#42683 [Opn->WFx]: Need APC theory-of-operation documentation

ID: 42683 Updated by: nlopess@php.net Reported By: tony at tigerheron dot com -Status: Open +Status: Wont fix Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: ANY PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: the php manual isn't a book for a computer science course. If you want to know how a opcode cache works, the php manual is surelly not the best place to look at. Anyway, all code you write in PHP is compiled to opcodes (and it is not the job of APC to compile the code).

There is plenty of information on installing and running APC, but little on what does or how it operates. Some hints can be found through Google searches, but not much. When writing code, for example, I don't know under which conditions I may be creating code which will not be compiled to opcodes by APC. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=42683&edit=1
