Thoughts on C version supported for PHP-Next

Hey ! Just a quick word to launch the debate. Disclamer : This is not a C vs C++ talk, thank you :-) We nowadays support C89 officially . It is very stable and well implemented in almost every compiler nowadays, but it is old and lack some features we could benefit from. Why not take PHP-Next step to support a more recent version ? Even C99 would be allright and C11 would be super cool (though pretty recent). I know we support lots of compilers (even if that's not really documented), and some of them could fail at supporting some C versions. However, as PHP-Next is a big step in modernizing PHP, why not have a discussion about the C versions our souce code base should support ? Just to say, perhaps it's a dead and debate because of a big blocker point. Julien.Pauli
