[ANNOUNCEMENT] igbinary-3.0.0a1 (alpha) Released.

The new PECL package igbinary-3.0.0a1 (alpha) has been released at https://pecl.php.net/. Release notes ------------- * Drop support for PHP 5. * Drop support for APC (APC was only available for PHP5 - It is the predecessor of APCu) * Emit a warning and return null if igbinary_unserialize() is passed more data to unserialize than expected. * Fix compilation against PHP 7.4-dev. Igbinary does NOT yet properly serialize/unserialize all classes with PHP 7.4-dev's typed properties. * The serialization format is exactly the same as igbinary 2.x Package Info ------------- Igbinary is a drop in replacement for the standard php serializer. Instead of time and space consuming textual representation, igbinary stores php data structures in a compact binary form. Savings are significant when using memcached or similar memory based storages for serialized data.
