Software 42787 Published by

PHP 8.4.0 has been released, addressing various bugs and improvements in BcMath, Core, and BCMath, which ensures enhanced performance and compatibility across different operating systems.

The new version has introduced a number of changes, including the addition of constants CURL_HTTP_VERSION_3 and CURL_HTTP_VERSION_3ONLY. It also includes CURLOPT_TCP_KEEPCNT, which allows users to set the number of probes to send before terminating the connection, and CURLOPT_PREREQFUNCTION, enabling the specification of a custom callback after the connection is established. Additionally, certain constants such as SUNFUNCS_RET_TIMESTAMP, SUNFUNCS_RET_STRING, and SUNFUNCS_RET_DOUBLE have been deprecated.

The update also addressed bugs in the DOM, DOMNode, FPM, FTP, GD, GMP, Hash, IMAP, Intl, and XML. These changes include the deprecation of the DOM_PHP_ERR constant, the removal of DOMImplementation::getFeature(), the fix of segmentation faults in DOM extensions, the removal of the deprecated inet_ntoa call support, and the removal of memory peak to the scoreboard/status page.

. Enable AES-GCM on aarch64 with the ARM crypto extensions. (jedisct1)

- SPL:
. Implement SeekableIterator for SplObjectStorage. (nielsdos)
. The SplFixedArray::__wakeup() method has been deprecated as it implements
__serialize() and __unserialize() which need to be overwritten instead.
(TysonAndre)
. Passing a non-empty string for the $escape parameter of:
- SplFileObject::setCsvControl()
- SplFileObject::fputcsv()
- SplFileObject::fgetcsv()
is now deprecated. (Girgias)

- Standard:
. Implement GH-12188 (Indication for the int size in phpinfo()). (timwolla)
. Partly fix GH-12143 (Incorrect round() result for 0.49999999999999994).

the precision is not lost. (Marc Bennewitz)

- str_getcsv()
is now deprecated. (Girgias)
. The str_getcsv() function now throws ValueErrors when the $separator and
$enclosure arguments are not one byte long, or if the $escape is not one
