I just released new version of Pake. Pake is a command line utility for executing predefined tasks, inspired by make. It is written in PHP and the tasks are also described in PHP. Pake can be used for compiling projects from different pieces, generating code, preprocessing templates and deploying projects. If you know Phing, then Pake is a . . . → Read More: Pake 1.4.0 is released There is a common misunderstanding, that mb_ereg_* functions are just unicode counterparts of ereg_* functions: slow and non-powerful. That’s as far from truth as it can be. . . . → Read More: ode to mb_ereg functions Ten years ago, today, on september 20, 1999 bug titled “DNS: RFC 2782 not supported (SRV records)” was submitted to Mozilla. Today, in 2009, bug has patch attached, but it is not committed and waits for approval. I doubt, that is the longest-living bug in mozilla, but, still, 10 years is a great age for a bug. Let’s party! XSLCache extension for PHP, originally developed by NYTimes started its second life in PECL’s repository and I am proud to announce first PECL-release. The XSL Cache extension is a modification of PHP’s standard XSL extension that caches the parsed XSL stylesheet representation between sessions for 2.5x boost in performance for sites that repeatedly apply the same transform. . . . → Read More: XSLCache in PECL Pake project wasn’t maintained for a while, so I decided to give it a spin (as there is a good chance, that I will be able to use it for my current projects). I imported it’s version history to GitHub. My plan is to add some generally usable helpers to current branch, write some documentation and then to start work on Pake2 which would use all new features of PHP-5.3 (namespaces, closures, rich SPL). . . . → Read More: Pake: PHP project build system I recently created a small library for working with twitterdata in PHP. Sources are available from GitHub. Twitter Data is a simple, open, semi-structured format for embedding machine-readable, yet human-friendly, data in Twitter messages. . . . → Read More: work with TwitterData in PHP Just notifying all interested parties, that my “Application Server in PHP” and “MySQL Query Builder” projects are moved to GitHub.

PHP-FPM project is officially BSD-licensed now and has good chances to become a part of official PHP distribution. . . . → Read More: PHP-FPM is BSD-licensed now It’s been a while since I posted anything here. Life was keeping me busy Today, I am glad to announce the release of my new product: Chronograph. Chronograph is one of those tools, that I wrote for myself, because everything else out there felt like nonsense. Either too complicated, or too ugly. Anyway, Chronograph — . . . → Read More: Chronograph The concept of headers in C was necessary at its time, but these days it just makes compilation of complex program in complex environment several times more complex. Whenever you have several package-roots (I have /usr, /usr/local, /sw, /opt/local, /opt/some_pkg1, /opt/some_pkg2 at the same time), which have different versions of the same libraries, you need to . . . → Read More: C, headers |
