Matt Ingenthron added a comment - 11/Dec/12 8:05 PM Talked to PHP core contributor Pierre Joye today. To do this correctly, PHP must be rebuilt for each Major.Minor release and each nts/ts. It must also be built per architecture. From the discussion: hi Pierre! question for you, if we build our PECL extension against 5.3, we need to rebuild against 5.4, right? ingenthr @ 9:06 ingenthr, yes, and for each you also need ts and nts Pierre @ 9:06 ingenthr, I would do it for 5.5 too while being at it, always good to be in line 9:06   so, rebuild for each ts and nts, and each major.minor, huh? ingenthr @ 9:07 yes Pierre @ 9:07 they are usually binary incompatible, while being API compatible 9:07 ABI no, API yes 9:07   you're referring to between ts and nts? ingenthr @ 9:08 okay, so…. what we're doing right now is just wrong 9:09   morning mordy_ @ 9:09 ingenthr, x.y.z > x.y.z+1 API and ABI compatible Pierre @ 9:29 ingenthr, x.y.z > x.y+1.z+1 API compatible and ABI not compatible 9:30   whew mordy_ @ 9:30 ingenthr, x.y.z > x+1.y.z End of the world as we know it Pierre @ 9:30 err Pierre @ 9:30 ingenthr, x.y.z > x.y+1.z API compatible and ABI not compatible Pierre @ 9:30 good morning mordy_ ingenthr @ 9:30 so patch level doesn't break ABI, minor level does mordy_ @ 9:30 ABI breakages only need recompilation, sometimes with some #ifdef Pierre @ 9:31 thanks Pierre, is there a primary source for this? I just know I'm going to have to explain this one a lot. and I'd searched, but it's a hard thing to search for ingenthr @ 9:31 ingenthr: i pretty much believe we've been working on this premise already mordy_ @ 9:32 ingenthr, https://wiki.php.net/rfc/releaseprocess Pierre @ 9:32

Matt Ingenthron added a comment - 11/Dec/12 8:12 PM The updated source tarball is available from: https://github.com/couchbase/php-ext-couchbase/archive/1.1.0.tar.gz This can be built (instructions in the readme) on PHP 5.4 or 5.5, with nts/ts.

makeawish added a comment - 11/Jan/13 6:32 PM Matt, will you guys in the very near future release/ make avail a PHP client library which will support 5.4 ? Also it might be helpful to update the docs to reflect that the current one does not support 5.4, i says 5.3 or higher

Perry Krug added a comment - 20/Feb/13 3:02 AM Matt, can we get a release assigned to this?

Matt Ingenthron added a comment - 20/Feb/13 3:15 AM Will do when I can assign appropriate resources.
