Well, as not having threads is an old problem and the last time i asked about
it it wasn't even planned, i don't know if it has changed lately. Threads is
what is preventing me to develop some kind of application servers entirely in
php. Well, not preventing, but some characteristics would be extremely hard
to implement and performance would be disasterous.
However, for threads to be integrated, the whole set of
functions/classes/array or structs access/etc. should be aware of this and
correctly manage semaphores and such, so i know it is not an easy task. My
question is: Is there any plan on it, is there any way for me to contribute
to it? I am a very skilled C programmer, i have even made some php patches
for myself some times, but i can not take responsibility for such a work.
However i would be very glad to contribute with code pieces and patches.
Thanx!
