PHP 5.2.1RC2 Released

The 2nd release candidate for PHP 5.2.1 is now available for download. The tarballs can be found here: http://downloads.php.net/ilia/php-5.2.1RC2.tar.bz2 (cc6024531e3d4058e32cf740e2fe535f) http://downloads.php.net/ilia/php-5.2.1RC2.tar.gz (3f89c31687762a39f1360b380dd315b4) and the Win32 binaries will be available in short order. Since the last release over 30 different bug fixes were made and the two pending patches relating to is_numeric_string() optimization and internal heap protection for the Zend Engine allocator were added. Another important change was the fact that the memory limit is now always enabled and to accommodate this change the default limit value was raised to 128 megabytes to avoid script breakage. We do not anticipate any regressions to be introduced by this RC, but I would still like to ask everyone to take a few minutes and test it against their code base. If you come across any issues please report them at http://bugs.php.net/. With this release we are nearing the final stretch is the release cycle, so I'd like to ask all developers to refrain from making any commits to the 5.2 tree that are not bug fixes. If all goes well the final RC (RC3) will be available in 2 weeks to be shortly followed by the final release. Ilia

Yes, the ming extension doesn't compile with older libmings on php 5.2 and 6. I have already warned the extension maintainer a month ago or so (at least bump the minimum required libming version).

Any word on bug #36008, is it fixed? It's pretty nasty for people running accounting and financially critical applications. // Tom

How is that a bug? Floating point values need to be sanitized before you do any sort of calculation with them or you will be magnifying any system-level imprecision. In that example he sanitized it by converting it to a string which isn't magic, it is just another way to truncate the imprecision. Any decent accounting/financial application should be working in integers (as in cents) and should never run into these issues. There is nothing we can do to fix this. -Rasmus
