Also, the upcoming documentation style allows this type of information (like extension specific tutorials). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-09-20 08:51:47] bjori@php.net Personally I would like to see tutorials, howto and best practices for each extension in the manual.. :) Please use our mailing list (phpdoc@lists.php.net) for these kind of discussions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-09-19 22:10:06] tony at tigerheron dot com Thanks for the reassurance nlopess, but it sounds like you could use a good APC reference yourself. Then you wouldn't have to guess as to whether the behavior was a bug or a feature. I believe there are conditions under which APC will not and cannot cache the compiled code. Certainly, Rasmus seems to think so and I would think he would know. I also do not believe he considers it a bug in APC, although you would have to check with him. Finally, I don't know that anyone is working on this or intends to work on it. There are hints throughout the Web about some of the conditions under which code will be or won't be cached. I'm trying to get these documented. I'm sure you want PHP to have the best documentation possible, so I'm puzzled by your resistance and why this bug report remains WONTFIX. Because it's in the WONTFIX state, that also means no one else can comment on it besides you and me, so we're missing out from whatever wisdom others could contribute to this discussion. Would it be possible for you to re-open it? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-09-19 21:16:26] nlopess@php.net ok, so not caching all the (compiled) files can be seen like a bug and I'm sure somebody is working on that. My advise is: don't worry with that, because the situation will improve over the time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
