Sure it'll be in PECL, just like dio, crack, yaz, and the other half dozen or so extensions we've removed from PHP 5 ext/ and into PECL. > I'm well aware of ext/xmlrpc's limitations, haven't tried the new (but > necessary) pecl/xmlrpci yet, and have the tiny issue that a bunch of my > scripts will need a complete rewrite if the old extension is simply taken > away from PHP 5 up. I suspect I'm far from being alone in that - do we have > figures for core extension usage, anyone? Well considering we've done it already with a number of extensions, I don't see a big issue. Note also that I'm not hugely concerned with *when* this happens (read: What version of PHP the change is made). Although there could be a bunch of compat functions to emulate the old xmlrpc behavior,I'm against it simply because there is nothing stopping someone from having both extensions loaded. > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "John Coggeshall" <john@coggeshall.org> > To: "Jani Taskinen" <sniper@iki.fi> > Cc: "Rasmus Lerdorf" <rasmus@lerdorf.com>; <internals@lists.php.net>; > <rasmus@php.net> > Sent: Sunday, August 28, 2005 3:42 AM > Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] Re: PHP 5.1: Does it still require ext/xmlrpc for > pear? > > > > On that line though, I'd like to finish up the ext/xmlrpci ext I've got > > in PECL and replace ext/xmlrpc.
