G'day list. Just a quick update on the GEOS PHP bindings. I took some time last night to take a look at PHP 7 and did a quick migration to their new API. I'm able to compile cleanly and some of the tests are running, although I need to sort through the individual methods and clean up some bits and pieces here and there. Most of the pain at this point involves changes to the way PHP 7 manages memory and moving over to new data types like zend_string where it makes sense. It's definitely a decent start, even if it's a bit rough at the moment. Once I get everything stabilized I'll look into abstracting some of the changes away into some macros and the like so that both PHP 5 and 7 can compile from the same code base, as right now I've torn things apart for the sake of getting to know PHP 7 a bit better. The major hang up at the moment is the new memory management system, as I'm experiencing segfaults at process shutdown and with garbage collection, but it's nothing that's insurmountable, just some basic refactoring and rejiggering that's necessary. I'll have some more time available soon to try and wrap up a first pass, after which the abstractions will come in.
Cheers, list.
