<para>

PHP 5 and the integrated Zend Engine 2 have greatly improved PHP's
|
|
performance and capabilities, but great care has been taken to break as
|
|
little existing code as possible. So migrating your code from PHP 4 to 5
|
|
should be very easy. Most existing PHP 4 code should be ready to run
|
|
without changes, but you should still know about the <link
|
|
linkend="migration5.incompatible">few differences</link> and
|
|
take care to test your code before switching versions in production
|
|
environments.

Although most existing PHP 4 code should work without changes, you should
|
|
pay attention to the following backward incompatible changes:

Illegal use of string offsets causes <constant>E_ERROR</constant> instead

of <constant>E_WARNING</constant>. An example illegal use is:

<literal>$str = 'abc'; unset($str[0]);</literal>.

<function>array_merge</function> was changed to accept only arrays. If a
|
|
non-array variable is passed, a <constant>E_WARNING</constant> will be
|
|
thrown for every such parameter. Be careful because your code may start
|
|
emitting <constant>E_WARNING</constant> out of the blue.

<constant>PATH_TRANSLATED</constant> server variable is no longer set implicitly under
|
|
Apache2 SAPI in contrast to the situation in PHP 4, where it is set to
|
|
the same value as the <constant>SCRIPT_FILENAME</constant> server variable when it is not
|
|
populated by Apache. This change was made to comply with the <link
|
|
xlink:href="&url.rfc;3875">CGI/1.1 specification</link>. Please refer to <link
|
|
xlink:href="&url.php.bugs;23610">bug #23610</link> for further information,
|
|
and see also the <varname>$_SERVER['PATH_TRANSLATED']</varname>
|
|
description in the manual. This issue

also affects PHP versions >= 4.3.2.

The <constant>T_ML_COMMENT</constant> constant is no longer defined by
|
|
the <link linkend="ref.tokenizer">Tokenizer</link> extension. If
|
|
error_reporting is set to <constant>E_ALL</constant>, PHP will
|
|
generate a notice. Although the <constant>T_ML_COMMENT</constant> was
|
|
never used at all, it was defined in PHP 4. In both PHP 4 and PHP 5
|
|
// and /* */ are resolved as the <constant>T_COMMENT</constant>
|
|
constant. However the PHPDoc style comments <literal>/** */</literal>, which starting PHP
|
|
5 are parsed by PHP, are recognized as <constant>T_DOC_COMMENT</constant>.

<varname>$_SERVER</varname> should be populated with <varname>argc</varname> and
|
|
<varname>argv</varname> if
|
|
<link linkend="ini.variables-order">variables_order</link> includes "S".
|
|
If you have specifically configured your system to not create
|
|
<varname>$_SERVER</varname>, then of course it shouldn't be there.
|
|
The change was to always make <varname>argc</varname>
|
|
and <varname>argv</varname> available in the CLI version regardless of the
|
|
<link linkend="ini.variables-order">variables_order</link> setting.
|
|
As in, the CLI version will now always populate the global
|
|
<varname>$argc</varname> and <varname>$argv</varname> variables.

In some cases classes must be declared before use. It only happens if
|
|
some of the new features of PHP 5 (such as <link
|
|
linkend="language.oop5.interfaces">interfaces</link>) are used.

Otherwise the behaviour is the old.

<function>get_class</function>, <function>get_parent_class</function>
|

and <function>get_class_methods</function> now return the name of the
|
|
classes/methods as they were declared (case-sensitive) which may lead to
|
|
problems in older scripts that rely on the previous behaviour (the
|
|
class/method name was always returned lowercased). A possible solution
|
|
is to search for those functions in all your scripts and use
|
|
<function>strtolower</function>.
|

</simpara>
|

<simpara>

This case sensitivity change also applies to the

constants</link> <constant>__CLASS__</constant>,

|
<constant>__METHOD__</constant>, and <constant>__FUNCTION__</constant>.

The values are returned exactly as they're declared (case-sensitive).

If there are functions defined in the included file, they can be used in the

|
main file independent if they are before <function>return</function> or after.
|
|
If the file is included twice, PHP 5 issues fatal error because functions
|
|
were already declared, while PHP 4 doesn't complain about it.
|
|
It is recommended to use <function>include_once</function> instead of
|
|
checking if the file was already included and conditionally return inside
|
|
the included file.

Passing an array to a function by value no longer resets the
|
|
array's internal pointer for array accesses made within the
|
|
function. In other words, in PHP 4 when you passed an array to a
|
|
function, its internal pointer inside the function would be
|
|
reset, while in PHP 5, when you pass an array to a function, its
|
|
array pointer within the function will be wherever it was when
|
|
the array was passed to the function.

<title>CLI and CGI</title>

In PHP 5 there were some changes in CLI and CGI filenames. In PHP 5, the
|
|
CGI version was renamed to <filename>php-cgi.exe</filename> (previously
|
|
<filename>php.exe</filename>) and the CLI version now sits in the main
|
|
directory (previously <filename>cli/php.exe</filename>).
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
In PHP 5 it was also introduced a new mode:
|
|
<filename>php-win.exe</filename>. This is equal to the CLI version, except
|
|
that php-win doesn't output anything and thus provides no console (no "dos
|
|
box" appears on the screen). This behavior is similar to php-gtk.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
In PHP 5, the CLI version will always populate the global
|
|
<varname>$argv</varname> and <varname>$argc</varname> variables regardless
|
|
of any &php.ini; directive setting. Even having
|
|
<link linkend="ini.register-argc-argv">register_argc_argv</link> set to
|
|
<literal>off</literal> will have no affect in CLI.

Since the ISAPI modules changed their names, from php4xxx to php5xxx, you

need to make some changes in the configuration files. There were also

changes in the CLI and CGI filenames. Please refer to the <link

If your web server is running PHP in CGI mode, you should note that the
|
|
CGI version has changed its name from <filename>php.exe</filename> to
|
|
<filename>php-cgi.exe</filename>.
|
|
In Apache, you should do something like this:

<example>
|

<title>Migrating Apache configuration files for PHP 5, CGI mode</title>

<programlisting role="apache-conf">

There were some changes in PHP 5 regarding databases (MySQL and SQLite).

</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
In PHP 5 the MySQL client libraries are not bundled, because of license
|
|
problems and some others. For more information, read the <link

linkend="faq.databases.mysql.php5">FAQ entry</link>.

</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Since PHP 5, the <link linkend="ref.sqlite">SQLite</link> extension is
|
|
built-in PHP. SQLite is an embeddable SQL database engine and is not a
|
|
client library used to connect to a big database server (like MySQL or
|
|
PostgreSQL). The SQLite library reads and writes directly to and from the
|
|
database files on disk.

<title>New Object Model</title>
|
|
<para>
|
|
In PHP 5 there is a new Object Model. PHP's handling of objects has been
|
|
completely rewritten, allowing for better performance and more features.
|
|
In previous versions of PHP, objects were handled like primitive types
|
|
(for instance integers and strings). The drawback of this method was that
|
|
semantically the whole object was copied when a variable was assigned, or
|
|
passed as a parameter to a method. In the new approach, objects are
|
|
referenced by handle, and not by value (one can think of a handle as an
|
|
object's identifier).
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Many PHP programmers aren't even aware of the copying quirks of the old
|
|
object model and, therefore, the majority of PHP applications will work
|
|
out of the box, or with very few modifications.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The new Object Model is documented at the <link
|
|
linkend="language.oop5">Language Reference</link>.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
In PHP 5, function with the name of a class is called as a constructor
|
|
only if defined in the same class. In PHP 4, it is called also if defined
|
|
in the parent class.
|
|
</para>

As of PHP 5 the error reporting

constant <constant>E_STRICT</constant> is available, with the

<simpara>

<constant>E_ALL</constant> does not include <constant>E_STRICT</constant>,
