Subject: todo items
From: mls@pooteeweet.org (Lukas Kahwe Smith)

Hello,

On the heels of the 5.2.1 release I just wanted to bring up the 
following todo items that have been on the 5.x todo lists since ages. 
Are these still alive? Have they been done? What would be a sensible 
target version?

Especially the "on-the-fly static properties" is much requested.

Open for discussion

    1. on-the-fly static properties (mike)
    2. 'strict class' to disable dynamic member variable addition (marcus)
    3. add a function that returns tsrm_thread_id() - already covererd 
by zend_thread_id() but only in debug ZTS mode (Wez)
    4. userspace streams filter that acts as a default filter through 
which require/include read their files (Sebastian, Sara)
    5. pat3 "OpenLDAP C API cleanup patch" and pat44 "LDAP control support"

Todo items for future 5.Y.Z releases

    1. Switch for disabling/enabling materialized cursors in mysqli (georg)
    2. add support for files >2GB (wez)
    3. add array_replace[_recursive] (diff, phpt) (matt)
    4. PDO
          1. allow the DSN to be passed as array, proposal phase. An 
initial proposal was done here (pierre, lukas)
    5. XMLWriter:
          1. Add writeNode([xmlreader obj]), allow to create a push/pull 
parser

regards,
Lukas
