Doc #74676 [Opn->Nab]: Document unsupported extensions?

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=74676&edit=1 ID: 74676 Updated by: requinix@php.net Reported by: ian at gumstix dot com Summary: Document unsupported extensions? -Status: Open +Status: Not a bug Type: Documentation Problem Package: Documentation problem Operating System: N/A PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: 1. The ps changelog specifically mentions that 1.4.0 supports PHP 7 ("phpng") and no longer supports PHP 5. Even Linux distros are bundling ps-1.4.0 with their PHP 7 builds. 2. If ps didn't support PHP 7 at all then you wouldn't even be able to use the extension because PHP would have ignored it during startup. With a warning. I don't even see anything in your backtrace to suggest ps is at fault: the crash is happening while opcache is compiling a file during an autoload.

How can I tell which PECL extensions are actually supported, and which (like ps) are effectively not? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=74676&edit=1
