Hi all,
As you know, 5.5 final is coming soon.
We are in RC, so mainly stabilizing stuff and preparing the final release
for anyone to setup 5.5 on their servers.
I see the documentation migration guide has already been commited, that's a
good new.
I also see that new features we ship in 5.5 are online in the
documentation, great !
But a crucial feature is missing doc : OPCache.
As this feature is a very big step in PHP's life (we finally have a
recommanded, bundled opcode cache system, and I'm very proud of this
personnaly), I think it is crucial to have a good documentation about it.
Has anyone started to write some doc about OPCache ?
Another subject is APC. We have its doc on php.net, all right.
What I would like is we patch APC doc when 5.5 final gets released, to
clearly show our mind about it.
That way, any people using 5.5 should be able to read in the doc that APC
has support has been interrupted, that APC should never be used together
with OPCache, and that OPCache is now the standard recommanded OPCode
caching solution for 5.5, 5.4 and 5.3.
It is crucial to communicate one this point for our users.
Then will come the "User cache" debate
Thank you.

Up. Could we at least plan such a project ?
5.5 is released now. I know we are still having trouble about OpCache
particulary under Windows. I dont shadow that.
I would just like we start thinking about writing documentation for OPCache
features and merge them to our official documentation. If it's already
planned by someone, just let me know ;-)
Thx.

I find it hard to believe this feature made it into 5.5.0 without
a shred of documentation. I would be willing to help, but I actually don't
know much about how opcache works. If anyone is willing to give me a hand I
could draft up some basic FAQ style docs at least so that 5.5.0 users will
have some point of reference.
Thx.

I'm working on some basic opcache documentation as we speak, since it
was pointed out on #php.doc. That said, mostly what I'm doing for now
is adapting the README in ext/opcache and documenting opcache_reset()
and opcache_invalidate()
— some additional theory of operating and
setup documentation would be very welcome.
There should be something to look at in SVN in the next hour or so.
My apologies — I wrote the first draft of the migration guide in the
mid alpha stage (ie before opcache was merged) of 5.5 with the
intention of going back to flesh it out before the final release, but
time has been a bit of an issue. Turns out moving halfway across the
world is a real time sink.

Thank you for working on that. I will dig into opcache over the next few
days and see if I can lend a hand.

Hi Adam,
Thank you for taking this work.
In case you have any questions, I'll glad to help.
Thanks. Dmitry.
