That's way outside the scope of what we have planned for PHP 6 and I can pretty much guarantee it won't happen. The SRM-like thing doesn't need to be part of PHP though. Anybody can build such a beast.

What about something like a "persistent superglobal"? The idea is to have something like an application-wide session, not only a session per user. There could be several backends, the same way like session.save_handler setting for the session extension (e.g. files, mm, apc...). I have described that in more detail here: http://news.php.net/php.internals/19690 Andrey posted an interesting response on how to use semaphore and shm, but I was thinking about hiding the implementation and add a superglobal like $_PERSISTENT (or something like that), which can store any PHP variables between requests, like $_SESSION does, but application-wide, not separated for each user.

That's already on the list. See section 6.9 -Rasmus -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
