Hello, after lot of pondering, I finally decided to register to mailing list
& wiki. Reading wiki registration page, I am supposed to announce my
registration here.
I registered mainly for (possible) RFC proposals (none prepared yet) and
to ask some questions about php codebase - using more lasting medium
than irc is.
I am sysadmin/PHP "developer" from Slovak Republic with focus on php
"services" (aka daemons), php backends and such. My main php related
timesink currently is messing with PHP 7.1.
For few years now, I have been experimenting with extension writing, some of
which I deployed internally. Being sysadmin I am not entirely confident with my
code yet, but I plan to share most of my stuff eventually.
Before that though, I would like to produce few microscopic patches to
normal php distribution, to ease some miniscule pain points I am
constantly hitting.
For that, I would first like to ask clarification about FAST_ZPP maco "API"
from Dmitry Stogov & Bob Weinand.
In my extensions/experiments I am using solely this API for accessing
php:function() call parameters, not providing any "fallback"
through zend_parse_parameters() when #ifndef FAST_ZPP.
Skimming through codebase, it seems that few, 'often called', functions were
converted into FZPP style, but they still preserve 'legacy parsing style'
implemented as well.
Let's say, depending on how my currents attempts end up working, I want to
modify few bundled extension functions, is it okay to rewrite them to use
solely FAST_ZPP?
Or does have zend_parse_parameters() codepath to be preserved for years to come?
