Release notes
-------------
* IMPORTANT
- if you are PHP5 user only:
use the pciconf script to build your own extension support list
- if you are PHP4 user only:
pciconf script required at least PHP5 to run, so to build your own support list,
do it by hand. All major extensions and their PCI dictionaries are available
on PEAR CVS [http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/pear/PHP_CompatInfo/CompatInfo/]
- A more comprehensive guide will be available for final stable release, ready for
PhD system and new PEAR Manual.
* news
- pciconf: the extension support list build system for PHP5 users only
use now a new exception handler for functions, and allow to make SAPI dictionaries
- improve again constant detection by adding a new dictionaries for internal
(php core) constants.
- 3 new methods: getIgnoredFunctions, getIgnoredExtensions, getIgnoredConstants
- 1 old method open to public: getIgnoredFiles
