Hi, as part of the extension version check on PECL it turned out, that the extensions in the core are almost completely out of track with their versions, not even to talk about version macros names. That regards to exts imported from PECL as well as to the exts never been in PECL. Here are a few examples of zend_module_entry version strings:
I'd use PHP_VERSION for those extensions not explicitely managing a version.
PHP_VERSION-bundle for clarity in bug report :)
For ext/* that do not (or no longer) have PECL releases (e.g. pdo, dom) I would change their versions to PHP_VERSION-bundle even if they currently have some rational versioning. Extensions like ext/oci8 that historically do also have PECL releases should manage their own version numbers Chris -- christopher.jones@oracle.com http://twitter.com/ghrd Free PHP & Oracle book: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/php/underground-php-oracle-manual-098250.html
