Igbinary in the PHP client
I'm a long time memory memcached user, and I always compiled the memcached-php extension to have igbinary. I followed the instructions to get source and unfortunately I was not able to pull the repo. Is there a version that has igbinary configured?
phpinfo reports the igbinary serializer is not avaliable in your default version.
Am I better of using the stock serializer?
Memcached::OPT_SERIALIZER
Specifies the serializer to use for serializing non-scalar values. The valid serializers are Memcached::SERIALIZER_PHP or Memcached::SERIALIZER_IGBINARY. The latter is supported only when memcached is configured with --enable-memcached-igbinary option and the igbinary extension is loaded.
Type: integer, default: Memcached::SERIALIZER_PHP.
Hi,
we currently don't have a build with igbinary, future versions will also be based on our libcouchbase/ext-couchbase combo. Though upgrade should be smooth. I'll put investigating igbinary on our todo. You can track our progress at http://couchbase.com/issues/browse/PCBC-33
Let us know if you have any other questions :)
Cheers
Jan
