Bradley Holt has a new post to his blog today talking about the experience he's had with testing the PHP 5.4 alpha1 release, just posted from the PHP development group.Rasmus Lerdorf today posted instructions for testing the upcoming PHP 5.4 release. Running the PHP tests and submitting the associated report will help the PHP team get PHP 5.4 ready faster as it gives them reports of failed tests from a variety of platforms. I just did this today for the first time and can tell you that it is very easy....
In a new post Gonzalo Ayuso talks about some of the new features in the recently released PHP 5.4 alpha, including some code examples.We already have the php5.4 alpha ready for testing.

Because of that, I'm very excited waiting for the new stable release of PHP 5.4.There's several features included in the release, but he spotlights some of the major ones - support for array dereferencing,...
A while ago I saw a lot of people writing about their PHP development environment and tools. I didn't get around to it at the time but yesterday I found me some time to write down my experiences of moving from Linux to MacOS X as primary OS for PHP A and web development
Me and my partner in Dotvoid, a small web development and integration company, have used linux as a client OS for more than a decade. All the tools I needed for developing are there already; emacs, apache, php, MySQL, xdebug, other...

Rasmus Lerdorf today posted instructions for testing the upcoming PHP 5.4 release.

Mike Purcell has a recent post to his blog looking at the rumors of a Symfony 1.x fork and some of his own thoughts on the matter.It's amazing that we are even having this type of discussion. We opted to use Symfony back in 0.x for some high traffic projects. [...] And now here we are on 1.4. Content and happy with the throughput the dev team is able to maintain. But now Symonfy says that 2.0 will be released and is completely different than 1.x? How is that fair to the companies, individuals, and...
In a new post to the Ibuildings techPortal today, Patrick van der Velden shares some of his thoughts about one of the presentations given at this year's Dutch PHP Conference - Think like an ant, distribute the workload.[Helgi's] presentation started off explaining to us why distributing can be a good thing by pointing out three significant aspects: budget, efficiency and perception. Budget-wise, for a distributed application there is no need to invest in a big, expensive and hard to maintain server that...
In a sort of "remind himself later" kind of post, Chris Shiflett has shared a quick example of a common task PHP developers face sorting a multi-dimensional array.Every time I need to sort a multi-dimensional array in PHP, I have to remind myself how to do it. It's not quite as quick and easy to look up as most things, so I'm going to blog a quick example. I've always felt like there must be a better way to do this, so please let me know if there is, and I'll update this post accordingly.His method sorts...
At Liip "Symfony2" started in production a year earlier. Well I say "Symfony2" because it was just our internal framework OkAPI enhanced with the current crop of at the time PHP 5.2 Symfony components (actually we also included the symfony 1.x routing component). The results were so convincing that we decided to switch to Symfony2 entirely. The big feature back then and today is of course dependency injection (DI) and the dependency injection container (DIC). I remember many discussion with Jordi back...
On Elated.com today there's the fourth part of their series looking at object oriented programming in PHP. This time the focus is specifically on autoloading classes, making objects into strings (serialized) and introspection.If you've read all the articles up to this point then you're already familiar with the most important concepts of object-oriented programming in PHP: classes, objects, properties, methods, and inheritance. In this final (for now, at least!) tutorial in the series, I'm going to tie...
