Octal integers can now use an explicit
0o/0O
prefix in integer literals,
similarly to binary and hexadecimal integer literals.
<?php
014; // Non-prefix octal literal
0o14; // Prefixed octal literal
?>Added support for array unpacking with strings keys.
<?php
$arr1 = [1, 'a' => 'b'];
$arr2 = [...$arr1, 'c' => 'd']; //[1, 'a' => 'b', 'c' => 'd']
?>It is now possible to specify named arguments after an argument unpack. e.g. foo(...$args, named: $arg).
File uploads now provide an additional full_path key,
which contains the full path (rather than just the basename) of the uploaded file.
This is intended for use in conjunction with "upload webkitdirectory".
Support for Enumerations has been added.
Support for Fibers has been added.
Closures for callables can now be created using the syntax myFunc(...),
which is identical to Closure::fromCallable('myFunc').
Зауваження: The
...is part of the syntax, and not an omission.
Support for intersection types has been added.
Intersection types cannot be used together with union types
A new return only type never has been added. This indicates that a function either exit(), throws an exception, or doesn't terminate.
new in Initializers
It is now possible to use new ClassName() expressions as the
default value of a parameter, static variable, global constant initializers,
and as attribute arguments.
Objects can also be passed to define() now.
Support for readonly has been added.
Added support for the final modifier for class constants. Also, interface constants become overridable by default.
Added the CURLOPT_DOH_URL option.
Added options for blob certificate when libcurl >= 7.71.0:
CURLOPT_ISSUERCERT_BLOB
CURLOPT_PROXY_ISSUERCERT
CURLOPT_PROXY_ISSUERCERT_BLOB
CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLCERT_BLOB
CURLOPT_PROXY_SSLKEY_BLOB
CURLOPT_SSLCERT_BLOB
CURLOPT_SSLKEY_BLOB
Added CURLStringFile, which can be used to post a file from a string rather than a file:
<?php
$file = new CURLStringFile($data, 'filename.txt', 'text/plain');
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, ['file' => $file]);
?>Added openmetrics status format. It can be used by Prometheus to fetch FPM metrics.
Added new pool option for the dynamic process manager called
pm.max_spawn_rate. It allows to start a number of children
at a faster rate when dynamic pm is selected.
The default value is 32 which was the previous
hard coded value.
Avif support is now available through imagecreatefromavif() and imageavif(), if libgd has been built with Avif support.
The following functions hash(),
hash_file(), and hash_init()
now support an additional optional options
argument, which can be used to pass algorithm specific data.
Added support for MurmurHash3 with streaming
support. The following variants are implemented:
The initial hash state can be passed through the seed
key in the options array, for example:
<?php
$h = hash("murmur3f", $data, options: ["seed" => 42]);
echo $h, "\n";
?>0
to the platform defined UINT_MAX, usually
4294967295.
Added support for xxHash.
The following variants are implemented:
The initial hash state can be passed through the seed
key in the options array, for example:
<?php
$h = hash("xxh3", $data, options: ["seed" => 42]);
echo $h, "\n";
?>secret
key in the options array, too:
<?php
$h = hash("xxh3", $data, options: ["secret" => "at least 136 bytes long secret here"]);
echo $h, "\n";
?>mysqli.local_infile_directoryThe mysqli.local_infile_directory INI directive has been added, which can be used to specify a directory from which files are allowed to be loaded. It is only meaningful if mysqli.allow_local_infile is not enabled, as all directories are allowed in that case.
It is now possible to bind parameters by passing them as an array to mysqli_stmt::execute(). All values will be bound as strings. Only list arrays are allowed. This new feature is not available when MySQLi is compiled with libmysqlclient.
<?php
$stmt = $mysqli->prepare('INSERT INTO users(id, name) VALUES(?,?)');
$stmt->execute([1, $username]);
?>
mysqli_result::fetch_column()
has been added to allow fetching a single scalar value from the result set.
The new method accepts an optional 0-based column
parameter of type int specifying which column to fetch from.
<?php
$result = $mysqli->query('SELECT username FROM users WHERE id = 123');
echo $result->fetch_column();
?>
The PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_LOCAL_INFILE_DIRECTORY attribute
has been added, which can be used to specify a directory from which files
are allowed to be loaded.
It is only meaningful if PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_LOCAL_INFILE
is not enabled, as all directories are allowed in that case.
SQLite's "file:" DSN syntax is now supported,
which allows specifying additional flags.
This feature is not available if open_basedir is set.
<?php
new PDO('sqlite:file:path/to/sqlite.db?mode=ro')
?>
Added POSIX_RLIMIT_KQUEUES and POSIX_RLIMIT_NPTS.
These rlimits are only available on FreeBSD.
fputcsv() now accepts a new
eol argument which allows to define a custom
End of Line sequence, the default remains the same and is "\n".
SplFileObject::fputcsv() now accepts a new
eol argument which allows to define a custom
End of Line sequence, the default remains the same and is "\n".
