PHP 4 end of life

Rate this Message:
PHP.net has announced the end of support for PHP 4.
http://www.php.net/ We are unable to fully commit to PHP 5 at the university. I am wondering however how the community feels about discontinuing support for PHP 4 in phpWebSite 1.x. This would not happen anytime soon but I believe we should consider a timeline. What do you think?

From a commercial standpoint as a hosting company, I don't see how
I'll be supporting PHP4 much past the end of the year when main development ends and as such I've been asking some of my larger customers to make sure their applications are ready for PHP5. I've a spare testing server now and I've been gradually moving people. I'd think that most hosting companies would be of a similar thinking rather than waiting for next August when security fixes stop. I've maybe a dozen sites on phpWebSite 0.10.2 still which I'm gradually moving on to 0.11 (which is php5 compatible as far as my testing has gone). Most rely on phpWebSite 0.x features and modules so they aren't moving to 1.x. I should really pick up development pace on that but other projects are taking precedence. I think it would be safe to make phpWebSite 1.x PHP5 only personally and I'd imagine the cleaner object model would make developing for it a lot easier. Recently I was looking through other php frameworks (CodeIgniter, Zend and Symfony) and came to the conclusion that php4 support just wasn't worth it. I ended up with Symfony btw for that project. http://www.symfony-project.com On 22 Aug 2007, at 13:57, matt wrote: > PHP.net has announced the end of support for PHP 4. > > http://www.php.net/ > > We are unable to fully commit to PHP 5 at the university.

I pretty much echo what Shaun says. My main server will be php4 for a
while yet, but I'm not waiting til next August to migrate to php 5. It will be gradual this winter. I have a lot more 0.10.x sites to contend with (mostly heavily customized) and even a few 0.8.x sites. I may keep a php4 server up for a little while longer, for a few clients who refuse to upgrade and realize they will be moved to an unsupported obsolete server. verdon On 22-Aug-07, at 9:32 AM, Shaun Murray wrote: > From a commercial standpoint as a hosting company, I don't see how > I'll be supporting PHP4 much past the end of the year when main > development ends and as such I've been asking some of my larger > customers to make sure their applications are ready for PHP5.
