I'd kind of agree with this. I use both the apache SAPI module and the CLI side by side in a single system (the web server does it's thing, and the CLI powers the search engine, which the web server can use on a per-request basis and ties the two together with XML/XSLT). One of the problems I had when playing around with PHP-4.2.0dev (I believe, it might have been 4.3dev) was that the CLI was built by default, yet I use very different set ups for the apache module and the CLI module. There are a lot of extensions that aren't shared between the two, and it basically meant compiling the CLI twice -- once when I built the apache module and again to get the CLI executable I needed.
I'd also like to see that automatic "-q" header hiding and, as has been discussed before, a separation of the web server's php.ini file and the CLI's, as I always have trouble with the two. (For instance, in the apache module, I always have output buffering set to something liek 4K, but on the CLI, I don't want output buffering at all. Little things like that.) My opinion, for all it's worth. J Markus Fischer wrote: > > Actually, I think that would be a good idea to remove it. Do > not release something which is not completely well thought > and finished.
